A Day in the life of Catmid

Hello fellow PICOfreaks! This post is about a simple workday of the Catmid. There will probably more posts to follow. Including more Halloween WISH outfits and etc. So busy with work that it deserves it's own post! haha!

Catmid is sooo busy lately! Especially with her new job.
In the morning she gets up from her sleep and is greeted by Ichigo, her pet puppy!

"Urr, Ichigo! I don't want to get up!!" *grumble into pillow*



Then I go to my closet and decide what to wear.

"Oh what to wear Ichigo?!?!? So many things to choose from?"
Ichigo is also my stylist. Today I suppose she isn't interested till she gets her food.



"Today I will wear this. Am I not cute?" *Squee*


Since Ichigo is such a patient pup I immediately give her some delicious biscuits. She only gets the best! Handmade, in a special bowl and with lots of praise. GOOD ICHI!!! :D




Normally I then make sure my face is on straight. Well you know, no eye crusties or boogies that may
embarass me later! haha XD I hate it when people don't tell me if there is something in my hair or in
my teeth too. Right?!?!?


Time to clean! It is always important to maintain a clean house and home. Your pets and friends will appreciate it. Especially when family visits. They like to know you are doing alright and they don't need to worry about you. haha!!!


Of course you gotta start your day right with some waffles. Mmm... waffelishous! Usually I wouldn't have time to make waffles, so I make some ahead of time, freeze them, and pop them in the toaster when I want a quick bite.

YUM!


OFF TO WORK!



Time for work. And work... and MORE WORK!
It's not very interesting as you can see. Lots of art to do!



Of course at the end of a long long long day... I like to relax in a comfy bath.

(bath is borrowed from the display room... haha!!!)


After relaxing I always try to end the day with fellow PICOfreaks on PICO



Haha! Well I hope you got some insight on my life. It's tough being away from such a fun game, but it is all worth it at the end of the day.

Thanks for reading and have FANTASTIC PICO ADVENTURES!!!

The Amazing Nono!

Hello fellow PICOfreaks! Today I'd like to re-introduce my little black cat, Nono. Also the resident Party Cat! She likes to party, she likes to make friends, but most importantly, she likes to surprise me with new tricks!

Recently she has obtained two new buttons, Handstand and Backflip. Since PICO doesn't have a HOW TO on your pets, I am always surprised with she learns a new one.

If you want a quick overview of what a Pet Profiles contain, here ya go:
1. Name: Nono
2. Image of pet with short descritption: Black Cat, "Party Cat"
3. Personality- What your pet is like: Social, Clever
4. Gender: Tells you if your cat is a boy or a girl
5. Mood: Depending on the notes, it tells you how happy your pet is. Mine is content. :D
6. Relation: There is a debate on what this means. For me I think it is the number of days you have had your pet. Now, depending on the days, there are milestones where your pet learns new tricks. I don't remember the numbers exactly, but they happen at ODD numbers. Like 3, 17, 63, 73, and etc.

The buttons for the CAT are as follows (So Far!)
Pet - You can pet your pet!
Lift Up -You can pick up your pet.
Paw- The pet gives you their paw to hold
Sit- The pet sits in front of you.
Stand- The pet stands.
Wave- The pet waves.
Cattail- You play with your pet with a Cattail toy.
Handstand- Your pet does a hand stand with its front paws.
Backflip- Your pet does a backflip just like you!

I hope this encourages you to play with your pets more. Keep watching for updates on pandas, turtles, puppies and so much more!

Thanks for reading and have FANTASTIC PICOpet adventures!

Shout Out: Catmid VIP!

Hey all! Just wanted to give a shout out to some more special PICOfriends who have become such lovely people to talk to! These are PICOfriends I've met exclusively through PICO and not through any other hobby. (Just in case you are one of my Blythe friends, I'm not ignoring you or anything) ;D

With these PICOfriends, we chat about PICO, work, friends, family and etc. Or we just have fun doing things in my home. There are also times we're all working at our day jobs and playing PICO at the same time.

CRAZY but true! :D


MARUKO

Maruko is such a sweet person! We have fun playing with our pets, sharing food or just being silly. I love it when she visits or if I see her at her home. We like to take advantage of the special events. Sometimes she likes to give me the inside scoop on things that happen on PIGG. WOO! What a wise PICOfriend. haha! Thank you for all your advice! xoxo


SHARPSHOCK

SharpShock is a kindred spirit! Living in the same state and enjoying all the benefits of that, we have much to talk about. That and playing PICO while we work is fun too. XD



RAYNA SKYE

She is our party girl. Always up for something fun and always having a new outfit on! Hilarious to talk to and great to share PICO stories with.


I also want to add that everyone that we meet on PICO has been so sweet and friendly. Our experience on there wouldn't be the same without you all.

HUZZAH fellow PICOfreaks!
Keep on having awesome PICOadventures!

Catmid's Room Entry

Hello! This is my entry for the Pico Room Photo Campaign!
http://info.pico.ameba.net/2010/05/27/campaign-pico-room-photo-campaign
My nickname on PICO is Catmid


A lovely pool area for swimming, comfy pillows and outdoor seating to lounge with friends. I like to leave out cheese and juice to aide in the relaxing atmosphere. I added the cactus recently to aide in the "spa" feel. haha XD



Next we have a lovely tea/garden area. Featuring a waterfall with a secret area to hide behind. I like to  host tea parties here as well as other fun events! I was so excited to see the lamps added to the gifting event on Facebook that they were promptly added to the room. :D




The next floor we have a lounge area. My friends and I can watch tv, eat snacks, play on the computer, and just chit-chat. I also like to have get together's here because there is a lot of seating for everyone. The elevated kitchen allows for creating yummy dishes for all to enjoy!


Lastly the main floor where I do most of my entertaining/hosting. Here is where everyone enjoys practicing with our PICOband, playing, singing karaoke, saying hello to our visitors, and just meeting up everyday to share the news of the day.

Thanks for looking and please VOTE FOR ME!

Room Magic!

I love making rooms. Why? I love the creativeness of it. The shapes and figures you can make, the levels, the 8bitness of it all. Why wouldn't you want to? Is it because it is tedious?  Maybe... but with a few tricks you too can be a....

ROOM MASTER!!!

 With some time you can make floors, stairs, statues, cars, boats, trees, rivers, waterfalls, etc. You name it, it was probably done in PICO. I think before you get started with making a room, learn how to make basic steps. It's important that your PICO can get to every floor you build. My tips and tricks are based on my experience building my room pictured on the left. The only thing that may hold you back is how many gummies you have saved up!

The room on the left was built with gummy, gacha, and gifts. It took a while but it progressed slowly and with lots of love.

Below I made a video tutorial for you to see how I went about making what I call the STACKING METHOD. You basically use a stack of specific blocks as a template around the room. Check out the video and hopefully it will help you get one step closer to ROOM MASTER!

 TUTORIAL 1: STAIR STACKING

If any of that was confusing, or needs to be elaborated more, please let me know and I will updated the video with notes. Or I will add EDITED advice here.

Anywho... PHEW! What a post! I hope this encourages you to explore PICO more as well as getting pumped to try your hand at making an awesome room. Maybe you can enter it for the contest this week? If not, please vote for my room!!!

Thanks for reading and remember to keep exploring and creating!
