Best Places to Advertise in Jamaa + Wild Contest Entry!

haii everyone!

bit of a rushed post today, sorry bout that!

2 things before i start with the main part of this post: 

Vai took about a month long break a little bit ago, but she's returning to posting soon, in case anyone was wondering c: 

secondly: here's my contest entry, Wild! i'm so sorry, this is probably the worst art piece i've ever done DX i'd had it half done about a week ago and kept holding it off and changing it because i didn't like how it looked. i hope it's ok, though!

i thought it looked ok in Pixlr, but now that i'm looking at it again, i hate it. pretty simple background, simple characters, basically simple everything. 

que "when you try your best but you don't succeed"..

ANYWAYS-

today i thought it would be fun to make a post about some good spots to advertise in Jamaa! i personally struggle a lot with this, so i hope this helps you if you have a similar struggle as me c:

before i start, i want to just jot down a place i really hate advertising in/seeing people advertise in. 

Trading Parties - i'm going to be honest, i think trading parties are some of the worst places to advertise, especially if you're advertising shops. i personally get annoyed when people advertise at trading parties.. the ideal goal is to trade, and a big pet peeve of mine is when i join a nicely filled party and then SOMEONE comes in and is like, "spikes and more for sale in my den!" and everyone leaves. GAH. for some reason, whenever i see the publicity that people get from advertising in trading parties and decide to do it myself, people start yelling at me and are all like, "get out of here, go back to Jamaa Township." 

so either animal jam hates me or no one likes my shops 😃 

uh, that rant was longer than expected, oops. heh heh, let's get started!

ALDAN

Jamaa Township - honestly, almost everywhere you go in Aldan you'll find a full land. but i think we all know that Jamaa Township Aldan is one of the busiest, fullest, and bestest (making up words today <3) places to trade. (it's also great if you want to witness some pretty WEIRD conversations o.o) 

Coral Canyons - now Coral Canyons Aldan is a pretty good place to advertise, because there's usually a big crowd next to the waterfall. the downside of CCA is the (situation??) there. it's usually filled with the really rare traders, and not many of them are looking to shop. it's still a very crowded place, so you may catch a couple jammers looking to buy!

MISC. PLACES

Pillow Room - the Pillow Room is located in Jamaa Township (next to the arcade) and is known for it's adopting/family roleplays. never the less, whenever i've been to the Pillow Room it's always PACKED and people don't usually yell at you..

Captain Melville's Juice Hut - CMJH (i didn't feel like typing it out, and i don't care that i could've used copy and past o.O) is a smoothie-themed place in Crystal Sands, and is similar to the Pillow Room. i like it more, because it's less hectic and more of a chill place. *flashback to when i tried to make it a rock lounge* 

oops, uh, how did that get there

PFFT

oh wait, i forgot we had a RIM today! 

ehh, it's ok? 

it most definetly isn't my.. sTyLe, but the colors are ok? i don't know, comment what you think C:

anyways, that will wrap up this post! i hope you have a GREAT rest of your day/evening/night, and stay tuned for a future post!

toodles!
