It is that time of month again, time to vote on the next Member of the Month (or MOTM for short)! A MOTM is selected every month by the users of IcePets to receive 50,000 IP and this exclusive avatar:
REMEMBER - You cannot nominate yourself or members of staff. - PLEASE do not ask other users to vote for yourself or other members. - You can only nominate users who have not previously won MOTM.

The Makoats have had a well deserved revamp thanks to the lovely @Hornbuckle! Makoats have also been made available in Brown!
What would a Pet revamp be without a matching Morphing Potion revamp? These lovely potions were done by Miss @Remlyn!
Bet you thought we'd forget the default Makoat Avatar and Stamp Collector Avatar! The old Stamp Collector Avatar featured a Makoat, but thanks to the fantastic @Read, it's been updated to relate a little more to Stamps. X)
Press CTRL + F5 if you don't see the revamped images!
This has been a fantastic collaborative effort from @Hornbuckle, @Remlyn, and @Read! We appreciate all your hard work guys, thanks so much!

Hey everyone, just wanted to let you all know that the IcePets PayPal has changed from payments@IcePets.com to icecash@IcePets.com . This address will be used for all purchases made onsite. It has been updated on the Buy IC page as well as the Gold Account Purchase page. Also...
The Pet Request page has been recoded thanks to @MisterPhilip! You now no longer need to send money directly to the IcePets' PayPal. Simply click this 'Buy Now' button, make your payment, and a Request a Pet Item will be automatically sent to your account! Thanks @MisterPhilip!

Hello everyone, we have some bad news and some good news. And some Items.
@Programmer has stepped down from the programming position for IcePets. He realized he does not have the time necessary to complete the recode, and feels he would not be able to complete it in a timely manner.
Do not fret! @Programmer is a fantastic person and a good friend, and would not just up and leave us to fend for ourselves. He made contact with his good friend and has brought him to IcePets!
Please give a warm IcePets community welcome to @MisterPhilip! We have been working with him for the past few days and we really like him! XD @Programmer has said @MisterPhilip is a top notch programmer and is wonderful with user interface. @Programmer has promised to get @MisterPhilip up to speed to where we are in the re-code and will help him with any questions the rest of the staff are not able to answer.
Sadly, another member of staff has left the team. @Vermillion has decided to leave the planet Earth in favor of another planet.
*Shifty eyes* Alright, alright, @Vermillion's time is being taken up by her schoolwork. Should she find time in the future, she will be welcome back to the team. (:
Some of you may remember these guys! In order, they are Cup of Lemonade, Cup of Cherryade, Cup of Blueberry Lemonade, Cup of Limeade, Cup of Orange Juice, Cup of Pink Lemonade, Cup of Plumade, Iced Tea, Fire Snowball, Wind Snowball, Ice Snowball, Earth Snowball, Sword of Darkness, and Survivors Score Boost! You have @Hornbuckle to thank for these revamped Items! For those of you who noticed that the Ice Snowball was new, it's stocking in the Battle Shop (;
That's all the news for today, @Programmer, @Vermillion, you will be missed. @MisterPhilip, welcome to the site - See you around!
Our users have had some nice things to say about @SunnySparks:
-I always see her on the Introduction boards welcoming new members to the site, and always offering to help them, and being very kind and chatty! I think she deserves to be MOTM this month!
-I had the chance to talk to this user this month and she was an absolute sweetheart. She is very kind and nice to talk to. It is great to see members like this on Icepets, she really deserves MOTM.
Congratulations, @SunnySparks! You will be given the exclusive Member of the Month avatar as well as 50,000 IP!
Unfortunately, we will not be celebrating Staff of the Month this month! All of our staff members are working extremely hard, but we could not name one staff member who stood out the most. This means there will not be a SOTM item this month.
