deboratibi Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 I was going to suggest the blue bow, since you can get it at the Money Tree! But it's good that you already have it Anyway, a few suggestions: Not the most interesting solution, but a simple one: Basic White Shirt I don't know if you've considered these, or if you think they're "too white" (Lacy Gnorbu Dress and White Faux Fur Coat) Punkish Short Dress? Fancy Pink Gown? Sky Line Skirt with = Basic White Shirt / Wool Gnorbu Cardigan / School Girl Jumper In case you like green: Sprin Green Chiffon Blouse + Spring Green Ruffle Skirt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jellysundae Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 It's a shame that that Lacy Gnorbu Dress can't be worn tucked into the skirt Yuiina already has! That would look very pretty as a top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yuiina Posted June 18, 2017 Author Share Posted June 18, 2017 Sorry that I answered so late, work has been crazy lately. @deboratibi thank you for your lovely suggestions I think that the first one is a very good solution according to the wide options NP customization brings The white dresses make her way too white for my taste, as you said yourself. The blue skirt is very beautiful as well! I may switch with the shell's one from time to time.

Yuiina Posted July 3, 2017 Author Share Posted July 3, 2017 I know I will double post but it is needed. I'm back! I have many things I'd like to discuss with you because ... I'm very indecisive and afraid to do something that will give me prejudice so I'll be using this thread a lot ahah So today I'll ask you to help me with petpets! I'm looking for a petpet for my Staralay These are my choices but I'm open to new ones and a color for Maya's Weewoo I'm also open to other petpet's ideas, as long as they're birds, and also other colors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jellysundae Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Oh gosh, the plushie Hasee The blue feepit would compliment the hair bow beautifully. Coordinating your pet to your outfit, how VERY 21st century, dahling! I like the yellow Weewoo because it looks like a little chick, but I like the white one best because of the nice contrast of the beak and wings with the feathers. This would be kind of perfect for Staralay, lol I like the Beekadoodle but it doesn't have the cuddly vibe that Maya has. As an aside, look how fat the Birthday kad looks...'cause it's eaten all the cake? xD Not suggesting this guy, it's just cool! Captive Shadow Wraith... I've just decided that I need to go back to zapping a petpet, until i get one of THESE! Though the ultimate aim HAS to be...POTATO ROCK! Yeah I'm not helping with your petpet choices AT. ALL. here, am I?! Yuiina 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yuiina Posted July 4, 2017 Author Share Posted July 4, 2017 I'm having a hard time solving these xD So your post helped me to relax a bit ahah The Cirrus is a nice concept but I just don't think they "fit". That petpet has a strange animation unfortunately All the others you showed me are very funny ones indeed xD jellysundae 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zephyr Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 This thread is an oasis! None of my outfits have been feeling right so I'm sure I have a ton of things to ask later.

May I also suggest the Polarchuck and Christmas Slorg: I think their color scheme (& cuddliness) would go well with Staralay too As for Maya, I did some searching and realized that there are not a lot of bird petpets in Neopia I would have suggested the Alabriss except it's not a bird so I'd go with the White Weewoo. It's very elegant :) I has wings too & can fly!! Yuiina 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The slorg is very very cute The Alabriss looks like he's angry so I don't like it as much. I think I'll go for Feepit and White Weewoo. Thank you for your reply Zephyr!

Just call me Zeph Those are great choices! I bet your pets will be very happy with their new companions! This has left me stumped: I love the background but the foreground is so bare.

