Easter Sunday

Hey guys, Happy Easter! Today should resemble new life and beginnings. I hope you didn't eat too much chocolate! xD

Artwork
I drew this picture for you all! It's a Chobot wearing bunny ears!
I got the idea from a design made by Art.
His designs are really cool! I wish him the best in his designing career! x]
These ears are so cute, I hope they get made!

Cool Playercards
    
I thought I'd share with you some cool playercards!
I haven't seen these before, so I'm guessing they will be coming soon; perhaps in the $hop?

Also, I got a new playercard! I believe it was for becoming a Journalist. I love it!

$hop
The shop is updating! I wonder what there will be.. perhaps the new playercards I just showed you? Or maybe some old citizenship items as they won the poll.. Hmm, I'll post the new items as soon as they come out so keep checking back on my blog!

Cool Styles
I found a cool and cute trend in Cafe St. today! It was based on TV and Movie Characters.
I chose a user called Neat as she had some sweet outfits inspired by famous characters.
    
Look at how much effort was put into these outfits. I love her Marge outfit as I am a big fan of The Simpsons, I think I've watched one episode of Johnny Bravo, and her outfit looks exactly like him!
Well done Neat, truly amazing outfits.

That's all for now,
Happy Easter! Comment your favourite $hop item, or perhaps your favourite Movie/TV character.
Don't forget about my 75 followers contest so get following!

Latest News!

Hey guys!
How's it going? I have so much to tell you guys, so keep reading this post!

Chobots Updates
There's a new spring theme in Chobots and it looks really cool!
I really like the look of Cafe St now; it looks lively and full of life xD
Although it is not in the picture, there is a new Easter advert on the billboard.. you should check it out!

This room is very green with plants surrounding it! The Chopix statue is bright green too, haha.

Ok, so I don't know if it's just me or if it's been there the whole time but..
There's a weird badge like triangle on Chopix's shoulder.. I know it's not a big deal but still!
Also, if you zoom in on him when you're at the park you'll see that it glows.

Party Time!
March is almost over and April is coming. On the very first day of April, there is an event that everyone enjoys! Have you guessed it? April Fools Day! Of course, how can Chobots not have a party on this spectacular day? Here are the party details!
 
So what are you waiting for? Purchase funny, wacky, cool outfits at the shop!
Hope to see you there!

Minor Updates
The banner at the top of the Chobots page has changed slightly. (The banner which advertises a Journalists blog). Yeah, well now it gives each Journalist a chance to have their blog featured on the website because a new Journalists blog will show up each time you refresh the page!

Also, I'm a junior! My citizenship expired a few hours ago. I guess I'll have to work extra hard when it comes to contests!

Furthermore, the cool party hat is now available to be purchased at the store! Purchase it in time for the April Fools Party!

75 Followers Contest
Due to many requests on creating templates for Chos, I have decided to host a contest once I reach 75 followers. The prize will be a blog template, this includes: A header, banner, moving banner, sidebars, buttons and so much more! So practically a blog makeover..
So, if you're interested in this contest, get sharing and following my blog!

Thank you for reading my post,
I haven't decided on what sort of contest I will host yet so comment what sort of contest it should be!

TGI Friday!

Hey everyone! How's your day been? Today I have a tiny bit off gossip to spill to you all! Before I start, may I wish you all a Happy Easter! (tomorrow) xD Don't eat too many chocolate bunnies and eggs!

Chobots Main Blog Update
Notice anything new about the main blog yet?
That's right, they have a new header? The Nichos have now disappeared and we have Bilk and Strawberry as a replacement on the header! Isn't that cool?!
The green logo suits our spring theme, it looks great!
Jake is all set and dressed up for April's Fool Day, hmm I wonder what Chobots have in plan for April's Fools..

New Clothes
Alright! Moving on, we have some awesome new items in the shop! Look at the cool additions:
If you guys are interested in any of these items, go over to the shop and purchase them before it's too late! Below I have listed the prices for each item:
  • Girl Hair: Non Citizen, 3500 bugs 
  • Curly Girl hair: Citizen, 4,000 bugs 
  • Pants: Non Citizen, 1400 bugs 
  • Costume: Citizen, 9500 bugs 
They're all at a bargain price!

