Home Streets - share your style and help out!
UPDATED - May 15th 3:15 pm EST
As most of you are probably aware, there is currently no way to 'preview' a style for your front or back yard (when you click the little 'house' shaped sign and choose 'change style') - and when you purchase a style you are simply paying to swap styles... you don't actually get to keep the previous style.
While we wait patiently for Tiny Speck to release previews of all the available styes (or add images to the Encyclopedia) I thought we could get some volunteers that have used iMG to purchase the various street styles for their front yards to post in this thread so us curious Glitchen can grab a sneak peek before we decide where to spend our imagination! The idea is, we can browse through this thread (I will try to keep this post up to date with links) to visit peoples home streets so we can get a preview of the various styles.
FRONT YARD - (BACKYARD):
- Heartfelt Heath - (Plush Pasture)
- Crimson Forest or here
- Toxic Moon - (Silent Orbit)
- Lost Woods or here or here
- Forgotten Growth or here or here - (Reminiscent Reflection)
- Florid Tangles
- Raima's Roost or here - (Glaring Muddle)
- Gilded Marsh or here (full set of icons!)
- Idle Undergrowth
- Crinum Quag or here
- Birch Grove
- Dawny Woodlands or here
- Coppice Divide
- Sepia Drylands
- Parched Vale
- Canyon Cavern
- Maiia Copse
- Kolias Glingus
- Mythical Oak or here or here
- Lilac Jungle
- Midnight Glow - (Night Lights)
- Whimsical Way - (Wistful Tangle)
- Elated Green
- Vidya Vent
- Rolling Valley
- Rich Greens or here
- Forest Cliffside
- Gemstone Heights - (Tip Top Trinket)
- Placid Views
- Eventide Meadow
- Takia Taken
HOW YOU CAN HELP: If you currently have your home street set to a style other then the default and plan on keeping it that way for the next little while (AND don't mind having a few visitors to your street), please post here with a link to your Home street page (by clicking on your profile and then clicking on the 'Visit your Home Street' link and copy/pasting the URL in your response) and the name of the style of your street please!
UPDATE: Updated with 1 backyard snapshot! Please post your backyard snapshots and the name of the style and I'll add them to the list!
Thank you to all who help satisfy my (and I'm sure many others') curiosity!

- I have Vidya Vent!
- I have Placid Views for the moment. Come on by and check it out!
-
Awesome thank you(s)! We have 4 street styles currently...keep 'em coming!
(I'm off for the evening - will update the post with any new links in the morning!)
Spread the word and lets get previews for all the different styles! - I have Mythical Oak!
- zomg so helpful. *clings to thread*
- I have Raima's Roost
- Cool thread. Going to sleep now, but will be very interested to see how the thread develops. :)
- I have Idle Undergrowth expanded to the max, man.
-
I have Rich Greens!
ETA: (Busy Acre for your backyard matches Rich Greens.)
ETA2: Preview fixed itself once I expanded my street~ - I got Takia Taken. Haven't decided on it completely yet but will have it for awhile.
- Gilded Marsh. I also have a full set of icons out there for reflectin'.
- Raima's Roost
-
Mine is also Rich Greens -- for me Forest Cliffside is its one serious competitor among free options, with the Alakol-ish Placid Views a third. Thanks for the tip about Busy Acre, MXG.
I like the ones that are find the middle between the super-saturated Groddle-Meadow and washed out Rasana/Salatu styles. -
Mine is Forgotten Growth.
http://www.glitch.com/locations/LHVJD3BI43V2O09/ - Eventide Meadow
- Midnight Glow
-
I'm Gemstone Heights - almost fully expanded, but there isn't much of interest on the far sides that isn't shown (from my experience during testing.) It's matched by Tip Top Trinket in the back yard.
Personally, I love the anti-rook charms hanging from the tree and the rook skull in the one on the far left. - Crimson Forest here
- You might also want to add the backyard styles (and their prices against them)
- I have Dawny Woodlands.
- Not a bad idea! I have Canyon Canyon.
- I also have Forgotten Growth, if you want an alternate look. Still expanding, though. I'm on my mobile, so no fancy links for me: www.glitch.com/locations/LH...
-
Thank you to all who contributed while I slept! I've updated the first post with all your links (I haven't verified them all yet so if anyone finds a problem please let me know!)
I'd like to add backyard info as well (as per Rah's suggestion) - any thoughts on the best way to do this? I'm thinking zoomed out snapshots (though you won't get the whole backyard)... or does each backyard style correspond to a front yard style? If that's the case I can add them beside the correct backyard style! - I think the backyards and front yards all match, yep. Screenshots are probably the best way to go, since you can't visit everyone's backyard. When I'm not on my mobile, I'll post my backyard. :)
- My theme for both street and backyard is Lost Woods. I loved it in the prerelease and subscribed mainly to have access to it. www.glitch.com/locations/LH...
-
it appears that the one listed for "forgotten growth" isn't right...that's the one I currently have.
www.glitch.com/locations/LH...
great list! I can't believe there are so many styles! - Does anyone know why the profile page links still show the old image? I've had Takia Taken since last night but the preview still shows the old style. I could share a screenshot but have not idea where to upload to.
-
Just noticed some of the alt links are not different... I will go through all links and fix very soon!
Also: as Byte Crook noted some previews on the Home street pages have not updated with the correct styles people have chosen... you may have to actually visit peoples streets to see the styles - I have Forest Cliffside.
- @Zauberberg ditto about Forest Cliffside! It's what I used before the reset. And np. ^-^
- My back yard style is Night Lights (fully embiggened)
-
Regarding backyards - I have max expanded my backyard and have tried and snapped the six bog style ones zoomed out left and right.
They are all accessible from My Snaps page . For some reason on that page they all show as 'Processing' right now but you can still see them if you click through. Hopefully that will sort itself out at some point. - Does anyone have Placid Views as their home street - fully expanded to the left? I would really love to see what that looks like! :)
-
geekybird: your snaps page is private until you post/share the pictures to your home page/news feed! When you get a chance (and when the pictures are done 'processing') go ahead and share them and post back here and I'll get them added to the thread!
Updated! Night Lights backyard is amazing! Love the floating islands! - whimsical way
- @absolute -- the Placid Views link in the post is for my street, and it's fully expanded in both directions now. It's beautiful, come check it out!
-
The Dawny Woodlands listed above isn't the one I have... ?
Here's my Dawny Woodlands - I have Elated Green in my street, & Wistful Tangle in my garden (both fully expanded, though the garden pic doesn't show all of it, some missing from the far left)
- Great thread
- I've got Maiia Copse. And a snap, if you don't want to visit.
- @Miss Coco - Wooot! Thank you! :)
- Birch Grove
- I have Waggish Wander in my backyard.
- Glaring Muddle backyard.
- I've updated front yards but I've become totally confused with what backyard goes with which front yard! I'm off to do mothers day things but when I get back I will try and sort through the muddle! Thanks to all!
- I have <a href=http://www.glitch.com/locations/LHVORFOCJ1V2PD1/>Parched Vale</a>
- I have Crinum Quag (front yard)!
- I have Lilac Jungle but it is not fully expanded yet. You need to click on the little zoom icon to see the whole height of the thing, it just looks cut in the default picture.
- I have "warm frolic" but totally not expanded yet.
- Aha - here is the backyard that matches Gemstone Heights - Tip Top Trinket
