HOLY RABIES YOU GUYS! My Kougra, lisaiuna, JUST FISHED UP A FLASK OF RAINBOW FOUNTAIN WATER!!!!! I NEVER THOUGHT IT WOULD EVER HAPPEN! I AM SO FREAKING HAPPY AND SHOCKED RIGHT NOW!

Hi friends!! I've been on Neo for 12 years now, and after numerous hiatuses/breaks I figured I'd come back and try to interact with more communities this time :)) A little about myself: Over the years I've submitted several comics to the NT! What began as fun comics turned into me becoming an animation student in college now. I've had lots of fun drawing Neopets related artwork and the site has definitely been a huge artistic inspiration to me ♥ Sometimes I get tied up in thinking about "the old days" on Neopets, so I thought reaching out to a community will help remind me that the site is still alive and well! Excited to talk to all of you!! ♥

Marble

I finally got this avatar! It has been years since I have been going more or less every day. Woohoo! Now on to the next one I need and will probably never get....Lever of Doom.

Apparently it's called Portoro Marble Black with Gold Veins but it could also be inspired by some Mythical Dragon

I've done it!! Now I'll have to come up with a new goal for myself.

I've found a background that works with the flatly-drawn Advent Calendar fireplace! I'm stoked! I'm doubly pleased about this because it's a background that I'm pretty sure just about no-one uses because it's kinda rubbish xD I'm aware the arch really doesn't fit the aesthetic of the room, but hey, let's not get judgey about other people's decorating choices. xD Think of Berry as living in a rented house - a small Victorian terrace by the look of it - that got some dubious structural changes made in the 70s and hasn't been re-decorated since, lol. I really like the cosy vibe though. But mostly I just LOVE how that nice red bowl on the mantel is actually the top of a big vase. xD The fireplace actually works some magic and makes the room look a LOT wider, check it out. vs. Handily hiding that lack of maintenance too! xD Yep, this is def rented property xD I do wish that arch wasn't so very 70s, but I do love how it creates two separate spaces, though the bottom of it argues with pretty much any lower foreground item. These plant stands are pretending they have legs there, when it's actually the arch showing below them, lol. But yep, I'm very pleased with the cute home Berry now has. Now I'll leave her to curl up on that very comfy-looking sofa and drink her hot chocolate.

The ray is fired at Luffiere... ... and she changes colour to Candy!! It's a bit creepy ><

The ray is fired at pizzadeliveryguy... ... and he changes colour to Glowing!! Every delivery guy turns Glowing after a while .. I need to get the premises tested !!!! Maybe my establishment is sitting on a nuclear waste ground !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Whoa... did it actually work? Sure looks like it. Your Petpet has been transformed. Imagine that.

Sites back up!!

I've actually just sent them a message on Facebook to almost exactly that affect: "Hi Team, Can I respectfully suggest that you move your Charity Corner forum post update to the main news field? Most people were thrown for a loop by the price change on the prize changes, because the first - and often only - place we check for news is... well, the news feed. Certainly it would never have occurred to me to check a random branch of the forums when I never go on the forums unless it's for NC trading. I only discovered the forum post because somebody off site mentioned it. I'd also note that whilst many of us will be pleased with the lowering of prices for prizes, you need to address refunding those who already bought their prizes. It takes a significant amount of time to deposit thousands worth of points at 15 items a go, and those individuals who bought early will be even more disheartened to see their points wasted in this way. (No specific ticket number; I hadn't redeemed my points so don't need refunding. Just a note that there may have been better ways of communicating this change to your players.) Communication is the key thing here and it has been rather lacking in honesty. You could have communicated the anticipated change to the snowball situation six months ago, and your dedicated fanbase wouldn't have spent the time and effort in setting timers and ensuring they visit the Healing Springs as many times a day as possible. Instead it was communicated in a brief FAQ released on the day of the event starting. It wasn't rocket science to realise just how badly that would go over with people who have spent the better part of twelve months actively prepping for this anticipated event. A little communication - proper communication, not a post in an area of the site that most of us don't even know is there a day after the event starts - goes a long, long way. Make your fanbase feel appreciated, because currently I can see a lot of disappointment, anger and resentment leading to people cancelling their Premium and potentially leaving the site for good. Many thanks."

