Hey Jammers! I forgot to do the AJBR on Wednesday, so I'm doing it today!
Today's blog is...
...Animal Jam Sky Blog!
Quick Stats
Owner(s) : Scooter (chocolate4050)
Platform: Blogspot
Rate of Posting: Daily
Ratings
Activity: 5/5. Just like I said in my AJBR for "The Animal Jam Whip," I'm impressed by the fact that Scooter can remember to post daily!
Professional-ness: 4/5. Scooter seems to be very mature, but I'm taking off a star because some of the images look low-quality, and it looks like most of the widgets/themes/etc. are the default versions, which means Scooter might not have played around with them a lot. I might be wrong, though!
Organization: 4/5. The tabs categorize things nicely, but each post often contains a lot of categories all mashed up together. For example, on March 10th, the post talked about the new items for the day, the Mystery of the Week, and some Sky News.
Helpfulness: 5/5. Scooter posts about new items, mysteries, updates, Adventures, and more! It seems very helpful!
Advertisements: 4/5. I saw two ads, both for Paypal. I don't search for Paypal on the internet, so it's not based on my browsing history. They clashed with the color scheme, and distracted from the actual content of the site.
Supervision: 5/5. Like "The Animal Jam Whip," this blog is run by one person, so I understand that Scooter is unable to tightly moderate the comments. There are rules for commenting, but they are way at the bottom of the page. I'm awarding all five stars because everyone seems to be following the rules anyway.
Spelling/Grammar: 5/5. I don't see any spelling, capitalization, grammar, or punctuation errors! Great job, Scooter!
Variety: 5/5. It looks like Scooter posts different things on different days of the week - like "This Week" on Sunday, "Masterpiece of the Week" on Monday, "Mystery of the Week" on Friday, and "New Blu Issue" on Saturday, plus a lot more! The tabs on the top of the blog include "Epic Sky Dens," "Sky Art," "Sky Videos," and "Sky Hall of Fame."
Mood: 5/5. On the left side of the page, there's a small "Welcome" paragraph. Scooter says that the purpose of this blog is to "make your Animal Jam experience better." And in all of the posts, Scooter has a very welcoming and sweet attitude.
Look/Theme: 4/5. The background isn't cluttered, but I am taking off one star because of these two things: a) The text and images on the banner are low-resolution, and b) It's called the "Animal Jam SKY Blog," but the color scheme seems to be green. I don't know about you guys, but I personally get a bit irritated by that.

Icon Commissions!
Hey Jammers!
So I've decided to start making icons/logos for people!
So I've decided to start making icons/logos for people!
Here's one I made for myself:
And here's one I made for Shimmercolors' new Instagram account called @yanderewillkill:
They cost one den beta each!
If you'd like one, fill out the following and either comment it down below or DM it to me on Instagram!
1. What is it for - a blog logo, or a profile picture?
2. What is the name of the blog/account?
3. What are some small designs that are associated with your blog/account? (For example: I put stars and sparkles in mine, because I love stars; I put a grass block in @yanderewillkill's, because it's a Minecraft account.)
4. What 2-3 colors do you want the main scheme to be? (Rainbow is an option.)
5. If you want your OC or Animal Jam character on it, please DM or email me a picture.
6. Do you want it to be a circle or square? (Instagram profile pictures are circles, whereas some sites like Facebook use squares.)
7. What mood do you want it to have? (For example: Mine is quirky/happy, and @yanderewillkill's is dark/scary.)
8. What is your Animal Jam username and when is a good time to trade me the den beta (I'm a NM at the moment)?
Currently, I am only doing Animal Jam or Minecraft logos/profile pictures. Sorry!

