Site Update
At approximately 5:00 AM AST this morning, our coder logged everyone out of their accounts in order to fix a few issues that we encountered last week. There's nothing to worry about - it's not a bug or a glitch, so you do not have to report it.

Yet ANOTHER Call for Artists!
Events
I grin. "Yes, this newspost again."
"Why?"
"Because it's a necessary evil."
"I hate you, but fine."
That's right, it's time for a Breeding Artists Wanted post!
Who are our lucky coins this time? Well...
Scribble and Smudged Scribble are first up to bat! With a pay starting at 25 GP per breeding and adding 5 GP per extra offspring after the first per breeding, it's pretty dang good, if I do say so myself. Of course, you can also opt in for the equivalent of Artist Credit if you'd prefer!
Interested in Scribble/Smudged Scribble? Check out this thread here!
Next on the list is our very own Rusted team! They're all masters of redrawing markings to fit new bases for 10 GP per breeding, so if you feel like that's your thing, then feel free to check out this thread and give Kozmotis #48993 a shout!
And we're not done with Kozmotis' teams just yet! The Painted teams are in need of some new faces, particularly Painted Lesser. Follow prompts and mix edits -- or not, for Painted Metal -- and get yourself either 9 GP per PMBC or 11 GP per PLBC!
We've got two threads for these, so check this one for PMBC and this one for PLBC!
But wait! There's more!
That's right, for the low, low price of sending a PM to Kita #3988 you can join the Radioactive team! You know all those fun mutants that grace our Welcome Back page? You could make those! I hear they're very fun to make! And you can get paid to do it too -- 4 GP per Mutant and 8 GP per Metal.
If you're interested in this wild Coin, check out this thread.
And, if you call Kita with your application right now, you can also join our esteemed Metal breeding team at no cost to you! Mix markings and colors on pets of the same base and... Guess what? You can get some GP! 8 GP per offspring to be exact! And trust us here at headquarters, there's no shortage of work in this queue, so you're free to mix and match to your heart's content.
Want more information? We've got one more thread for you to check out!
....
............
Oh, you think I'm done talking to you? WRONG.
We're still -- and always! -- looking for artists for our GCC, MDT, and SCC Panels. If you have applied for one of these, or would like to, please PM Juke #7625. Please be sure to include if you would like to be paid with GP or Artist Credit and I'll get you sorted as quick as humanly possible!

A Few Updates!
Site Update
The Art Gallery has been archived and moved out of the Games page and into the Archives tab.
You can still see all the past entries there - there's 215 pages of brilliant artwork to browse!
This does not mean that we won't have gallery-like contests in the future, but it does mean that we won't be posting them to this page.
It's taken a lot of incubating, but at long last the Insi Egg Plushie
(won from completing a museum collection)
is ready to hatch and yield its title!
You can use the egg from your inventory and adorn yourself with the forum title "All Sewn Up"!
You did it!
Today I accepted Daevo designs 74, 75, 76 and 77!
(Well, roughly, we have a few more designs but sadly they were below 15% or above 50%!)
That means it's NEW PET TIME and it is my pleasure to introduce to you the Yisyii!
Same rules apply as last time:
75 designs between 15% and 50% submitted to the Edit Repository for this genus will unlock a new lineart for the Portal.
Which we actually have sitting and waiting. Perched a little, perhaps...
We all look forward to seeing the amazing things you can do with this genus!

Monthly HA Contest
Contests
The winning HA sets have been placed into their respective shops, and will be in stock until 11:59pm AST on June 7th!
At the time of the poll closing, there were two entries tied for third place - and so both have been placed into the Premium Outlet shop.
If this has a serious affect on the sales then it may be in the future that staff will choose between the two tied entries.
The HA Contest has been with us for a long time, and as the years have gone on it's gained fewer and fewer entrants. Having noticed this downward trend for a while we've tried to think of ways to improve the feature, but ultimately not come up with anything that we feel would be concrete.
So that's where you come in!
I've made a thread in the Suggestions forum for you to come and lend us a hand. We want to hear all your ideas on how to make this contest fairer, more fun, and more worthwhile to people.
Please remain respectful, but feel free to throw out even your wackiest ideas.
The sad part of the above thread is that at the close of the current round, we will be disabling the HA contest until we've had time to analyse the data, look at your ideas, and see what we can do to improve the game.
It's not forever, but it may be for some time.
I know this will be upsetting to those of you that enjoy the contest, but I promise to bring you something bigger and better when it does come back.

