Hellp pupp pals! Got some various small updates today!

Common Puppillar Custom - $15
Rare Puppillar Custom - $20
Super Rare Puppillar Custom - $25
Legendary Puppillar Custom (Commissioner designs their own Illusory Form) - $30
Legendary Puppillar Custom (with Illusory Form) - $45

Puppypillar Custom - $15
Special Traits for Puppillars - Pricing adjustment decided by the artist

Thanks to everyone as always for your support!

Masterlist project complete!

After some work, the masterlist project is now complete (mostly)! Most older images have been re-uploaded on the masterlist, meaning that all images use the auto-watermarking feature, and unwatermarked images can be viewed by the character's owner and the Puppillars staff! This should make things easier for any future trades and stuff! Some puppillars with alternate images missing have also had them added! A few pupps still need re-uploads, and I will be reaching out to folks to see if they have the image to re-upload.

As stated previously, if you have a Pupp that you want to have alternate images that haven't been added to the masterlist yet, please reach out to Provie and I can add em!

Guide pages updated

Another project I had been working on is now completed as well, all the main guide pages have had some minor updates, mainly for grammar and some clarification. The main important changes are as follows:

• No Special Potions for Snailcats - Previously it was stated on the Snailcat Guide that Special Potions could be used for Snailcats, this has been changed and is no longer the case. However, similar effects can be achieved using Mini Magic, because any traits with these sort of effects will be Magic Traits on Snailcats, rather than using the special traits, which are exclusive to Puppillars
• Treats Valuing Clarified - The Treats value sheet has been linked on the Currencies, Items, and Awards page, as well as added as an image
• How to Use Our Site Updated - New sections have been added for all our new features, and the outlines have been collapsed into spoilers in order to make the page less overwhelming
• Terms of Service Updated - Just like above, the changes are mostly small clarfications, but one to note is under 4c, clarifying using trades vs transfers:
  • "If a character/MYO is being gifted, you may use the transfer option on the masterlist page, if it is being traded however, please use the Trades feature in order to keep the best records!"

I hope all these updates help to streamline the pupps experience! If there are any questions, feel free to reach out on Discord!

Conclusion 8/4: What a great art fight we had this year! It was super fun seeing everyone's art and it looks like everyone had a ton of fun! The raffle has been rolled, the results can be seen here, but the winners are Pooka Zevhara AcuteExposure and Mulch !! Congrats to the winners, you will be contacted shortly!

Happy art fight everyone!!

It's that time of year again, Art Fight is back once again and as we have in previous years, we are celebrating Art Fight over a Puppillars! For anyone who may not know, Art Fight is an annual gift art game where anyone is free to join over at the Art Fight Website! Since its a bust art month for a lot of people, we don't have any specific events going on in July, but we do increase our gift art bonus over at Chance's Gacha Generosity! For the duration of Art Fight, all Gift Art earns DOUBLE rolls on Chance's Chance, and all submissions of giftart made for Puppillar Members will be allowed, even art of non-puppillar characters! When submitting this art, you can use the Art Fight link or another platform, and please include the member's site name! This is a great time to rack up some treats and gacha tokens to get some nice stuff for yourself, all by giving gifts and doing your normal participation in Art Fight (so also remember to upload Puppillar related art to our gallery for treats)! If you are not participating in art fight, gift art not made for art fight also qualifies for the bonuses! 

To add on to the celebration this year, we are also rolling a Puppypillar Raffle into our Art Fight celebration! As well as the Chance Bonuses, each gift art completed during Art Fight will earn a ticket to our July 2022 Puppypillar Raffle!!

• Each gift art completed earns one ticket, regardless of type/level of art, and all gift art qualifies, even if its not for art fight
• All tickets must be claimed via Claims, and you can add multiple giftarts in each claim (so don't forget that you need to do both the prompt and the claim for full rewards!)
• The prizes for the raffle will be Four Choices of either a Puppypillar Breeding or Puppypillar custom by Provie !

Art Fight's end date may be extended, so both the Bonuses and the Raffle will end after Art Fight has ended, even with any extensions!

Pride Shop Update

We have some good news and some bad news (ok well not THAT bad).... The bad news is that we now have TOO MANY pride items on site to be contained in one shop, but that's also good news because we have so many fun pride items! Winston's Shop is now two separate shops, one for Pride Accessories and one for Pride Collectibles! Keep an eye on both shops, we will be adding some new pride flag variations in time for pride next month!

Wishlists are here

This feature has been live for a little while now, but I forgot to announce it, whoops! We now have a Wishlist System on the site! Members can create various wishlists and add items to thier wishlist(s) by clicking the (+) icon on any item on the Item Database! Wishlists can be accessed under the "My Stuff" tab, and will be useful for keeping tabs on stuff you wanna collect!

Other updates!!!

Update on Design Updates: In the past, we did not have a policy on updating Masterlist Art without any sort of design update, after some staff discussion we have decided to allow art updates without any design changes. Art updates will cost a flat fee of 50 treats! As of now there is no limit or cooldown, but we reserve the right to add a limit if needed.

More Alias Options: This feature is still a work in progress, but we have added Tumblr as verification options for accounts! We will be working to add Twitter and Imgur verification and get them up and running soon! This means that in order to create an account, you do not need a Deviantart Account, and can use a Tumblr account as verification instead! To edit your Aliases, you can go to the aliases page here!

We hope you enjoy these updates!!!

Hey all!! Guest artist applications will be open until April 30th at the end of the day, site time!

Happy (Late) Third Anniversary Puppillars!!

Whew!!! Time really flies huh? You can blink and miss a milestone, and I certainly did this time around, my apologies! Puppillars is now THREE whole years old!! Life has been crazy, but after realizing I had missed it, I kicked in into high gear to make sure we could have an awesome celebration to make up for it!

In a lot of ways, 2021 has also been nuts, just like last year, but I'm so grateful for all the support Puppillars has gotten, and I hope that Puppillars has been able to provide some joy for everyone over the last year!

Milestones from the past year!

Our biggest milestones this year were launching some fun major features, such as Adventuring, Questing, and Challenges! These features help provide some always going on activities for our members looking for fun stuff to do between events!

During this year we have also launched our very adorable baby puppillars, Puppypillars!! There are already 14 lil puppypillars on our site, and more to come!

There are 64 members on our site now! Welcome to all our new members!! We appreciate our new and old members alike!

There are now 280 Puppillars and 35 Snailcats on our masterlist! We welcomed some amazing MYOs, Official Adopts, and Guest Artist adopts this year!

We have 556 items on our site, including a bunch of new pride items, and some exciting items from Adventuring and Questing!

We also have 32 Awards on the site as of posting, and more to come very soon!

Our site has had many awesome upgrades to our site, such as adding the Donation Shop and the Seasonal Shop, as well as stuff like Affiliates and adding captchas to registration (say goodbye to all the bot accounts!)

Even though things have been a little slow over this year, we still had 4 big events, our Dungeon Doggos Event, The Mysterious Orbs Event, Trick or Treating, and our 12 Days of Cozytide Advent!
