In an effort to keep your virtual lungs lookin' clean as a whistle, we're ceasing the sale of tobacco-related items on Gaia. Aside from being all gross and unhealthy in real life, we don't think they make your avatar look any sexier.
If you have any pipes, cigarettes, or cigars in your inventory, you're welcome to sell 'em back to the shops for a nice, tidy profit.

At Gaia, we take great pride in employing some of the most talented artists in the business. You've seen their work all over the site, gussying up everything from manga and mini-comics to items and zOMG! creatures. Aside from being talented illustrators, they're also actual human beings, most of whom have their own personalities and everything.
Better yet, they happen to be pretty funny, interesting and helpful. We wanted to give you a chance to get to know the artists, check out some of their personal work and maybe even cadge a few pointers. They've been hard at work setting up some forum threads to introduce themselves and showcase their best stuff-- visit our Art Walk homepage to see what's up.

Howdy, pardners-- we just wanted to check in with a couple of quick news items...
New Forum: Supernatural
Hey, there's a new forum! Just in time for Halloween, we've dreamt up a brand new place to discuss vampires, werewolves, bigfoots (bigfeet?), yetis, apocryphal lake monsters, ghosts, fairies, Santas, etc. Our new Supernatural Forum is a permanent place for all you aspiring paranormal investigators to meet, shake hands, and exchange your gooey ectoplasm in a safe, nurturing environment.
Quick Reply!
See the little down arrow on the right side of the "reply" button in the forums? Click on that to post a reply without even leaving the page! You won't get all the fancy formatting buttons, but if you just want to make a quick post without leaving the page, it's perfect timesaver for today's busy forum poster on the go.
New Homepage Test
Over the next few weeks, we're planning on trying out some new looks for the logged-out homepage, so a certain percentage of you guys might see something like this when you visit Gaia:
Each of the top tabs will showcase a different feature of Gaia; we just wanted to show new unregistered visitors some of the best stuff without overwhelming them with a ton of content.
There's not really much else to tell-- we just didn't want you to be freaked out when you visited Gaia and it looked all cool and unfamiliar. Beyond that, there aren't any changes to the site's registration process or anything.
Office Costume Survey: Vote!
It being Halloween and all, we decided to have a little costume contest around the Gaia office. Being staunch believers in democracy and egalitarianism, we thought we'd let you, the people, vote on which ones are the best. Voting is open till Monday, so please check it out!
