After Hazel's success I decided to try Blue Fire and Crystal. 14 hour Mountain from the looks of it. Sufficiently scared of this combo all over again!

I did the same and got crystal. UGH! 24 hours down the tubes! I think I'm just gonna use firefly/seaweed from now on because if I don't get rainbow it usually ends up being seaweed so I can level them to 10 for my plant and water shrines. I've already done my earth and fire shrines so I don't want to use mud and blazing because I have no use for lavas.
 
On a high just thought this looked cool wish it was 4 lmao x x x

Congrats. I still have my pair In the EBI. Still have another 20 hrs. I just purchased a small bags of gems, but I still haven't used one yet. Did you used pairs or combos? Is so what combos did you used?

No I used pairs those guys are number 14,15,and16 in my pan collection lol and I have number 17 in my EBI I have always used pairs simply because I got my first 2 together anyway, and you are always guaranteed a pan nothing else keep going just have a little more patience than me lol I'm the queen of speeding up kinda like poppy lol except I don't buy as many just use what I get sent and thankfully that's at least 6-8 a day x x x

You still have more patience than myself. As i normally use the gems too easily that is why i was down to 1. You will have 17 Pans? How long did it take you to bred that many. What level are you?
 
In my opinion when going for the gold you may as well use something that sells for good money in the end because you won't be able to just level them up now like you can going for silver. It's easy to level them up to 10 but 15 is AWFUL, AWFUL, AWFUL. Lol So you may as well do a longer breed that will pay off something when you sell them. Just my opinion. :thumbs:

This is a really, really good point. If you're spending 320K food to get a dragon to Level 15, that's 16 Million coins. Selling them at the end for a million is a lot better than selling them for 50, lol. Even 100K starts to look pretty small potatoes at the end of it.
 
Here's my next list! And sorry again about the typos! Evil iphone! :D

I love that you still have a plant habitat! Not alot of people kept these in favour of higher earning habitats. So well done there :) And the egg statues on your portals look cool too. I still have one too :D

I like the breeding cave island! The flower beds an air trees around the cave really compliment the colours inside the cave. I also like that the pathways arent all around the island. i think there are some smaller decorations that the island could do without, but i love your baby sun dragon! Maybe some more yellow trees near him or a red tree cause the colours will set him off nicely :)

Loving your Panlong/colosseum island! Its really unique. I havent seen an island laid out like this before. The flags in the triangular formation look great and the pumpkins look like they are guarding the games.

I love the natural look of your water island. Looks like a fantasy forest!

The natural decorations on your shrine island are cool too. I like that there are only rainbows and the HC on this island. Aesthetically pleasing:D

Your cold/air island have a real natural feel to them too. Simple, yet designed. Good luck with your shrines! Xoxo

Another unique colosseum island. Havent seen an island with the colosseum in the middle before. And the shrines around the edge of the island look great too! There are alot of little flower beds! Perhaps one every second square instead?

Love your nursery islad. With all te trees it looks real natural. Took me a while to realise it was a baby island! Personally , i'd be inclined to put the breeding cave a little further away from the hatchery. Behind some trees in the corner perhaps. Just so the lovely couple can have some privacy ;) Just a thought.

I shall call the treat farm island the autumn island cause of all the colours!! Very nice. I like how simple it is in design and yet really nice to look at. With no dragons on this island its also very clean. The central pagodas are a cool touch. Perhaps a few more lanterns?

I see you've carried the square design on the earth/fire island too. And you also have a plant habitat! Nice :D I love your use of colour here. Very co-ordinated, but your guests are trapped at the portal with no way onto the island! Lol

Your last island i would tweak a little. Instead of the yellow trees, i would put snowy pines and some air trees to match the habitat on the island. I would leave some yellow trees near the lightning habitat. Just a thought. And i love the checkerboard design of the paths and flowerbeds. Excellent!

Neary at level 30 i see! Keep working on it Ivana :) xoxo

Your main islands are so busy and your dragons are so big! It looks like jurassic park! ^_^ Let me just say, i love your gold shrines and you inspire alot of us on this game :)

Your colosseum island is cool, but i would be inclined to remove a few of the smaller decorations. And maybe move your moons to another island. Perhaps the pagoda island would look cool?

The pagoda island is so serene! The large expanses of grass are nice to see and the flower bed borders are a nice addition.

On the treat farm island i like how the portal sits between the farms and then pastthe wonderful shrines or past some food or accomodation. After that, onto the rest of the park. Love the central ponds too. But like the 1st island, id remove a few small decorations.

The suns on your cold island are a nice touch. Its like they are trying to warm up the cold dragons. And im jealous of your halloween decorations. I accidentally sold mine when i was redecorating :(

Aah... The Panlongs! And the crowns on some them look mighty impressive! I like the simplicity of this island. Very clean and functional. I also love how you've used the bamboo decoration to make a bamboo forest.

