Welcome!
To the right is a fragment from the now ruined Dab freize- a rare image showing his first appearance on the internet, the last depiction of his true self before being converted to his internet form. (Sorry, got a bit bored).

Can you block the IP 65.93.164.185. If I have to undo his edits anymore time I'll scream! He's added spam and keeps undoing information which has relevance. Thanks, MerrytonRyan 23:15, 12 April 2009 (UTC)


 * I don't think I'll block them, as they are only trying to help. They've stopped now, haven't they? Anymore and I'll get rid of them. Dab 11:15, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

User:Dabtowner/userboxes
sorry I haven't had much time to design any mroe userboxes/template designs.

anyways, userboxes should be on this page: Animal Crossing City:Userboxes however, they should be in different categories. Eg: Animal Crossing City:Userboxes/tools I would advise that things such as favourite bug/ fish or favourite song should be in misc. -- J i  m t a  l  k ! 13:38, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
 * I've added them to the page! Dab 13:46, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

Ok, I'll add them into categories and formatt them into lists... -- J i  m t a  l  k ! 13:47, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Oops, I forgot about that, sorry! Dab 13:50, 13 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Ok, 2 categories are on the page. see Animal Crossing City:Userboxes/Misc for the layout of how they are presented.. I'll add more on there now.-- J i  m t a  l  k ! 13:57, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

I need help, I can't be making the misc category, the game play, past time and item at once. If you look at the Animal Crossing City:Userboxes page, I've written next to each one where it needs to go. Make one of the category pages, use the format from the /misc page, and try to help. please remember to delete each one after you're done, and add the link to the category. That's if you've got the time to help :p-- J i  m t a  l  k ! 14:07, 13 April 2009 (UTC)


 * firstly, I did post on the userboxes page that it needed to be deleted for a more flexible one.

secondly, Isn't first language the same as native language? (I have also found an amazing one from the Runescape wiki, which has over 10 languages, in the actual language, so I'm about to add that..) Thirdly, I'm guessing that it didn't save when ,y computer went down... I was chnaging all the 3 current language ones so they were all like a set; one shade different from each other. If you want to change it, just tell me the colouurs..Sorry if I caused any inconvenience..I forgot they were on your page..:S-- J i  m t a  l  k ! 15:08, 14 April 2009 (UTC)

User:Zilenserz/blog
No idea why i'm telling you, but I've decided to do my blog on the wiki. (I hate livejournal...). I thought I'd use some pictures of the sky at different times of the day as the top header, and the sidebar will match the colour of the sky. Does the wiki actually ahve any images of the sky at different times? (I'm pretty sure I saw some of your work for it...) I'm hoping that the pics won't have the clock thing up, as that is what generally stops me taking pics of the sky... (what's the point of taking a picture of some amazing constelations if the brightest one is hidden by the clock..) anyways, watch this space! (Of the blog page of course, otherwise the entire /blog design is useless... :p)-- J i  m t a  l  k ! 17:55, 16 April 2009 (UTC)

To remove the clock, you can hold down the 'b' button, as long as you don't pick anything up when you do it. It took my ages to work that out! I'm going to do the 'day' image again, on a more varied day. Dab 16:06, 17 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Yes! Scum of Astronomy is officially eliminated! (I LOOOOOVE astronomy on Animal Crossing), we should totally have a guild of astronomers...-- J i  m t a  l  k ! 16:14, 17 April 2009 (UTC)


 * I've named all my constellations after key players in the life of Alexander the Great... Dab 16:19, 17 April 2009 (UTC)


 * WOW! That's a good idea, theme.... I was currently designing them using latin/Greek words (Or even words that sounded latin..) I was hoping to eventually have 12 reall good designs, each with their brightest day in a different month, so that I could have the 'Shire Calander' So far, I'm up to April (starting with december.) (Although It would be known as the Month Angelicum) I'm trying to design a kind of lore to go with it, as well. Also, what say you to the possibility of a painting being designed into designs? (I could try to do it in quarter (no idea how to spell that...) pieces, so 4 designs stuck together makes it look like the painting.. Do you think it's worth me trying?-- J  i  m t a  l  k ! 16:37, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

