I can confirm that the Twilight Tower is NOT needed to breed a Dawn or Dusk if you already have one. I will upload photos shortly (I first have to transfer them to my laptop). I used a Sun and Dawn to breed in in the EBI, but used my Twilight Tower to change it to night. Was able to breed both a Sun and a Dawn! I can't confirm whether the time affects breeding one with a Sun and Moon however, as they are not currently released, as both display grey hourglasses in the Dragonarium.
You shouldn't NEED to transfer the photos to your laptop before uploading. I use three file sharing sites (Dropbox, Flickr and photobucket) and I can upload a photo to all three from both my iPad and phone. Of course you may want to because it suits your workflow.
Time for the trusty tutorial to posting pictures in this forum. This is for anyone who would like to know - it can be done on any device with internet connection that I know of.
How to Post Pictures On The Forum This will be using imgur. Make an account and log in. Find and press this upload button:
in the top right hand side.
Next you should be presented with this screen:
Be mindful, I am on my iOS iPad, so a computer or android version will probably look slightly different. Now choose the photos you want, in my case, simply by clicking on them. I have a choice from my gallery, but on the computer this will be your computer documents.
Click ok, and the pictures should be presented in a list, ready to upload, as so:
Click "start upload". The upload will take about 5 seconds per picture on a fast iPad or computer. Once it is complete return to "your gallery" of pictures by pressing the back button in the top left corner of the screen.
If you refresh, the uploaded pictures will appear in your gallery. Choose the one you want to upload and you will be presented with something like this, although a different picture, obviously:
Here's the problem; you don't want the link. You want the "Bb code" because that is what can be integrated into forums. You want this because then anyone in the forum can see. Your picture without having to change browser at all, or even follow a link. For you techno geeks out there, it works similar to how "smileys" work, by implementing coded formats for a different visual representation. To get the Bb code, click on the arrow next to the word "link" (a direct link to the photo) and you should get a drop down menu. Select the option saying "bb code", like so:
Your code will start with img in square brackets, "[" and "]". And end in /img in the same brackets.
Copy this code and then paste it into the forum and ta-da there is your photo.
This may seem complicated, but it's great because I can screenshot something, get on imgur and upload it within a few clicks.
Proof that this works can be found in the pictures I provided in this guide as visual aid.
Hope this works for you
No longer active on DragonVale! *briefly back online*
I used tickets for a Midday and got another one by breeding on the CBC woth another Midday. It was really easy, I had few fails, none longer than 8h.
Really happy with my gorgeous avatar by ElektronX! GCID: Andr3i4 Any and all friends for Cooperative Breeding are welcome. Gladly accepting any twins also.
Yep, that's similar to what I'm getting at. If you have 550 tickets saved in the social list from challenges, in one big item, and you hit collect, are you left with 0 or 50? Going by what you're saying, Fletch_smf, it does sound like it'll work.
I guess the way to test would be to get close to the limit, say 499, hit collect on something and see what happens.
I think how it works is that individual sub-gifts are still there (for example, your 550 could really be 200+200+100+50), and those sub-gifts can't be split.
So if you collect 1 ticket from it, my theory is that it'll use up anywhere between 50-200 tickets.
Please report back for science if you're doing that. Also make sure you close and reopen your social menu afterwards - sometimes the count immediately after tapping the button is wrong.

Wait. You can upload pictures to Flickr from your phone? is that an app? I need to go figure that out!
Something weird is happening in my park, tapping on habitats is not giving me tickets since the reset... I have shut down & opened twice but still no tickets. I'm reluctant to want to collect anything else in case no tickets collect. I got several weird messages before did anything after reset saying I had exceeded the daily limit, it happened 3or 4 times. Anyone else having problems?
Edit: clearly not just me then, thanks BS.

Main Park - playing since July 2012 Friend ID: Noodles#4656
Same here in my baby park. Collected 0 tickets and I'm maxed out. In my main park though, I was able to collect 1000 even though doubles should have ended.
Well, 936 actually before it kicked me out with an error message, but my tickets are still there.
I had Kairos ready and entered my park just before reset to do the "keep doubles active by avoiding park reload" trick and everything worked fine for a while, successfully collected doubles on a number of things. But then, while spinning the wheel (before I ever got to Kairos), I got the "A wizard's spell has gone wonky in your park" error and my park reloaded. I then got half a dozen "you have reached the maximum" messages while each of my previous banks got loaded back into my Gift tab. Tragically I was only a few dozen tickets away from the undoubled daily max (500) when the error occurred, so I didn't successfully beat the normal limit before reload. Curses! But at least I was able to bank the Challenge award which I had luckily restarted before the error.

Hydrogen is a colorless, odorless gas, which if left alone in large enough quantities, for long enough, will begin to think about itself.
Probably already mentioned somewhere in the last 30 pages, but it's always better to do Wheel of Chance because you have a chance at gems that way. While Name That Dragon is arguably more fun, you can always acquire your daily tickets from other means but there is no other way to get free gems in this event

I got the message that I had maxxed out when just signing in. I got 4 of those messages, but each time, the time to reset had decreased. I got the messages back to back. After the 4th message, I was able to begin a quest, so I knew they were simply back logged messages when I over collected last night. Checking my banked tickets, I had 677. I maxxed out today by simply collecting my friends gifts and BFS bank. Still have more banked tickets waiting. I played no games, got no more tix from doing anything...done until tomorrow. Seems BFS is really trying to accomodate the wishes of many of us who want to play but not grind all day long.
Btw, non stop breeding for delirium in CBC and EBC, since the beginning of availability. Nothing. Except a whole lot more Silver Dragons. Oy. Long fail times.

So with everything everyone is getting, it told me I had earned 140, then 200, then 4 tickets. Which would show as a gift from BFS. Yet, when I look in my gifts, it just shows the 160 or so that I didn't yet collect from yesterday. Doesn't reflect the 140, 200, and 4 that it said...happen to anyone else?