Animal Jam Blog Review: "The Animal Jam Whip"
Hey Jammers! I'm going to be starting a series called Animal Jam Blog Review, or AJBR for short. Basically, every Wednesday, I'll review an Animal Jam blog. I will rate it on certain factors such as how active the owner is, if the blog looks good, the content, the spelling/grammar, etc.
Today's blog is....
...The Animal Jam Whip!
Quick Stats
Owner(s) : Nafaria9
Platform: Blogspot
Rate of Posting: Daily
Ratings
Activity: 5/5. Seeing as I forget to make a post on this blog for months at a time, it's honestly impressive that Nafaria can remember to post daily.
Professional-ness: 5/5. Her tone is positive and kind, yet sophisticated, and she clearly has dedication. She puts text expressions like ":D" and "^.^" every once in a while, but does not overuse them - which is surprising, because nowadays people use "XD" and "D:" and things like that wayyy too much. She also has her own logo - the Animal Jam logo, with a dollop of whipped cream and a cherry on top, and "WHIP" at an angle down below.
Organization: 4.5/5. The posts are organized nicely, her About Me text is over to the side, and the tabs at the top make it easy to navigate. The only reason that I didn't award this 5/5 is her email is at the very bottom. Usually, if you want people to be able to easily contact you, your email is at the top or on the side, so people can find it faster.
Helpfulness: 4.9/5. I took off one-tenth of a star because a lot of her posts - at least, right now - are just saying new items that came into the game that day. I would have taken off half of a star for that, but I do realize that it is helpful to know the newest items, especially when they're only available for one day - like the limited-edition spring ones in the diamond shop. Other than that, though, Nafaria gives fun facts, asks for your opinion, and shares her thoughts on current Animal Jam drama, so she does post really interesting content.
Advertisements: 5/5. I only saw one ad, and it was for Animal Jam. It's good that the blog isn't covered in annoying ads, because that would also make it laggy. By the way, it isn't laggy at all right now - at least, for me.
Supervision: 4/5. Since she runs this blog on her own, and doesn't have the time to tightly monitor the comments, there are no moderators. However, she does say "I expect all rules to be followed - those include no plagiarizing, bullying, swearing, etc." It's off to the side, in her About Me.
Spelling/Grammar: 5/5. I have not yet caught a mistake in mechanics - Nafaria knows the right "your/you're," doesn't mix up "there/their/they're," and uses apostrophes correctly! I'm very impressed! Her spelling/grammar skills are better than most adults'!
Variety: 5/5. There are 14 tabs at the top of the blog! Other than the "Home" tab and the "About" tab, there's "Crafts&Activities," "Ask Nafaria," "Comics," "Scrapbook," "Epic Dens," and a lot more - I won't tell you all of them; you'll have to check the blog out yourself.
Mood: 5/5. Nafaria is very helpful and welcoming, and her bright personality is certainly evident through her words! She starts each post with an enthusiastic greeting, and ends each post with a "Bye, Jammers!" of some sort.
Look/Theme: 4/5. It has a beige background with green stems/leaves all over it, which looks a bit cluttered. However, on one Animal Jam blog I saw today, the background was neon blue sparkly pattern, so it could definitely be a lot worse. She also has a banner at the top with the name of the blog, and the layout is organized nicely.

Number Grade: 94.8/100

Finding Gellyjones??
Hey all!
So yesterday I was on one of those creature-adoption sites (I won't tell you which because of privacy) and I saw that someone had the username "gellyjones." I was immediately curious, and I clicked on them. In their profile, they didn't say anything about Animal Jam, but I decided to send them mail anyway.
I said, "Do you play Animal Jam? There's an Animal Jam Youtuber called Gellyjones!"
Today, I checked my mail and found a response: "I do play Animal Jam!"
I am shocked and slightly amused, as it was a coincidence to find a fellow Jammer on this site. I sent a reply back, but she hasn't responded yet.
I won't tell you the name of the site because I don't know if she wants to be "found out." It is probably quite refreshing to be on this new site where she's not famous, when she's used to being swarmed on Animal Jam.
I will ask her if I can share the name of the site, and if she says I can, then I'll tell you. I just don't want to cause her any inconvenience, because then she will probably not like me and that would be terrible because I am a fan of her.
I have another post coming right after this!