That would be very hard to do, but I'm sure you could do it if you think you can! What picture are you thinking of doing? Dab 16:45, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

Unfortunately I only have two pictures in the museum so far. ( I started collecting them yesterday, I haven't checked Redd's in the month I've been playing..) However, If you have Flowery Painting (sunflowers) or Famous Painting (Mona Lisa), they are 2 of my favourite 3 (forgot name of other 1..), could you mayby take a pic of them in ure museum and post on here (I reckon both pages would like a pic..), preferably at the straight angle, so I don't have to work on distortion too much...-- J  i  m t a  l  k ! 16:50, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

No I'm afraid I don't have them, but you could always go here... Unless you specifically want the Animal Crossing version (which is practically the same). Dab 16:52, 17 April 2009 (UTC)


 * I remembered my actual favourite painting (the one i was forgetting..) It is Liberty Leading the People. Anyways, I've managed to down-size and crop a 1400x1100 px image to a 96x96 px image... That will take up 9 design spaces, so Out of the 3 characters I'll control I'll have 6 actual spaces with which to design things on in total.. (1 guy is a 'building contracter, who lays out my paths, taking up 9 spaces also.) thos enumbers do make sense, I hope.. See any flaws in the plan, before I start?-- J i  m t a  l  k ! 17:14, 17 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Nope, sounds fine. Dab 17:20, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

ok, I've got 2 possible paintings, Either the afore mentioned 'Liberty Leading the People' or 'The Forge' by James Sharples (The image comes up without the anme of the painter for the first :p) I may well need to upload them to photobucket and show you them, I'll be doing the clearer image of the 2. (Probably The Forge..)-- J i  m t a  l  k ! 18:20, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

You can see Liberty Leading the People here! I'd encourage you to do some Painting pages- you sound quite enthusiastic about them. Dab 18:14, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

Spam
Will you pleae block this user for spamming Yowuza's talk and creating 'SPaM'? Thanks, Dragonfree 9 7  10:44, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

I've blocked them for two weeks now. Dab 16:18, 17 April 2009 (UTC)
 * He spammed mine because of the sig in the auto-welcome. I lol'd when I saw what he put. --YOWUZA TALK 2 ME! 17:23, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

Lookin' Good!
Hey, Dab! This Wiki is looking better than ever! It's not usual that I go away for so long and return to a Wiki to find it better than I left it. :) You and the other active users are doing awesome work! Just wanted to say "wow" about Purrl's page.  That is fantastic that we're getting house designs.  I wish emulating and hacking Animal Crossing was a more prominent phenomenon, then maybe someone would have all this information readily available... oh, well. :D It's looking great!  On a completely unrelated note,  Dragonfree dropped me a note here - apparently you blocked him and he doesn't know why... so if you could give him a response that would be great. :) I checked the block log though and it looks like he's unblocked... not really sure what's going on. Maybe one of these days I'll be able to help this Wiki more... it'd be fun! Stumpers 18:13, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

Oops, I don't know what happened there, I must have blocked someone with the same IP address... Good to see you around here, and thanks for the compliments! It would be good if you were around to help with the hacking stuff, I'm not interested in that aspect of things. Dab 19:34, 17 April 2009 (UTC)

Dragonfree97
I got a message from Dragonfree97 saying he's blocked from accessing this Wikia. Are you aware of this Dab? Thanks, MerrytonRyan 18:15, 17 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Edit: Seems like Stumpers got a message too... MerrytonRyan 18:16, 17 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Thanks for unblocking me! How come I got blocked anyway? Dragonfree 9 7  20:04, 17 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Unfortunately, you shared an IP address with another user who was blocked for spamming! He's still blocked, so everything should be fine from now on. So sorry about that! Dab 11:29, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

NookClubPenguin here! Hey,thanks for the welcome, buddy! BYE!

