User:CrystalYoshi

Welcome to my userpage! I'm CrystalYoshi (I like crysals and I like the Yoshis so there you go-- A good name for me!). I just figured out that to have "crystal" and "yoshi" as different colors in my signature, I don't need to have them be different words. So no more calling me Crystal Yoshi-- it's one word. I used to be called Orangeyoshi, but I think my new name is better. So all you who remember someone new sneaking around the wiki, and his name was Orangeyoshi, that's me. And when my name changed, my Yoshi color changed, from orange (obviously) to light blue. I'm a boy in middle school, and I like playing Mario games on the weekends, and I like to learn about Mario. I don't contribute too much to the articles besides fixing people's spelling and grammar mistakes, but I'm starting to do more. I mostly just add to talk pages and vote or comment in proposals. And having been here about two months by now, I think I'm ready to say I'm really in the community now.

Oh, and by the way, I like it when people talk to me. So leave a comment if you have anything to say! Whenever I see that "you have new messages" thing, I get all exited and start thinking, "Who is it?" What did they have to say?" And I get so eager. So I appreciate comments.

Mario games, characters, and stuff that I like
I decided to make links of everything (I don't know why, I just wanted to, make my userpage look more like an article.) I have a Nintendo DS and a Wii, and I used to have a Game Boy Advance. Despite my username, I like Mario games just as much as Yoshi games. Okay, enough about games. Now, for my favorite characters. If you're interested in what characters I like, then read it. If you're not interested, don't read it.
 * I like 2D platformers the best, like the Super Mario World series for GBA, Super Mario Bros. 3 (for GBA and later, Virtual Console), and the DS mario platformers.
 * I also like some RPG games, like Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga (but NOT M&L: Partners in Time), Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, and Super Paper Mario.
 * I don't love the 3D platformers quite as much: Super Mario Galaxy was really good, but the others were just "pretty good."
 * Yoshi's Island (the game) is better than the sequel, YI DS! So the DS sequel had a few more babies. The original had items, more levels, more fun levels, and playing it just made me feel happier somehow.
 * My favorite character: (as you may have guessed) Yoshi
 * I also like the few main characters, like Mario, Luigi, and Toad.
 * Favorite female character: Princess Peach. (How come everyone likes Princess Daisy? Daisy is NOT pretty!)

And something else: I like the color yellow as well as orange. There should be a yellow mushroom, but I don't know what it should do. I also think Mario and Luigi would look cool in orange and blue clothes. Or in each other's clothes! (I tried to make pictures of that in Photoshop, but I don't know how to manipualte images well and my Photoshop trial period will expire in a few days.)

Sprites
Finally happened; Storm Yoshi made some for me. I didn't even ask, he offered to make them. At first I didn't want them, but then I decided it would be cool to have some. I'm not sure I'll put them to use yet, but if you're dying to see them, go here. I'm not expecting this, but if anyone wanted to use them for something, ask me first. Disclaimer: Just because I now have sprites does not mean I know anything at all about spritework. As a matter of fact, I know absolutely nothing about how to use sprites. I don't even know how to separate the image into individual sprites. And I certainly don't know how to make a comic with them. So I'll leave that up to you. 20:08, 13 March 2008 (EDT)

Images
There are some images I recently, while surfing, found that aren't on the MarioWiki that should be. They're from Super Mario Sunshine, one of the red toad and one of a pianta. I found the images on the gamehiker wiki, and I was going to upload them, but I know there's a "fair use" rule, and I think they would be okay but I'm not sure. The Toad is here and the pianta is here. I'd like it if someone told me just so I could be sure.

Sig
Should I just make "Yoshi" be a link to my talk page and delete the "Sapphire Island" to save space?

My younger brother PurpleShroom just joined the wiki. Visit his userpage and drop a comment. He'll be excited.
