What's your opinion on a drawing requirement for the nursery?:

I kinda like it? I feel like maybe it should be optional? Maybe if you don't draw the art, chances of traits being passed on decreases?
If people really are willing to do art, theyre more likely to ret reward, but it's not required for those who don't really want to / have time to?

What's your opinion on a drawing requirement for the nursery?:
It's not entirely a bad idea, but there should also be a way to get tickets without it. As an example, maybe officially mated couples, not just on one time ones, either do not have this or only need to draw for their first breeding? Some users cannot draw at all and others do not have time, so that is something to consider.
However, I would suggest changing this rule.
7 - If the cat was adopted in adult stage, they can be bred right away.

Perhaps they need to be owned first for a certain amount of time? It's up to you, but it may help slow down breeding c:
A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another.
By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.

- John 13:34-35

What's your opinion on a drawing requirement for the nursery?:

I'd say yes and no.

Personally I have no qualms with drawing for a breeding, it causes me to continue to expand on my drawings skills and the family/couple dynamic. I tend to draw couples anyway I just need to upload all my drawings so I'm not worried for myself and I usually shut down asking for breedings when I do get really busy however I'd like to pull up some thoughts I had:


  1. What if the person cannot draw but wants to breed?
    I know most if not all of us on this thread are artistically talented in some way however there are plenty in CS and just in general that are not. So with that I don't feel right to fully say I'm all in. If there were other ways to show you "put effort" into the relationship from writing to just linking the couple's active role-play then I'd be all in. I do feel that there's ways to go about them that's not fully right-brained creativity based then it would be a great idea.

  2. "Shared Custody" Pairings where 2 different people have bred hazards together, what happens then?
    I'm sure a lot of us have 2 different owners for a couple your cat's a part of if they are a part of one. So the question is, who does the work? Do they both do the work on a collaborative? 2 separate pieces? What if one person doesn't know how to draw or is busy at that moment? This idea seems really tricky with 2 people involved.

  3. Define Art Piece
    Are they headshots? Busts? Fullbodies? What's the effort? Sketch ok? Lineart? colored? What would be the requirement? Would more effort dictate more rare traits? This is something to consider.

  4. People With Little Time?
    I personally fall into this category. When I started adopting hazards I had loads of time, cranking out huge forms with a ton of art and writing, now you don't see that from me too much, especially when I get busy with school. Art can be time consuming and some people get really busy from life. Willow has been extremely patient with me with this. But when side doodles along your humanities notes is the best you can do with the time you have do you want to punish them for that? Do you want to punish the other person that owns the other cat in the relationship?

I understand while some genuinely pair together after constant roleplaying others breed for rare or well-liked outcomes and I agree with you that it probably should be curbed but as a community to continue to get in new blood I think that there should be things to consider before putting this in place. This wasn't an art to play/evolve species to begin with.

I didn't originally put a lot of details in the post about this cause I thought it would make it too long, but apparently that was a mistake >v< Lemme just address the stuff that's already here now, I s'pose

- I'm of course aware that not everybody can draw and have been thinking about 'what if' scenarios for a bit, so that has been taken into consideration. Although, I would rather writing isn't involved =v="

- If two people were involved, I'd only require one piece of art, though they both could do one if they wanted to. I don't think collabs are typically something that can be relatively easily done, so yeah, nah. Unless they wanted to...?

- If this carried through, it would say how much effort had to be put in, but, as this is in the suggestion phase, that hasn't been fully fleshed out. It'd likely be like the Halloween event and require at least lines with the option to do more if you wanted. However, I would prefer that effort didn't affect rarities or traits, at this would totally mess up the breeding system orz I never really feel qualified to judge that anyways cause like...I wasn't watchin'...I don't know :s

- I totally get the time issue, you don't even need to bother |''D Again, I'm still thinking this out to try and make it hypothetically as fair as possible.

- I kinda doubt I'll change the lack of time limit on the nursery. I never really liked those and growing cats just have one cause it feels a little weird and sometimes spammy not to

- Also, this isn't a step towards making hazards an "draw to play" as ya called it. It's definitely not my intention to punish anyone. Idk, I can't seem to expand on this without making it look like a sob story, so we'll just leave it there for now and call it an 'eh'

Mkay, double post cause I got the stuff


-The adults lines have been tweaked in the face, neck, and front leg areas. This also gets rid of this....nice lil dude.... Image
-Things like claws, paw pads, inner ears, and so on now are on separate layers for easier coloring
-Apparently, I forgot to trim the colors by making the cat white on a dark bg. Done now!
-Freakin Circuit Rot is now spelled correctly
-Labels have a sticker layer to make them more visible on light bgs
-Signature is now located on the cats themselves, but there is still a layer for the one in the corner just in case...?
-The cave background's like the oldest one, so that's been redone
-AlleyBalley is no longer an artist for the Color-in Center! Sadly, that means her workload goes to me and I'll have to finish two sets of slots before opening them again, but...y'know
-Color-in Center's rules have been edited a small bit - nothing major

Quick question about the rules:
Rule four states that
Hazard Cats cannot under any circumstance be sold (even if the price is free)

This seems to indicate gifting is not allowed, since gifting is like selling something for free?
But then rule 18 says
You may gift a hazard you own to another user

So I'm just a little confused, haha

Gifting is allowed, I just need to be notified ovo
Rule 4 is the way that it is cause we've had some issues with cats being handed out on threads like the CAAA. So basically, giving a cat to someone specific is okay, throwing it out into the ocean for anybody to pick up isn't, if that makes sense
I'll try and reword those on the main page, as they're a bit wonky =v=