Okay, I swear most of my neohome rooms are not like this. But while browsing for furniture, I discovered that there's a furniture item called Open Grave from the Tale of Woe plot. So I did this. I used 51 of Wiggling Seaweed Plant in this because they are cheap.

TDN welcomes you to the month of September! Links: Home | Battlepedia | Customisation | Items Database | NeoAvatars | Forums This month, we have these events: Draik Day on September 9th Techo Day on September 13th The Annual Chocolate Ball on September 15th The Poogle Parade on September 19th The Faerie Festival on September 20th The Annual Gormball Championships on September 23rd Skeith Day on September 25th Other things to do: Dailies | Monthly Freebies | Faerie Crossword | Pet Transfers

Don't forget that the Deaver is your friend during CC. This little guy can be bought for 8 dubloons from Little Nippers with those (1 CC-point) dubloons that you get for free from Anchor Management, and he's worth 4 CC-points. I've been getting one any time I need to make change from larger dubloons for training, and have a little pile of the furry guys now. xD During the current CC accumulation period I made the very important discover that (special) does NOT automatically mean r101. That was quite a moment for me let me tell you! There's a slew of 4-point (r102-r179) items that you can get from various dailies:- The older omelettes bar the plain and rotten ones. The mutant plushies from the Wheel of Misfortune apart from Headless Von Roo. These are the two I see most often on the money tree so I'm guessing they're the ones won the most frequently? Weapons from Coltzan other than his basic gem and the Serf Lens these two fairly often on the Money tree Battlecards from Cheat This is the selection I've got from the Tree in the past 15 months Anything apart from the Yellow Growth on Buried Treasure. I'm always THRILLED to nab me some rancid old meat from the good ol' MT. Looking on the list of r102 to r179 items Cheeseroller and Brain Tree quests can net you 4-point items too, and the Deaver isn't the only 4-point Pirate petpet, it's just the best value for money dubloon-wise :3 I bet all of you will have some of these items in your SDBs already. Also don't forget your shed and closet! Some furniture has high rarity, I know I've ended up with needless multiples of some items in my closet without even realising. OHH, AND... open any Pawkeet Pinatas that you have! Yes these are a rare - worth 2 points themselves - but what you get out of them is almost guaranteed to be worth it. I opened 13 with a CC points total of 26, and the items within them gave me 82 points! This recommendation comes courtesy of @jaydeed Hope all this is helpful.

I completely forgot about my Mazzew being aged, I just happened to click on that Neopet. Something Has Happened! You are now eligible to use 'Mazzew' as an avatar on the NeoBoards!

Something Has Happened! You are now eligible to use 'Quadrapus' as an avatar on the NeoBoards! Whoot! I now get to put my new Snowbunny on that pet and paint it Maraquan! Excitement! EDIT: Well, that was a faff. I was about to get really cross that my pet wouldn't accept his bleeding expensive new petpet - and even changing the language wasn't working! I then had the idea to attach it to a different pet, paint it and try to re-attach to my pet. Thankfully the 'Maraquan' in front of the name seems to mean that he now likes it!

