    =====================

    I am still waiting on my developer to finish up on the Classifieds Control Panel so I can use it to encourage members into becoming paying members. Google Adsense has become a real burden on the viewing of this site, but honestly it is the ONLY source of income now that keeps it afloat. I tried offering disabling the ads being viewed by paying members, but apparently that is not enough incentive. Quite frankly, Google Adsense has dropped down to where it barely brings in enough daily to match even a single paid member per day. But it still gets the bills paid. But at what cost?

    So even without the classifieds control panel being complete, I believe I am going to have to disable those Google ads completely and likely disable some options here that have been free since going to the new platform. Like classified ad bumping, member name changes, and anything else I can use to encourage this site to be supported by the members instead of the Google Adsense ads.

    But there is risk involved. I will not pay out of pocket for very long during this last ditch experimental effort. If I find that the membership does not want to support this site with memberships, then I cannot support your being able to post your classified ads here for free. No, I am not intending to start charging for your posting ads here. I will just shut the site down and that will be it. I will be done with FaunaClassifieds. I certainly don't need this, and can live the rest of my life just fine without it. If I see that no one else really wants it to survive neither, then so be it. It goes away and you all can just go elsewhere to advertise your animals and merchandise.

    Not sure when this will take place, and I don't intend to give any further warning concerning the disabling of the Google Adsense. Just as there probably won't be any warning if I decide to close down this site. You will just come here and there will be some sort of message that the site is gone, and you have a nice day.

    I have been trying to make a go of this site for a very long time. And quite frankly, I am just tired of trying. I had hoped that enough people would be willing to help me help you all have a free outlet to offer your stuff for sale. But every year I see less and less people coming to this site, much less supporting it financially. That is fine. I tried. I retired the SerpenCo business about 14 years ago, so retiring out of this business completely is not that big if a step for me, nor will it be especially painful to do. When I was in Thailand, I did not check in here for three weeks. I didn't miss it even a little bit. So if you all want it to remain, it will be in your hands. I really don't care either way.

    =====================
    Some people have indicated that finding the method to contribute is rather difficult. And I have to admit, that it is not all that obvious. So to help, here is a thread to help as a quide. How to become a contributing member of FaunaClassifieds.

    And for the record, I will be shutting down the Google Adsense ads on January 1, 2025.

Has this been done? What would an all white/all dark snake look like? Probably just a grey, almost super pewter looking snake?

I have been wondering the same thing for a long while as well. I have seen super cinnamon lessers, however, no super lesser super cinnies. As soon as I hatch a cinny lesser male, I will be on it. Going to go for a super cinnamon karma eventually, most likely, since my cinny mystic girl is almost at weight already. Of course that is going to be a tough call because she is my only mystic combo animal at this point, and a super mystic cinny is a much higher priority for me to make, which I am going to be trying for this year.
 
I would really like to shoot for a double super sometime soon, along the lines of an ivory/super pastel X BEL/super cinny
 
My guess is that it is going to look like a BEL, but you would be able to that it is super cinnamon based on the head structure. I think it will be all white, because leucism is essentially a lack of pigment all around. No pigment=no super cinny color. :( Although I do hope that it retains some coloring to keep things a little more interesting.
 
A super ivory super cinny would probably be a little more interesting, seeing that ivories retain some coloring. Now there's an idea!!!
 
Super cinny ivory does sound like a good idea, now the wheels are turning in my head. Then I will need a super pastel BEL. Dang this game is expensive :)
 
There are a few people that have been thinking along this line (at least in terms of ivory/super black pastel)...haven't seen any babies, yet, though.
 
Super supers are way cool in concept. I'd like to see a super fire super lesser. I really wanna know which eye wins out. The blue, or black...
 
i think the super mystics/phantoms and super specials might have the best shot at expressing a supper cinny ect...i kinda feel like the bel would just be white :(

Yep will more than likely be all white with the super cinny head structure.

I actually am already starting the super mystic super cinny project. I am half way there already, and as long as I hit a Graziani Cinny Mystic male this season from my mystic x graziani cinny pairing, I should have it covered. This season I am going for super mystic cinnies as well with my mystic male x bhb cinny mystic female. We should know what the super mystic super cinny looks like in the next two seasons here.

I would think the black eye would win out, but it would be interesting to see for sure
 
was thinking about this one more...on the topic of super + super combos, throw the little used super enchi into some stuff, that, if anything, will keep as much color/pattern around as possible :)
