As always, the art team has been hard at work to provide another batch of top notch items for you, our loyal members! We also have some new donation items available that we all hope you'll enjoy! With these, Alacrity is implementing a new addition to the usual lineup; Collectibles!

From now on, for donations of $5 or more, you'll receive a special collectible item that will follow a certain theme through the year, and will only be available by donating! This year, we're following the Chinese Zodiac, and starting things off the Celestial Cobra!



Our other donation items are the Polar Bear Cub, which will grant your dogs +1 drive and +2 health every 4 hours, and the Ice Block, which contains all of this month's monthly shop items! :D



Artist Credits are as follows:
Igloo Background (Xylax)
Inuksuk Background (Xylax)
Fishing Hole Background (Xylax)
Eskimo Yurt Background (Xylax)
Arctic Fox Cub (Rixon)
Caribou Calf (Rixon)

Also, starting this month we are bringing Custom Companions back! But we'll be doing it a little differently than before. There's so much demand for these, and the art team already has so much work to do that it was very hard to keep up with all your orders! So we've decided that every month, one member of the art team will be open for one Custom Companion slot which will be auctioned or raffled. The winner will get to claim the slot! We will announce which artist is open very soon, so stay tuned!

Also, as you may or may not have noticed, our wonderful Xylax provided us with a few art updates to our food items! Mmm tasty!



Thank you all so much for your continued support, and we hope you'll all continue to enjoy yourselves here on Alacrity! :D

New Feature: Hide/Show!

This has been a popular request from you, our users, and we were finally able to get it coded! You will now see links beside your equipped accessories and companions that give you the option to hide or show them on your dog's image!

No more messing up your scenes with a companion or item you want for its effect, but that doesn't compliment everything else in your scene! :D

We expect that bugs might crop up, so if they do be sure to report to the issue hub so we can iron out any kinks that might be left in the code. This feature was tested before implementation, so as far as we know there shouldn't be any problems. But we'll see! Fingers crossed!

Enjoy!

New Feature in the Issue Hub!

To help make reporting any worrisome staff behavior easier, we've had a new option added to the Issue Hub! If you come to be in a situation where you need to report someone on staff, you can now select to have the issue sent directly to the admins!

Remember to mark your issue as private, so that only admins can see it, which gives you more security and anonymity when submitting a report of this kind. :} We know that sometimes it can be scary or intimidating, feeling like the person you're reporting might find out, and we don't want anyone to be afraid of getting singled out! Not only would that be unacceptable from anyone on staff, but we want to make sure we put some of these anxieties to rest from the get-go.

And again, if you have any issues with an admin, message me directly about it!

I hope this helps everyone, and we will continue to implement future features in the interest of making sure Alacrity is a fun and safe environment for you to play in. <3

I have been hoping for this to be added for a while now. I'm very glad that things are being heard and Alacrity made this necessary addition to the hub. I hope to see more things come out of Ala =)

I'm soooo glad this was added. I love how we now have more of the, like you said, anonymous factor when reporting these things

This is such a great idea. c: I will make sure to do this, I have always been scared to ever report somebody on Alacrity, because I thought they might find out. XD I'm not scared anymore! Nooo! (:
