Absolutely beautiful... Look at all these new custom avatars!!!
Looks like Read has done it again! She has delivered some very sparkly and delightful avvies! So let us see what we have here...
Zip-zooming around, super fast and super awesome, Speedie has this brand new avatar! Faster than a speeding ban hammer...
Meilan requested this shiney avvie, but I am not so sure I will be making a wish on this Gold Star any time soon...psst...it says dictator...watch out!
If any one has a cat at home, they know to LISTEN when the kitty says this...or you just might have an Angry Cat on your back! This meowing and hissing avatar is for Coffin!
A shadowy figure awaits any one who wishes to speak with Orc on the forums! Beware!
Hmmm...I wonder what this avatar tells us about our lovely staff member Tokcando? Whatever the message, it sure is shiney...oooo...
Keyara has a brand new fancy swird as an avatar! The green is very fitting for this month of March, dontchya think?
I tip my hat to ya, Karis! This is a very lovely gift to your friend Kintoshi! You know, Fedora hats are one of my favorites. Hope Kintoshi enjoys it as well!
That is all for avatars for now. We hope you enjoy them and look forward to bringing you even more!
EDIT! Just wanted to add the following avatar that Read made for herself! Wooot!

Sorry for taking much longer than expected for news!.
So yeah, one thing led to another, and well, I finally have news updates for you:
We are please to announce that the Member of the Month for March 2013 is...
...Canine!
Congratulations Canine! We appreciate all that you've done for the Icepets community. Enjoy your 50,000 IP and exclusive secret avatar!
Some Comments about Canine:
Canine was browsing around the site, randomly gifting people stuff from their wishlist - Even if she didn't know them. If such a person doesn't deserve to be MOTM - Who does?
Canine has helped me out in the past to get the items that I needed. Thanks so much!!
Be sure to keep your eyes peeled for the next round of the MOTM, and be sure to voice your opinion on who you think is the most deserving in the community to receive the title and rewards that go along with it!!
=============================
Congratulations to Tokcando for being voted SOTM!
As a team we have voted for Tokcando to be awarded with the Staff of the Month award as he shows enthusiasm and dedication towards IcePets and his role as Moderator.
To celebrate this, Tokcando has had an item released in his honour:
Rainbow Coindrawn by Roar
Hint? Tokcando likes to collect this theme..
================================
New ICE Shop Items
The love-themed items in the ICE Shop from last month have been replaced with some nature-themed items to recognise the Season of Spring! (in the northern hemisphere).

The Love and Evil Morphing Potions have also been added to the Limited Section.
===============================
New Staff Manager
The responsibility of Staff Manager has been passed to Osteology (previously it was Nate).
Osteology is now responsible for managing various aspects of the IcePets Staff! Got an issue with a Staff Member? You can PM her directly!
She will be doing this role alongside her normal role as Moderator!
Congratulations Osteology!
==========================
On a minor note, our server changed time so the times on the forums may have been a little off for the past day. That issue has now been resolved!

Due to the large number of queries, questions, (and complaints) regardling the Traptur Candy Dispenser, the action has now changed.
You are still shown two options, however playing with a pet will yield the same chance of breaking as any other toy.. OR you have the option to Dispense. This will automatically give you all 10 candies that are hidden within the dispenser!
