IMPORTANT: Custom & Offspring PSD files
Site Update
This is an incredibly important news post and we recommend that every single user read this thoroughly.
It may have appeared that some things in the coding realm slowed down or stopped, but we've been working very hard behind the scenes to fix a problem that popped up and was a severe priority to fix.
As such, everything you've ever known about how offspring & custom PSD files work on our site has changed.
G1 CUSTOMS:
- Do not email in any PSD files anymore.
- To upload a custom PSD, visit its pet page, click the 'edit pet' button, and upload the PSD file directly.
- You can only upload a PSD for a G1.
- When a PSD file is uploaded for a custom, a little icon will appear when viewing your customs in your lair to tell you that a PSD exists for the custom.
- Please be aware that if a custom has a PSD uploaded, and you upload a new PSD for that custom, the previous version will be deleted.
- When a PSD is uploaded, it is automatically available in breedings for breeding artists and follows the pet if sold so that the new owner can download the PSD.
What if I sent my custom PSD into the email but it doesn't show as having a PSD uploaded?
- Due to how this was coded, the little banner icon will only appear for newly uploaded PSD files. Not previously uploaded PSD files.
- If you have the PSD on hand for your custom, please just re-upload it via the site. Do not request it from us.
- If you don't have your custom PSD, and you're pretty sure you emailed it in, you can use the new PSD fetch thread linked below to have the PSD file attached to your pet.
OFFSPRING (G2+ CUSTOMS):
- Do not email in any PSD files anymore.
- Site babies hatching from here on out should be automatically linked to their PSD files.
- You can download the PSD file, if you're the owner, by visiting the offspring's pet page.
- User predictions now allow PSD files to be attached when submitting the prediction. We recommend doing so as adding a PSD to the pet after the fact will not be possible.
What about G2+ Customs from before this change?
- PSD fetch thread has been overhauled.
- You can post up to 10 pets at a time now in the thread.
- If a PSD exists in our drive, we will attach the PSD to the pet on site.
- If you have a G2+ pet that did not have its PSD sent into the email, DO NOT SEND IN AN EMAIL. We will most likely open a thread at a later date for this exact situation. In the meantime, just link the PSD in the breeding notes for any breedings like before.
Some Notes:
- PSD preview images will not always generate immediately. You may need to refresh the page a few times or wait a few minutes before refreshing.
- The PSD preview image may look odd. Whether that be a black background, white background, slightly funky, or what not. That doesn't mean your PSD uploaded wrong. It just depends on how google drive reads the PSD file to generate the preview image.
- Does it matter what you name your PSD file? Nope! Our server renames all files according to the specifications we require so it doesn't matter what you personally name your files.

Sketchy Stuff
Site Update
The Sketch Breeding queue is starting to feel a little lonely lately, so we've diversified the items made available in the USD Shop to encourage some assignments for the team's artists!
Aside from the release of a new talisman, there are three new package items that allow you to purchase a Sketch BC with its add-on items right off the bat. You can still get them in the BP Shop if you prefer using BP, but more options are always good!
The Sketch Artist Ticket has been updated to allow you to select a minimum of three artists for your breedings. Bear in mind that Cerine and Nui are no longer on the team, so please don't select them when ticketing!
You can still exclude two artists from your sketch breedings for free as normal!
Enjoy!
