Hello everybody! Knil Chan is and forever will be the creator of Panda Box. However, due to real life priorities, she has handed over the shop to Faforechao, her younger sister in real life.
I, Faforechao, aim to keep the Panda Box community going. I will be handling affairs with the help of the regular PBers.
Let me keep this brief. This store sells pixelated pandas that hatch from eggs, and they live in very civilized environments.

Hello PB.
I know I haven't been around at all, and that's entirely my fault. School was quite busy, and now during the summer, I'm not even sure what I'm doing anymore. There's a lot going on, Knilly's shipping off to college soon, and all that jazz.
But that being said.
PB is temporarily on some kind of break right now. There won't be any kind of events until I get things figured out.
What things? Aside from figuring out a way to more effectively manage this shop, I've been inspired by Gaia's item normalization project [Don't know what that is? Check out the Announcement or DARKNRGY's journal entry.]
I'm planning on re-doing the system for the way the graphics and 'boxes themselves are managed to make it easier for the graphic artists, the users, and of course, for myself.
What I hadn't realized was how much of the old stuff was lost when Knil's old laptop went down.
And I've been digging through all the files I have without much success at finding them.
Lily and I also have some trouble with keeping each other in check with who's updating which boxes, which boxes are already updated, and all that stuff.
So, if you're TL;DR -ing this:
Panda Box is currently temporarily on a hiatus until I figure out a way to systematically manage this shop better.
Feel free to post any questions/suggestions you may have. I'll be checking on this thread every so often.

Hello everyone. I know it's been a rather long time. Really, really long time.
I feel like I'm always making excuses, but I guess I'd rather just be straight up than make false promises and the like.
But for serial, Knil and I have both been extremely caught up with school and family things. As I type this, I'm in Knil's room because my room is currently being used as a guest room, and there's a fascism essay waiting for me...
I'm about to go update some affiliate links. PandaLily has been doing awesome with what she's been doing. Sadly, I'm still on a hunt to find older files for updates. It's been unsuccessful.
There probably isn't going to be an event for a while. Maybe once finals are over [that would be the end of June for me], I can get back into this shop.
Sorry about all this, really. I'll try to get stuff done as soon as reasonably possible.
Oh, and yes, Knil is going to college. Isn't that exciting?
Have a good one.

Haven't had an update in a while, whoops. XD Hey everyone. Ish Faforechao.
There will be a flatsale today at 4 PM EST. Finally, I know right? Funny how the latest Gaia set goes right along with it. XD
There will be four available eggs. What are they? Well... And yes, the four winners will get to pick. Who wins? The first four (properly filled out!) flatsale forms posted in this thread after I say go. (:
As for what else is planned, I can't say... because I don't know. XD For now, after this flat, I wanna finish cleaning up this thread and get some PBs updated. Something along those lines.
Oh, and there's a chance it won't start right away. I have an essay to write today, and I'm feelin' five or six pages on this sucka.
Have a good day. (:

Greetings everyone. (: Faforechao here.
Let's keep this announcement brief. Yes, I'm busy. Yes, I've been inactive. No, you cannot order pandas right now. Yes, you will be able to eventually. No, I don't know when. Please, stop PMing this account about their availability.
As of right now, I have very little free time. I might try to do some kind of holiday/New Year event, but I dunno. [Fruits Basket zodiac for the new year? Random holiday things? Who knows?]
I want to clean the thread a bit, and I'll make time for that once I get the chance. Housing orders should open up too [but limited], but once again, scheduling is redunk.
Like the title says, it's "chill out time." RP or throw around event ideas or just post. (:
Happy holidays to you and yours in the mean time!
Yours truly,
Faforechao

Hey guys, it's been a while. O: I hope you all have been well. (:
I've been pretty busy with just enough free time to sleep, eat, and breathe. The next couple of weeks aren't gonna give me much free time either. I've got a bunch of school/friend/personal things and I'm livin' in America [at the end of the millennia~] so there's Thanksgiving. My 16th is coming up as well as auditions/rehearsals for my school's spring musical then there's Christmas and the New Year! Wow, where did 2007 go?
Right now, I'm awaiting orders from the winners of the semi-custom RP contest from Halloween. Yeah, that took a while. I'm going to try to see if I can find time for some kind of holiday event before 2008 rolls around, but trying to get my permit might get in the way... Haha, just kidding. I'll try to see if it's possible but no promises. I also want to open a couple of slots for housing orders, because those haven't been done in forever. Oh, and if an event's gonna happen, I want your input and ideas. If you've got any, post 'em! I wanna know what you PBers want. Flatsales? Auctions? Something? Hit the thread up~
Peace, yo.

Sup homefries? 8] Faforechao here.
I've been lurking during my free time [the little that I have]. School's been crazy for me, but I do want a Halloween event. It won't be too big judging by my schedule irl.
The three auction'd End of Summer pandas are completed [See the last post on page 1195 if you lose them or just wanna see.] I'm still not sure what's going to happen to the fourth PB. I'm thinking I'll throw it into the next auction that's held. That's later in life though, still concentrating on whatever's happening for the Halloween event. I still am going to re-do the furniture section eventually. Orders are not yet open, sorry to say.
As for all you people wondering how Knil Chan is doing, she's currently balancing college apps with Mario Strikers Charged and the five thousand things she's involved in with school. She also has a car, which is excellent news for the both of us.
Hit up the thread [NOT PMs, thanks] with questions or suggestions if you feel like it.
Have a good day. (:
September 9, 2007: Auction + Raffle here
Ideas for during and after this event for the rest of this year:
Auction/Raffle Pandas
Updates for active users
Re-do furniture post/new sets up to Z?
Make new accessories
Re-organize other parts of the thread
PLE? Y/N?
Visiting?
Possible new thread layout
October/November Flatsale
Halloween Event
Turkey Day/Winter holiday events?
Customs?
No promises on anything though.
September 1, 2007: Happy September guys! I'm planning an auction for sometime soon. It will be based on your typical summer memories, and there will be four available. Once the auction is said and done, updates for the PBs belonging to active members will also happen. Other events for the future are planned as well, don't worry if you want a panda but don't like auctions. Don't ask about customs right now.
I also plan on reorganizing the first page [trying to make it less word-y if possible] as well as making a different set-up to present furniture.
Panda Box is also welcoming anyone willing to contribute as the year gets busier with the start of school and the such. Anyone who has any ideas for the thread or would like to volunteer themselves, feel free to post or hit up the guild. The positive reaction and the amount of support and volunteers are wonderful. Once a system gets organized, there'll officially be jobs and the like for helpers. What you can do now is spread the work and join/post in the guild and this thread. Ideas, questions, and suggestions also rock.
August 24, 2007: Panda Box is now under new management. Faforechao is handling PB affairs. More info later. In the meantime, check out and fill out the PBer Input Survey in the guild. Page 1173 info post too.

(1)Panda: This is your little pet and friend. They need care and love, and of course lots of room to play in. You can name your panda, choose his or her gender, and - if you want - roleplay them with other owners.
To the left are the different icons that represent the moods your panda can display. Be aware that emoticons shown in the box itself, not this mood meter, do not actually represent their overall mood! This mood is to show your progress as an owner and their general liking towards you. The top set (blue) is when they're healthy, and the bottom (orange-ish) is when they're sick. From left to right on the top: Very Happy (1), Happy/Content (2), Okay (3), Annoyed/Mad (4), Unhappy (5), Depressed/Unloved (6), Deathly Depressed/Dead (7). Now from Left to Right on the bottom for the sickness moods: Recovering (1), Sick but okay (2), Sick and not feeling any better (3), Deathly sick/Dead (4).

Also, throughout these steps you will sometimes be asked a color. Please use the following chart for reference (only these colors can be picked). You can find the form in the "code" box at the bottom of this post.






STEP 12: Add stairs?
Want a bigger home for your panda? You can buy normal rooms (above) for your V-Day panda! The original home will be floating above the house, and a ladder will be dropped down into the home! This is only available to Valentine Panda owners. You cannot order a ladder otherwise. 




















How much does it cost, you ask? Well, it's free for 8 spots! That's right. You get a free storage with a default 8 spaces. Each space holds 1 item. You can get extra spaces though if you need it. 

























The Diagram
