Slashbot Reminder for 2013
Site Update
If you have a Slashbot slot and have a use planned for 2013 and I have NOT talked to you about it in the last 2-3 days, please send me a PM to ensure you get your date reserved in my calendar so I can plan accordingly. Even if you're not doing an event, please send me a message with your preferred timeframe.
Note: Please include the details of your event/use if you start a new conversation, but preferably just bump up the discussion we're already having for my reference.
Thank you! :3

My inbox always gets hit with a major avalanche every December and it takes me a bit longer than my typical 3-day response time to dig myself out. Rest assured, though my inbox is something of a black hole, it did not eat your PM! It's there, and I'll get to it asap. :3 For any urgent requests you can send a new message with URGENT in the title and I will do my best to prioritize!

Stormy days bring the adventure pets to stay!
Pets
Sounds like a storm brewing in the distance... But it's bringing you some new adventure pets!
Actually maybe that storm was just the Arion being quite loud with its hooves.
If you want to design some Adventure pets, go and post them in their respective threads here! Remember, you can earn SP!

Free Photoshop!
Site Update
EDIT- Well, it looks like this no longer applies. :( CS2 isn't being reported as free to download anymore.
Hi artists,
For those of you who aren't aware, Adobe just released Creative Suite 2 (which includes Photoshop) for free. Go read about it here.
It's an older version of their programs, but older is better than nothing, and it's FREE!
Go forth and make beautiful art!

Art Gallery
Contests
The art gallery has been judged!
The theme was New Years Around the Aywas World and we were greeted with a batch of celebratory submissions welcoming in 2013!
Here are our featured winners:
They won:
Congratulations!
If you're wondering what that shiny item is, it's a Nova Custom Crystal.
As its description says, this special custom crystal allows you to create an uncommon Ay genus custom pet with up to 75% lineart edits. This item, along with its Orb counterpart, will be released into the shops for everyone very soon!
Now, back to the Art Gallery!
Our current theme is Oatmeal Creations in honor of January being National Oatmeal Month!
Plus, food-themed art galleries are always a huge hit. :3
Your goal is to create something Aywas-related out of oatmeal (any kind you want, cooked or raw). You may use other edible elements, but the oatmeal should be featured.
Here are the other upcoming themes!
January 13 - January 19: Vynes as Houseplants
January 20 - January 26: Bath time for Aywas pets!
January 27 - February 2: Puzzle Game