Ok, so I was walking around today and I saw that many Chobots have already bought these awesome items. If you are failing to come up with new styles with these items, have a look at these outfits users have managed to put together.

Scarleta knew how to match her styles so well with this cool hair with highlights! I thought it looked awesome on her along with many of her other items.

Phantome and Lololol1 did an awesome job spooking me off with the new suit! They both came up with a very evil but cool theme. Nice job guys!

Yay! The day has come for us girls that the curly hair is in shop! Because it is so popular, many Chobots have dressed with this stylish hair..

And lastly, we have the fancy pants to show! Many people don't seem to be so interested with pants but I took the risk on trying a new fashion. Turns out this item is as awesome as the rest!

75 Followers Contest
Twinkle will be hosting a contest soon. Due to many requests on blog templates; she will hot a contest and the prize will be a full blog makeover! The contest will be held when she reaches 75 followers so get sharing and following her blog!

Okay! That's all for now, stay tuned in for more gossip!
Comment your favourite item which has been added to the catalogue!

Easter Madness

Hi, Chobots!
It's a very busy time of the month, do you know why?
Easter is coming! It's time for chocolate eggs, easter bunnies, treasure hunts and new life!

Easter Party
An Easter party hasn't been officially approved at the moment, or in other words, posted on the main blog. However, it has said a party will be coming on our March Events page.
Let's hope that the Chobots Team have enough time on their hands to host one!

Easter Contest
You all know that Easter is coming up, right? Well, the Chobots Team have planned and created an awesome new contest for everyone to take part in!
"Well, what's the contest?" For the contest, you either have to bake or craft something Easter & Chobots-related.
You're probably thinking what sort of things you could do.

  • You could bake a Chobots cake for your entry.
  • You could also draw a really nice picture for your entry!
  • You could even build something, perhaps a cool card or some woodwork?

Be sure to be as creative as you can because the winners will be awarded with some fantastic prizes.
Remember, it must be both related to Easter and Chobots.
You have until Saturday, March 30th to submit your entries. You can submit them here!

Awkward Choment of the Week
That Awkward Choment when you attempt to click another player, but end up clicking another room. Knowing that you've clicked another room, you try to click another spot to avoid the accidental room change, but end up clicking a random player. The result in this is you walking into a room with some random  users playercard! I made a little video to show you what I mean.

Isn't that just plain awkward? 

Well, thanks a lot for reading today's post! Be sure to comment your awkward choment!
Until next time.

Saturday Fun and News!

Hey guys, sorry for the long posting gap, almost three days, but it feels a long time xD
I haven't posted because I was so worked up on creating a new template! So beware, this may be a very long post! Haha.
Before I tell you all about it, I have some random, off-topic news to share..

In the UK, or where I live, it has snowed. I mean A LOT of snow.. 10 inches in my garden! I thought I'd show you a little picture of what I mean:
Ok, so this is what my back garden looks like! I made a snowman with my friends, because we're cool like that. We used unwanted chocolates as the eyes.. LOL

Then we decided to go out and found this.. we HAD to take a photo!
I still can't stop laughing! It was so funny haha :'D
Moving on..

Blog Updates
I kept my promise, my blog has been transformed into a Spring Frenzy.. xD I'm really impressed on the amount of votes.. 15, ok I'm allowed to feel popular! LOL.. Anyways, I'm still working on the sidebars but they'll be updated soon don't worry. If you have any suggestions on blog themes or something you'd like to see on my blog comment on this post.


Also, as you can see, I have a grey, unknown Chobot on my header.. that's because I have a new author.. however that will be discussed on another post. ;)

Cho News
Chobots has been very busy this past week; there have been contests, contest winners, polls.. the list is endless.. Read on for more details!

Let's Get Fun!!!

Hello, Chobots!
It's me again, Swifter! I'm almost certain this post will be long. So, let's get started!

