The new genes are everything I hoped Jupiter / Saturn would have been when they first came out. I have 0 idea what to use them on yet but how could I not love them!!!!

I swear we've been asking for a wind flight themed snake game for almost a decade.

Skin Maker Strike

An interesting thread regarding FR's skin and accent rules- specifically their lack of clarification and the current skin guide being nearly a decade out of date- has gone up in FRD. I would recommend giving it a read and potentially helping out!

"We do not ask for the rules to be changed. We would like staff to update the on-site skin guide. Rules have clearly changed since it was written and there are VERY minor things that will get a skin 100% denied."

As always when in the forums, please be polite and don't derail threads with heated arguments! Thank you.

thread was nuked due to “we do not allow petitioning” T^T

hopefully staff still acknowledges the frustrations that the skin artists are having. Skin artists invest their time and money into making what’s basically unpaid content for the site. They deserve a lot more respect than a thread nuke and a notification sent to the OP.

I have the thread archived up to page 21 - if there were more posts after that, I don’t have them, if y’all want to read it - just give me some time to clean up the screenshots into functional bits.

I can also still get the quoted first few posts, full bbcode text, if that is wished.

Edit: Doc Linked!

Thank you for archiving the thread!
