Hello hip kitties and MoonCat owners -- today we've released a new tool to help you transport, duplicate, and/or hand off in-progress or completed MoonCats Boutique designs.
Please note import/export is specifically for items designed inside the Boutique tool, and does not support importing other formats at this time.

1. Make sure ALL tabs of the MoonCats Boutique are closed prior to attempting to use the Import/Export Tool. This includes any tabs in the designer, as well as the broader Boutique and FAQ
   (This is also your periodic reminder that you should only ever have one Boutique Designer tab open at any given time, due to how the designer regularly saves ongoing works.)

1. Open a new tab, and head to https://mooncat.community/accessory-io

​

1. If you’re Exporting a project (saving a copy to transfer elsewhere) choose which design you’d like to export. Click or tap the COPY EXPORT DATA button under your ongoing design.

2. Open up your favourite text editor, email program, or other method of storing this information, and copy the big old string of randomness you got from the Boutique tool. Remember anyone can use this data, so you can share it with other designers for collaboration collections, hand over a commissioned design to a client, or use this to duplicate base designs which have different final variants.

1. Once you have your design exported into a string, head back to https://mooncat.community/accessory-io and copy that big strong of randomness you received from the Copy Export Data into the box marked Paste Export Data Here. This can be on the same device, a new device, a different browser, or wherever the Boutique Designer is supported. The button underneath this box should now have changed to Import: Project Name (where Project Name is what you called the accessory)

2. Continue designing! Hurray!

Remember that the Boutique will not permit you to mint two completely identical items.
