Welcome to June!
Site Update
Welcome to the jubilant month of June!
The summer-lovin' GP Shop pets are having a blast!
But the BP Shop pets know the season happens fast, so snag 'em before they drift away!
If you colored one of these adorable 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-June) so we have time to snag 'em for science!
Need some good ol' R&R? Treat yourself to the Essence of June 2014!
Inspired by Candy Month, this sweet liquid will turn your active pet into a random monthly coloration from the pool above.
The premium monthly item is a Tengu Trunk, which contains a 5-piece set of Tengu inspired items! You can preview the hair, skin, pants, wings and mask here!
We are on our third Lunaris in the celtic tree zodiac theme!
Remember, the Hawthorn Lunaris is currently with us through June 9th, then a new birthday feline will take over. (And I have a mid-June birthday myself, so I am excitedly awaiting the next pet in the series along with the rest of you mid/late June babies!)
Remember to visit the birthday link on your personal holiday to receive a gift from Aywas! Need to change your birthday? Click here!
The new monthly contests have been announced!

The Nova custom makers have moved to the Premium Shop for June, then will migrate back to the GP/BP Shops for July and August, before returning to the Premium Shop in September.
Coding Corner
A monthly update from behind the scenes!
This month's update will be short and sweet since we're hoping to have some individual project updates for you in the coming weeks, but I did want to give you the teaser that everyone's favorite Welcome Back page is being worked on! (And I don't know about you, but once it returns, I plan on spending an unhealthy amount of time on it. XD)
We also have a fun celebration event planned for the second half of the month and plenty of surprises in store for you!
You'll also be hearing more from me soon on everything from housekeeping items to new information resources and more suggestion implementation. :3
Cheers to June!

Art Gallery Extension
Site Update
We're in need of a few more entries for our Background Mash-ups theme this week, so you have until June 2 at 11:59 p.m. to get any last-minute submissions in! Remember, your task is to combine two or more Ay/Ara background or location settings, such as Wasteland + Enchanted Forest or the Arctic + Desert. Any medium is acceptable, but official Aywas stock is not permitted.
Good luck!
I also just wanted to give you all a heads up that the huge monthly news post will be coming later on this evening, as I am attending a celebration of life/memorial service for one of my family members today.
Thank you!

Painted Pen Reminder
Site Update
Hello folks! This is a gentle reminder to be sure to follow the description of the Painted Pen.
This Painted Lesser/Metal Breeding Coin add-on will let you name three currently known artists you approve of having your breeding assigned to... or three you'd rather not be assigned to!
Be sure you put three artists you want, or three artists you don't want. Lately I've been having to cancel breedings that put less than three artists (especially "I only want ___" type messages), or who mix and match the options with "I want A and B, but not C".
I have also had to reject breedings that list artists not on the team. Remember you can grab the names of the artists off the Knowledge Base articles for each Painted Coin respectively.
Both queues move fairly fast, but it's still not fun to lose your place, so please be sure to follow the Pen rules!
If you absolutely want to pick one artist for your breeding, you can always use an Artist Ticket! You just have to send it to me instead of Frey.

Cracked Teacup Update
Site Update
As promised, I have a Cracked Teacup update for you!
If you made a donation in the designated timeframe and emailed me your proof, you should have now received your item(s) unless I had a question for you or there was some missing information.
So, if you don't have your items yet, please check your email for a response from me. :3 If you don't have an email from me but didn't get your teacups, please send me a PM and re-send your proof (double check that it went to [email protected]).

Breeding Mistakes Reminder
Site Update
With miss Mauri still out of the country, I was instructed to give you all a reminder about the Breeding Mistakes thread!
Babies born after September 13, 2013 can be posted in the thread until June 6th.
After June 6, the thread adopts the original policy of only allowing babies less than a month (30 days) old to be posted.
Remember to get those babies posted by June 6th at 11:59 p.m. :3
(And please thoroughly read the first and second post in the thread before posting any babies.)
Thank you!