Hello!
Thanks for the welcome, I'm a big Animal Crossing fan and I'm happy to help tidy up an pages that need it. :D Earisu 23:35, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

No problem (it's automated)! But yes, here I am for real! I look foward to seeing your contributions- It's super to have even the slightest help around here. Dab 16:32, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

Spam
Dab, will you please block the user who vandalized the FishyBuggyHQ. Thanks! See ya, Dragonfree 9 7  Or maybe talk to me later, or now? 12:16, 24 April 2009 (UTC)


 * They've been blocked for two weeks. What an odd comment they made... Dab 16:32, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

Hi there!
I created the page Yellow Perch, but I am not sure about all the information about it. Are you? HeadOverHeels6 21:22, 24 April 2009 (UTC)


 * That looks quite good! I'm sure the fish members of the fishybuggy team will verify it gladly. Dab 16:31, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

Question
In ACCF, are the villager pictures still available?

Uploaded image Plesiosaur.jpg for the Animal Crossing fossil page but I don't exactly know what I am doing is there a help section?

weirdave


 * I don't think that any official images of new villagers were released for City Folk, but it would appear that some people have created their own. Plenty of help can be found in the 'help' section on the left. Dab 16:30, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the welcome!
Hey Dabtowner! Thanks for the welcome! It made me feel at home in Animal Crossing City already! I appreciate it!--GameLord 08 20:01, 28 April 2009 (UTC) GameLord 08

Thank you :). I have a question [well I have more but for now this one's totally important]:
 * I think I made my Animal Crossings page in the help section of the wikia. Do you know how to delete it? :(

Will I be in trouble? I hope they don't delete me for my stupid boo-boo. Sorry.

Hop-MJ:Hop-MJ 18:59, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Nope, everything seems to be fine- you've written on your user page. You can do anything you like with that page, as long as its not offensive! I'm really glad you like this site, by the way. Dab 19:08, 3 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Oh, and if anyone's going to delete you (which probably won't happen), it'll be either Yowuza or myself- we're the only people here who have the authority to do that. Dab 19:15, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Furni
Hi, it's Jim, fellow member of the furni project. Do you know the complete list of items for :the japanese set and the public bath set? Also, what floor/wall set should be used for each? I'm considering the 'planked tatami' floor for the japanese set, but don't know the matching wallpaper name...-- J i  m t a  l  k ! 10:40, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

I'm afraid I don't know the full set, but I'm sure it can be found on one of the pages that fleurione's user page links to. Sets don't necessarily have corresponding walls and floors- there are three Japanese walls I can think of- the Modern Screen, the Gold Screen and the Tea Room Wall. Dab 11:10, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Ay, I know, it was more of putting suggested wall(s)/floor(s) sets up... I'm trying toi work out which of those 3 walls goes with the tatami, I want the extra few points...-- J i  m t a  l  k ! 11:15, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

P.S. Just got the famous painting from Redd, if it's real I'll post some pics of it in the museum, then have a go at starting some of the other painting pages... Nice mii userbox btw, do you want to open an official Userbox project with me? It'd mean that everyone could have a go, and we could choose colours/ colour schemes together...-- J i  m t a  l  k ! 11:18, 4 May 2009 (UTC)


 * I think perhaps a small page that has each userbox going through a set of criteria- We can have sections for requests, colours, pictures and writing, with people there reaching an agreement on each area before it goes onto the next 'area', like a factory line. Dab 11:22, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
 * sounds good, I'll open it in 5 mins, putting my Gracie room togather... What domain do we use?? (eg: animal crossing city?)-- J i  m t a  l  k ! 11:28, 4 May 2009 (UTC)


 * It would certainly be best it it was on this site- go to the forums, that's where the other projects are found. Dab 11:45, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Love It!
I totally give you props for the genealogy tree of your ancestors. Totally cool. I so truly want to make one now. :) And it's so darn cute, too! --- Hop-MJ 15:51, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

It was just a bit of fun! I didn't want to waste money on costumes, so I just used stuff I had in my drawers. The same goes for locations- I wanted to do a sort of victorian library, but I'm trying to pay off my last mortgage. I'd encourage you to do one, it lets people know what sort of person you are!Dab 16:07, 4 May 2009 (UTC)


