☀️ June Newsletter ☀️
Posted 5 months ago :: Last edited 5 months ago by redcrowz🏳️🌈 BANNER 🏳️🌈
This month's banner was a wonderful collab done by deathgrippin MidnightSky fruitofthestars ! Happy pride everyone!
We'll start the raffle shortly for next month's banner artists!
So long, cinnabunnies!
It seems as though the Cinnabunnies have hopped out with the changing times... Let's look forward to seeing them next year!
(Cinnabunny MYOs are no longer available in shop, nor can they be awarded via the monthly prompts. Any custom orders placed before the posting of this announcement are still valid!)
CINNA OF THE MONTH
Three lovely designs have won last month's Theme of the Month! Congratulations fluffbeak , gothicrift , and Almondlover ! All of these Cinnas have been made official and should be on your accounts. <3
Don't forget, you can choose to draw these Cinnas instead of an NPC for June's Rarity Prompt as well!
This month's theme is "Spirit of Adventure"! Design a Cinna that you feel fits that prompt and submit it to the gallery HERE!
JUNE PROMPTS
The MYO and rarity prompts have been updated for June! We can't wait to see what you create this month!
GA + PGA UPDATES
The new set of Guest Artists and Pound Guest Artists has been selected!
Welcome to the GA team fluffbeak , biologyny , and ophelisae !
And welcome to the PGA team kavvee , Parrotina , and Miikage !
Applications for GA are OPEN, and there's a brand new Google form for you to fill out!
Just like in April, the previous GA sign-up list is being wiped / retired. Quite a few users who applied with our initial form are no longer active in the community for a variety of reasons, and as such choosing GAs has been a bit difficult lately.
Fill out the shiny new form above (even if you've applied in the past) for your chance to become a future Cinnaverse Guest Artist!
TOYHOUSE World UPDATE
Coffeebara has made a wonderful change of scenery to our Toyhouse World! Check it out!
The Toyhou.se world exists as a landing page, and as such does not hold its own events, prompts, etc. It is simply there for if you use Toyhou.se and would like to further "officially recognize" your Cinnas. <3
Chaosmay rewardS
What an incredible turnout this month! We're so happy that a community has come together to create tons of quality artwork.
We are delighted to report that you all created over 300 Chaosmay submissions for this event!
Congratulations on reaching the highest reward tier available! We hope you enjoy the spoils of your labors.
Submit to this prompt with your submission(s) to claim your rewards!
In addition to your boons, Kenna has for us a brand new reference sheet for adult Chaosmites, also known as Chaosi:
Buck Summer GACHA 6/14/24
Admin Coffeebara will be holding a gacha this Friday, June 14th! These designs will be on small canvases (Nuggets), with rolls at $45 a piece. Buck aims for 40 designs in total, but if there are changes, he'll let you know in #artist-updates.
The theme for the batch is "Summer Fun"! Expect Cinnas of all species and flavors!
SUMMER OF TAILS contest
The posting of today's announcement marks the start of the Summer of Tails Contest!
Your task will be to design a NEW Cinna tail! Its shape should be unique from our current set of tails (which may require you to get creative - the world is our oyster with tail fusions!), and it should be given a neat / clear reference. Submit your pieces to THIS gallery!
At the end of the contest, six tails will be chosen to enter a community vote on which ones should be real. After the votes have commenced, the top three tails will be implemented into the species!
Everyone chosen will receive a Rarity Rune Bundle, and the winners will each recieve a Golden Mead!
The contest will be from June 10th to July 1st. Winners will be revealed on July 10th in our monthly update!
Have fun designing!
TRAIT Changes + additions
And finally... the beef of our update! There are quite a few changes to our trait list!
Since the changelog / written description of all the changes can be quite overwhelming to look at, Coffeebara has made a visual:
UB Category Changes:
- New UB categories: Anatomical, Elemental, Supernatural, and Artificial.
- Anatomical took in traits from Material, which was dissolved
- Elemental is mostly the same, but with some expanded traits
- Ethereal is renamed to Supernatural and has some new traits
- Synthetic is renamed to Artificial and expanded upon considerably
- Wild faces are now their own trait category separate from UB: Anatomical [not on visual]
Dissolving + Combining:
- Jaws, Slashers, Xeno, and Compound Eyes have been dissolved - all are free to use & untraited (aka will not be listed on the ML)
- Cropped Ears dissolved and relabeled as Point Ears
- Can still be made with Point Ears trait [Also applies to Bunny variations]
- Puppy Ears dissolved and relabeled as Flop Ears
- ANY ear that bends, folds, etc. is covered by Flop Ears trait [Also applies to Bunny variations]
- Cropped Tail now falls under Injured Tail, thus making it common.
- Fusing a Cinna's tail with Injured means the tail is either notably sliced / severed / shorter, or has taken on another broken visual (i.e. broken eggshell, broken heart)
- All UBs under the Arthro category are combined into one trait - Anatomical (Buggy)
- Monstrous (Zilla) now falls under Anatomical (Scaly)
- Anatomical (Dach) & Anatomical (Skyscraper) are combined into Anatomical (Stretched)
- Anatomical (Stretched) now allows for stretched arms & legs!
- Monstrous (All Ears) & Anatomical (Caterpillar) now both fall under Anatomical (Extra Limbs)
OTHER TRAIT Changes:
- Elemental (Fluid) has been expanded into multiple new traits depending on the design's context
- Elemental (Water)
- Supernatural (Blood)
- Edible drinks, i.e. sodas, alcohol, etc., are covered by Anatomical (Edible)
- Elemental (Neon) has been expanded into multiple new traits depending on the design's context
- Elemental (Electric)
- Supernatural (Glow)
- Material (Goo) has been expanded into multiple new traits depending on the design's context
- Artificial (Slime)
- Supernatural (Ecto)
- Edible goop, i.e. marshmallow fluff, caramel, etc., are covered by Anatomical (Edible)
- Anatomical (Picasso) has been renamed to Anatomical (Abstract)
- Ethereal (Digitized) has been renamed to Artificial (Digital)
- Material (Edible) has been recategorized to Anatomical (Edible)
- Material (Mech) has been renamed to Artificial (Tech)
- Horns & wings are now common (still listed on the ML)
With this, we are working on fixing all Cinnas' trait lists (as well as flavor formatting) one by one, so please be patient as we implement these changes! Alongside, please refrain from asking about outdated trait lists until after there is an announcement made about us completing this task.
All affected Cinnas will be given the Vintage Badge!
(You may submit to this prompt if you would rather receive Rarity Runes for your Vintage Badges.)
With the conclusion of this update, MYO Submissions, Design Updates, and Pound Transfers are now back open! Please look over your trait lists and make adjustments!
And those are all the updates for the month! Quite a big update for the summer!
Thank you for reading! Hope you cinnafriends enjoyed all the updates!
If you have any questions, suggestions, or any other concerns, let us know either here or in the Cinnaserver!
