News Update - 8-31-2004
I want to aplogize for the length of time it takes me to complete orders. I am getting them done as quickly as I can but lately I haven't even been able to get online every day. I still want very much to stay open and continue to take orders. I hope to continue to release new poses, and that the trickle of business continues. I'm doing well at work though we are being sent home on undertime, an hour or two early almost every day. Not yall's problem though. sweatdrop I'll be okay. I'm going apartment hunting tomorrow, will be doing laundry, and shopping around for my tablet today. My husband promised me a tablet for my birthday and we have the money now so I'm looking around. His birthday is soon, September 11th, and I'm getting him a really nice set of headphones. xd My days are usually when I work on Pixel Twin orders but I've already finished all the orders I had, so I don't have to worry about them. I know this isn't really all news that is applicable to the shop, but it's about my life so... *shrugs* Anyway that's all for today's update! More to come!

No New Orders! crying - 9-18-2004
Sorry I haven't been online. I've been working hard and I haven't had a chance to get online or work on the computer at all. I will be working on them again soon. Even today I should be able to work a little bit on orders. I got a tablet for my birtday, about 2 months late actually. I've been practicing a bit. I wish I could be on the computer more. I really miss the shop, and even the simple pleasure of drawing. Until further notice I am not taking ANY new orders. I will finish what is on my list and then perhaps take some new orders. I do appreciate all the business, I really do. I just haven't been able to use my computer much lately. I should be able to use it a little more now. On a random note I donated blood yesterday. When I got to work there was a blood drive going on, and I am a donor so I figured why not? I almost made myself bleed when I went to sleep because I forgot, and tried to life a boxfan with that arm. sweatdrop No worries though. Well that's all for this update.

Still bogged down.. sweatdrop - 10-5-2004
Well I completed a couple of orders. Sorry I haven't been online but I just haven't been getting any internet time at all lately. I feel bad about how slow I've been going but I'm doing better now. Hopefully I'll be able to finish up some more orders today and tomorrow. I went to do Qu33n's order and discovered that I am missing a reference. I probably forgot to save the image. sweatdrop Ah well, I'll just PM her about it. I'm hoping to get some more of the huge order for MiyuW completed soon. I had to stop alltogether for a while to avoid burnout. Not, because I hate doing Pixel Twins, because that is simply not the case, but because when I have a ton of work in my waiting list it stresses me out, cause I'm a perfectionist and I hate to make people wait, but I also know that that much work takes time. sweatdrop Hope no one is too upset with me. I promise I am not just going to forget the shop. I just needed a brief break. I also really was not getting any internet time either. My family probably thinks I'm dead or something. I owe several members hand-written letters, and a few of them, an e-mail or two. I have been working on items for The Sims lately, but I'm burned out on that right now, which means I'm charged and refreshed, and ready to work on Pixel Twins again. I have to go do laundry today, and go place an order for my hoodie, so I can pick it up on payday. I get paid this Friday.. Not going to buy anything except the hoodie, and a pair of jeans. I'm saving up for the deposits so I can move out of my mother-in-law's place. sweatdrop Blarg. Eh, that's all then, thanks for reading! 4laugh

Penguin Breedables xd - 10-13-2004
I've been working on the breedables again. I've reworked a few things and shouldn't get burnt out so quickly now. Keep an eye out for the eggs. They will be released here in the thread sometime soon. I may sell the eggs one at a time. You may or may not have noticed that Aldie is awake and active. He is a teenager now. Most of the pandas will become teenagers soon. A blanket is required, remember, so if you don't have one, I suggest you buy one. If anyone is no longer interested in their panda, PM me, and I will find your panda a good home. Also, I will be releasing another fox for auction sometime soon. The winner will have a choice of black or red and will get a care package for no additional charge, which includes a blanket in the color of their choice, (must choose from the six colors shown) a stuffed animal of their choice, (yes there are now fox and penguin plushies), and a free treat. I have also been working with my tablet on some gift art, trying to work through the burnout regarding my regular PixelTwins. If you want to see what I drew, check the third breedables post. As there is no other info there right now, I have posted links to them. I will draw a portrait for the first three people who post with this keyword "purple penguin". Alright that's all for this update.

