I’m Back + Mog Companion!

waving

Hey everyone!  It’s been awhile, but I’m finally back from vacation!  Sorry I didn’t have more stuff to post while I was gone, I was hoping for some more guest posts.  I loved having Legolene and Satsuri’s posts featured here, and it would be super awesome to have guest posts in the future just for funsies 😀  If any of you would ever like to write one, just let me know!  Any draenei-related subject matter accepted, not just transmog.

While I was gone, I was able to log into WoW occasionally with my dinky little laptop.  I had the graphics slider set all the way to Low and it was still overheating!  I can’t believe I ever raided 25’s on that thing :O  The up-side was that when I got home and logged in I was in love all over again with how beautiful the game looks on a halfway decent computer!

So, I don’t have a mog post today, but I want to let you all know about another little project I’ve been working on for like, ever.  I’ve been messing around with it for almost a year, and I keep shying away from talking about it because it’s just not “done”.  But here, I’m gonna do it!!!!  Introducing…

www.wowmogcompanion.com

I got the idea for this site one day while wondering what all the colors of hoods were in game.  I started keeping pictures on my computer, and thought I’d grow it into a visual database for transmog.  It’s sort of like MogIt, but without the dressing room.  I actually used MogIt to take all my pictures, so thanks to those folks 😉

The basic concept is a quick way to find all of the models of a certain piece of gear quickly.  Say you want to see all of the plate dresses, they’re all there together!  It’s also great if you’re wearing a flared-sleeve top and want to see what color gloves come in a short model, to keep the sleeve showing.

So, that’s the gist of it!  I’m still working on some of the categories, including adding sets, but I think it’s time for my Mog Companion to start companion-ing… or something like that, lol!  Check it out and let me know what you think, I’d really appreciate any feedback 😀

  1. That’s a lot of work, Draynee! I am very impressed 😀

  2. This is so great! The amount of work you must have put into this… Thanks a lot. 🙂

  3. Wow, this is just amazing! Such a great idea! My husband says this should be an addon 😀

    • Hehe, I wish I knew about making addons and such, probably would have been easier to put the site together 😉

  4. Such a great project! I’m sure I will have use for it when making my transmogs.

    You must have put in a lot of work to make it. Thank you so much for doing so. 🙂

    • Thanks Lorelei! I hope you can get some use out of it! I use it a lot for finding boots, cause I hate those weird short, stumpy boots 🙂

  5. I am thrilled by your new site. Being colorblind makes my mogs just a tiny bit difficult, so being able to see them all and ask someone “What colors are in this one?” helps a bit. One thing I’ve been hoping to find is something that mentions the major and minor colors of each item. One can dream, one can dream…

    • Thanks for your comment! I had thought about putting the major color for each piece when I first started the site, but I was worried it wouldn’t be specific enough. I may add that back to the “list” 🙂

  6. Like others have said this is a really good idea. I too use MogIt but I get annoyed at the lack of categories (such as ‘short gloves’) so this is brilliant!
