f[[File:Redesign Chive.png|alt=Chive (Mothcats Mascot) will be used as a reference for this guide.|thumb|Chive (Mothcats Mascot) will be used as a reference for this guide.]] Having second thoughts about the hot pink eyeshadow markings you added to your MYO? We’d like you to be happy with your Mothcat; owners have the ability to change their design in both small and larger ways when it’s time for a new look. Simple design updates can be made without admin approval (see “Minor Design Changes” below). However, larger changes, for example, major color edits or trait changes, require admin approval through Ayana’s Beauty Salon (or a note to the group for trait changes). These changes can be made with items such as dyes, purchasable using in-game currency. Those looking to make multiple, sweeping changes to a Mothcat’s design can utilize the Salon Service at Ayana’s Beauty Salon. Here, you can commission an Official Artist to redesign your Mothcat, giving them snazzy new official art for their Mothchive entry in the process! One common theme underlies all Mothcat redesigns, however, whether a self-service dye or salon makeover: '''the redesign must be recognizable from the original design, and maintain the theme of the adoptable''', if applicable. == Minor Design Changes ==Minor design changes can be made without going through a formal process. The general guidelines for minor design changes are: * Small markings can be added or removed * Present markings can be expanded slightly * Shapes of present markings can be changed * Minor hue shifts are allowed (within [http://ideas.demco.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/6/2014/06/color_wheel.jpg analogous] color range)* Overall design must be very similar to the original design === Examples ===<gallery widths="200" heights="200">File:Redesign Yes 1.png|Markings ChangedFile:Redesign Yes 2.png|Markings RemovedFile:Redesign Yes 3.png|Color of Markings ChangedFile:Redesign Yes 4.png|Minor Hue ShiftFile:Redesign Yes 5.png|Marking ExpansionFile:Redesign Yes 7.png|Small Additional MarkingsFile:Redesign Yes 6.png|Shape of Markings Changed</gallery> == Major Design Changes ==Major design changes require admin approval and must undergo special processes to be accepted. '''All "in-game" options are "free" and do not cost real-life currency to perform.'''
