Catch These Adventure Pets!
Pets
I hear the sound of hundreds of users waiting in the bushes to ambush some Adventure pets!
And if you aren't trying to catch pets in Adventure, now you'll have a reason to! Here are six new pets to go and catch:
If you're unsure of why there are only six this week, or aren't aware of the recent Adventure pet release changes, please go read this news post.
If you want to design some Adventure pets, go and post them in their respective threads here!

GCC Team
Pets
The GCC Deal is going strong. Starting now, any orders submitted (and ones that are expecting outstanding forms) are going to have a new field in them:
Species:
Keyword:
2-3 Colors:
Suggested Artists:
Please note that I cannot guarantee that a suggested artist will be assigned your design, but if you happen to see some artists opening up GCC blogs that you like, feel free to name them. There are about twenty five artists right now so obviously not everyone is opening up a blog!
Based on a suggestion from another user, feel free to use that new field to tell me who you DON'T want your design assigned to (don't worry, it'll be kept secret). That I can much more easily comply to and just skip over your form if I'm assigning for an artist you don't like. Be sure to specify if it's someone you like or don't like, though!
Also, I thought I should mention that the document organizing all of the GCC design purchases is linked to each individual form PM thread, so you can update/change your design request form (including suggesting/denying artists) as much as you want by responding to the original message, until the point where it gets assigned.

Congratulations!
We've got a lack in Ay Universe/Space Art Gallery entries, so I am extending the submission deadline through Monday August 20th at 11:59 PM--the same time that the region closes. So if you've already caught all the pets, why not try entering? :3
Good luck!

Weekly Raffle
This week's raffle winner is:
Fluff (#41104)
Who had 51 crystals out of 20,135 total and won a Leaf Harmonica!
Congratulations!
Next week's winner will receive 3 SP! This is a great opportunity to earn some of those elusive paws!
I also have some other important announcements for you!
There was a teensy weensy problem with the Golden Basket Charm where it would basically disappear after being used, and the culprit was those pesky charges. We changed the item to be one-use BUT credited each charm owner with individual GBCs for how many unused charges you had. If you were in the group of folks that lost your item and have not yet had a refund, please PM me with the associated breeding details and I will take care of it.
I'm also a big poophead and neglected to announce that we do have an updated prompt for the Story Game, so get those fingers ferociously typin' if you want a chance at a cool prize! Entries close Friday at 11:59 PM.
As one last little note, my inbox is a giant hot mess right now.
If you haven't had a reply from me yet, you should be receiving that tomorrow or Saturday at the latest.
(Please remember you can go to moderators for general questions and assistance!)

Tokens + Custom Reminders
Site Update
The Custom Tokens in the Trash Shop have been given a serious price bump. I know price increases are never fun, but I think we can all agree that being able to get a pet with 75% edits for 1 GP isn't quite right.
And while I'm here, I'd like to remind everyone that glows, transparency, and clipped on accessories/clothing still count as edits, and thus are not allowed on Metals.
This pet is okay for Metal:
These pets, however, would NOT be okay:
I'd also like to make sure everyone knows that the Personal Custom Queue now allows you to cancel your own pet submissions! If you submit an image only to realize you submitted the wrong image, had a white background, coloring errors, or any other mistake, you can cancel it yourself instead of having to PM me.
