It's beautiful. <3 I like have the option to change just one part of my dragons.
TOPIC | Glowtail
[center]originally i didnt quite like the gene, but now im pretty happy that attention was taken to remaking it although i personally feel it works better as a baldwin gene. thanks for the update on glowtail though!
gonna do some scries of my own to see if this would be worth using for my tastes:

FTR I love how it looks on Faes. This gene might actually make me like Faes now tbh
it also meshes well with wasp, though idk if thats intentional for it to match wasp as well as it does?[/center]

Great job with fixing the gene! It looks awesome now, you did an excellent job ^^
Playing with it in the Scry, I think I might need a Mouse-Mirror and Grub-Snapper!

I really like that the gene gives you the ability to customize one single part of the dragon, i feel like it has a lot of opportunities behind it.
However, I have some complaints about it. For one, it's called glowtail but appears only to glow when it's against another part of the dragon. Why? Will this be fixed? Firefly doesn't have any issues glowing unattached from the dragon so why is that the case for this gene?
Secondly, I really disagree with the choice of making this a gem gene. Pretty as it is, it's just so simple for the price. Genes like butterfly and Filligree I am willing to shell out the money for. But this one just doesn't make sense. The first inclination I got for this one was a new baldwin gene, but definitely not gems.
I am okay with putting some genes or dragons behind a gem wall as long as they make sense. But this gene does not fit. I hope that the devs reconsider the way this gene is obtained, but I don't see that as a likely option in the foreseeable future.
At the very least, I hope that the devs make the gene glow.

i love it and its beautiful but i really dont think its worthy of being a gem gene?

I've got to admit, I'm sure lots of others like it, but I dont really like the gene myself. I was really disappointed that the gene only seems to glow when another part of the body is over the tail instead of the entire tail glowing. It feels more like a waste of gems, but that's my personal opinion.
Edit: a reshiram fandragon with glowtail looks sorta cool though

anyway, this should be a treasure gene!
theres enough overly paywalled content on this site, and glowtail doesnt even merit the price. its pretty but looks about the same as a treasure gene. and yes i am coming at this from the perspective of an artist - i know that there's work and all that behind all the genes, and im not saying it was easy to make.
but as an artist AND consumer, a little over $10 for a pretty but very simple tail addition? if this website was that desperate for money to stay afloat & pay their employees this would be a different conversation perhaps. but unless that is revealed to be so, this gene is overpriced for what it is.
(and on the topic, paywall play is cheap and not handled well in most cases, and unfortunately FRs accessibility to players with no money for gems isnt handled well, when nearly half the content is paywalled. yes i know you can gather your own gems but the point of gems on this site is to make them money).
but thats an entire other convo. i dont post this with malice or intent to shame the artists behind the gene, but to provide feedback from someone who uses your site and enjoys most of the work put into it, and i am sharing sentiments of others as well.

Still a nope here. I'll save my gems for my current project dragons instead.

Glad that you listened to the feedback and made some quality edits on the gene! It's pretty cute, and does in fact seem like a sort of companion piece to Wasp/Bee. I wish it were a Baldwin gene though if only for lore purposes - it seems so natural that you'd gain the gene from dipping your tail into the cauldron!
