Custom Creature Shop Update
Complete overhaul of the custom creature shop with mobile compatibility and separated menus for easier shop management and navigation, particularly for owners.
Aside from bugs that may be present, this is my last layout/shop update for the month. The remaining few such as Cooking, Alchemy, Smithing, Tattooing, Mercenaries and Breeding will be reworked next month (and are very likely the easiest shops to update compared to everything else).
This update will likely require a ctrl+f5 to work right.
Also fixed a tiny auction bug with the previous seller page.

Grinding Shop Update
The grinding shop has been given mobile compatibility and more sophisticated creature selection options. Free accounts can grind up to 25 creatures at a time and players with support status can grind 50.
Also, I added marble type selection to the auction setup menu so you can filter between buff and sickness marbles while placing them up in your auction.

Massive Auction Update
A CTRL+F5 will be necessary to make the auction function correctly.
Here's the nitty gritty:
Auction Update Details:
The auction layout now has full mobile compatibility.
Checking and unchecking updates on bidding will now work asynchronously within the auction. This update applies to both the bidding and product viewing listings.
I had to make a universal change to the input and submit buttons. Let me know if you spot the buttons looking bad outside the mobile compatibility mode.
I am allowing new auctions to run up to 30 days, and the Credit Shop Key Item that allows you to run auctions for an extended period will be removed. Purchasers will be refunded when it happens.
I reduced the number of pages the auction is spread out between for easier maintenance.
I cleaned up the product bidding menu. Redundant information should no longer be present, and the new interface should only tell you what you need to know based on who you are.
Bid times are now displayed so you can track last-minute bidding more easily. This listing will be updated as players increase their bids.
There will only be a next button if there are more objects or sellers to see.
When selecting objects during the search, your results will narrow down according to the filters you choose.
After working on this for four days, I probably need to remember numerous other changes.
I'd appreciate players watching new auctions they set up closely for input irregularities. If I did things right, back-end functions should be unaffected by my update, only user interface stuff. But that doesn't mean a bid you place or an auction you set up won't be inaccurate in some way.
I hope everyone enjoys this update I've worked hard on.

NPC/Credit Shop Update
Credit Shop layout was updated and several of its items had their descriptions cleaned up.
I also removed the shake from bouncing text since it was a little too unnecessary and had funny issues on mobile layout shifts.
Lastly, when a product is re-displayed a slight delay was added so you'll see NPC responses.
Edit:
Orion's Equipment Shop was updated as well.
