Ask the Staff!

What's been your favorite staff/general helper color palette to work with in regards to designing a pet?

Probably 2018, the colors worked really well together and I was really fond of how cute I was able to make the design

Who picks the colors for the staff pup litter each year? Does Tess and Nick do it, or, is it a collective vote on certain colors from all staff?

I really liked working with last year's staff palette! Would have loved to work with 2011's staff colours though ;o;

Its a collective effort where all staff that are interested in participating can suggest palettes, then we all vote and the winning palette is the one we use c:

The advent dogs that were only uncommon when I first joined CS, not completely surprising but definitely made me feel old ._.

The fairy store rats surprised me a bit! And I was very happy to see so many of the 09 Easter buns get their fancy rainbow tag c:

How do staff get custom pets? Also, to those who have custom pets, do you show yours off? Why, or why not? Hope these arent too invasive! Im just really curious cause i heard the legend of the custom "pet rock" tess gave away!

There’s a thread here explaining how custom pets are distributed :^)

Personally I do like to show mine off and dress her up for events and such because I’m happy to have her in my collection. I commissioned Doglike for her (a fantastic artist lol), she’s my sweet dog irl <3
