Dragon's Halloween/fall themed island.
Please note that since I moved my spooky dragons and decorations onto my gargantuan island, there's still lots of room left. I'll have to rearrange things a bit, and add some new paths and decorations. But for now this is what it looks like.
We share our physical lives with those in spirit. For life, like love, never dies. Love knows no limits, not even death.
I may be Utterly Rifted when it comes to breeding Rifts, but I can organize them!
First pic: Top is three Habitats holding the pure Rift dragons. Those are surrounded by the utility floaters. Just now realized 3 top habs look like eyes and nose with the utility habs finishing a 😊.
Second and third pics (moving counter clockwise): Bottom, left to right, are my Elemental Rifts. These are organized by original order of Elemental released in DV. So Plant, Fire, etc. ending with Dark.
Last pic: The best of the rest... alphabetically, so I know where Artic will be and can easily find Wormwood.
I have one row of Miasmic Ether to clear at the top (right) and three rows to clear at the bottom (left). Since I don’t need the room until we get more habitats, I choose not to clear and just stockpile E in case there’s a sale. 💸
Heaps of work to do, to tidy things up. Using the Gargantuan Island to show normal and Golden Hybrid pedestals, and their twins, in the top block, with the Primary Limiteds, and their twins, to be displayed in spirals around it. The Island with the Light theme, on the right will show the Epic Pedestals on the left, and the twins mirrored on the right. I need one more new Island to display Rift eggs and their twins, Gems and Crystalines, and the Galaxy eggs ... and their twins.
The islands furtherest right and left are the newest ones, so need to tidy them up, and space out the islands where I recently took habitats. I am 77% along towards a wish, and a new Island is definitely on the cards.
Also, can we zoom in closer now then we could before?
This thread has been dormant far too long. Please do share a pic of your island.
I am working on my gemstones island: Rainbow island, 6 habitats, lots of trees, bonsai blossom, and water fountains; a very colorful and happy island. Will share mine when I am satisfy on how it turns out.

Sharing a picture of my park after the Bright Wild Nights event. The majority of my newly acquired dragons from the event were placed in this corner, which was decorated to create a suitable environment for them.
I also wanted to include a picture of these three, because they're all so beautiful and are having such a good time together.

Redoing my park, after quite a bit of time languishing. First up is a new landing island. I've used it to house my surface dragons, an ode to my beloved Dragonvale World, which is where I was getting my dragon fix. I created an island maze, which was one of the earliest things I did back on the first page of this thread. Alas, those pictures are no longer visible, so the new will have to do.
This island also houses the shrines, and the attractions from one of the Faire events. The anniversary statues are a little out of place, so they might end up getting relocated.

I organise the majority of my Islands, according to the first element of the dragons. Plant Island is first.
It used to house the Breedcave, hatchery and Fountain of Youth, but there are a lot of plant dragons, and I don't even have all of them. Let alone twins of them all. A second Plant Island will be needed soon. Or I might end up making Limited Islands for the yearly events. Like moving the Christmas ones to the Ornament/Snowflake Island.
The Plant Dragon has been fed up to Elder, but the rest of the regulars are at Level 10, so they don't have the orbs. (Yes, I know I can turn them off, but that feels like cheating.) All the twins are level 1 babies, because back in the day, and Adult and and a baby of each dragon was the goal. Also having a baby with an orb is a cool juxtaposition. (Yes, I know you could feed them up to a high level and babify them at the F.o.Y, but again, that feels like cheating.) The adults are are in the outside habitats, with the twin babies in the middle. Pseudo protected.
I do prefer to have a continuous path for visitors going past all the habitats, for easy access, but space on the Plant Island is at a premium, so it's pretty disjointed at the moment.

Fire Island is next. It's a lot sparser than the Plant Island, so the dragons stand out quite a bit more. 4 of the habitats are awash with the blue orbs of the Twin Babies. Far fewer fire decorations as well to dot the firey landscape. Also, now seems like the time to mention that I have all the different sizes of each habitat in my park. I use them as a different type of decoration, and it adds a bit of variety here. It has also allowed me to get bone paths in between all the habitats, to allow the visitors free reign.
Then Earth Island. Unfortunately the large habitats only hold 3 dragons, so I had to make the majority of them Giant, which makes it a little plain. I see a couple of crowned limiteds here, from when they were leveled up to cover a few different elements in the Colosseum. The elder Primaries have made them redundant, so I must try and remember to replace them with level 10 dragons when I can. This is another Island which is about full, so I'll need another Earth Island in the not too distant future.

