I would like to take a moment to address the idea that people are having of selling HA colours for others to submit to the monthly contest.
This is strictly prohibited.
All HA entries - base or colour - has to be entirely your own work, as with all contest entries (unless otherwise specified by the admin running it).
Anyone found to have entered contest content that they have purchased from another user, or to have sold contest content to another user, will be banned from all aspects of the contest for three months. Repeated infractions can incur more serious penalty.
This may seem harsh but I am hoping that this news post will be enough to deter people.

Random Silliness
Hey guys, just so you know, the upper part of the US is going to be able to see the northern lights tonight.
Take a couple moments to head outside and take a peek when dusk falls, it's probably going to be gorgeous!

Pretty Little Trillalings!
Pets
After a spirited race, the votes for the official Trillaling have been tallied, and our new official pet is...
... the Luminescent Lace Trillaling!
You can now take home your very own copy from the BP Shop.
Keep an eye out for raffles and contests with the other Trillalings as custom prizes!
Artist prizes will also be sent out shortly.
Thank you for voting!
I would also like to take this moment to introduce you to an alternate shading base for the Trillaling, which I mentioned we would be releasing.
Hope you guys like it! :3 The shading and highlights are meant to illustrate the rock/crystal aspect of the pet more than Aywas' standard style, so we hope you have fun with it. Again, this is an alternate shading option for you to use if you like, and does not replace the default shading.
(The alternate lineart for the Trill is still being worked on, but I'll let you know as soon as we have an update!)
