Picture of the month August 2019!

Hey guys its another Manic Monday! I have something to tell all of you, well Ava has been slacking………

I forgot to announce the picture of the month!

If you dont know what im talking about its a contest that is open for everyone to enter, all you gotta do is snap a photo of your favorite Amaretto breedable and put in in a nc and drop the notecard off in any camera. On the 15th I pick up all entries and pick a winner.

So today im making a little extra fuss over this months winner because i forgot!

So congratulations to Markus Margulis for the picture of the month of August!

I love seeing all your creative ideas that you have with your breedables! This is Ava over and out! Happy Breeding!

Elemental Horses

Hi Everyone

Today I want to take a look at the Elemental Horses that were released way back in 2011, these horses are still completely amazing and a must have for all collectors out there!

To have a chance at getting one of these randomly dropped Elemental horses you have to breed Element Eyes together.

Elemental Eyes Wiki Link HERE

The Elemental Horses can be randomly birthed by breeding together any two horses that have Element Eyes.
Elemental Horses can NOT pass their coat.
However breeding an Elemental Horse with another Elemental Horse or with any other horse with Element Eyes you will slightly increase your chance for another Elemental Horse.

Elemental Horses Wiki Link HERE

These really are one of my favorite eye-bred collection of horses, they are beautiful and amazing!

Thats it from me today, so get breeding those Element eyes together and happy breeding.

Hugs Marku <3

Expired!

Hey guys its Friyay! I still get asked all the time about expired bundles!

On almost a daily basis, we continue to see people ask why they’ve gotten a bundle that says “expired breeding”. This Connection is intended to explain the reason why.

On Saturday, April 27, 2019, Amaretto released the ALL NEW 6.01 Horse update. This update is jam-packed with lots of new and exciting fixes, changes and additions. Read Josie’s connection for a detailed listing https://amarettobreedables.com/connection/?p=19131

The updater can be purchased for L$0 at any Amaretto Breedable Horse Store. Find locations here https://amarettobreedables.com/pages/locations 

As with all past updates, there was a time limit for you to get your horses updated in order for them to pass viable bundles. 

Per the note card from the update:

AFTER Saturday May 11, 2019 WE WILL NO LONGER PROVIDE SUPPORT FOR HORSES THAT ARE NOT v6.01* HORSES MUST BE UPDATED TO V6.01 TO FUNCTION PROPERLY!

Q: What do you mean by “not function properly”?
A: ALL versions that are not v6.0 will no longer produce viable offspring. Meaning any bundle produced by all versions that are not v6.01 will have the text EXPIRED BREEDING, will not birth and cannot be fixed.

***So PLEASE update your horses before May 11, 2019

As that date is now past, any bundle dropped, from a horse that is not 6.01, will show “expired breeding”. These bundles CANNOT be repaired. DO NOT FILE A TICKET! You are advised to delete the bundle, update the horse and start again.

Remember, pregnant horses cannot be updated, but, updating female horses, in recovery, will remove their recovery period and they can begin building fervor again, immediately.

It is up to YOU to stay informed about your breedables. As Josie stated in her Connection about being proactive ( https://amarettobreedables.com/connection/?p=19341 ), we provide information to you on a daily basis via notices, blogs, Facebook, and Twitter.

Connection posts are archived by month, forever! From the main Connection page ( https://amarettobreedables.com/connection/ ), go to Archives to read every Connection that has ever been posted.

Save yourself the time, effort, consumables, and loss of bundles by making sure all of your breeding horses are updated NOW!

Until next time…HAPPY BREEDING!

Im searching……

Hello everyone! I wanted to take some time to talk to you guys about some great Second Life tools that may be useful. What am I talking about ?? Area search!

There might be a couple reasons you want to use the area search feature!
Maybe you lost your favorite breedable and can’t find it where you left it! Or you wanna figure out who all has objects out on your sim or parcel!

You can find the area search under world> area search if you are using the firestorm viewer!

There are several different options that you can include in your search so you can check the ones you want to include in your search.

In this example im searching for all objects owned by Avalon Crystal on this sim.
As you see here Ive just put in my name and hit search!