New Email
Chobots is a community where everybody loves drawing. So, the Chobots Team have decided to create a whole new Email just for art. The email address is 'artwork@chobots.net'.
Isn't that just awesome? This Email should be used for artwork, videos, music and designs. You should receive a reply within 24 - 48 hours. Some cool exclusives for sending in your work are:
  • Cool designs that could be created and put into the game and will be given to YOU for free 
  • Awesome Graffiti that could inspire us to make art for our blog posts 
  • Your original Chobots videos that could be posted onto the community 
  • Create your very own music that could be remixed for the game 
  • Other creations or unique ideas that could be made
So,  be sure to work your hardest!

TV Contest Winners
 Moving on to the winners of the St. Patricks Day contest. So, if you don't know what the St. Patricks Day contest is, I'll explain! For the contest, you were given a template. Which looks a little like this:

All you had to do with the template was decorate it, and submit your entry in the comments of the Official Blog post. Well, the contest is over, and I can officially announce the results! The winners are:
Swifter (Me)
I was really shocked when I discovered I had won. There were some amazing entries, and I don't know how I managed to compete against them. I wonder what the Chobots Team thought about my entry. They said:
"Swifter is our agent winner, that did a pretty good job on designing his entry. Swifter decided to go further than only editing the TV screen; he edited the whole template too! With his self-made green template, he wished everyone a happy St. Patrick's day. Amazing job!". Awh! Thank you, Chobots Team! 
Chalk
Chalk is a very talented user, here at Chobots. She has a big passion for drawing, and really expresses her emotions within each piece. I really like how the background seems to be blurred, to make the Chobot stand out! Fantastic job, Chalk!
Coliflower 
 photo TVcontestentry_zps4f61dfc2.gif

I really like Coliflower's unique entry. I liked the idea of making the Chobot fly out of the pot of gold on Nyan Cat. Absolutely fantastic! Great job.

All the entries were amazing. So, if you didn't win, not to worry! I loved everybody's entry! Great job, everyone. However, if you did win, you received:
  • T.V remote controller 
  • 7 days of Citizenship 
  • 7,000 bugs
Spring Party
Tonight at 08:30PM Cho-Time we will be celebrating Spring in a party. At the party there will be heaps of magic, rain and music! You can find us at the Park. I really do hope you can attend, it'll be lot's of fun!

Art Work
Let's move on to some artwork created by the players of Chobots that I discovered when wondering around within the Chobots Community!
 This first drawing was created by Squilloise. Take a peak!

Fantastic, isn't it? I really like this piece! What do you think? Our next drawing was created by Vasa12345. Check it out!

That's just wonderful, don't you think? I agree 100% with the comment! How about you? 

Fun Fact
Finally, I've been thinking; You guys may know me a little, but I would like to provide you with a 'Fun Fact' about myself.Did you know? I can limbo from just over 1 cm off the ground!
If you don't know what limbo is, here's a little image:

There is also a really catchy song that is played while you limbo. You can check that out below!


Doing the limbo is lot's of fun! You should try it. But, careful!!! Don't do anything silly.
Thanks a lot for reading my post.

Have fun!

Juicy Gossip #2

Hey guys!
Ok, so today we left school an hour early because it was snowing! :D
Woo, I'm so happy xD But, I'm quite confused because it was snowing... In the middle of March?!

Blog Updates
Not many changed to the blog, however a new poll is out!
The question is 'Next Blog Theme?'. This is just me asking you guys what my new blog template should be, the category with the most votes will win!
 
Also, there has been a slight header change which has added our new authors, Program and Peace!

Story of My New Friend
Ok, so I've made a new friend called Vasa12345 on Chobots! She's really kind, sweet and funny. We have met before but I feel today we have communicated more and had bucket loads of fun! Haha. Click here to view her blog. Hmm, she's really random.. Like she'll message people saying that she's eating brownies and stuff like that.. LOL. P.S. I love brownies. 
I decided to copy her style in a different colour, because I was bored xD We look identical but the only difference was that I was wearing a peace shirt and she was wearing a Max shirt. Minutes later I get a gift from Chobots Team, it was a Max shirt, in the same colour I was wearing! LOL. The message said 'For being a good friend' Awh, I was soo touched :')
I don't know who gave me the shirt, but thank you! 

Movie Review
Getting a little off-topic right now but oh well xD A while ago, I watched the BEST MOVIE EVER. Like ever.. And I would like to tell you guys about it! 

