Hi !!

[Kaitlz]

Oh my gosh, I can't believe you had Agnes too! Those are some great villagers!

Louie was my other starter, and I didn't think I'd like jock villagers, but really he's fine. He's very sweet, and I don't know if different jocks have different dialogues, but Louie is actually lovely. The villagers I'm most attached to are Agnes, Louie and Patty (who I've loved since Pocket Camp), but I'm also pretty attached to Megan, Savannah and Rhonda too. I have a lot of normal and peppy villagers on my island, so I've been thinking of finding a cranky!

Do you have favourite personality types, or do you try to keep it even on your island (like one each or something)?

Oh you have a lot of villagers I haven't seen! Savannah looks really cool! My cranky villager is Octavian, and he's been really lovely despite what his scowl might make you think. I hope you find a cranky villager you like. Dobie is a really cute one!

I don't really have a favorite personality type, but I really think it's interesting to see how all the personalities interact with each other. So I've really been trying to keep it even, although it's hard with how unbalanced the personality types feel! I'm with you in that I'd instinctually go with mostly normal and peppy villagers.

Do you have a theme/aesthetic for your island or a goal for it?

Savannah's very sweet. She was supposed to be temporary, but I always find her singing around the island and it's really endearing! Octavian is cute, but I haven't had a chance to meet him yet.

I made my island just somewhere I sort of saw my villagers enjoy living, but no actual theme. People can be so creative with their islands, and it inspires me to think about resetting, but I just don't think I could start again!

What about you? Any goals or an island theme?

I'm still trying to figure that one out! It's so hard to commit to one theme. I only know that I want something natural-- lots of flowers, trees and bushes.

I'm also inspired by how creative other people get with their islands! Some of my friends have built beautiful cities with farmers markets and cafés. I've also seen really creative usages of custom designs! I tried making my own path once and I didn't realize just how many pattern slots that would take... Do you create custom designs? If so, do you have a favorite custom design you've made?

I make custom designs, but they're all very simple! I don't use any custom designs that I haven't made myself (I think it helps me to work harder on my island lol). Recently I've tried drawing a few things on my iPad, and then there are online tools you can use to convert your pictures into custom designs. I'm interested to see if I can make some more advanced designs this way!

How did making your path go? Have you tried making any other designs?

Ohh I haven't tried converting images to custom designs yet! I'll have to do that-- what's the name of the tool you use?

The path went well-- I ended up using 6 custom design slots for it though. It was just a simple scattered pebble path. I have experience in texture creation (I do 3D environment design) so it felt pretty straightforward! I have made other designs, mainly clothes, but I'd like to try making more custom paths as there aren't many options in-game.

Here's an image of the custom path as well as a dress I made a while back:

There's a few similar tools, but this is the one I use! After you convert your image file into a custom design, you save it as a new image and it will come with a QR code. You scan the QR code in the Nintendo Online app, then when you're next in game, you can go to your custom designs and there's a button to download it!

If you want to edit the image, you have to do it in the online tool, because it won't be editable once you've downloaded it into the game.

That dress is really cute, and the pebble path looks really good!

Oooh that's so useful!! Thanks for linking it and for the tips, I will definitely put it to use. And thank you!

Thank you!! It's nice to meet you too. And I have been enjoying it here, everyone is really nice!

Bertha is my favorite villager! I completely agree that she deserves way more love. I don't see much love for hippo villagers at all! Who is your favorite villager?

Those are all lovely villagers! I've been wanting Shino on my island as well, she really is gorgeous. I hope you find her easily when you do decide to get her on your island!
