I know, right?
Also, hai! lol o/
I guess the lesson this fabulous customisation teaches us is that yes, you CAN have an amazing relic pet, if you've got the NC items to use on it. ?
I could dig a hole for us ALL here by suggesting to Nielo that we have a round for Relic pets using only NP and free items, but I suspect that might just create a bunch of lack-lustre entries, hmm, might amuse myself by seeing if I can make one I like now...
I'm also really liking how the 3 I voted for are in 1st, 2nd and 3rd place right now, very cool. ?
 

Yes, I called off the original trade when they didn't respond within a few days and traded with @charelan instead.   She had better stuff anyway. 

When you're editing, there are tabs above the place the items in that outfit's 'closet' are. The second one says "sharing", and the links for large/medium/small will give you a page with a still image you can save!

I've failed my Halloween Uni by nOT HAVING A SPOOKY CUSTOM READY FOR HIM,,,,,,, I have some vague plans to acquire Gate to Deserted Fairground Foreground, but it's trading at ~8-10 and I'm also trying to trade for it during the season it's relevant to so it's like...  
He's relatively spooky all the time though, so I don't think his current look is too out of place.

But I'm planning to make my Christmas Jubjub a permanent pet on my main, so I've actually come up with a few seasonal customs for her!

You would not believe how hard it is to dress a Jubjub lmao....
This involves trading for Gathering of Conjurers BG, which is only worth like ~4-6, but again is in-season and HTPW for most people who already have it. On the bright side though, I might be able to find a lot of the other items in 2:1 sales!

Hmm.. I would like to help you out...
Where are the predictions again?  What are the odds this week? @jellysundae?
 
I haven't actually gone and chosen yet.

@jellysundae, yes, it looks like they think that awakened are slightly more likely to win than the sway, based mostly, I guess, on the fact that it's been longer since they have won.  So maybe I'll help @kirschteins get his avatar.  The awakened still has a chance at any of the good ones, right?  It's just random?

Maybe instead of bushes, they are clouds rolling in from the wraith attack?

And look, Gilly is wearing the purple version! That's the one colour I don't have any of, lol, I should go see how it looks.
Hmm, looks a bit weird, I think.

Looks good with the raspberries bushes, but not the autumn trees, would look good if she went berrying here, but I'd not recommend that, Jhudora's probably poisoned them

I had a conversation this morning with someone about the "right" to own guns. I don't think there's any reason for people to have any stronger weapons/more ammo than you would use to hunt a deer. I don't like hunting much, but those weapons aren't the kind you can use to kill 60 people in minutes.
But if school shootings and mass killings like these haven't changed people's opinions on gun control in America, I doubt anything will.

Thank you!  
This is Rellee.  She always looks like this, but is inspired by Buffy.  Needs better wings, a better coat, and a shadow to go over the background, but for now, I like her look!

 
And Dareni.  He's a cowboy (HA!  GET IT!  THE KAU IS A COWBOY!)  Still his every day look, but he's a cute cowboy, sooo. . .

There's a purple version of those shrubs too that you might try!

Our lovely Deb has screenshots in her profile of how to do it. :3
I autumned up my draik's look a bit further. I'm not sure which shrubbery looks the best, what do you guys think? The autumn one is certainly more balanced, but I think that because the raspberries still have green leaves it makes it look like the shrubbery's been sprayed with something noxious.

Ah, well. I got a book Cas hasn't read yet out of it, which is nice!
Plus, since I at least know what's going on now, I'm a lot more confident about both getting those avatars eventually and also the BD in general! (I updated my gear significantly, so maybe I'll go after some other BD avatars now!)

My quiet little Tafe is happily visiting the farmers' market thanks to @kirschteins  I'm NOT going to want to change this look once the weather gets colder, lol, I love this background. I haven't done anything seasonal with my other pets, but you guys have me eyeing my closet and wondering if I need to go shopping, lol.

Ok, two acting seasonal now! Miss. Gen's now doing a bit of foraging in the warmer parts of the forest where there's still berries to be had.

 
 

My little Witch Nayru is carving pumpkins in her favorite pumpkin patch! :)

Alright y'all, it being October 1st and all means THE SPOOKIEST SEASON IS OFFICIALLY HERE! (If you're in the northern hemisphere; if not, happy Spring!)
So once again it's time for Fall customs! (Click the pictures if you'd like to see the full outfit on dti, sometimes items or animations get lost in previews)

Pexcis went for a cutesy, generally Autumn-inspired look. As you can see, her parasol is a little too small so she ended up with some freckles over the summer!

Rainbow opted for a classic Goth-esque style! That Spyder pal hanging around seems to have been very busy weaving webs...

Tnuq actually wanted to have a costume theme, so she has donned a sort of Phantom of the Opera inspired outfit. 

As always around this time of year, Knight pays homage to Apple Bobbing Bart, with some added seasonably spooky decor.
I wanted to use mostly items I already owned for these customs and I think they came out great! What are your pets wearing for the season? Do you have favorite pieces to use for this theme? Or does your pet just stay spooky all the time regardless of the time of year?

Xwee has gone with an apple picking theme, cozy in her sweater and scarf.

I just finished dressing Ananda up a minute ago

Amirton is in a spooky pumpkin patch, made perhaps spookier by his ghostly presence (the image below doesn't capture the glow of his wings)

I just love how Fyora kinda tells the Battle Faerie to shut up for a moment
Now that you mention it, she does look kinda odd, doesn't she? I suppose it's her facial expression. Jumpstart is not very good at modifying old art.

Frozen is not overrated.  But the new Beauty and the Beast is excellent.  I'm glad they fixed all the plot and character holes from the original.  As I expected with Emma Watson as Belle, they changed it *just* enough so that it didn't seem like she felt she was too good for the town, except that they didn't value education and she didn't want to fall into line with their expectations for her.
And yes, I think these will be more versatile outside of winter customizations.
I thought the pretty castle did look like faerieland's castle, at least maybe before the fall.  But I thought it was another example of lazy reuse of graphics.  I think, from the fact that everything else they've released has been pop culture themed, and that the description sounds like they are describing that movie, that it's highly likely.

@kirschteins Thanks so much for that big long post! I just have to accept that it's always a risk, and hope for the best.
I'm with @jellysundae, I think it's time to pull the trigger on this shopping cart.