Temporarily Closing - 12-14-2004
Okay I have not been able to get online very often lately. My husband lost his job again and the transmission broke in our car, so unfortunately Gaia is the LEAST of my worries right now. I'll be online when I can and still buy my Gaia letters if/when I can afford to but for now I'm so sorry but this shop is going to have to close. I really really hate to do this. I hope to be able to reopen it again fairly soon but it may be a matter of months. First I have to get our car fixed, and make sure my husband is gainfully employed. I still have a job but that's not enough to live on.. If you are even remotely spiritual or religious, keep me in your prayers please..

Possibly Re-Opening - 03-09-2005
Well I've been gone awhile.. I have alot of the breedables done and ready to be released. I almost everything I can do to make handling that easier. I still have 2 pandas that need new homes. They have been completely ignored and they deserve better. One is red, and one is yellow. If you think you can provide a good home PM me. I know that I have been gone a long while. I am currently unemployed, looking for a new job. My husband has joined the Navy and I will be working from home after he ships out so I may have more time for this shop. I will not be able to crank them out like I once could but I think I can handle one or two orders. I am also about to set up an art auction so I may wait to officially re-open until that is finished. I made a bunch of banners for the shopfront. I will try to get those all uploaded and set up today. I can't be on Gaia all day like I once could but I am able to check in every day now, and that is recent. I know the front page is stretched but I'm not sure which post is doing it, or whether it's someone's signature. icon_xp.gif I am NOT taking any new regular Pixel Twin orders yet. The penguin eggs will be up for auction soon (maybe in a week or two) if I do decide to re-open. I want to, but if you see my post on page 99, you can see why I have been gone for months. That and real life issues. If anyone has experience with Pixel Animation and want's a job PM me. We'll work out something.

Re-Opening and Re-Location - 03-31-2005
Well as you can see I have a Guild now. I got it at a great deal too. 8k and a commission! whee That makes me all happy and fluffy inside. I plan to re-open as soon as the store is done being re-located. I will be informing my affiliates within the next few days. The Guild, while whimsical looks nice and organized in my opinion. Not many members, but is how I like it. I'm thinking of changing the way you place orders, from posting in the thread, to PMing me. I think putting it here and stickying it was a great idea. I'll put a link back in my signature, most likely. Well that's all for this update.

Open For Breedables - 4-8-2005
I finished moving the store and decided to make a Cow breedable. It's in progress and I hope to have some sample images for ya'll soon. I have released the Penguin Breedables. They are on sale right now. I will be moving back to my Dad's soon and I will bring my PixelTwin files and programs so don't worry. smile Cows will be the very last non-limited breedable. I also have a Limited Edition Moose in the works. After the first breeding season I'll post information about Hybrids. surprised I have all the information but it will require rearranging some of the posts and I don't want to do that right now. Um, buy buy buy! heart

Breedables - 5-24-2005
Several cow eggs, and a penguin egg have been sold. I released a a cow plushie to go along with the cow breedables. There are also two new potions, and I made the sweetgrass for cows. The new potions are a Growth potion, which will allow you to make your creature grow completely up, as long as they are hatched, and a Morphing potion, because alot of people wanted pandas but there aren't any available. Now you can morph any creature into another creature, only once, and permenantly for the sum of 500 gold. You can choose the creature and color, but these new morphed traits will not be passed down to their eggs. If you originally had a Cow, and morphed it into a fox, you would still get Cow babies. Think of it as plastic surgery. I'm hoping to be able to get alot more done with the breedable. Several Cow eggs have hatched, and some Pandas are waking up from their baby sleep to become teens. I will probably reopen the non-breedable portion of the shop, after all the Breedables have gone through another animation. I put up a black fox egg for sale, and Pales got it. I also released three new wallpaper types. If you want to change your wallpaper, post it in the order thread.
