She is my love child q.q

I see some of the pets that win the Spotlight and (personally) think Zabelle may have a shot? If not now, in the future?

Shes got quality art (With more coming in all the time)

While she doesn't have a personal "story" per say, her page acts as a breed fact sheet for her species.

I have struggled with her TC a little.

No they are not. Information pets are okay as long as they aren't just wikipedia copy-paste

Quote by Rules, Regulations and Guidelines
1. Stories are required. This can either be through words or art (such as comics), but a complete lack of story will no longer be accepted.
Pets that are simply "information" pets (i.e.: a pet about bumble bees, a pet about China) without presenting the information in a unique or story-telling way will no longer be accepted. Ex: If you use a Wikipedia article as your pet&;s story, this will not be accepted. There is an exception to the story rule: some people get extremely creative with treasures and can actually form treasures into images, comics, pictures, etc. This will considered using &;art&; to tell a story if done well.

Well, you can look at this as 'wow that's no help to me' or 'hey, if I had submitted this, I would have been rejected because I haven't completed all the requirements.'

- Text aside, I think the layout is fairly appealing. The one thing I might tweak is the color of the picture frame--it is quite bright and the high contrast makes it stands out a bit too much against the background and distracts from your lovely artwork. The TC looks pretty good--concise. I might take out one of the sets of fangs and the razor, though, to keep it to the most relevant items.

The only thing I will say about the text is that the scientific name should be "Equus praedatorias" because the scientific convention is to capitalize the genus but not the species name.

Did you draw all those horses? They are very nice!

I agree the text is a rough colour....I didnt make the art featured on the page, its all commission work. Thanks for the scientific name help. I was struggling with what to name the stupid things :/ I do have lots of my own work of her but it doesnt exactly fit into her profile cause its all fine arts. I was thinking about just linking to them or something.

- Creating names can be tough! As for the work you've done yourself, I don't see why it being fine art should prevent it from going on your profile. My pet Honey Bee has some of my graphite and watercolor drawings in it. The layout isn't the best, but I don't think it's because of the artwork!

I'd love to see the artwork you've done of these horse-creatures. Maybe I can help you find a way to fit them into your profile?

Stuff on the right of the profile gets cut off for me, while at the same time there's wasted space on the left side. Screenshot Unless you put a note on the pet profile saying it's best viewed in full screen, it'll likely get kicked out from the spotlight for that. I know it's nitpicky, but there are guidelines against wasted space. (Among other silly guidelines, hence why I don't even participate myself.)

Good luck with the spotlight!

The best way to be happy with someone is to be happy alone. That way, company is a matter of choice and not a necessity.

- The first sketch is very nice. You could edit it in Photoshop or The Gimp (a free, open-source equivalent), choose one of the heads, and include it within the picture frame if you want. If it were me, I would single out the dreamy-eyed one on the left. Good luck completing the profile--you're off to a good start!
