Contests
The art gallery has been judged!
The theme was School's Out! and we received three entries that definitely had the right idea about things!
Here are our featured winners:
They won:
1SP, a Teacher's Pet drink - and they can PM me with their choice of one of the new NPC plushies!
Congratulations!
The current theme is Family Beach Trip!
Official Aywas stock is not permitted for this theme.
The sun is hot, the ice-cream is melting - and possibly so are your pets! This month we want to see what happens when a family from Aywas hits the Seaside! From barbecues to volleyball to sandcastles or run ins with grumpy Tashians - we want to see the sun, sea, sand and silliness you can bring!
Showcase this theme with any medium your heart desires, just keep it Aywas-related. <3
Good luck!
Upcoming themes:
August 2017: Stargazing and Meteor Showers*
September 2017: How IS Manju feeding everyone?
October 2017: How is Greta celebrating Halloween?
If you ever want to submit an Art Gallery theme idea, we're always taking suggestions here.
Thank you!

This month's Jeweled Bases are created by Anchantal (#14964)!
If you want to be a Jeweled Custom Artist come visit the Hiring Thread
It looks like this poor fellow isn't enjoying the heat so much - it's melting away!
I also want to just remind everyone about the Prediction Pool Party (like you forgot!) It is still going on for a few more months and we have a lot of GP and USD artists who have opened up shop over in the Sub-Forum! We also have been keeping copies of all of the news posts in the main Pool Party Thread, so you can read that to stay on top of all the updates. We also added a cute little banner to the left side of the screen for easy access!
We hope that you guys are all enjoying this so far!
Coding Corner
Just a quick note to address that we know the BP Shop is playing up and that one item is currently showing as costing 0 BP, but you are unable to buy it. This happened earlier this week but it seems that Greta has been unpicking the coding that fixed it, just in case we might have a boring weekend. It should not spread to other items, but it may affect others when more updates to the shop are made later for the Monthly HA Contest.
Please be assured that we are working on this as fast as we can and hope to have it fixed soon.
This should not affect your purchase of unaffected items.

T4T: In Memoriam
Items
It's always a sad day and a heavy heart when a furry friend is lost, and our hearts go out to Executive Archer (#662) who is currently mourning the loss of Lorelei.
In-keeping with Lorelei's loving nature, a feline companion for your HA has been made in her image, and will be in Trash for Treasure until July 30th.

Goodbye Rusted Rodeo...Hello Metals!
Site Update
The Rusted Rodeo is wrapping up tonight, so get those Rusted Breeding Coins submitted to take advantage of the perks!
After the excitement of the Rusted Rodeo, I'm sure everyone needs some relaxation time....which is why I'd like to announce the Metal Mudslide Barbecue!
Starting when the clock hits Tuesday, July 4th (so literally as soon as the top bar says "4 July, 2017") you can submit exotics with a Metal Breeding Coin.
This means that you can breed Teo, Faux, Oet, and Snoodles with a Metal Breeding Coin and receive one offspring if the breeding is completed by a site artist.
For any breeding that will be done by a site artist during this Metal event, if you write the words "Artist Palette" in the notes, then your artist will create your offspring as if an Artist Palette was attached (even if you aren't breeding Exotic genera together)!
This event will last from Tuesday, July 4th until Friday, July 7th at 11:59 PM Aywas time!
I wanted to make a short announcement just to let everyone know what the plan was so they have time to set up breeding slots and stock up on coins before the event begins!
The Pool Party rules will still apply to predictions for Exotics, which means that users can make 2 offspring total and their offspring can act as though a Painted Vial is attached!
Another News post will come when the event actually begins, but for now go ahead and stock up on that BP and find some Teos, Faux, Oet, and Snoodles to breed!
Edit:
Fertility Potions are allowed on what Genera they normally are + Exotics during this event only.

Rusted Rodeo - Last Day is Tomorrow!
Site Update
Reminder that if you submit a Rusted Breeding Coin tomorrow
Friday, June 30: Users have a 10% chance their offspring will be a baby Hybrid of the artist's choice! If you use a Hybrid Genetics Kit you may choose the baby hybrid if your breeding rolls the 10% chance of a Baby Hybrid (if you do not roll a Baby Hybrid your Hybrid Genetics Kit will be refunded).
Please remember that you will need to breed two pets that result in a Trash Hybrid or attach a Hybrid Genetics Kit in order to participate in this.
These perks are not compatible with predictions, these are for site artist created offspring!
Please check the News Post below for important information on Keychain sales!

Merchandise has been shipped
Site Update
I just shipped out all of the Keychains and Melos that were bought, we still have a few keychains left, Xero and Chaos are running the lowest.
If you get curious about your shipment just bump your PM with me where you placed the order and I will check the tracking number.
I had a special helper, aside from my husband, with making sure all packages were cared for properly...
Apologies to anyone with a cat allergy, I glanced away for 5 seconds and when I looked back he was burrowing and made a nest.
As a side note, I am going to be going away for a few days so I may be unreachable, the rest of staff, however, will still be available so please send your queries their way~

Exotic Pet Palace Warning and more!
Site Update
Hello everyone! I wanted to give you a bit of a heads up that I'll be changing the stock in my shop come July 5th! So if you want to own any of these pretty pets I currently am selling, you should buy them before July 5th. On July 5th, they will be permanently retired and new pets will take their place.
Reminder that if you submit a Rusted Breeding Coin tomorrow
Thursday, June 29: Users can list 5 normal Hybrids in the notes.
-Users will have a 25% chance of the artist choosing one of those 5 hybrids for their offspring genus! Otherwise the offspring will be a trash hybrid!
-You must breed 2 pets together that make a trash hybrid or include a Hybrid Genetics Kit in case you do not roll a normal Hybrid (Hybrid Genetics Kit will be refunded if you roll a normal Hybrid and one is attached).
Please remember that you will need to breed two pets that result in a Trash Hybrid or attach a Hybrid Genetics Kit in order to participate in this.
These perks are not compatible with predictions, these are for site artist created offspring!
We would also like to announce another small part of our Prediction Pool Party event going on!
We will be offering prizes for users that are doing edited predictions for site currency (BP, GP, Items, etc.). Basically for artists who are creating non-USD predictions!
These prizes are for the following coin predictions: BC, EBC, HBC, BD, Eggnog, Neura Embryo, TFE, Alidae Egg, and the Dragon Lotus.
The 100 Prediction prize is first come first served. This means that multiple users can claim the 100 prediction prize!
Here are the different prizes you can claim:
3 predictions= 1 sp
5 predictions= choice of BCO/BCC
10 predictions= TSP
15 predictions= 1 SP
20 predictions= Silver Potion
25 predictions= 1 SP
30 predictions = Skill Box
35 predictions = 1 SP
40 predictions= Magic Custom Trove
45 predictions= 1 SP
50 predictions= Embryo Pearl
55 predictions= 1 SP
60 predictions= Metal Exotic Egg
65 predictions= 1 SP
70 predictions= 1 of each Jeweled Crystal/Hybrid Crystal/Rare Crystal
75 predictions= 1 SP
80 predictions= Gold Antiquity Stave
85 predictions= 1 SP
90 predictions= Sketch SCC pack
95 predictions= 1 SP
100 predictions= Input on next released non-slashbot species
If we find that artists are able to complete more than 100 predictions, you start over from the beginning of the prizes (and also have Kaiyo's eternal love :P)
Artists must be creating predictions for other users and not for themselves.
Escrows do not count towards this.
Artists will need to post in this thread using the form provided!

These perks are not compatible with predictions, these are for site artist created offspring!
