A Lifetime of Headers

Dear viewers of the PHB,

Over the lifespan of the PHB I have designed headers for special occasions to lift the mood on the internet.

My style has changed, the quality has improved, and finally all my headers can be showcased on display at my DeviantART Page.

Were you here to see all of them?

Ribica

Hello.

“After my quick break at the local cafe, I explored more of this new island to discover the people here calling it “Counterfeit Island.” What an intriguing name, I wonder why they call it that? I guess I’ll just have to explore some more to find out.”

The title of this post is “Did someone say, “Counterfeit Island?”The image used in this post is here:

In this picture, we can see Comic Kid standing on a barrel on the dock. He is close to a boat named Ribica.

The title of that picture, peculiarly, is little_fish.jpg.

Analyze: We can safely assume that this place is on the same island as the Jazz Cafe that we recently saw in this post due to this excerpt from the post above:

“After my quick break at the local cafe, I explored more of this new island

Unfortunately, our predictions of a continuation of French Island were wrong. Instead, we have what is referred to as “Counterfeit Island.” It’s excellent that they are already working on a new island, although I hope RTV Island releases soon, as well.

Boo Updates

Hello all, it’s been too long. For everyone new that does not know me i’m Codien the graphics guy here at the PHB.
I’ve been having exams and too much work to focus on this site, but don’t worry i’m off school in only 2 more days, then you will have me all to yourselves for as long as you want. Just don’t kill me.

First update i would like to announce is the new Poptropica Help Blog header. This was created lovingly by me in memory of my old headers 😦 [Read what happened at my blog]. I hope you all like it. Give me feedback and tell me what i could add or improve. I WUV BLUE! ❤

Over at the PCB they posted a new post about the Boo costume, obtained at the advertisement; ‘Monsters Inc’. I’m sure all of you guys already knew this and are already scaring monsters with your cute smile and costume. “Mike Wasalski!”

A third thing to add to this small yet charming post is a small secret brewing in the Poptropica underground world. The creators are busily making a new thing that not even i can talk about!
All i can say is it involves a profile and a ranking system and different options of what food you like, favorite color, how many games you’ve won, and thats pretty much everything there doing.

But don’t panic! BOO! They are going to release Reality TV island soon. All will they. *scary music play*

The Return of…FRENCH ISLAND?!

Yes, I do realize I’ve been making all the posts of late. xD *cough* 😀

Anyway, the Creators have a new blogeh posteh! And it’s about time too, since we haven’t gotten any news on islands in forever. The blog post is titled “Return of Comic Kid, and New Island?” WHY SO MYSTERIOUS CREATORS?

The post itself:

Return of Comic Kid, and New Island?

Well, I’m finally back after a long trip of searching out new islands in Poptropica. I even had time to grab some hot chocolate along the way.

COMIC KID

Interesting indeed. What island do you think this’ll be? For some reason, I think it’s French Island. Maybe it’ll just be plain “Music Island” LOL. 🙂 A member of the PHF even suggested that it’s another part of Reality TV island, however I don’t see how it would fit in. :/

The cut-off stage background says “Jazz Cafe”. As some of you might have noticed, the microphone and stool look as if they’re from Spy Island (in the Hair Club) although the one at the Hair Club is blue.

Another new update is the new addition to the “Buy Poptropica Credits” page. It now allows you to buy credits from your mobile phone! (Credit to Deathstalker of the PHF!)


Personally, I think this feature is useless – who’s going to buy credits from their phone? I just don’t see the point.

And so I end this post with 2 questions for you PHB readers (please answer them in your comments!):

  1. What island do you think the Creators are referring to? French Island maybe?
  2. Have you ever brought credits, plan to, or probably never will?

Until next time,
Coderkid

Advertisements, Bonus Items

2 Cool Ads!…with not so cool prizes.

POST UPDATE: The Multiverse Project is back online!

Check it out, and don’t forget to tell me what you think! =D

WAS UP HOMIEZ?!! i iz har today *screen fizzles and rotates*

Woah…what just happened? OH NO! IT WAS MY ARCH NEMESIS, ANTI-MOTION! He must have escaped from his alternate dimension and tried to hijack my post! Well, he’s gone now, so on to THE POST! CUE DRAMA MUSIC! *silence* I SAID, CUE DRAMA MUSIC! *silence* Don’t make me come down – *music plays loudly* That’s what I thought. As I was saying, on to THE PO – *music plays* HEY! I didn’t say to cue – *more music plays* NOT funny guys.

Please excuse my special effects team, they must think it’s April Fools Day. One sec while I go knock some sense into them.

*goes off stage, screaming and load noises are heard, comes back*

Now that that’s been sorted out, we can finally move on! On to THE POST!

There’s two new Ads in Pop! (Credit to Happy Storm and Xarr of the PHF!)

  • The Electric Company Ad, about a new TV show coming to PBS Kids. (NO, I DON’T WATCH PBS!!)
  • The Monster INC. Ad, about the old movie coming to DVD and BlueRay (HI-DEF).

In The Electric Company Ad, there’s no mission or “problem” to solve, but simply a synopsis of the show, a trailer, and two actors from the show. The only thing to get out of this Ad is the costumes from the actors.

The other Ad, about the new version of Monster INC. DVD, actually does have a goal. You have to find the kid (or shall I say PopKid?) that’s escaped into the Monster Realm. Using the key cards you find (which allow you to access different rooms in the ad) you have to search for the girl. The reward is…”lack luster”. What you receive is a card that takes you to a “theater room” where you can watch the trailer for Monster INC.

Here’s some screenshots for both ads:

I was asked to promote these 2 awesome blogs, by Adammos (Popular Thunder) and IkeWB!

Be sure to check their awesome blogs out!

Lastly, I’d like to say that The Multiverse Project will be back up soon, it’s getting a few…renovations.

Peacing out,
this has been a message from mo-*fizzle, static* ANTI-MOTION! MUHAHAHAHAHA!
