All good things must come to an end.
This serves as your one and only reminder that PPP 2025 ends TONIGHT!
You will have until FEBRUARY 28TH, 2026, 11.59PM AST (the little clock at the top right corner of the Aywas page!) to submit your predictions to qualify for PPP perks! Late submissions will be rejected.
But don't fret! If your predictions get knocked back for any reason (other than late submissions), you will have a 48-hour window to upload fixes. Please don't try and take advantage of this, I will be very disappointed.
For the sake of transparency, it will take me a few weeks to get around to processing the raffle entries. I resume studying next week (yuck) and a few Very Big commitments through March and April. I will do my best to be timely, but I appreciate your patience!
Also, I've recently seen an increase in users overstepping acceptable boundaries when leaving breeding notes regarding colour addons.
'Light requests' are perfectly fine, such as "no orange please" or "I prefer bright colours". However, breedings completed by the site are not commissions, and they should not be treated as such.
Please keep in mind:
-A user can dictacte exact colours when using a Painted Vial, or a Painted Bottle in the case of edited coins, or when using a Painted Coin (PMBC/PLBC)
- If using the Artist's Palette, artists are fully permitted to ignore user requests, as it is artist's choice
- For other colour-changing addons, like the Neutral Nuggets or Cool Blue Pet Carrier, artists may ignore specific requests as long as the result fulfills the addon's stated specifications
This is a good time to check your breeding notes; if I find any that overstep these guidelines you will be contacted to fix them or your breeding will be refunded. Thank-you for understanding!
Alright cya later gamers 😎

As an artist -- THANK YOU for asking users to fix those notes. I've seen *so many* that are commission level on even sketch and it really does make you either feel like a villain for going against them or make the breeding unbearable because you've been asked to do something you may not want to -- and in both cases, it runs the risk of tanking your feedback rating :')

Sunny (#41814) - Thank-you! The grind never stops 😭
Corbeau (#7625) - If you ever encounter a breeding with these kinds of notes, feel free to send me a message with the breeding ID and I will look into it :^)

Corbeau (#7625) I do my most best to never create a breeding note that would distress the artist. And I try to make it very clear that no matter what I said - it's all in the artist's hands and choices. Gotta follow the Muse of the artist.
I mean, maybe the Muse sees something that I couldn't see and knows better cos is artist - I am not a full blown artist (I just color).
Not to mention... I want my breedings to be FUN for the artist to do and to be enjoyed in the creation of whatever. That's the best thing to get from artists, imho.
Breedings that were fun for the artist to create typically end up WAY WAY WAY better than breedings that were not enjoyable to create. So, Corbeau, if you ever come across ANY of my breedings and the note doesn't inspire you - then you feel free to IGNORE my note and follow your Muse.
That goes for ALL the breeding artists out there doing any of my breedings. Have fun. Art should always be FUN. :) :)
I appreciate allllll the hard work you all put in creating all these customs for people, the beautiful site pets, everything artistic on this site. That's not just for the breeding artists, but for every artist who have done anything artistic for the site!!! :) :) Goes for every non-site artist, too because without you, we would not have as many amazing customs running all over, either!!! :D
