Get ready for the CREATURES CAVES EGGSTRAVAGANZA!
A duo of Easter bunnies, namely Laura and Mea, come bearing chocolatey tidings! In the same spirit as the Community Scribble, they're going to create a community-made patch plant, eggsploding with Easter eggs! Download one of Mea's templates from the Sprites Gallery and decorate your very own egg!
Choose between two bases for your design:
Plain: Shaded: Eggxample:
Whether you decide on spots, stripes, patterns, or something completely out of the egg basket, let these blank templates be your canvas. We'd love to see your ideas! Just be sure to e-mail your masterpiece to Laura, by March 31st 2014, for it to be used in the final release at Easter.
Well, what are you waiting for? Get cracking!

Five days into the Eggstravaganza project and we've already received an eggxtraordinary 31 eggs! It's completely scrambled my mind with so many eggcellent designs (haha... Okay, okay, no more egg puns!). Thank you, everyone! We are two very happy Easter bunnies!
We could always use more though, in order to get a good and varied assortment! If it helps those of you who still want to contribute, our egg basket is still lacking enough eggs with yellow, orange and red colours. We look forward to eggxamining your take on Easter! |

That would be smashing, cptmashek!
Also, I've just had a rummage in my egg basket, and it looks like we could use some more green-coloured eggs too! |

That's great, Espeon_DS! I bet yours will be eggceptionally good. I'm also having fun designing my egg. There's still plenty of time for those of you who want to take part and haven't done so yet. I'm really looking forward to seeing what eggs are still to come! I wonder how many we can collectively make before March 31st? |

UPDATE: Tomorrow marks just one week before entries for the Creatures Caves Eggstravaganza close on MARCH 31, 2014. Don't miss this final opportunity to have your designs turned into a fun and festive Garden Box patch plant, by sending your Easter eggs to yours truly. No artistic prowess required, anyone can take part!
Thank you to everybody who has contributed so far! With the current total being 80 eggs, I wonder if we can reach a nice, round number of 100 eggs before then? I say challenge eggcepted. |

You'll probably have more than that by the time I'm finished with mine and have them sent in! Although I don't mind if some of them don't get used for the sake of that even number.

That's Eggcellent news... I can't wait to see the plant, it's sure to be Speggtacular. Sent you one more egg because I just couldn't resist.

I'm eggstremely glad you laid the reminder, Laura - I have to chick my emails but hen I can work on some designs. I find graphics work quite eggsacting, but it's a fowl day outside, so why not? |

I wish I could like that post more than once, Nutter. You've given me a chicken run for my money there, bravo!
It's made me feel very chirpy this morning to see more people wanting to hatch out some designs of their own. I'm really looking forward to seeing what eggs are laid this week; soon this Easter chick can start working some eggtraordinary magic with the CAOS Tool! |

Wow, I can't believe you've got 80 eggs already! Are there any colours that are under-represented at this point?

And counting! This patch plant is going to randomise very nicely indeed. 8) As far as colours go, there's a good, broad spectrum going on; no colour appears to be over or under represented. |

Finally sent in my eggs! Hope those will do, Laura! I might make a couple more by the deadline, but it's best for me to get these in before I forget. I think I've been saying I would work on them for a month. Nice. Ha ha! Can't wait to see everyone's creations!

That's great, Jessica; I really love how a few of your designs represent different aspects of the community. I've also gotten some awesome eggs from Kezune, Arnout and NimhsLab today, so thank you! |

With so many people scrambling to donate designs, I think we will eggceed 100, if we haven't already. This patch plant should end up looking quite eggstravagant.

I'm happy to reveal that we've overshot our goal of 100 eggs, thanks to further contributions from Nutter, Pirate-Rob and Blueseraph! This has certainly eggceeded my eggpectations. |

Thank you Mea and Mioonktoo for adding to the sea of yolk I'm currently swimming in. Remember, tomorrow is the last day before the deadline, and the final opportunity to send in any last minute eggs! |
