Today, after school, I was playing my Nintendo Wii and decided to make a Mii. Then, after doing a lot of complicated stuff with the Mii Channel, I had a new, but very creative Mii that sort of looked like a Koopa from the Mario games. There are different types of Miis, being Portrait, Crazy, and Creative.
Most of the time, when you make a Mii on the Nintendo Wii, it would be one that looks like someone you know. To make a good Portrait Mii, the person you are making it of should be right near you or you should have a picture of them. This helps for detail like the size of the head, size of the nose, shape of the eyebrows, and more. I would really suggest that the person is there with you when you make the Mii so you can get personal preferences from the person about them. For instance, when I made a Mii for my friend, he was there to tell me that he wanted to be skinnier than I made him and taller. Or, you can make a Mii of a celebrity. The one thing with that is that you have to put in the right smile to fit theor personality.
A lot of people also like to make really weird Miis with things such as makeup, funny eyes and nose, and gray hair. The key to making a Crazy Mii is to use as many of these funny and weird things as once. I personally like to use the shortest and fattest figure possible for my Crazy Miis. One Mii of mine, Zupahdisko, has a grey hair afro and big glasses, which are both weird in my opinion.
Finally, the very skilled people at making Miis would know that you can make very creative Miis using the Mii Channel. The key to doing so? Moving around and resizing the facial parts (eyes, eyebrows, mouth, nose, etc.). One example is when I made my Koopa Mii, I moved his eyes to the top left and right of his head, his eyebrows to where his nose would be, and his mouth in between the eyes and the eyebrows in their positions now, so it looks like as if the Koopa has a beak-ish thing on his face, like all Koopas. Another way of making creative Miis is by making images in the face. But, this needs more moving. For instance, I made a Goomba Mii with an image of a Goomba from the Mario games on the face of the Mii by moving and resizing the eyebrows, nose, mouth, and eyes of the Mii.
As you can see, there are many ways to make a Mii. Whether your Mii is very creative like my two, a portrait of a friend, or some crazy looking thing, you should know how to perfect it and even how to make it in the first place. Sadly, I will not have an article tomorrow, due to a certain event I am going to, so see you right back here on Sunday!!!

hi jake
looks good - flows nicely and thought-provoking like your handling of the "N" topic - and i don't have a Wii so i don't need Mii but i do need Me - anyway jake keep em coming - i read your earlier posts when jeff told me about your blog and was impressed then - you should write some more just to get a body of work and also set up a little studio in the house for you and jeff so you can do some video inserts and who knows you just might find a sponsor in the music biz - not too many 13 year olds writing to their own group - so sponsors might be attracted to you too - keep dreaming - ge-oh
