-	Hi, everyone! We've got big news coming up: we're partnering with Neopets to
-	add "Login with NeoPass" and some other integrations to bring our sites a
-	bit closer together! Here's what to expect and why.
-	_(Posted: March 13, 2024)_
-
-	## Login with NeoPass
-
-	Over time, Neopets is planning to send more users our way, and we want them
-	to have a smooth experience when they get here!
-
-	**So, new users will be able to click "Login with NeoPass" and use their
-	existing Neopets account**, instead of creating a new DTI username and
-	password. Existing DTI users can also link accounts if they want, too!
-
-	**All of this functionality is optional, and removable at any time!**
-	Usernames and passwords will still work as before—and unlike official
-	Neopets accounts that need long-term permanent linkage, we intend to offer
-	both linking and unlinking, so you can always have options.
-
-	We also know that a _lot_ of the pain points in Neopets and DTI right now come
-	from transferring info between our sites by hand. **It's possible this could
-	set us up for other smoother experiences in the future, too!** (Nothing like
-	that in the first release though—we've just been chatting with TNT about what
-	might come next!)
-
-	## Links to NC Mall
-
-	We're also planning to add **a few links from DTI to the NC Mall**, which
-	we'll do our best to make thoughtful and unobtrusive. There's two main
-	reasons for this!
-
-	First off, when Neopets sends users our way, we don't want them to get
-	confused and stuck here. Existing DTI users know their way around NC, but new
-	users probably won't, so we'll add a couple hints for how to get their
-	designs onto Neopets.com.
-
-	The second reason is: we believe Dress to Impress is a critical part of the
-	Neopets economy, and we want TNT to be able to see that, too. We'll include
-	**a lil referral code in the link** so TNT can know which shoppers came from
-	DTI, and can evaluate accordingly. (We expect this to be important for us
-	long-term!)
-
-	## Why now?
-
-	Dress to Impress has always been a **very small-staff volunteer project**, and
-	it's been clear to everyone over the past few years that we're struggling to
-	balance DTI with the rest of our lives 😖 Work and life and family have their
-	own needs, and they've been increasing!
-
-	And so… there are reasons we're being careful talking about details right
-	now, but the gist is: we're hoping that partnering with TNT will not only
-	help us fill gaps in the customization user experience, but can also be part
-	of **a more sustainable future for Dress to Impress long-term**. I hope we
-	can tell you more about it soon!
-
-	I know full well, and I'm sure you do too, that partnerships between
-	companies and fan projects can be complicated. I promise I'm doing my best to
-	represent you all, focusing on securing what's right for the community, and
-	keeping in mind the importance of autonomy! We'll keep DTI independent, only
-	do things we believe genuinely serve everyone, and keep a critical eye as we
-	go.
-
-	So, yeah! It's NeoPass time! We'll be working on this in the coming months,
-	and I'll let you know more along the way. If you have questions or thoughts,
-	please email me at <matchu@openneo.net>, and I'll do my best to listen and
-	help!
-
-	Thanks as always, everyone. We'll talk more soon! 💖  
-	_—Matchu_