 * What do you mean by Victorian library? That sounds cool, If you tell me what you're going for, I'll have a go... I love the new family tree, btw!-- J i  m t a  l  k ! 16:19, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Thanks again! Well, I was thinking of some classic furniture, library wall, tartan rug & fireplace for the background of Edgare and Mrs Flopp- Nothing special. Dab 16:22, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
 * oh, kk... I'm currently working out all my houses (3/4, 1s my siss'es..), I love my gracie set for my main house basement, the main room will have to be Feng shui, but other than that, I'm thinking of the public bath set, Japanese set, a study (probs using mainly classical furni), a music room and maybe some other sets/themes... (Kinda off topic, but ah well..-- J i  m t a  l  k ! 16:37, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Downloadable Content
Is there a page for DLCs such as the DSi, bus, hats and so on? If not, what would be an appropriate name? It really should be added as it is a unique feature with City Folk, yet there isn't a good name for it! Thanks, MerrytonRyan 22:09, 5 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Downloadable Content, perhaps. I think we need 'Animal Crossing in Other Media' and 'Other Media in Animal Crossing' pages. Dab 16:45, 6 May 2009 (UTC)


 * I suppose it depends how much Nintendo send out in their letters. If there's alot sent out, then a page just for letters from Nintendo with gifts would be a wiser idea. But if not, a page dedicated to other Media would be a better option. Though at the moment there does appear to be more reason just for the one page dedicated - there's alot to write about :P MerrytonRyan 13:29, 7 May 2009 (UTC)


 * What other media is there about Animal Crossing? See ya, Dragonfree 9 7  Or maybe talk to me later, or now? 16:26, 7 May 2009 (UTC)


 * On the Wii website it says they're called Scheduled Deliveries. What would be a more appropriate name... Downloadable Content isn't really a good name, considering you have no control over what you download, and Scheduled Deliveries doesn't sound or look very nice. How about Nintendo Deliveries? Or is that equally as bad? :P MerrytonRyan 21:23, 7 May 2009 (UTC)


 * EDIT: What about Distributed Items? Any other names for it could be redirected :) Also, what do you suggest as a good floor and wallpaper to take pictures of items with? MerrytonRyan 21:38, 7 May 2009 (UTC)


 * I agree with distributed items.


 * Thanks Dragonfree :) I'll get making the page as soon as I get back from shopping. I've snapped the items as they appear in the catalog MerrytonRyan 12:51, 8 May 2009 (UTC)


 * What other media is there about Animal Crossing? See ya, Dragonfree 9 7  Or maybe talk to me later, or now? 16:26, 7 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Any nice floor, perhaps varied for extra pleasantness. When I said 'in other media' and 'other meadia in' I was talking about references to other Nintendo games in Animal Crossing, and vice versa. I think the SSB series is the only game to have Animal Crossing references, other than a postman in the legend of Zelda games, who asks not to be shot down with a slingshot (apparently). See Pete. Dab 15:32, 8 May 2009 (UTC)


 * If you mean the guy in Phantom Hourglass, then yes, that was a minor reference. Anyway...

Minor Glitch
Have a look at this. Look at the timestamp. Eh? Also, try and find the other thing wrong with this. I'll make you a medal if you can find it. See ya, Dragonfree 9 7  Or maybe talk to me later, or now? 19:43, 8 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Ha, I beat you! I got -3 seconds once! Hmm... is it that Mint isn't wearing a gumdrop shirt? Or that for some reason, a main-page message appears on the top of the Mint page? Away from the subject, I went on this site in the library and it looked very different. On my laptop, the side is blue, I have no adverts, only blank spaces, and none of the main options have scrolly-out things. I think my laptop must be dysfunctional. Dab 19:49, 8 May 2009 (UTC)


 * I haven't noticed any of those, but no, it isnt. Anyway, I got -4 seconds on the school comupters. It's close to the gumdrop shirt. Keep trying! See ya, Dragonfree 9 7  Or maybe talk to me later, or now? 19:02, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
