Customs Delay
Site Update
Just a very short note - last night my computer suffered a catastrophic graphics card failure, and is currently out for repairs. I'm on an old laptop but do not have access to the two main programs I use (Photoshop and FileMaker) until my desktop returns, which means there will be very little movement in the Custom Queue and Crystal Check for an estimated 3-5 days. :C Sorry about that folks, I promise there'll be overtime as soon as it gets back from the shop. I'll still be doing Kaz / Shoe fixes, general questions, metals and any designs I remember, and the like. Fingers crossed it's a fast fix.
Don't forget to put down your vote for the next Rock Crystal design!

PLBC/PMBC Rules and Changes
Items
1st:
Please be sure to look at the new artists on the PMBC article and PLBC article.
Some artists have left (noticeably Vulture and Youko) so please replace them in your Painted Pen within the next 48 hours (unless your breeding is already assigned).
2nd:
There have been rules established for requesting fixes to PLBC and PMBC offspring. The outline of the rules has been placed on each of the articles. Fixes fall into three categories: some fixes are guaranteed upon request, some are conditional on whether admin agree with your claim, and some are dependent entirely on whether the artist wishes to make the fix.
Note that you are always welcome to tweak your babies and submit them for overlay if you please, as long as they are not completely revamped.
3rd:
From this point forward, Painted Golds will yield an additional $2.50 artist pay per offspring in the breeding. This means that rare offspring will be paid higher, and if you want, you can attach a Painted Gold to a regular breeding to tip your artist.
4th:
Please observe the new "prompt limits" listed on the PMBC and PLBC's reference page:
Limit your "Theme" description to a maximum of ten words and a maximum of one reference picture. This is not a commission, so please do not be overly descriptive. If the artist wants more detail from you, the artist is free to contact you directly to request more. Themes that are overly detailed or that violate this rule will be refunded.
That is all for changes. Any questions, feel free to ask!

Kaz and Shoe Customs, ho!
Comics
I'm working my way through the huge pile of metals made for Kaz & Shoe's birthday (1,000+ you folks! Well done!) A few of them don't quite meet the requirements for metals though, so if that's happened to one of your gifts, you'll be seeing a blank Ryba or Gael and a pet profile message from me, saying what the problem was. Kaz & Shoe submissions don't play nice with the refund system, so this was the best way I could figure out how to fix them.
Yes, you can keep the blank if you prefer that over trying to fix the custom pet - Otherwise I'll overlay the fixed image onto the blank if you that gets sent my way.
Don't forget to get those Painted Artist applications in!

Art Gallery
Contests
The art gallery has been judged!
The theme was Friday the 13th and we received many entries dedicated to black cats and spooky nights!
Here are our featured winners:
They won:
Congratulations!
The current theme is Pets as NPCs!
Your task is to take any Aywas pet (or multiples) and re-imagine them as a new Aywas NPC! You can use any medium that you like, just be sure that your name/ID is included on your submission. It's also helpful if you include an image or the name of the original pet you are transforming (this does not count as part of your entry, it's just for clarity).
Official Aywas stock is not permitted for this theme.
Good luck!
Also be sure to check out the news post below this! :3
