Climate Change Writing Contest!

As may of you know, the world is sadly on the verge of the sixth mass extinction. 

This means that thousands- even millions- of animal species will disappear forever!

Climate change plays a big role in these kids of events, and I thought it would be fun to spread awareness in a writing contest.

While I am still getting submissions for other contests, I am also going to be taking in submissions for this one.

Want to do it? Awesome! You may do any form of writing, including an essay, a poem, or a song.

Please make sure you use correct grammar, spelling, etc.

Ensure that your submission is a good length.

Remember to stick to the theme of Climate Change!

When it is finishes, comment below in our Disqus chat or e-mail your submission to theanimaljamfeather@gmail.com!

If you have any questions, feel free to ask in the same email or in the comment section! :)

RIM: Rare Epic Antlers

Today's RIM is the Rare Epic Antlers, sold in Jam Mart Clothing for 550 gems.

It was released on accident yesterday (Nice Going, HQ!), but was removed for a time until today.

I love it.

So pretty...

If I could shoot a deer with antlers like that, that would be epic...

What do you think of the new RIM?

Black Friday Sale & Jamaaliday Blog Theme

While I believe MyFuzzyKins has a nice item post for today, I just wanted to alert everyone that AJ Outfitters is having a Black Friday Sale!

If you're looking for some spare diamonds or gems, check out the sale before it leaves!

In other news, I am updating every aspect of the blog to have a cool winter-like theme for the Jamaalidays. All the buttons will be from Mt.Shiveer and even the background has been given that traditional green & red style. I hope everyone likes it! :)

(I had to do this with a Nook Tablet, so check out MyFuzzyKins's post for items.)

New Pixelated Table

Heyo, Myfuzzykins here once more. Hurricane is off on an unannounced road trip, so expect me for a little while! Today's new item is the Pixelated Table, to go along with yesterday's new items.

Its at an affordable price of 600 gems. I wonder what tomorrow will bring! Who knows, perhaps Jamaaliday items will start being released because Aj has transformed Jamaa Township into a winter wonderland!

I do they acknowledge other religions this year. I feel as if every year people start realizing that more and more, because the awareness this year is higher than I have ever seen it! It makes me happy inside that people are willing to 'fight' for other religions, I myself am Jewish! Hannukah starts on December 6th, I will try to get a special post on Hannukah sometime around there.

Thats all for today! Keep on Jamming!

Pixel Items and Item Search

Hey Jammers, Myfuzzykins here! Happy Thanksgiving! Today's new items are the pixelated chair and couch. I think AJ is starting a new theme.

I don't know how to do the color format thing.

On a bigger mention, a late little update. I'm guessing it was meant to be released with the Arctic Foxes, but it was not ready. There is now another page (unannounced) in the jamaa journal! You can now type in items you want to find. For me, a big den decorator, I cannot express what a relief this is.

Here is a test run of the new system, I searched up table, and all of my tables from throughout my entire inventory appeared!

Thats all for today! Have a great Thanksgiving to all who celebrate it!

(P.S. What do you think of my tag?)

Giant Hyena Plushie

Hello, Jammers!

Today's new item is the Giant Hyena Plushie, sold in the Diamond Shop for one diamond.

This lovely item comes with 10 colors: red & blue, black, gray, red, &  purple, white & purple, blue, green, yellow, pink, brown, and default purple.

Would you viewers rather that in gif form (like on the AJS) or in the still-image comparison shown above?

What are your thoughts on this silly little item? I like it and I think it will be big with the wolf-packs and such.

Staff Member P.S: I am creating a Staff Listing page with some bios and schedules for each of us. If you would like a short bio on it, please comment it below. Remember, do not share anything that you do not want posted in public!

Welcoming Mikestar10 to the Team!

I have wonderful news, everyone!

I have added a third member to the staff team; Mikestar10, welcome to the Feather Staff!

Rare Item Monday: Rare Pilgrim Hat

I hope you all enjoyed MyFuzzyKins's wonderful post yesterday about the new Arctic Foxes.

If you have not yet seen it, please check it out here.

She is a wonderful author and we are all blessed to have her as a part of the team.

Today we have the Rare Pilgrim Hat, just in time for the Festival of Thanks!

It is a nicely colored head accessory available for 450 Gems on the sixth page of Jam Mart Clothing.

What do you think of the color choice on this item? Personally, I almost like it.

I am also happy to say that I will likely be welcoming more members to the staff team.

If you are interested, always feel free to ask questions or e-mail theanimaljamfeather@gmail.com

Thanks for reading, and Jam On!

All about AJ's Arctic Foxes!

So as most people know, Arctic foxes have arrived in Jamaa! Personally I think they did a good job, they don't look identical to regular foxes! Here is a picture of an arctic fox right when you get it:

I find them pretty cute! But wait! This fox is all white, what does it look like with different colors?

 

At first I didn't like how the second color (yellow) didn't have much priority, but I realize it makes sense and looks good.

 Ready to delve into the world of Arctic foxes? Read on!

Poll: Jamaaliday Items

I know there is annual controversy over holidays not being noticed, and I do not want to get to deep into it, but I want to see your opinions on the topic.

Animal Jam's annual Jamaaliday Celebration occurs all December long and celebrates Christmas. However, Jammers of other religions celebrate other holidays and aren't really that happy about the situation. Personally, I think it would be a huge leap forward to include anything as simple as even a "Jamaaliday Candle-Holder" in the form of a candelabra. I know many of you would like that, too, and I would like to see the results of this nifty little poll. :)

What is your opinion on the Jamaaliday items?

I'm fine with them.

I like them, but I wish they would celebrate other holidays than Christmas.

I really don't care.

I hate all of them anyways.

Poll Maker

Edit: The results so far are amazing me. If we get enough votes, we have the legal right for the cause to be checked out, so keep voting. It really is awesome to see my little blog tapping in for the change. 

Big Changes on the Way at AJF

Hey, everyone! Nothing Animal Jam related in this post, but I figured I should inform everyone on what will be coming up very soon here on the Feather. I am very proud to announce these changes and I hope to release them ASAP!

Jamaa Journal #160

Well, today we have what is possible the happiest JJ there has ever been.

Pixelated Wolf Head

The hearts of I, Hurricane, and those close to me are with all of France tonight.

Such a horrific event is a terrible thing and it is awful to think someone could do this.

It takes a troubled mind to do such a thing and it is simply terrible.

We wish you well, even in time.

Super Late Update

Happy Veterans Day to all my American viewers!

I know I have been inactive for about a week, and I am very sorry.

(Alibis: school, corgis, turkeys, and bats.)
Anyways, we were given an awesome update last week...

Yay, I managed to get a lazy screenshot.

As you can see here, Twists and Turns is back in all of its frustrating glory.

We can now have 300 clothing items! Big relief for me... Now, how about we crank the den item limit up some more, eh?

In the most exciting news, Arctic Foxes will be coming. I personally hate this, to be completely honest. It is pretty much a mix of the two most popular animals. Really, AJHQ? Were is the creativity? Personalization? Uniqueness?

The Astronaut Shop has opened in the Sol Arcade. I have to say, I really like some of the items. As a kid, I always loved space (and dinosuars. I was an odd child...) and I still like it today. The items in this shop  look really cool.

That is about all the news I can give right now. It is 10:05  at night, so goodnight Jammers, goodmorning far away Jammers, and good afternoon far, far away Jammers. I wish you all a great day or night. :)
