Return of the Portrait Ship! We'll be creating whisks to creatively named ships throughout the year. These will be special locations for you to take portraits solo, with your friends, and maybe with an Ocean Master or two. We will be posting dates and unique ship names for each ocean. There will be a whisk on the events tab of the notice board which will remain up for approximately 24 hours. These are NOT free portraits - it's just an opportunity for you to get a portrait with a special ship name. We will be choosing names based on the season, holidays, or the current theme for the limited edition portrait backgrounds. Feel free to make suggestions here. Remember it needs to make sense in the following phrase: "Commissioned by Aphrodite on the fine vessel ..........." The ship names should be unique and not exist on the ocean. We may end up having different, but similar, ship names on different oceans. If you own a custom named ship and would like to share it for a portrait location, please post the name of the pirate holding the deed and vessel name. If we decide to use the name, we'll create a portrait ship with that name just for the day. Portrait Ship Schedule: January 1-2: of New Year Resolutions, Auld Lang Syne, Perfect Snowflake January 20: Dancing Penguin, Black-Tie Gala, of stinky cheese January 29: Ultimate Puzzler, Jigsaw Puzzler, Booched Puzzler, First Plaice (Meridian and Emerald) February 10: Year of the Snake, Carnival February 14: Matching Sole, Lovestruck Leviathan February 26: Snow Queen, Frozen Solid (Emerald, Meridian) March 2: Reading Rainbow, Red Hat Catfish March 14: Sweet Memories, of Pi March 17: Four Leaf Clover, o' Guinness March 21: Spring Green Stargazer, Garden Plotz May 4: Millennium Falcon May 25: at the end of the Universe June 18: Summer Picnic June 28: Golden Delicious June 29: of Apples July 04: of Independence July 18: Moo July 21: Jolly Rasta August 11: Perseids Stargazer August 28: of sand, Searing Sunfish September 27-29: Legitimate Merchant, full of unmarked bills, Clandestine Plaice (Cerulean, Meridian), Hiding Plaice (Emerald) October 13-14: of tAStee bRaaiNs, Wolfsbane, of skulls and bones October 30-31: Well-Preserved Mummy, covered in pumpkins, Spooky Skeleton, Blood Vessel, Toasted Pumpkinseed November 7: Novel Plotz, Twisting Plotz November 21-22: Cookie Cutter, of sugar and spice December 23-26: Eggnog, Santa's Sleigh, Silver Bells, covered in snow December 30-January 2: of New Year Resolutions, lost at sea ---------------------------------------- Avatar by Cloverwood. ---------------------------------------- [Edit 26 times, last edit by Aphrodite at Dec 10, 2013 1:49:59 PM] |

That was my stupid question too :) I have a passion for clever standard renames, and like to find something relevant for portraits, but for this I would suggest more of the names we can't do ourselves. In particular, those starting with 'of' or 'of the', or with spelling/puns we can't get away with when going by the rules. I had an awesome finished-memming name turned down recently that didn't fit the rules for either standard or custom, so I'll suggest it here, but it would probably only appeal to a select audience. I will try to come up with more specific ideas. Dis Maparate ---------------------------------------- Imp, totally sane mermaid-siren of Meridian. Superdoodle avatar by Budclare =D |

Concur, I think all of my renames are Standard ones. I was trying to figure out what to do for finishing Cerulean memming, but haven't been able to come up with anything standard, either. ---------------------------------------- Aethera of Princess of Maniacal Menagerie Blockade staff on any ocean Avatar by Bunnylaroo |

Will the names of special ships be announced in advance, say a week or so, so we can think of nice titles for the portraits? ---------------------------------------- Locu on Cerulean and Opal (and some other Oceans) Check the Rack at Phakey's Tailor Stall on Tinga for nice clothes!

I've put up the dates for January so you can get your PoE and doubloons together and schedule your friends. I'll try to get the ship names updated a few days before the event so you can be ready to smile pretty! ---------------------------------------- Avatar by Cloverwood. |

That would be so prefect for breast cancer awareness or something like that (think it's for a month, but can make a specific day ^^) Also some special renames I own that can be used: "Radiant Angel" (Christmas), "triumphant stargazer" ~ perhaps a competition/world sports event , (or even a dancing with the stars theme) ---------------------------------------- PixelPixie; I collect Sunfish, Angelfish, Blowfish Pixelpixie avvy's Avvy by me |

Deeds, that Sizzly holds on Emerald: Big Boy - (Universal Children's Day) Bid Dadio - (Fathers' Day / Parent's Day) Big Gurlo - (Universal Children's Day) Big Mama - (Mother's Day / Parent's Day) Black Leather Jacket First-Aid Kit - (World First Aid Day) Professional Greenie - (Earth Day / Bird Day ) --- Edit: to add to the wishlist for the portrait ships... Dear OMs, at least on Emerald you have 'Santa's Sleigh'. Now isn't that more than appropriate for Christmas :D ---------------------------------------- ~ Sizzly of Emerald ~ Avatar by Aerecura <3 ---------------------------------------- [Edit 1 times, last edit by Notsizzly at Jan 7, 2013 1:40:29 AM] |

Turns out I never made Midnight Age, but no one else has either, so still viable. Other ships of mine that might be viable: Jolly Elf (Christmas, of course) Social Butterfly (Spring) and my new favorite, which just came to me while looking at the word Butterfly, and is a standard, woot: Reading Rainbow All ships on Aethera. For Valentine's Day, I can get likely you permission for the Honey Moonfish if you like.

I'd love to have a "Supercalifragilisticexpealidocious" ship for a portrait some time as this adjective isn't a proper rename as it's too complex to spell correctly. ---------------------------------------- Locu on Cerulean and Opal (and some other Oceans) Check the Rack at Phakey's Tailor Stall on Tinga for nice clothes!

I (Steveb of Cerulean) hold the deed to the vessel "Beautiful Seahorse" it can be used for a portrait with your seahorse familiar (there's also another of the same name, I've had mine since cobalt and there was one on midnight too) I also own "plundered loot" perhaps for a portrait with all your piles of PoE or Booty chest I don't know what theme it would fit into but I also have the ship "sharp shark" ---------------------------------------- Steveb Drunken SO of the crew Boochin' Drunks King/Monarch of the flag Super Awesomeness Cerulean Steveb on every English ocean (Cerulean, Emerald, Ice, Meridian & Obsidian) |
