Move to new thread! MOD PLEASE LOCK!

[Papyrsatyr]

Perhaps you could have a critique station. *Would be happy to help critique forms*

See, I actually did make a thread like this. But it went dead due to people not really critiquing the forms. XD Atwood was kind enough to help a lot of people but I believe she got busy with other forms. (and being a Mod I guess). Anyway I guess I could make it again.

Edit: Nevermind, found it! viewtopic.php?f=57&t=124961#p3450480

If the center is specifically for people who want critique, and it is already built, I think it would be much better to leave the critiquing over there. Maybe the Cafe could be advertised in the first page?

Sounds like a good idea. Just can't find a good place to put it without feeling like shameless advertising of my own thread. I'll talk to Tripp about maybe adding it onto the front page in the new thread though. 83

Just out of curiosity. When it comes time for the new Agency, will it simply be moving to a new thread or will it also be getting a major revamp?

We are changing a few things around. There is talk about changing things like adoption limits, how donations will be taken in, among other things. I think the layout may be changed a bit but I cannot say for sure. Also personally I'd be willing to listen to any suggestions you guys have to make the place better. Post it here, PM to the agency or one of the staff members. 83

Thanks, Applefiend. Personally, I'd like to see the Agency cleaned up a bit. You guys all do some amazing stuff here, but I've always felt that as the Agency has grown, its also gotten a little messier too. I think it would be great if the main posts were cleaned up and organized, and the "Spotlight Pet" was moved to the top of the thread - it looks lonely and unnoticed where it is now. I'd also like to see the Agency adopt a mascot, possibly one of the donations? Oh, and I think that perhaps that the Agency's account avatar is due for a change. Its still in the old format, and it looks a little funky next to the new font.

That would be a good idea. ^^ Tripp would probably know where to put it if it goes up best when the revamp is made, probably. C=

@Kaylee: There was talk of a mascot before, I just think none of the staff members dared make it themselves. I always assumed Astra was the Agency's mascot though~

Icon change might come with the Agency revamp. (Haha typing this makes me giggle inside.) I agree with trying to clean it up a bit and perhaps moving the spotlight pet up a bit, perhaps just above the kennels.

Back in the day there were three mascots. My fursona being one of them actually. (We held a contest for it.) We eventually gave it up once we got rid of the RP opening and got down to the basics of adopting the characters though. And I agree with Tae that I think Astra makes a fairly decent mascot as of now. But we can talk about having a (new?) mascot for the agency. Personally I don't find much of a need for this though.

[crazy cranky critter]

I always thought that aswell. Also it would be cute if the staff account had her as their avatar, that is if they want to though. A mascot wouldn't be vital though because it would mostly only be used for buttons.

But I guess a mascot would be cool to have. But the problem is coming up with a general and appealing design : /

[Tripp]

i scared the crap out of myself which is why I'm wake ;-;

ok anyways. we (the staff and myself) were working on the agency mascot but it was put on the back burner, I'm going to talk to ALL the staff about trying to get it started back up. would love to have it (or at least a couple designs) ready for when we switch.

as for the critiquing cafe, i could have sworn we had a link of that up before kamkam became a staffer but it was removed along with a few other things, But it is planned to be put back up :]

Not saying anymore cause that would spoil the fun and surprise of the new thread

also today is a special day i be 22 now

[Steffi.]

I'm so excited about the new thread. I'll never adopt anything (I have waaaay too many characters as it is... T3T), but I love the creative forms and pretty designs that get put up. And I like revamping stuff. xD

Happy Birthday Tripp! (I'm assuming that means it's your birthday? xD)

[crazy cranky critter]

C: Hope you're having an especially good day then, Tripp!
Also when is the CD? Y'know, so I know how urgent it is to finish up my form.