Sooo, my intentions for Tiny_berry have changed entirely and I'm keepin' her now xD I didn't look before but checking today I see she's an OLD pet, she's over 19. Her petpet's been with her all that time too I can't deal! So this solidifies my decision to keep her, if I'd done the Grape Chia thing and repounded her I'd have to have removed the petpet as you can't leave a zapped petpet attached can you. And look how adorable they look together! I'll need to leave her in that romper forever as they coordinate so nicely. I called the carmariller Mic as it's Romanian for small/tiny, and Transylvania seems as close to Darigan as we're gonna get. So it's back to fun-times with Ray for misterfloo! Hee hee hee! The ray is fired at misterFloo... ... and he loses two levels Bet you've missed that, haven't you fella! So not zappin' his Albot so he can keep him when he moves on. :3

Just seen this on Reddit: So it looks like the Vandagyre is the new mutant! And one player could make a bloody fortune selling that!

Hah! That was me! I had great fun with that one I have to admit!! I have to create a Jetsam at some point in the future just to bring it to life!

6 votes isn't bad at all given the fact the entry took me 2 minutes but honestly this was my favorite entry and i'd have loved to see it win

I started playing a couple months ago and finally lucked out! If only the real life odds were higher...

I've been after this TCG for years and years ... I almost gave up ...

Another sorta valuable item! These random "Something Has Happened" events are making me feel better about not prepping for CC... it's reversing the NPs I'm spending at the General Store.

Chocolate and PB in the same day .. that's pretty random if you ask me

Not really something we can answer as they might have altered the method again (though I really hope they haven't!). They did cobble together a quick discard option via your inventory last year; once the howling of dismay over how slow their cutely animated method was got so loud that it could be heard from space. Ofc they didn't tell anyone they'd done this, they just left it for you to discover it, and some people didn't, for days, but that's beside the point. That enabled you to donate up to 15 items at a time. You did need to check each box, there wasn't a check all button like in Quick Stock, but if they use that method again this year hopefully there will be! It was quick and easy once this method was there though.

That invisible customisation is bringing me a lot of joy!

You guys! CC prep is such a long haul thing. I've been preparing for this coming one since the last one ended. Not buying anything other than sticky snowballs, got a nice stock of those now though. All the rest of my quantity of items - Items: 2,830 | Qty: 20,790 - is Dailies and BD prizes and r80+ stuff snaffled from the Money Tree throughout the year. Oh, a bit of that figure in Advent calender stuff, because like @Scoobert_Doo I just can't bring myself to get rid of that, but that does only account for the last 5 pages or so of my 95 page SDB. So yeah, 90 pages of stuff, collected in 15 months. My premise is simple, don't get rid of anything. xD

I got the silver trophy in Sutek's Tomb. I'm still mourning my first excellent game where I reset it at 35,000. That might easily have won me the gold!!

So I posted a little while ago about my foster sister joining the site. I sorted her a welcome pack and everything. One of my pieces of parting advice was 'Always spin the Fruit Machine!'. Well... it looks like that worked out for her... Names removed to protect my email address and her details in general as she's under 13. But what bloody luck is that!?

I wish Habitarium and Key Quest were kept.... even if they had to rework the reward system. I had absolutely shit wifi back when I first played neopets and Key Quest was so stressful, but I really wish I could play it now...... Habitarium was so good and chill, and it really added dimension to the petpetpets? made me really care about those little critters

I was struggling with managing to make wishes for quite a while there, but talking about the well on the Shenkuu board got me somewhat sporadically wishing again, like maybe five times in the last week, and whadaya know, I won again today! Get your wishes in, people! *goes off to wish for Usukicon Y22 Goodie Bag*

Yeah, that crepe, looks more "creepy", than crepe-y. The more I look at it, the more disturbing it gets...

You realise the site is still very much up and running and alive? Still staffed and updated etc? And I imagine there are far more people who consider it a fond memory of their childhoods - many of us have returned during the Coronavirus epidemic. Lining the pockets of the new owners as we can now afford Premium and NC...

Try to find an owner Transparent Poogles are rare . I don't think I've seen one before

I mean, I didn't see phallic there (until you mentioned it... now I definitely see it!), but I definitely see a whip and chain in order with this hood... EDIT: Welp. I seem to have killed this thread completely! Sorry, guys!
