Spring Seasonal Shop
Site Update
The Seasonal Shop is now open and hungry for your tasty Blue Paws! As is tradition, our Spring season goodies are relatively low-key, but let me introduce you to a few of the fresh things we have in store~!
What is a celebration without a smorgasbord of food from around the world?
You'll find five assorted energy and hunger foods above, including a Literal Carrot Cake!
For our fauna lovers, we have three baby pet companions for your pets!
There is a Baby Raffi Plush, adorable little Piglet, and running Foal.
Sticking with our continued egg theme, you will discover that the two eggs above are forum title/achievement items. The Painted Handblown Egg will unlock the title "Pretty in Pink" (in a pink text color) and the Fragile Egg will unlock the title "Don't Touch!"
Finally, we have a rather prismatic brew called the Color Changing Dye.
This potion will transform your active pet, at random, into one of six exclusive colorations. In case you want to be surprised, I won't reveal the images here, but here are the options: Tropical Pollen Folium, Spring Lamb Cheve, Spring Bloom Idolia, Pastel Kityip, Dandelion Oakl, Sparkle Bun Kaba.
Don't be sad, Sniffles! I didn't forget about the other pets. *wink*
You will also find a total of 18 pets able to be individually purchased from the shop itself as well. A few extra pets were added to the shop and Color Changing Dye since you guys have been so patient with us getting things set up! <3
The Seasonal Shop will be open for a full week, closing after June 14th at 11:59 p.m.
The Egg Field will be closing up after June 8th at 11:59 p.m. just to give you a 24+ hour notice.
After that time, you won't be able to deposit eggs but will be able to collect them until they are all gone!
The Dye Raffles will begin in just a few moments! Winners will be drawn on the 11th, so be sure to get your entries in by the 10th at 11:59 p.m. just to be safe. :3

Commissions Platform
Site Update
After some fiddling around and testing by a core artist team, the big change is finally here! We are opening the market up for artists to take USD commissions for pet designs and HA artwork.
The new Commissions Platform is where artists are permitted to post ads and make transactions for their USD art services. Want to take commissions? Post your ad there! Want to sell a unique design or a set of designs? Post your ad there! How about PSD uses? Go for it! It's available for the USD sale of any derivative artwork made from Aywas pet bases or HAs.
Unlike the Paintbrushes, which essentially charged a 50% fee for taking USD commissions, use of the Commissions Platform only requires a 15% fee of all finalized receipts. Fee Collection days are on the 1st, 7th, 14th, and 21st of the month. The next fee collection day will be on the 14th due to the timing of this release.
A Knowledge Base article has been released with rules regarding using the Commission Platform and a description of the Fee Collection.
It's only natural that artists will start shifting over from Artist Paintbrushes to accepting commissions through the Commission Platform. As a result, we have raised the Paintbrushes payout to 75% of the original price of the brush (for instance, the Gold Paintbrush, which costs $20, will yield $15 payout).
Paintbrushes will still likely be in use by players who cannot use PayPal accounts themselves, and have to buy brushes from other players with GP or services. But they will yield more now, so they won't be entirely phased out by the Commission Platform.
Please note that this change in payment amount may result in some delays with redeeming Paintbrushes initially. Also, please be aware that the description states that Paintbrush information should be sent to account #15 now.
The Terms of Service has been updated to reflect our new rules regarding USD sale of pet designs under the section "USD Sales of Designs By Artists". In addition, we have decided to add a new site-wide rule:
"You agree that you will not spam or send unsolicited advertisement or commercial messages to players through the PM system."
One final note: these changes (the Commission Platform, especially) are going to be in trial period mode for three months. This is a big change and will undoubtedly have a lot of effect on the economy of the game. We reserve the right to remove the Commissions Platform at any time, but we will make our best effort not to do so before the three month trial period is up so we have time to examine the effect it has.
