Design Voiding
- Designs can be voided completely from the species unless forbidden by the designer's TOS. Once voided, they can not be reinstated without a MYO.
- The voided design will still remain on the masterlist for future reference.
- The design should be sufficiently altered to avoid resemblance to the original species. Mainly the lore needs to be different.

MYOs
MYO's can be obtained through the following means:

MYO Designs and Approval

- Be based on other designs that you own as long as the original designer is aware and gives permission for this. Trades of any MYO designs derived from other designs must be traded with its original design unless one is redesigned to be sufficently different.
- Design may not:
- Be recognizably similar to any existing copyrighted material.
- Contain ideological sensitive or culturally insensitive material. (No designs with Soviet Union flags or Native American headdresses.)
- Be publicly displayed anywhere except the species' discord or toyhouse forums prior to approval.
- To submit your design, please visit this forum thread or the [] channel in the discord and follow the directions under 'MYO Submission.'
Edits and Redesigns
- All edits must be based on the original design and be recognizably the same design.
- Owners may choose to revert designs to any already approved redesign if desired, barring cases where the design has been redesigned to separate it from a different design.
- Major redesigns will require you to update the design's masterlist image and use a Genetic Engineering Ticket. Drastic changes to traits, colors, markings, etc. will be considered a major redesign. Clothes can be changed freely.
