Welcome to August!
Site Update

Welcome to the anticipated month of August!
Go on an early morning adventure with our GP Shop pets!















Then an evening stroll with a BP Shop pet companion!















If you colored one of these awesome pets, please contact Kyu (#1010) for your payment!
Make sure to include your PayPal address if you are opting for the USD option.
We will also be collecting pet PSDs directly from the thread, so you no longer have to send them in. However, please make sure you keep the links active for two weeks (at least until mid-August) so we have time to snag 'em for science!

The Essence of August 2014 is based on a peach in honor of national peach month!
Using this potion on your active pet will randomly change it to one of the colorations above. Take a bite and see what you get!
The premium monthly item will be available after we run the raffle for July's premium Teo Ticket and complete the item transformation, which should happen in the next day or so. :3

We are on our fifth Lunaris in the celtic tree zodiac series!
Remember, the Holly Lunaris is currently reigning over the skies through August 4th, then a new birthday feline will take over!
Don't forget to check out the birthday link to claim your gift from Aywas on your big day! Need to change your birthday? Click here!



The new monthly contests have been announced!
September Monthly Pets - BP Shop: Enter
September Monthly Pets - GP Shop: Enter
September Monthly Customs
Theme: Maps
Good luck with your entries!


Remember, the Nova custom makers are remaining in the GP/BP Shops for August, then will return to the Premium Outlet for September before cycling back to GP/BP in October and November.



Coding Corner
A monthly update from behind the scenes!
Did you notice the Welcome Back page is back?!
All of our programmers are very busy bees, and we'll hopefully have a lot of individual coding updates for you later this month.
I did want to also make a quick announcement that Fauna Day is still planned, but we ran into a background snafu that caused it to be bumped back a bit, and we didn't want it running into scav. Look out for Azi's event in the second half of August!
Speaking of Scavenger Hunt, our famous game will be taking over the site in just a few days, but we do have other activities set for the coming weeks, like the return of the Lunar Meteor area. :3

Get ready for a fun and crazy ride!
Scav is coming.

Graymare also wanted me to mention that there seems to be an issue with the Full Image Queue at the moment, and to not panic if your Enhanced pets aren't getting their 400 pixel upgrade!
We hope the issue will be resolved soon, and the queue can go back to normal function =)