A few days ago I finished decorating and filling up my eighth island.
This is why we need a bigger variety of flowers, plants and trees. Because everything is beautiful when you've got a selection of things to choose from, such as the roses, ivy and palm trees.

So I started a second park a long time ago, back when I thought I had spare time to do it all again. My plan was to make it a park full of level 1 baby dragons. I would achieve this by feeding them up to level 4 when I needed the dragon to breed, getting a clone of the parent as a fail, and replacing the level 4 dragon with the level 1 baby. Seemed like a fun sort of challenge.
But during the course of it, I couldn't work out how I should organise the park. So I didn't get very far. Recently, back into the game, and looking at my second park, I had the idea that I should fill each island in the order that the dragons arrived. And as it turns out, I was labelling dragons via numbers, as they arrived in my park. 1-Plant, 2-Fire, 3-Flower, 4-Poison, 5-Earth, 6-Tree, etc, etc. So I started clearing the islands, shuffling the dragons around, so they fit into a habitat, in the order they arrived, from top left to bottom right
So here's the landing island for Fletch Jr Park. Dragons 1 thru 41.
As always, I like using the different sized habitats for variety sake, and paths between all the habitats to allow the visitors to see everything. And I kept the Breeding Cave and Hatchery here. The Chrysallis is the only cheat. Dragon 36 was my first Chrysallis, but Dragon 47 is also there. I just couldn't justify leaving it with only 1 dragon, and burning another habitat on Island 2 to also host only 1 dragon.
Very sparse on decorations. Level 1 dragons aren't big earners, so I don't want to waste the DC.
crumble608 Your House Island look awesome! I’m wanting to do this myself, but have been wondering about which habitats to use, like all onmitats or which element to use. Now I’m like duh, of course one of each element for the habitats. Great idea! Please don’t mind, but I think I’m gonna borrow some of your ideas. ☺️

Go ahead, borrow what you like I'm curious how yours will look like. Tell me when you're ready, then I'll visit your park and have a round trip.

For sure! I’m in process of rearranging my all of my park, when I find the free time to sit and do so, lol. I have it all planned out. I made a list of all the habitats and am giving each element it’s own island and grouping some of the epic habitats. With my last few wishes, I’ve been investing in real estate. I’ve bought both gargantuan Islands and upgraded my lost island. Plus, I just got a new wish yesterday 🥳, to trade for another island. To answer one of Fletch_smf ‘s posts, I think I’m going to use the lower gargantuan island, it’s sitting empty right now, for the House Dragons and other misc things. I’ll post a pic or two, as soon as I read through how to post a pic. 😄

omg! I finally figured out how to post a pic!! 😅 thank you so much crumble608 for the detailed, with pics, instructions 👍🏻
this is my renovation plan. I took this Screenshot a few weeks ago. I labeled each of the islands with what I’m going to redo each island as. I’ve also already given each island it’s particular theme that it’s going to be. So far I’ve completed the rainbow,sun, Light, dark, air, and lightning islands. I’m thinking to change The lower gargantuan island to include also all the house dragons and their coordinating habitats. It’s all very much still a work in progress😊

Now that’s some serious dedication! Looking forward to seeing it when you’re done 🙂
For the newbie, which dragons are you referring to when you say “house”? I’m guessing you mean primary and regular hybrids?

There are 5 houses in dragonvale: Icy Torrent, Hidden Bolt, Blazing Gale, Iron Blossom and Mountain Sun. It's a bit like in Harry Potter. They were introduced with an event in the past. Each player had to choose one house. New players do this meanwhile the tutorial I think. After the first house dragons were introduced there have been some events with new dragons which have each a connection to one of the houses. In the past event Frons was belonging to Iron blossom, Coldcoil to Icy Torrent and so on. Last year Christmas the house related dragons even had the house symbol on the egg design (Spellmason for Hidden Bolt, Reminescence for Icy Torrent...) There is a link in the Encyclopaedia showing all those house related dragons dragonvale-tips.proboards.com/post/200064/thread
