Hello everyone! We've got some updates to share with you today and some notes on what we're working on next. Most of these updates are minor adjustments, but we recommend taking a look through to see what changed!

On-Site Gallery

We have set up and enabled submissions for our galleries! We welcome all Primeval Age-related artwork/literature, whether it be your own character, someone else's imports, landscapes of the islands- anything you'd like. There are multiple galleries you can view:

• See all artwork/literature from all members in galleries under the "Browse" tab
• See all artwork/literature that you have submitted under the "Gallery" tab on your profile
• See all artwork/literature linked to a character in the import's "Gallery" tab

Please check out the different gallery options and submit to the correct one! You have the option of indiciating which prompt a submission is for if you'd like. You can also indicate characters present in the submission (which we highly recommend). Note that the submission size limit for files is 3 MB, so you may need to size images down, but you can post links to full-size pieces in the description if you'd like. You are welcome to use gallery links for activity submissions!

With the addition of galleries here, we will no longer allow direct image links to non-gallery sources for activity submissions. Things like deviantART, Toyhouse, and other art galleries are still fine if you prefer those! But we will no longer be accepting sta.sh, discord, imgur, google docs, etc. as the links for activities. These links are fine to be posted in the description of the gallery submission.

Additionally, please note that you may only submit work that you have created or collaborated on to the gallery. For collaborations, please do not upload the same piece multiple times; you can add each artist/writer as a collaborator in the credits during upload!

Weebly Updates

• Percentage Guide updated; percentages for quests is now based on sections
• Several marking pages updated to clarify information and examples
• Curse & Piebald updated to include rule against mimicking markings
• Clarifications to the Dimorph Rules, including new examples, and size guide
• Several prompts updated to specify that required dinosaur characters must be official imports
• Adjustments to the Quest Requirements page to better clarify current rules
• Adjustments to the rules around crediting submissions

We'd like to highlight the update to the dimorphic marking page- we've added an image to serve as a rough size reference, so you can now copy-paste it onto imports for an idea of sizing dimorphic markings within limits! Note that this this box is based on average import sizing, and it may need to be sized down more for some species which are smaller on the canvas, such as tapejara and atopodentatus. This method is a bit different than what our staff used to check dimorphics previously, so if the sizing looks a little bigger than before- that's why!

What's Next?

We've got a lot of things in progress right now, but here are some of our next focus areas!

• Activities overhaul - you may have seen the ideas we shared about this before! We plan to ease requirements for most activities and make some adjustments to others. Don't worry, we'll give plenty of advance warning and a grace period for submissions when the time comes!
• Lore release - we're currently developing lore for our species to provide some notes on background, behavior, and way of life for each species. These will be generalized notes about the species, and no one will be required to adhere to them for their own character development, but we hope it'll add some interesting info to them and provide a foundation for any ideas you may want to build from!
• Moving more information to this site - we're looking at formatting some pages a bit, then pulling as much information over as we can! We'd like to get all species and genetics on site as well as set up pages for various guides

Once the corrections period closes for event submissions, we'll be rolling the import raffles for Mr. Kitty and Beep, and we'll also be putting together the island parade, so keep on the lookout for both of those!

Thanks to all those who purchased from our last sale opening, we made a lot of money that will be put towards more site development and artwork. We can't thank you guys enough for the support- not just from the sale, but also from all of you, every day, playing the game. We can't wait to continue the story of Primeval Age with you all!
