A little late but stuffed!

Firstly, sorry about the few hours of delay after actual friday, but you can only imagine how workhours get clogged when you move and have visitors in your house checking it out to rent after you! My apologies!

Secondly, I really really hope all people in southern states and Middle America stay safe, specially Florida and Cuba and all the islands around it, it's a very very horrifying time for you all, and I wish all the best of luck during the hurricane attacks. It's three in a row already within days and a fourth forming, I can't imagine how scary that must be. Good luck ;0;

I have added 90 new mane markings today. You can imagine this is what took so long :D unfortunately, I'd rather have the news out now rather than continue to work on mutations, so some will miss it.
Following mutations show the new markings right away:
- Primal Felis (all stages)
- Primal Smilus
- Primal
- Female Manes

Following mutations will get mane markings caught up this weekend:
- Tailless
- Bobbed Tail
- Folded Ears

The rest (like poor leopons or dwarves) has to wait until next art update or when I am moved out for good, because it's extremely time consuming. By september 27th I should be 100% in new place settled in with great internet and finally free to work full time again and I really really want to catch up with all missing files SO much! Knowing they're waiting and waiting is like a nightmare shadow sitting on my chest every night I swear to elbows I will get this done as soon as possible.

New Bases:

Steele - Black Countershaded Medium Common - usual custom base
Teardrop - Cream Solid Light Special - Teardrop is a breed only base (like Ebony).

EDITED Note: Buttermilk (previously breed-only) will act like Onyx now and is a custom special. It works just like before, but is applicable now. Teardrop just took its place as breed-only base. Sorry it was gibberish before, I think I was sleepy :D

New Decors!
Monkey Business will be selling now 3 new butterflies!

Shad has added a new set of tags for September!

Crunchy Worm
The item has been removed from Prophet Shop. I actually decided it'd be pointless for it to compete with GMO cows - I will introduce that item in October or November instead (depends where the currency could use a nice consumable breeding item). You can "blame" this on me entirely, I honestly think the item would "die" this month and GMOs would be picked over it. Why not fill up a shop that usually has only decors, instead?
The item is planned to affect litter looks in a specific way, but in case the coding can't be done as planned, I just don't want to reveal the effect in advance and then it turns out we have to tweak it and dissappoint players. So for now it will be a vague breeding item until it's time to put it into a shop.

Polls and dev notes
Wawaweewa! Looks like you guys would love the beetle corpses to turn into Amusement items after all. I can arrange that by Sept 22nd! Very nice! Yes?

LINK - New poll! Since this update is focused on manes, I browsed the suggestions a lot. A specific Vitiligo suggestion appeared and had so many supports, but I was not sure which way to lean regarding the designs and actual introduction of the mane markings.

Should they match body Vitiligo markings, making them Mane Vitiligo 1, 2, 3 etc?
Should they just be few Vitiligo markings since it's just manes, and make them "Scarce, Medium, Heavy" markings for manes?
Should they be raffle mane markings to have something unique to breed for? We never had those before :O maybe custom ones would be easier to match existing lions with body vitiligo markings? I REALLY NEED YOUR VOTES FOR CONCLUSION!
