Site Update
A couple of exciting changes are here for custom items!
First, the Private Item page is now available (and accessible through the inventory page). You can buy additional copies of your private items through the page as well as submit private items to be accepted by admin. The script that tried to assign items to their owners couldn't find them all, so if you're missing any, submit them here to be assigned to your account.
If you have any specific requests for your item that cannot be done through the form, you can direct them toward Visark #185 as normal.
Now, the changes:
Custom Item Packages have been reduced in price to 10 GP, down 50% from their original price. However - outside from items already requested to Visark, of course - the site will no longer provide artwork for custom items.
While you may not notice anything different, the Genus page has been replaced with the Genus Guidebook. Visually it doesn't look all that different, but it automatically updates when a new genus is added, so no more waiting for genuses to be added manually!
The Genus Guidebook is being expanded to include a lot of new features too, including lots of extra information about our awesome pet genuses, so look forward to that soon.

It'll be considered, but at the moment the main item artist hasn't been replying to me so it isn't really feasible to keep offering item art.

Completely awesome, Slash, thank you!! Will there be a way to commission the item artists in the future through other means or is that off that table now?

Question about private items, we only need to register them as private if we don't want the site to generate them, correct?

the new new the Genus Guidebook, but quick question. Any chance of getting that nice link back on it to the alt/event lines? I'll admit I always went there to find that thread because I always seemed to spend forever hunting it when I went through the forums.

I am glad things are being automated now... But this make me abit sad.. the site will no longer provide artwork for custom items. <--- Some of us have no ability to make art or wish to have the item artist do in similar style to our current item so we can own things which look similar... Can we consider an add-on which allows us to still request on how our item should look like? (Describe it like how we used to describe it to Vis?)