This has left me stumped: I love the background but the foreground is so bare. The more I look at it, the more bare the whole setup becomes >_> Help! Hmm! I'm going to try and help out here. What's your pet's name? I don't know what the items you've got equipped are so it's hard to recreate the look. Ah, I've found all the things, right! *cracks knuckles* Let's see if I can get anywhere, lol. I'm intrigued by the challenge of finding items that look good with the grey background you see. Whether I'm up to the challenge or not remains to be seen, PARTICULARLY as my brain isn't paying attention AT. ALL. and is doing things like, "hey, look how ridiculously cute the Zafara looks in this Candy Floss Swirl wig!" I'm not denying she looks cute, brain, but that's not what we're meant to be doin' here! lol. SO...Antique Chic Christmas Foreground. Not particularly right for the setting, just chosen because the soft muted shades used work beautifully with the background, two of the cushions even compliment the dress colour! I'm afraid that the vast majority of what's on offer is going to be too bold in colour to look right with the background. I'm giving you the chance to prove me wrong here, items, so step up, plz! The candles from the NC Mall cupcake look just right in this setting. Plus they're free! Candlelit Opera Stage Foreground turns the space into a balcony which is kind of nice. Though that's a big slab of warm colour at the bottom there that could do with balancing out at the top, but it does frame the base nicely. Carved Wooden Vanity Table turns it into the more austere and intimidating bedroom ever, lol. Zephyr, deboratibi and Scoobert_Doo 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deboratibi Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Antique Chic Christmas Foreground is a beautiful item, and is very sought after, so it's currently worth somewhere between 15-20 caps, according to /~korolie If you have it/can obtain it, it's a great option. But if not, I have some other suggestions: I agree with Jelly that Black & White Candle Stick Foreground is an interesting option, and paired with Pretty Mirror with Faerie Lights (~1-2 caps) you can *vaguely* recreate that Antique Chic Christmas Foreground atmosphere. I included Gold Yooyu-Inspired Stringlights (~1-2) for some extra flair, but the outfit works just as well without it. A slightly more expensive outfit: Birthday Ball Chandelier Garland (~3-4) and Dusty Grey Bouquet Box (~2-3) You might also like Lighted Columns Foreground (~1-2) or the NP version, Altador Pillars Foreground (~4,500 NP) Speaking of NP items, there's also Beautiful Columns Foreground (~4,000 NP). And finally, if you're not too attached to the background you're currently using, maybe you'll like Negg Museum (also an NP item, ~5,000 NP. If you participated in the Negg Festival you might already have it). It's also a hall-type background with columns, and I think the wall and floor colours compliment her dress nicely! And there's enough going on so you don't have to worry about including extra stuff. I hope you liked some of these! Of course, you can also mix and match the items I mentioned and come up with a better combination. Edit: I forgot to mention I used Fire Faerie Eye Shadow (~2,500 NP) in all of these! Even though her hair covers most of it, I still think it's a nice touch. jellysundae, Scoobert_Doo and Zephyr 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jellysundae Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Looking through all the foreground options again reminded me once more of how supremely weird a great deal of those items are...got to wonder what on earth the artists were thinking with so many of them, particularly some of the garlands. And even when the idea isn't truly bizarre the execution/animation's often pretty woeful. Neo would make so much more money if more of their items were much more useable.

The candles from the NC Mall cupcake look just right in this setting. Plus they're free! She's Peri; I created her mainly because I like the Christmas Zafara's color scheme and that halo. I had planned for her to be a lady who swishes about in grand and sombre halls and such. Welllll.... that didn't work out as I couldn't make the BG work so she's romping about in the forest instead lol Sorry I didn't indicate the name of the items used and whether they can be swapped out- that was thoughtless of me /facepalm That Candy Floss wig has totally distracted me me too and I'm saving it for reference and outfit ideas I LOVE those candles; most definitely will try them!

Thank you, you've provided me with lots of outfit ideas- Peri won't be bored, that's for sure The chandelier garland and bouquet box combo looks great- I'll be saving that on DTI :) I'll snag those NP items too. I missed the Negg Festival but that BG is full of beautiful, intricate details. I often try to pile as many items as possible (FG, garland, animations etc etc) but this works really well by itself. Tiny, hidden details FTW! I tend to do that too hee 12 hours ago, Yuiina said: Love your Zafara and totally understand the "empty" feeling you have Tell me what are you looking for? NC or NP or both?

I guess I'm thinking, "less is more". The mostly greyish background makes her really stand out. All the colors are on her, so she is the focus of attention. She's like Cinderella, walking into the Castle ballroom, where all eyes are on her and how beautiful she is. Nothing in the foreground or sides to distract. The colors of the dress, hair, and yellow pet markings, make her "pop" out. Anyhow, like I said, that's my take and not helpful, at all, especially from a horrible customizer.
