Alabama? Nef? Help yourself if you like these - let me know if I need to do anything to them.
Beehive
Desert
Hummingbird Garden
Jungle
Plains
Terrarium
Mad Scientist Lab - Uh, I mean Genetics Lab/Land of the Lost
This leaves just Australia and New Zealand. I'm thinking perhaps Ayers Rock for Australia. Any ideas for New Zealand anyone?
Also - just a suggestion. I don't know about anyone else, but I haven't seen my own public page in a year, let alone anyone elses. Could it be changed so that we have a little area to code our public page right above all the farm links? Sort of like VHRs stable page with players coding above and then all the horses listed below. That would give us an area to say "hey, I'm having a sale in the kennel, bid on anything" or "my specialty is horses, be sure and visit the pasture" etc. Just a thought. |

You are amazing Cocodri! I love all of the drawings! My suggestions for Aus and NZ are:
Aus:
I love this picture, it actually reminds me true beauty (I live in Aus). Or you could go for something more native:
Now for NZ: I'm suggesting
But you'd really have to ask Tani about this, she is the real Kiwi here!
Also, I've always imagined the Gen Lab to be a more of a land of the lost type place, like a beautiful scene covered in mist! Like that kid TV show, with all the baby dinosaurs? Any help for that would be appreciated! |

Awww Choccy
*hugs*
I like that picture
NZ is so beautiful everywhere...Thats its hard to pick which one best sums it up.
Could also be a sarcastic type, and just put a picture of the 'one ring' for N.Z
Or a silver fern.
Maybe.

**mea culpa** my first thought for NZ WAS Hobbittown - but I know I've seen a lot of photos of NZ and it is just beautiful "all over" (and on my life list of places I've got to see). I really do like the picture Choco chose though.
None of the pictures so far have any animals in them - so as iconic of Australia as kangaroos are I didn't want to use a picture with a roo in it. I've had some of the best friends online who live in Aus (see what happens when you are up late a lot in the U.S.) and the thing I always remember is one friend who had a farm in the Queensland rainforest - with beach a few miles west and mountains and then the outback just a little ways east. Not sure quite how to capture that in a piccy this small though.
Maybe I'll do another Land of the Lost type piccy for the genetics lab and we'll let the admins choose or maybe even (dreaming here) they can set it so YOU can chose which one you like. Yeah, I get greedy sometimes |

Haha! NZ is such a beautiful place everywhere, it's just so natural.
I do understand the no animals trend though, but there are so many things you could choose from, but if you want something iconic then definitely go with Uluru. Or you could go Sydney Opera House and Bridge, or go landscape. But if you were to go landscape, then I reckon you should go bush land, because Aus is generally thought to be like that!
Awesome for the Land of the Lost! And I thought of the TV show!! The Land Before Time!!
Something like:
Kinda like the background in it! |

Yeah, I was thinking sort of like that - but with a volcano in the back and rainforest with those huge ferns in the foreground. Water. Sort of swampish looking. |

Just didn't want it to get lost. Until I hear something I probably won't redo Land of the Lost or the other two. |

I'm waiting to see if SBF is going to adopt these or not before I make the rest. I mean, if they don't like them or if they are all the wrong size or file type or something I'd like to know before I make any more. |

I've given Nef the link to the thread and she was going to show John. John does most of the coding on SBF, but he's in the middle of a big project right now, so don't know if they've talked about it or not. |