And then theres your "rares" island. Very clean lines, love the placement of your gem tree. A very unique design. Congrats on all your achievements Adam! Xoxo

Ive been looking forward to checkin out ur islands Trish! I love the foresty feel of all your islands. Each groupings of habitats has its own little forest encircling them. I like how each one is also colour co-ordinated.

Perhaps you coulf incorporate the pathways you have used on thr gem tree island on your other islands? Would tie them all together nicely :)

I see you've gotten 2 of the shrines to silver on your colosseum island. It will be good once you get your next island. You can split the colosseum over the 2 islands. The panlonga and the breeding cave and hatchery on one. The colosseum on the new island perhaps?

Another suggestion. Maybe move some (or all) of your treat farms to one of these islands? Would free up some space on your moon island. So close to that next island! Keep saving Tricia! Xoxo

Oh my god! I love your designs! Very neatly laid out. I think sometimes the more we can have, the more we get and sometimes it can look cluttered. But you've kept your islands very neat!

I love the element groupings you've done with the matching decorations. I also like that even though the habitats are grouped together, they're not all square and symmetrical. I know, i know! That goes against all my self being, but it looks so great! Its neat without the symmetry!! :)

I see you're breeding panlongs. I hope your going to put these on your colosseum island near the pagodas. That would look awesome!

With your colosseum island, i love your rares and there placement. But im not too sure of the placement of the villas and library... But im not sure why im not sure! Lol. Perhaps i move the portal to in front of the colosseum and spread the buildings out more.

Overall, i think you've done an awesome job. Good luck on your rainbow hunt too! Xoxo

Your meandering path island is awesome! I actually borrowed the idea for half of my colosseum island (as you've seen). And i like that it has a small water habitat. Most people upgrade their habitats straight up, but i think they look cute. And the natural decorations make it more serene.

Your forbidden city island is sooo cool! I like islands with a story. I love egg statue wall. That would have cost a small fortune ;) And your panlong, centre of attention up on his pedestal. Love it!!

I like the symmetry on your earth/fire island! Although, just cause im picky, i would put the lightning habitat at the top of the island and have the earth habitats on each side of the island. And thr colours compliment the habitats really well.

Your colosseum island is really busy. I would be inclined to remove some of the buildings. Other then that, i love the cold habitats and matching decorations and the flags in front of the colosseum.

Good luck with the shrines and thr hunt for more rares! Xoxo

Ooh! Symmetry! Your islands rock!
I'm a little OCD and love how symmetrical your islands are!

Your colosseum island is fantastic! I love the rares flanking the games and with the flags as markers arw good too. And the gem tree front and centre is brilliant!

Your cold island is lovely. The 2 red trees are a nice contrast to the blue and white of the habitats.

The earth/fire island is great too! I just love all the symmetry. Dont you wish we could rotate some of the decorations. I do think a second sun at the top of the island would look better then the rainbow. Perhaps move the rainbow to behind the colosseum?

I like your breeding/treat farm island too! Even though its not symmetrical like the others, its still very structured which i love. I love how you segregated the breeding cave and the hatchery from the rest of the island. Especially the natural trees and rocks.

Overall, the most symmetrical islands, besides my own, that ive seen. Awesome work Michelle! Xoxo

Gypsy_purple
Awesome! Your rares is giving me some ideas for my own island! I love how neat this island is and your forest around the bottom is cool. May i suggest using some rares flags near the habitats? It would look cool! :)

The shrines in front of the colosseum look cool. Havent seen it set out that way before. And your red habitats compliment you fire habitats and volcano nicely. I think your gem tree should be on your rares islands. It gets lost on the colosseum island. I would also be inclined to move the flags to either around your colosseum, or perhaps in front or beside the shrines. Not sure about the hatchery and breeding cave should be on this island either. Perhaps on the luuurve island ;)

Speaking of the love island! I love it! Its a shame the plant habitat holds so little cash. I think perhaps a border of rose gardens and then group the habitats a little closer together. I think it would look nice :)
All your visitors are stuck on the warp pad! Its funny. They warp in, "Eww! Love dragons!" and warp back out again! ^_^

I think they're awesome islands and keep working on it :) xoxo

Surely I'm not the only one that thinks there should be a thread just for Island reviews. Would like to refer back to these in the future.

I've just got onto lvl 27 2 days ago and I got my first pair of pans hatched on the 31st jan so just under 2 weeks to get the 17 of them but I have sped up quite a bit thanks to all you generous peeps x x x
I actually only have 13 as 3 are hatching still and one is breeding but as soon as they get down a bit in hours I'm going to speed up the breeding one and the one that's closest to hatching as I've only got 19 gems left so need to be careful lol x x x

Soz. It's what I am using but still can't get the selecting bits I want to. It wants to select it all. I'll have to keep trying.

If you hold over a single word an option will pop up to select, select all or paste. Got to select. Once the word is highlighted grab the small blue cirles in either end and drag to encompass what u want to delete. Just make sure u leave the QUOTE at the beginning and end :)