Viola!
You will see a whole list of objects that I own on this sim!

You can right click on any object and see the following information and options.

This is a very handy tool it has many different search options as I showed before so it could be Owner, Object Name, Description, Group, Creator, or Last Owner.

I have found all kinds of crazy things people have left behind at markets that i frequent, so try it out and see what you find! I hope that I have taught a few of you something new about second life! This is Ava over and out!

Craved Greek Key K-9s!

Hey everyone its Hump Day!!! That means we are on the downhill slope to the end of the week! As usual I wanted to spotlight one of the new Craved coats. Take a look at all these amazing Greek Key K9s!

Craved Greek Key Blueberry Pie English Bull Terrier
Craved Greek Key Green Apple Pie English Bull Terrier
Craved Greek Key Plum Pie English Bull Terrier
Craved Greek Key Mixed Berry Pie English Bull Terrier
Craved Greek Key Cherry Pie English Bull Terrier

How do you get one of these you ask? Originally Starting July 1, 2019 until July 31, 2019, you breed any two of the following Yorkie Standard Blue and White, White Snow Wolf, Silver and White Miniature Schnauzer, Pug Solid White, or Pug Morrison White, you had a chance at getting a Craved Greek Key K9!

But never fear if you didnt get to breed your own, these breeds DO have the ability to pass! I really think these are some cute K-9s!

You can always check these pups out on the wiki:
https://k9.amaretto.wiki/index.php?title=Craved_Greek_Key

Well I hope everyone has a great rest of your week! Don’t forget to get those nominations in for the breeders choice awards this is Ava over and out!

How do I reply?

Well i wanted to talk o everyone for a min about something that I have been seeing a lot of lately. We all know that its no fun to file a ticket cause that means there is a problem! Amaretto tries to make it as painless as possible, however we need some help from you guys.

Have you ever seen anyone in the group saying Amaretto hasnt answered my ticket and they closed it! Well let me tell you that Amaretto does answer every ticket, and never close anything without a response, even if we tell you that we cant fix your problem we will always respond.

So one thing that you can do to help us is by not filing multiple tickets for the same issue or a related issue from another ticket.

However there are times that we can not proceed with a ticket until we get all info needed to solve your problem.
If you leave any ticket unresponded to for 3 days your ticket will be closed, but that is only after we have waited for 3 days for your response.

So what should you do if you need to respond to a ticket that you already have open?

Here are the steps to reply to your ticket:

  1. After you have logged in find the button on the top menu bar that says View Tickets.
  2. Once you are in this view you will see your ticket list.
  3. To view your ticket and make a reply click on the title of the ticket above the status bar for it
  4. Once in the ticket you can post a reply in the upper right hand corner with the post reply button
  5. Be sure to reopen the ticket or your response will not be seen

This even works if your ticket was closed because you did not respond within 3 days.

Remember PLEASE DO NOT FILE DUPLICATE TICKETS FOR THE SAME ISSUE. It can cause confusion for the staff and can also delay the ticket process. Tickets can duplicate from hitting refresh on the web page after filing a support ticket. If this is the case, please refrain from hitting refresh when filing future tickets.

If you ever have trouble logging in or filing a ticket please contact me in world Avalon Crystal. Well happy breeding everyone!

Did you know that all the above listed people sat thru 47 classes to get their Certificate of Completion?? I do want to say one thing and I hope no one takes offense if you are attending the ARU classes in hopes of getting special ARU animals you should stop now. There have been classes who got lots of gifts classes that got no gifts, ARU is not about the gifts. If you are attending ARU in hopes to get a free horse or any animal I have bad news, Amaretto has never said we will give gifts to graduates in exchange for them attending classes.

Just for kicks in case someone doesn’t understand what a gift is
gift
/ɡift/
noun: gift; plural noun: gifts

  1. a thing given willingly to someone without payment; a present.

Amaretto does appreciate the breedable community and people that use our products, so if we did choose to give you a gift then that is what we will do.

If you have any questions about the ARU or classes offered please contact me in world. I hope everyone has a great Monday and Congrats Grads!
