Picture of the Week Contest

Happy Thursday!  I hope everyone is having a great breeding week and enjoying the Christmas gifts Amaretto put out earlier this week!  I thought I should remind you all about a wonderful contest that Avalon does every week … The Picture of the Week! This contest is fun and easy and anyone can enter.

To enter the Picture of the Week contest all you have to do is take a photo including your favorite Amaretto Breedable (Horse, K-9 or Bird). Once you have a photo that you are happy with (you can edit the photo, that’s allowed) upload the photo to Second Life, make sure it is full perms and put it on a notecard with your name.  All we ask is that you keep them clean, no nudity or profanity.

There are 2 locations to turn in your notecard:

The main Horse store:

The landing dock at the K-9 and Bird area:

k9-and-bird-dock

Then all you need to do is drop your notecard into the camera!

On Wednesday Avalon will collect all entries and pick her favorite! The winner gets a GREAT prize pack of Amaretto goodies, their picture displayed at the main Horse Store  and on the front page of the Amaretto website!!!

I know we have some creative breeders out there and I want to see you enter the picture of the week!

You can look at more of the previous winners here:

Check some of the winners out and maybe you will be inspired!!!

You can enter the contest more than once, you can win the contest more than once and you can enter the same picture from the week before!  So get in on the action and you might be our next winner!

Until next time, Smile!!! You are a member of the GREATEST Community in SL!! Be proud, Be happy, Be inspired …. Be Amaretto!!!

Let Every Day Be Christmas

Christmas is forever, not for just one day,
for loving, sharing, giving, are not to put away
like bells and lights and tinsel, in some box upon a shelf.
The good you do for others is good you do yourself.

Merry Amaretto Christmas!!

This week I wanted to tell you all about filing tickets and how to do it !!

First I tell you where to go to file a ticket
http://www.amarettobreedables.com/

Click on support and this page will open up
http://support.amarettobreedables.com/index.php
This is where you can create a new account or log in on your account that you created.

Remember to always include your full Second Life name as this helps the CSR to get your breedable back to you as quickly as possible.

Include your transaction if you have purchased a breedable and it has become duplicated . Remember Amaretto has no control on breedables or consumables duplicating but we can fix them 🙂

When you have a missing breedable or bundle, nest , kennel please be sure to add as much information as you can such as uuid , name or even parents information. This is where naming your breedables comes in good.

Be sure to check your ticket as the CRS will response to you as the next step .
Add your breedable in a folder and name the folder. Never send a breedable without it being in a folder as the CSR does not know whom it came from, so always remember to put it in a folder with your name and ticket number am send it to the CSR that responded to your ticket.
Your ticket will be closed if not responded to in 3 days !!

Dakota’s Call to Action!

Happy Thursday!  Today I am delighted to use my blog to issue a Call to Action to all the Amaretto Breeders out there that are working on special projects!  As you all know Amaretto is always planning toward the future and striving to give our breeders what they want.  So with this Call to Action I am calling on all of you who are working on projects with your horses to let me know what you are missing for your projects?!?!?

Are you breeding horses with the Snowflake, Candy Cane, Demon, Colors, Rainbow traits? Which ones are you missing? Which traits do you want to see Amaretto add so that you can add to your project?  Is there a project you’ve dreamed of doing but you would need a certain saddle that is not available in order to start this project? Then send me a notecard with everything you’d like to see added so that you can keep working on your special project!  I want to hear from you, yes you, drop that notecard on me!

This goes for all things Amaretto!  Send me your wish list for the traits in you need in your Bird and K-9 projects also!

We need to hear from you so that we can plan for the future, don’t get left in the past dreaming about how you could improve your project, get that notecard sent to me ASAP!  We strive to be a company that our customers can communicate with and rely on, so I want to hear from YOU!  I can’t wait to start receiving your Call to Action notecards!

Until next time, Smile!!! You are a member of the GREATEST Community in SL!! Be proud, Be happy, Be inspired …. Be Amaretto!!!

A few things to Remember!

Hey everyone its a Terrific Tuesday here at the Ranch! I hope everyone is doing well! I wanted to take a few moments to let you guys know about a few things that people seemed to be confused about since the 5.5 Horse update!

Lets talk about Forever Foals for just a min if you have an older version Forever Foal you can still redeem them by following the instructions in the box.
However if you have purchased a Forever Foal since the 5.5 update there is no reason to send that in its works like a reg consumable now. You will not be able to transfer these consumables.

foreverfoal

I am not sure why I even need to go over this one but I will, to get a Confection Coat. Zodiac, Galaxy, Elemental or Dazzle horse you do not have to breed the same eyes together but you do have to breed any 2 Confection Eyes. 2 Zodiac Eyes, 2 Galaxy Eyes, 2 Elemental Eyes, or 2 Dazzle Eyes!

For more information visit our Wiki:
http://wiki.amarettobreedables.com/index.php?title=Main_Page

Another thing I want to mention is the Haven sim there is no longer a Haven sim but dont worry there is a Haven, Puppy Paradise, and Bird Sanctuary board at every Amaretto location!!

We are making progress every day on the ponies, I know you guys want details but thats a little hard to do and keep them under wraps but don’t worry as I said at the community meeting Ponies are currently priority number 1!

I want to encourage all of you to come together as a community this holiday season and enjoy all the really cool things that Amaretto has planed this month!

If there is something else you think I should clear up please shout and let me know! This is Ava over and out!!
