Nielo

I kinda forgot it'd be Easter this weekend, and since I've only received 3 entries so far (and am not even sure I'll have time to post the round today), I'm postponing the entrance date. My apologies!

Loved the creativity this round (and all the cute Jubjubs)!

Thank you all for entering, and congrats to our winners!

Hi all, due to bad planning on my part, I'm going to have to postpone the round. Sorry this keeps happening. (Working from home is not working for me at all.)

The new voting deadline will be a week from now.

(Also, if anyone want to attempt to break that tie, I wouldn't mind that at all. ;))

This will be a fun round! Where I live in Norway we`ve just had a long period of lots of snow and very cold weather, but over the last week the temperature has changed to the plus side finally, so now the snow and ice is melting and it almost feels like spring.

To be honest, a similar change of weather over here in The Netherlands is exactly what inspired this theme.

(We went from the coldest days we've had in years (-15 degrees Celsius), and quite a bit of snow (we're not used to much snow at all; this was definitely the most I've seen in over a decade), to around 18 degrees Celsius, in less than 2 weeks. While I'm enjoying the spring weather, as big a shift as this feels... wrong. XD)

Hey all! Sorry I haven't been on in the last 3 weeks or so, I had Covid and had to quarantine away from a computer with internet (I stayed away for an extra week to make sure I was completely over it).  

Holy rabies, mine got 3rd place! Awesome sauce and cool beanz! All the entries look amazing! Thanks to all who voted for mine!  

Yikes! Happy to see you back again though; I hope you're feeling well!

How do I enter? I've never done this before. Where do I send it?

There's a link to the rules page in the first post of this thread. That page lists all the things you need to send me to enter. Let me know if you have any questions!

Looks like you're going to have enough this round at least if three of us have sent you an entry in the first day or so!!

Yup, I don't often get this many entries within the first 24 hours.

Thanks for letting me know; I'll try clearing out my inbox a little, see if that fixes it.

 

*Edit: I've deleted a few messages, so hopefully I'll be able to receive them again now. And I'll probably do a more thorough clean of my inbox soon.

Good to see you again, @gypsyknees!

And I agree that these entries are inspiring. I'd never considered getting a Vandagyre before, but after seeing all these great entries, I'm definitely thinking about getting one. (It wouldn't be the first time The Runway inspired me to get a specific pet. )

Did you receive my entry? I'm not very used to this forum, not sure I sent the message right...

Yes I did, thanks!   (Sorry, I tend to be horrible at responding to messages in a timely manner, and often don't until I actually start setting up the round.)

I've only received 3 entries so far, so I'm going to extend the entering period of this round by one week.

Awesome entries, everyone!
Congrats to the winners, and thank you all for entering!

I went with two smaller versions of the entries to showcase the winner on the front page. Let me know if you think two regular sized entries (shown on vertically) would look better. (The toggle I used to have (to be able to switch between the images) no longer works with the current version of the admin panel we use to update the front page.)

I haven't gotten to her in a while, but I'm willing to bet that that animation ran on Flash.  Should I stop trying?  I'd hate to actually catch her and not be able to get a prize.

When I visited the page yesterday, I got the "flash is dead" text and figured the page was broken, but I only just realised that meant I'd caught her dropping a prize, because that's the only time the animation plays. Finally checked my inventory (doing that a lot less with the new lay-out...), and there was a stamp that I'm pretty sure I didn't get anywhere else, so I'm guessing that's what she dropped. So yeah, like @jellysundae said, the animation might be broken, but you'll still find the prize in your inventory.
