Good belated greetings, Cinnanation! Apologies for the delay on this update. It's a pretty short one, so we'll waste no time getting into it.

🏖️ BANNER 🏖️

This month's banner was done by Mothblossom, Kouriander, and Coffeebara ! What's better than a beach episode?!

We'll raffle for next month's banner shortly!

✨ prompts + cinna of the month 🌊

Prompts have been cycled out for July! Check them out here!

This month's Cinna of the Month was designed by C-side ! Congrats on your new Cinna!

As a reminder, you may choose to draw COTM Cinnas instead of NPCs for the Rarity Prompt!

Our theme this month is Trip to the Zoo !

As always, submit designs to THIS gallery for your chance to have your design made official for free!

🌸 EVENT: CINNARTFIGHT 👃🏻

Juuuust in case you're currently living under a rock (is your rock a fossil or a crystal?), our event this month coinside with Artfight, which is currently halfway over! But worry not, you still have plenty time to attack your friends! For all the details, check out the event channels in the Discord!

💬 Server updates 💬

This update brings you two changes, to be made in the Discord server as soon as this post goes live:

- The new #design-check channel (below #ask-the-staff) is live! Any questions you have for the admins regarding MYO designs can go there. Trait checks, clarifications, redlines, etc. We hope this new channel successfully provides you all with a place to get an admin's input on a WIP Cinna design.

- We have decided to remove #dream-share channel after a few incidents in there left people uncomfortable. Thank you for understanding.

✍️ STAFF changes + ga now open✍️

In case you missed it, admin poejangles has retired from the Cinnaverse team.  If you'd like to read their farewell wishes, you may do so in #artist-updates. We wish our friend Poe well as they settle into a life outside of the server.

With this change, we'd like to take the time to state that we are not seeking new admins at this time. Administrative work may slow down a bit, as admins are all busy IRL during the summer, but things should continue to run just fine. Patience and understanding is much appreciated!

In other news... The wait is over: Temporary Guest Artist positions are back! To sign up for your chance to be a Guest Artist, fill out this Google form! We still have the submissions from before the break, so if you already applied towards the end of 2024, you are likely still on the list!

Please read ALL of the information within the form before applying. You must be 18 or older in order to be a GA.

Our new GAs for July and August are r0adkyll, rainer, and PsycheArt ! If now is not a good time for your term, please let us know and we'll put you back in the running for another term. <3

🖍️ Morpho clarification 🖍️

This is a short one: we felt it would be helpful to clarify that you do NOT need to use a Morpho cookie when switching between wild faces within the same category (i.e. tiger shark to hammerhead; both are Wild: Fishy).

That's all for now! Thanks for reading as awlays. We've got some plans for next month that we're excited to roll out, so be sure to come back for the next one!
