Rules
Since there's some confusion: The sphinx rule tightening actually isn't a very big change.
Pets with dresses and hair are still fine.
Sphinxes with a human face shape but animal ears and a more cat- or animal-like nose are still fine.
You just can't have a 100% human head pasted on an animal body anymore. Most sphinx designs weren't that extreme anyway, but a few of them were pushing it too far and the rules had to be tightened up. This rule won't actually effect that many pets, and those that it will effect will likely be easily edited to fit within the limit (turn human noses into cat noses, etc).
Also, bare human breasts are still not allowed, as anything that would require an [M] in a topic cannot be on a pet. That part of the news post was not well worded, and unfortunately resulted in some confusion. I'd like to set that straight here.
I'm compiling a more thorough followup post that will explain things in more detail and hopefully alleviate most of your fears. To reiterate: This is not a very big change and won't effect that many pets and sphinx-like pets will still be possible--they just won't be as extreme.

I just wish already approved PSD uses would be allowed since they were already approved for making originally.

https://www.aywas.com/forum/topic/199709/ I'm hoping you guys might be open to small compromises to allow people who -already spent their hard earned money on the site- to have a little more time? Not everyone has the ability to even log in every 24 hours, a lot of people will miss the notice. Hopefully at least it can be taken into consideration? Tried to come up with the most balanced idea I could. ~Ryu

Ty for the re-assurance. I indeed freaked out when people begin to post on threads saying the designs/psds are affected. I appreciate everything but I am with the rest in hoping for more time limit on getting customs made. Easter event ending today too & I would really like to try find dyes to get the pets I still need & not rushing around getting my sphinx psds sorted/colored/submitted. I know of many who need time to get the custom makers too so any help with the time constraint is appreciated too.

I still don't get why noses and human ears are a definite 'no', but human breasts are okay? o_O I mean, I have no interest in making a pet containing any of those human parts, but I guess to me the line just isn't very clearly drawn?

What about if the pet is wearing a mask/holding mask? That's not a sphinx but could possibly be considered pushing the rules... thoughts on that?

Naked human breasts are still not allowed, as I said above. Adding a little bit of "Curvyness" or something sort of resembling cleavage to make a pet more "feminine" is fine, though.

Thanks Skitty!
You rock.
