Welcome to July!
Site Update
Let's kick off the new month with a burst of sparkling GP Shop pets!
And blast over to the BP Shop for more shiny pets!
If you colored one of these lovely pets, please contact Visark (#185) for your payment!
Make sure to send the PSDs for these pets in to [email protected] right away! Or I will make firecrackers out of your crayons.
The Essence of July 2013 is based on the beautiful, vibrant Larkspur and will transform your pet into one of the July 2013 monthly pets!
The premium monthly item is something you guys have requested and will be ready in a few days!
*suspenseful*
Our monthly Lunaris will be flying in after the rainy Ay skies subside! I will let you know when it has arrived for our July babies.
The new monthly contests have been announced!
August Monthly Pets - BP Shop: Enter
August Monthly Pets - GP Shop: Enter
August Monthly Customs: Enter
Theme: Picnics!
Event Land!
After the Fairy and Mad Science festivities wrap up this month, we have a couple other things to look forward to. n_n
Loverly (#426) has a sweet Slashbot surprise planned for everyone, which will be kicking off on July 7th!
We also have a special new feature planned to open up on July 30th, courtesy of Helmy (#1401) and a Slashbot!
Reminders!
The Nova items have returned to the BP/GP Shops and will remain there for July and August, then will cycle back into the Premium Outlet for the month of September.
The Naulit is our Raw pet until July 15th!
Breeding Season will be coming up later this month, where we will introduce two new hybrids!
Coding Corner
We have a shiny new server! Of course, there are some temporary blips that come along with it, but we're pushing through those. :3 And I've found that .com doesn't love me as much as I thought. *still stuck on .org*
We are continuing to thoroughly tackle Adventure and Battling, and from what we've seen so far, I think you guys will like how his brain works. *wink*
Loscil is still dedicating a lot of her time to help Aywas become that much more enjoyable and efficient to use (and I think it's unanimous that we're loving her work).
Yasu has been primarily dealing with the server shenanigans and running things behind the scenes as usual. <3
We have a lot in store for you this month so you'll get to see my face in the news a lot. c: Cheers!

Making a bold return!
Site Update
Remember these? Well... they're baaaaack! You can find Half a Lesser Breeding Coin in the GP shop again, for about half the price of an LBC. For those that want just one baby, this is extremely helpful, but it comes at a compromise.
As of this newspost, all HLBCs submitted must have predicts. I repeat, any submitted HLBCs from hereon out must have predicts. Those that are already in queue prior to this newspost will be handled by staff artists, but we will require users of these coins now to submit their own babies.
We also removed the predict kickback for these since these are now fully predict-only coins. These are also not compatible with fertility potions, but are compatible with every other LBC-potential add-ons that work with predicts.
We feel that this is a good exchange for those that wanted them back, but it won't swamp our LBC artists any. It's also a fair price that it won't break your wallets when you want just one baby out of your breeding!
Hope everyone enjoys seeing them back, I know I do! :)

Mad Science Galore! - Seasonal Shop Edition
Site Update
After a series of interviews, it appears that the creature had initially gone on a rampage and escaped the laboratory in order to follow "mommy"--Professor Jamew--home to the Fissures. Laboratories do get kind of lonely at night, don't they?
So when you stock up on your mad science supplies, make sure to keep it cozy and invite plenty of pets from your lairs!
Without further ado, we officially declare the Seasonal Shop as open!
To keep your pets from getting lonely, we recommend assigning them one of these adorable fauna!
Make sure to keep your brain fueled with energy and hunger foods for those complex experiments that keep you awake through the wee hours of the morning. :3
Please use the above weapons outdoors only!
But if you don't get outside much, you can live vicariously through these books that will do wonders for your mind! (These will be readable through the library feature as soon as I kick it in the pants.)
Now, what is a mad scientist without the proper garb?
Thankfully, we have plenty for you to stock your drawers with!
You can preview all of the new HA items with the Preview Feature--just click on the Newest Items tab! c:
And there are some pets straight from the lab for you to take home as well! (Looks like some of them have been doing their own experiments... so be careful who you put them in a lair group with.)
The Tesla Orb will create a custom with up to 30% edits on four alternate line sets with a mad science theme! Your choices are:
Soli - PSD | Insi - PSD
Kaba - PSD | Quol - PSD
And for our Silver lovers...
Introducing a Monsterfetus concoction!
This item will allow you to upload the SCC below with up to 30% edits and will have power through July 6th at 11:59 p.m. After that, you can use Silver Potions to create one of these pets with Jamew's permission. :3
Click here to download the PSD!
(Made by Vulture #792!)
Remember, DNA Samples and the Adventure pets are available through June 29th at 11:59 p.m.
The deadline for the Mad Scientist contests is June 29th at 11:59 p.m. as well.
The Seasonal Shop will be open through July 5th at 11:59 p.m.
The SCC custom maker will work through July 6th at 11:59 p.m.
Be sure to thank Jamew (#2712) for putting on a fun science event for everyone to enjoy! :3
We will also be doing some giveaways and raffles this weekend!
