This is strange because I've always known my stone to be blue topaz. Though Zircon is basically the same color. I've never known it to be Turquoise, however. Or such a dark blue as tanzanite, always a lighter blue. From my own mini research in the last 2 mins, what it boils down to is anything that is a regular blue, light blue being March, and dark blue being september.

lol, Yeah, I noticed that too. Apparently if it's a similar color it counts. xD
Though I think it's mostly because not everyone is knowledgeable when it comes to stone/gem types or names so they often get mistaken for one or the other if they have a similar color. And even the same type of stone/gem can have a different hue depending on the deposit it's from (take the rubies on the first chart for example. I've seen both the red and more pinkish shades used, and seen rubies and garnets be confused because of hue). Then of course you've got to consider the different regions and cultures of the world probably play a factor in it too.

I'd also like to see more snake ones but it might just be me. *fidget*
Though I do wonder why there isn't a white malk dragon stamp?
On trade stamps: can there be "random trades welcome/closed" and similar ones ("Looking for hoards/rares/species/items", "Don't want species/items")

(They're both accepted birthstones for November, but as I couldn't figure out what color the topaz was supposed to be I went with citrine.)
As for December, I don't see anything that says December's birthstone is topaz. I've only seen turquoise, zircon (which comes in a range of colors), and tanzanite (which is blue/purple, I think). I wouldn't mind making an alternative, but I don't want to make something that isn't actually the birthstone. (:
That would be really helpful c; I have never heard of citrine and I only used topaz! XD thank you anyways c;