It's called. The Hunger Games. The story is set in North America, now known as Panem and is composed of 12 districts that are controlled by the Capitol. Every year, one boy and one girl from each of the districts are randomly selected to compete in the Hunger Games, a televised battle to the death for the Capitol's amusement. When Katniss Everdeen's younger sister is chosen as one of District 12's representatives, she volunteers to be the tribute in her sister's place. Katniss is now part of a torturous game show and must kill or be killed. She must fight to victory against 23 unlucky candidates.
I would say the age of this move would be a 13, and possibly tweens. Only because there can be quite a bit of violence in it.
This movie can also be found as a book. It is the first book of the trilogy. Also, the second part is coming in November, can't wait!

That's all for now, be sure to comment what you favourite movie is!

Feeling Lucky?

Hey guys! Another jam-packed, amazing post heading your way!
Ok, before I start, I have some random news to share with you...
Last Friday, it was Comic Relief in the UK.. Also known as Red Nose Day. It's a day where people raise money for people less fortunate as us. So, I sprayed my hair red and now it's not coming out D;
Moving on..

St Patrick's Day Updates
Happy St. Patrick's Day! To celebrate this green occasion, the designers have created a fun, fresh Cafe St decorated with shamrocks, pot o' golds, and advertisements of St Patrick xD

Cool Outfits
Today I was looking out for some cool St Patrick's Day themed outfits to be featured on my blog. Perhaps it will give you an idea on how to dress for todays event.
LaurenMeow - I like how she has incorporated her green style with dragonfly wings. Also, the blue in the tutu also goes well with the wings. An amazing outfit, great job.
HummingBirdVani - I absolutely love her outfit. The way her shoes and hair colour match the brown shirt and paintbrush. The cute golden ascot also matches the tip of the brush.
Coliflower - I love how the rainbow magic just stands out. It brightens the entire mood of the outfit. Well put together, well done.

Funny Fact
The three users I chose all have 1 day away from having a whole numbered age! Haha.

New Author, Art and Fun!

Hello everyone!
I'm Peace and I'm a new author on this fantastic blog! Currently, I am an Agent, Journalist and a daily player on Chobots. When not playing Chobots,  I love to go out and hang with my friends, go shopping/traveling and design. Some things I enjoy doing are singing, dancing and listening to music especially. If you see me on Chobots, come and chat! I'm always open to talk.

Interview
Moving on, as I was walking around the Chobots city, I found an interesting person to interview! Here is my interview with a great Agent named Eggs!
1.How do you feel about Juniors being able to gift?
I think it was a great decision to do this. I think juniors were missing out on a lot not being able to gift. I can see why some people said they did not want it, because there are a lot of scammers, but I guess there are no decisions made without errors and setbacks.

2. If you had to choose, which food in the cafe would you eat in real life?
The water/ice stuff. I have dreams about water bro.
Maybe the potion too, I would imagine it to taste like willy wonka's magical bubblegum :D

3. Do you feel like you've come a long way on Chobots as in  accomplishments?
I have earned everything I wanted to on .com, and more.
I still want a microphone though c:

4. Do you have any favorite artists on Chobots?
I have always loved Cathan's work. He is simply incredible!
And this incredible girl from .com named Guguzi
As well as many more

Fan Art
Also looking around the Chobots community, I saw some really cool art I'd like to share with you guys! Here's a cool St. Patrick's Day drawing by Vasa12345 that was posted on the forum! It's a great drawing for the holidays, good job!
[Image: 2j3jimw.jpg]
Another amazing drawing I found on the forum that was done in the Chobots' Artists Underground was this unique anime drawing by Kelly123! I'm shocked at her artistic style and how she completed this, wonderful job!
[Image: 2jcj0qu.png]
The last drawing was also done in the Chobots' Artists Underground. It's by another one of our artists, Critic. It gets me in the mood of summer!

Awkward Choment of the Week!
I was so confused when I saw this! Perhaps the Cho Team missed this room out?
Haha, aw maybe we should help clean it up soon!

That awkward moment when Rope St. still looks like the Nichos took over.

That's all for now! 
I hope you enjoyed this post and stay tuned for more!
Peace
