Here are the items you'll want to collect as trade-in currency after Dec 25.

Give lots and lots of gifts that your friends can't open until the 25th! =D Leave cute notes with them too.

SNOWBALLS!
I sent you one but it's up to you to find more in the Holiday Forest! If you throw one at a friend, it'll tell them they got smacked in the face with a snowball. 8'D
So start a snowball war!
Special Items!
There are a lot of new items in the GP Shop, so let me explain them all to you:
The stocking items rise in price depending on how rare the prize inside is. They cannot be opened until the 25th. The prize is at least equal to the price of the stocking (for example, the Basic Stocking is 5 GP, and the worst you can get is a Delicious Eggnog, also worth 5 GP). The Elaborate Stocking is the only stocking item that might contain a Holiday Breeding Pendant.
These are new breeding items that allow you to breed two different species pets. They do not produce hybrids. For example if you breed a chiro to a meep, you'll get offspring either chiro or meep that are colored like the parents (like a BC baby). You can breed SCCs with these.
This is a special custom creating item that allows you to make the uncommon species, 30% edits, in a Holiday-style theme.
When your pet eats this, it has a 5% chance to find a random custom-creating crystal (no unbreedable and no dawn crystals out of this).
This you can't open until the 25th. It will produce one of a couple Holiday different rare species pets - eg, Lunaris, Vion, hybrids, etc. Collect a bunch to try your hand at the whole set of rares. :) There will be around 5-10 depending on where I put the rares for the currency shop.
Yasu's still working on this one, but it gives you a 10% chance of a random breeding with another pet who uses this item and succeeds also.
This item can only be opened on the 25th. Pretty self explanatory, it opens into a random breeding item. It can produce either BC, Holiday BC, Metal BC, Half LBC, Lesser BC, Evil BC, or Radioactive BC.
This item contains one of each of the December presents: one of each stocking, a Holiday BC, Holiday Coal, one Flame Pudding, one Holiday Aywa Gift, one Eggnog, and one Random BC package. Pretty nice value if you want to get all the items.
A couple of items (Fertility Potion, Raw Gold and Blue crystals) were moved to the BP shop to spend sometime there.
Okay, that's all I got for you tonight. In the afternoon I'll come back with GP and BP shop pets, high scores, premium item, and so forth.

SPECIES TUTORIAL!
Site Update
Hey, hey you!
Check out the awesome Species Tutorial that Kyu and Mauri made!
To make the species tutorial fit, I moved Search and Item List to the "Shopping" tab. I figure the search suits that tab better anyway.

Saturday madness?
Pets
Instead of explore pets, I have some different pets for you to contemplate...
Back in June we ran a contest where people could submit colorations on alternate hybrid linearts. The idea for the pets was dropped but the images are still so pretty D=
And a Vion, because... pretty images never being used! D=
So I figured out a different way to release them!
How do you get them, you might ask? Well... there are a bunch of items you seem to hate...
Annoying Item Bazaar
Trade in those annoying items!
Now that there are more than just the Cheetah Quetzal released, here's how the alt hybrids will work. There will be others released in time, so...
You can breed them to anything with a Breeding Coin (same as any pet), but if you want to use a same-species coin on them, you can only breed them to an alt hybrid of their same species (so the lineart has to match). You can't make customs of them at this time.
Have fun!
EDIT: Tweaked the prices in the shop based on the amount that exist on the site =D

Winner Winner Turkey Dinner
No chicken dinners here, because that's just lame.
Here is the winner of the Thanksgiving news post contest:
wispytearz (#9634)
I've only been here for two months or so and in that time have won, been randomly given and easily earned so much awesome stuff. You guys give so much back to the community. On many sites, it is difficult to get much of anything without paying or devoting several hours a day to the site. Here, a person with a life can still have a good time and get lots of really awesome things. When I first looked into how much customs cost, I didn't think I'd ever have even one and now I have 7, not to mention the hundreds of other really pretty pets. You guys are awesome ^_^
This user won a chicken turkey dinner and a pair of Flame Custom Orbs
In other news...

Pets and Items!
Site Update
Flame Custom Orb in BP Shop for 6,500,000 - 3 Days Only!
Why now? Well... this item introduced three species of ara uncommon pets. The first you met a bit ago, the cerby. But now I colored the other two, the Suune and the Unus, so this item is 100% ready to go :)
Flame-anythings don't usually get released this easily for consumption, but hey I colored two pets tonight so it's worthy of celebration! woooooo
Oh you might notice that the Blue Custom Orb and Gold Custom Orb had some price adjustments in the BP shop to better match market price.
We | Are | Awesome !
You can find the other two pets' psds in the Pet Colorations Submissions section of the forum. Yaaaaay!
Want to try winning a free Flame Custom Orb? Be the first person in a news comment to tell me what this comes from:
EDIT: Kiara. (#1094) correctly guessed, it was an Autumn Foliage Chiro. (:
Ta da!
Good luck and have fun!
