Its quite nice, but I dont think all the furni looks right and the whole wall would e full, not just 1/4

It's alright but IMO Improvements: Use walls all the way round not just 1 wall, scrap the freeze tiles they look really odd, hide the wired, cover all the floor (where wired is) and scrap the random poster. However I like it as a first grabber so well done but maybe try these improvements and post the improved version if you decide to take on board my advice :)

If I'm honest, I think you should wait until you have all matching furni and then start again. It's so inconsistent.
Stick to one thing, if it's easier then just buy loads of freeze tiles to cover the room. Get the walls matching, hide the wired and then try working from there. Sorry to be so harsh. :P

It looks a bit better but i still advise putting walls and flooring by the holos :S

i think it looked better with the freeze tiles, but it is still pretty poor, in my opinion
i can see you're going for a christmas theme, but those stockings look wrong, mainly because it is so so hard to get wall furniture looking consistently good (because there aren't squares on walls so it's free hand)
get rid of the polar bear bed, even if you want to keep the bear itself, and any pet stuff should just be picked up straight away
jukebox needs to go, or be hidden better, the dragon is stacking poorly, the two snowmen should match or be removed and there shouldn't be a gate to the holodice, who is going to go in? just put another bar, and put something behind it, like more christmas trees.

it's a nice idea, just poorly executed in my opinion

Xmas tree walls where the stockings are (put the stockings on top?) And I'd say Ice patches where the holodice are.

I have thought of sticking the stockings on top of the x mas walls but they dont work so i would have to get rid of them :'(
Also i am looking for ice patches atm but i only have 2c aswell so im going to have to wait a while to upgrade :D

Maybe try making the walls black? Although Xmas tree walls would look better than black walls and stockings imo.

Yes i am definatly going for the x mas walls not black walls. After my grabber reviews are great it will be my cino's turn. So if anyones buying stockings ill start to sell them for 2 for 1c

Also should i get rid of the extra ice block lantern and icm with the purple present on it? would it make it look better?

i know but what do you think would look better?

The dragon I only just noticed is stacked too low so maybe raise that up a bit. I'd take out the pet nest/bowl also.

It's pretty good but I think it needs quite a bit of work personally. Too many things to type but just an example, I don't think snow is good in grabbers just cos it causes lag, doesn't add much and is quite annoying. It is cool though :D

It looks a lo t better but Imo I would prefer the freeze tiles in grabber, makes it look more like a grid. :P
