Autumn Season & Halloween Holiday
Dress Up Contest
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

COPPA Friendly!

About the Contest:
In spirit of the fall season and Halloween coming up later this month (they're both my personal favorites) I have decided to host a dress up contest where I will be giving away many pets and some items!

I would like to give a free (wishlist if possible) pet to everyone who enters.
The majority of my prizes will be fall/Halloween themed.
However, if I run out of themed-prizes, I'll dive into my trade groups for more prizes, which may not be Halloween/fall themed.

This contest will end on Oct. 28th.
I will then select winners (and there will be many!) and send out the prizes in trades to the winners.

Here's my prize group!
What's in there, you ask?
The October Store Pets
Rares
Uncommons
Common and below prize bundles
AND some items from the C$ Store!

Click HERE to see the pets in my prize list, and click HERE to see the listed items.



Dress-Up Contest Theme:
Please dress your pet up in light of Halloween or the autumn season!

Halloween Theme:
Scary Costumes
Character/People Costumes
Anything Halloween related!

Autumn Theme:
Anything related to what inspires you about autumn!

Be Creative!
I'll be looking for effort and imaginative use of items!

If you have trouble identifying someone else's dressed pet, you can view it without items!

Open up the dressed pet image in its own window and add &noitems=1 right in front of .jpg in the image URL. Press enter to reload the image with no items! Try it out!
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃
Some of our early litters were available for adoption for longer than just a month!

If you have trouble finding such a pet in the archive, try going back further. The pets will appear in the month they were first released, even if the one you have was adopted months later.
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃
You can view more than 20 pets at once!

When you view one of your pet groups, simply add &pageSize=100 (or any other number) at the end of the page URL and press enter. Keep in mind, the more pets you choose to display the longer the page takes to load!

You can save a draft of your PM if you're not ready to post it yet, but don't want to lose your progress!

Instead of hitting 'Submit', hit 'Save draft' next to it. You can manage your drafts by clicking on 'Manage PM drafts' in the side bar of your PM inbox. You can bring back the PM through that setup, or you can create a new PM and hit 'Load draft' which should be appearing next to the preview and sending options.

Instead of hitting 'Submit', hit 'Save draft' next to it. You can manage your drafts by going to your account settings and clicking on 'Manage drafts' in the side bar of your account setting overview.

You can enter hex codes in our Oekaki to use specific colors of characters!

Just click the bar that shows the color you selected in the color picker and a little pop up window will show up where you can enter the hex code.
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃
It is possible to display your Oekaki images in different sizes if you post them in the forums or on other websites!

Part of the image URL will contain &size=large and you can replace the 'large' in it with medium, small or gallery.
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃
Oekakis are saved as jpg files but you can also make them display as png files!

Right click on your Oekaki to get the image URL. Part of the URL will contain &format=auto. Simply replace that part with &format=png. Now you can also show off your characters or adoptables with a transparent background if you hid the background layer in the Oekaki.
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃
You can contact staff privately if you need help or want to report something to us!

Hover over 'Help' underneath the header image and then click on 'Get help from staff', or click on 'Help' and then click on 'Contact us'. Both links will lead you to a form you can fill out and submit to us.
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃
When your PM inbox fills up, you will still be notified of new messages but they will be held back until you make some room!

When there's not enough space for new PMs there will be a link at the top of your inbox saying 'Release on-hold messages'. Delete some PMs from your inbox to make room, then click the link so you can receive your waiting messages.
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃
If you want to move many pets from one group to another but not all, you can easily select multiple pets without clicking each one individually!

Tick one of the pets you want to select and then hold down shift while ticking another pet further in the group. All pets between those two pets will be selected automatically!
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃
We have a bookmark feature that lets you track threads you like or remove them from the list once you're bored of them!

At the bottom of each thread, you will find a link to bookmark the thread you are viewing; and you will find a link to view and manage your bookmarks above the logout button!
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃
Every time you adopt a horse or pony, you have a small chance to recieve a very valuable zebra instead!

If you've found a zebra and would like to trade it, make sure you ask staff or knowledgeable members for advice so you can get a fair offer for it. You might be surprised by how much it is worth!
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃
We have a team page!

It is linked at the bottom right of pages on our site and you can find out a little more about our current and past staff members there!
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃
Pets turn a day older at the time you adopted them!

If you are ever unsure if your pets already aged or not, check the age on your pet's profile page. They are 0 days old when you adopt them, so when you adopt on the 1st of a month, they will be 1 day old on the 2nd, precisely 24 hours after the moment you adopted!
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

Hey, I don't know if it is right to ask this here, because is a pretty simple (and stupid) question.
I got this message while trading one of my pets that I got from the pound. Are those messages normal to happen with pound pets?

(i was heartbroken when i readed this message cri, i didnt traded it in the end)

Yes, that happens automatically.

To prevent those messages from being sent to you, you can go to the Rules, folders, & settings section of your PM inbox and add a new rule along the lines of:

If > Subject > begins with > A message from your pet > Delete message

And then click "Add rule" and you're all set!

Keep in mind that you will still get a "1 new message" notification even with the rule in place—sadly there is no way to disable that—but it will go away when you open your inbox and the message itself will not actually be there.

Understanding My Contest Rules

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

You may enter 1-2 different pet dress-ups.
(If 2 dress-ups, they must both be on the same post.)
----- I'll allow up to two dress-ups per person. There will be more variety AND someone can have the opportunity to make a Halloween and Autumn dress-up if they want to. This way, nobody has to choose between the two themes if they like both. ^^ However, if you want to create two Halloween dress-ups or two Autumn dress-ups (instead of one of each theme), that's okay too!
----- The dress-ups need to be on the same post so that I can easily find both. If your dress-ups are on separate posts, I'll likely only go with the first dress-up and ignore the second due to this rule being broken and at my own convenience.

You may only win one prize/prize-bundle.
----- Even though you're allowed two dress-ups, you can only win one prize/prize bundle because I want plenty of people to be able get a prize.

You may not enter the contest on behalf of a friend.
----- This would make cheating less liable to happen, and it makes organization easier on me. Since COPPA'd can enter this contest, it's pointless for someone to enter for someone else.

Please un-check the 'Attach a signature' box in your post.
----- This will make sure signatures do not show in the post, which makes things easier on me. Since many people post their pets in their signatures (I know I do!), it could cause me to mistakenly think they are a dress-up. Overall, it causes less clutter.

Do NOT send me a trade/suggestion requesting the pet/item prizes.
----- It's annoying and rude. If I get any requests like this, I will not accept your entry for the contest. If you win a prize, I will send it to you ASAP. ^^