Some small announcements!
Site Update
This is also your reminder to download any exotic PSDs for pets you have purchased from the Black Friday sale. Once we begin prepping for the Mayday Sale, you will no longer have these PSDs available to you. Please double check that you have downloaded all of your PSDs from the archives page by May 6th!
It has come to our attention that for the past 3 months, the monthly high score lists have been rewarding SP incorrectly. Yasu is currently working on creating a script to fix this - those that were rewarded more SP than was earned by making their way to the high score list will have the extra SP removed from their account. If you were supposed to have been awarded SP and either did not receive SP or received the wrong amount, that SP will be awarded to your account.
Have you voted in the HA Coloration Poll yet? Well, if you haven't, you should! It ends tomorrow, Sunday, May 3rd, at approximately noon AST!

Welcome to May!
Site Update
Starting off, we have our GP Shop and BP Shop pets!
If you colored one of these pets, please contact Lacia (#25044) 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 please make sure you keep the links active for two weeks (at least until mid-May) so we have time to snag 'em!
The Essence of May 2020 will turn your active pet into one random May 2020 pet listed above! The image will be updated once we have it in our possession.
A glimmering Lunaris friend has squeaked on by to wish those born in May a happy birthday! Emeralds are its favorite gem, and it will bring grass in from outside to cover its collection up in order to hide it!
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!
If you missed your Lunaris or have further questions regarding them, please contact Chelle (#7310).
This month's Premium Item is the Fancy Spring Custom Crystal! This floral crystal can be used to create an up to 50% edited version of the applicable seasonal lines!
The new monthly contests have been announced!
June Monthly Shop Pets: Enter
June Monthly Customs - Fairies: Enter
Good luck with your entries!
This month's Jeweled Custom Crystal pets are by !
In honor of the upcoming Mayday Sale, we will be holding Mayhem May for Jeweled Crystals, meaning you may create any previous jeweled design, from any month. The only catch is that you must put the month and year the design is under in your User Notes. This is due to the sheer number of available designs, and we do not want the administrator becoming overwhelmed. Failure to do so can result in your submission being rejected. You can find the designs ine Jeweled Crystal, Jeweled Hybrid Crystal, and Jeweled Rare Crystal Knowledge Base articles.
If you want to be a Jeweled Custom Artist, please visit the hiring thread!
"Hey Diddle Diddle,
The Oske and the fiddle,
The Taurus jumped over the moon
The Melo laughed,
To see such craft,
And the Palli ran away with the spoon" - Kirawra (#11849)
With our spring festivities wrapping up, the Egg Field no longer requires you to deposit an egg before picking another one up! Once the field is clear, it will be officially closed. Please make sure that you have everything downloaded or noted down from any eggs you have opened, as you will not be able to access your log after is it closed. The winners for the Spring Festival contests will be announced on Sunday, May 3rd.
Congratulations to Haberdasher (#33507) for winning the Engagement Ring! At this time, Raffle Crystals have now been retired, and the game has been removed from the Game List.
This is also a reminder to all artists who would like to participate in the Mayday Exotic Sale that all sets must be finished and the PSDs uploaded by May 7th! Artists, if you have any questions, please contact Marie as soon as possible. As a reminder for anyone who is looking to participate in Mayday outside of creating a set, the sale will run from May 14th to May 19th. A breakdown for the sale will be posted on May 7th, though it is the same as previous sales if you are already familiar with them or would like to peek back to Black Friday for a refresher prior to the news post!

Release the Whales
New Feature
"If you have a moment to spare, I could use your help in some very valuable marine research! We're currently studying the Scarl and to complete our research, we need more Mermaid's Purses."
It seems while everyone has been busy exploring the far corners of Ay (for snapdragons), the Museum has opened a new Marine Research department! If you have a Mermaid's Purse and help them out, you may just walk out with a whale of friend!
Welcome the Orcinus!
The Orcinus is a new Rare genus that can be obtained through the Museum Marine Research feature!
Once you visit the Marine Research page, you will find yourself on a page listing whether or not you have any Mermaid's Purse. You can turn in a Mermaid's Purse and receive 1 Research Point.
Once you have accumulated points, the Curator will offer you special items for a certain number of points.
Carved Whale Charm
This item costs only 2 Research points, but will allow you to upload a Metal Orcinus custom!
Orcarina
This item is automatically credited to you when you reach 5 Research points, and will allow you to upload an Orcinus custom with up to 50% edits!
Unlike the Mermaid's Purse, these items are not bound to account. So if you find yourself lucky (or unlucky) with finding Mermaid's Purse to turn in yourself, you can buy and sell the Orcinus custom makers. You can find the PSD by clicking on the Orcinus above or visiting the Pet Genus Guidebook page!
So if you want to pick up a new friend or two (or three, who's counting?), make your way to the Museum Marine Research department!
