Hopefully this hasn&;t been suggested already, but the Enchanted Polar Bear Familiar Stone
<: The overlay art especially is extremely dated compared to the Frozen Solid Towel. It looks way too cartoonish, which is a shame. I don&;t understand what&;s going on with its left foreleg either. I&;ve always wanted to use it with the Snow Queen set but the quality just doesn&;t match up.

Seconding this... a lot of the old animal stones/totems/coins/figurines/etc. could use some attention. Compared to the animals from the chance machine, these seem dated, cartoonish, and notoriously difficult to layer in a lot of cases. When they were released, they were exciting and really well-received. But the art on site has come a long way in the last couple years.

Newer animal wearables almost always have the "full" animal body (I don't know how else to explain this) rather than layering behind the avatar. We can move the base around now and we have complete backgrounds that make it so we don't even need the HA base in the completed avatar.

So animals like the tigers and dragon with missing sections and layering behind the HA's legs aren't as versatile as newer animal wearables. I'm not saying every animal needs to be independent of the HA (because some of the interactions are really cute and well done), but some -like the Tiger Bones- would benefit from some minor adjustments to make layering easier. Here are a few others that may need a little attention:

Up-to-date again. ^^

(gosh finding out what layer an item is on is a pain in the new wardrobe, but the old wardrobe didn't want to let me search all items)

I think this item haven't been suggested yet but the ballet shoes could get a revamp as well:

They could be nice wearables to use again with the art we have now and look good in TC's as well.

And I just vended these as well which could use a revamp as well:

Looks like you can remove some of the chibi plushies! c:

I'm a little disappointed I have nothing to update. xD

[edit] Since I have some time, I decided to go through another shop that could really use some love: the Atebus Shop! I've added what I've felt appropriate to my sections.

Seerow, for you:

Also looks like these two got missed from their set in a revamp: vs.

- I can't tell if this one was done recently or not.

I found this beauty today:

The item made me laugh just because of what it is named/the description, but in 100% seriousness, I'm not an artist and I really think I could draw it better because I'd at least use a ruler. :P

I'm pretty sure the Atebus Jersey Top and matching shorts were already revamped (though it's definitely looking a little dated...).

I didn't even know this thing still existed. I don't think it's been touched since I joined about 6 years ago.

Also, there are these that have been hanging out in my wardrobe for some reason that I noticed really needed some attention:

SPOILER (click to toggle) + recolours + recolours <This isn't necessarily outdated, but it looks really funny because it's missing hair in front of the ear. I feel like it need a tiny sideburn there or something lol. + recolours

I have so much old junk in my wardrobe ahhhhh. I'm just hanging onto it because half of it would be really nice if it got a revamp. And I don't want to scramble to buy one should it get revamped and look really nice. This is only a few layers of my wardrobe, I may come back later and go through the rest because I have a lot in there that sticks out like a sore thumb. >_>

omg same. I buy tons of stuff that's only a couple hundred or few thousand sP that I currently can't use on the off-chance it gets a revamp and lives up to its potential.

@ Mary

Oh yay, new shop focus. Added both those jersey sets, because even the revamped one looks really dated and would look even worse if compared to a newly revampted version of the other set.

@ Clopin

So much stuff...

stretches I better get started on all those items before you come back with more. x)

Seasonal items I still had left in my sections. (there might be more but this is what I had down as holiday related)

Hey, just a heads up, Amber changed some items last night to reflect that they are the common color of the set. (i.e. Feli Elixir is now Common Feli Elixir etc) So make sure to update your items!

Unsure if it effects you, sonata, but figured I'd ping just in case. Pinging myself to so I fix mine tonight .

Oh, I hadn't even thought of that as far as affecting my post, so thanks for the ping.

I think there are possibly some wearables that could have been affected by the change (or might benefit from it), but I checked my post and either they weren't changed or I don't have any of them listed.

I'm back with more as predicted, eep hehe. Only this time I tried to be more helpful and sort through things so it's easier for you to list them since I'm bombarding you with many things I find in my dailies. Hopefully everything's in the right layer/area!

Not sure, if this belongs here, but the Slots game still uses the old image of the slots spork.

Image in Slots Game: http://img.subeta.net/items/spork.gif

It should be changed to match the item:

There is a way around that if the item codes aren't posted! Simply hit the quote post button and it provides all the items for you :D

coughs Why didn't I think of that. x) That's going to be very helpful in the future.

It's only helpful for so long though. Most people don't post every item in a set, which I then have to go find.

Yeah it has it's faults but it is a super handy short cut at least. Copy and pasting is so much easier then typing all the names out hah. If names are similar enough (ie only a color difference or like "Shoe" vs "Pants") in a theme set you can just copy that one code X amount of times and swap the word out after. That's what I do a lot.

I only realized it myself when I started working on the Tribute thread that I help run. Omg it was a finger-saver.

Definitely is. I do copy+paste a lot with items with similar names... but even so. When I had to type out the code scode later that day my fingers went straight for the item code. xD

These guys need an update (Dolly doesn't looks as polished to me as some of the other shop keepers)

Also, I'm not sure how recent Rumi has been updated, but there is something about her bandanna that annoys me. I guess because there are no shadows so it looks very flat. Her legs seem kind of weird to me as well...
