That's actually a very good point, I didn't even think of them adding extra details. The heart poof for the tail is a great idea, I really wish they did that! I could also maybe see the neck fur being shaped like a heart too. Now this seems like a missed opportunity haha

Sorry to burst the bubble there! I think I also like the fact that not all of the Draik is patterned, some of it is just pink. They could have done that with the ruff and tail for example here, particularly if they made them heart shaped! The eyes and nose could also do with being a different colour to the face so they stand out, so as the face is a dark pink, make them light!

I always love to see more Cybunny enthusiasts. I have one on my main name Spawn_Of_Bunnicula (or Bunnic for short) that I got lucky enough to zap Chocolate. Three years in and I still haven't changed her lol.

I never paid much heed to Cybunny's until last year - when I couldn't get one until this year! I wanted a baby bunny with a murder wall, but then started looking at other colours and the plushie and oil paint in particular are wonderful.

I now have a whole lot of bath bombs for the weekends efforts. And a polar lights effect for today. 

Still need the darn book!

Today I found and I decided on the Plasma Negg.

                                                               

Secre, this is going to be heading your way.

Thank ye! I got the candle from the polar negg today.

I mean, the Valentine is cute. But lazy. They could have really played with this like having a heart poof of a tail. Instead it's just a colour scheme slapped on a Cybunny. I mean they did it with the Draik!

The Draik is really well done with the different design on the stomach and the heart shaped scales and tail end. This is just... lazy.

The dancer outfit is gorgeous though. They've really done well there. I adore that. 

I've made three Cybunny's - I have Cylenced on my baby side who is going to be my new murder bunny, Cyrenye on my main because it's a pretty name and Cymbolism on my side. Not sure I need three Cybunny's but I now have three Cybunny's anyway! I do like the Plushie Cybun so may have Cyrenye as Plushie. Cymbolism would make a nice Oil Paint name but Oil Paint is such a faff to customise. Admittedly, I don't have an Oil Paint yet so that;s a part in it's favour,

Whoop! Straight into my gallery it goes. *happy dance!

I... guess I should have expected that. Well, I still haven't settled on a colour for the pet so I guess I got time to wait.

They need to find a more reliable way of introducing PB's into the system than solely though nerks. With Premium memberships dropping off, they're even thinner on the ground than usual!

I just got a gathow for my pet and I was planning on painting it tyrannian, but honestly I think I might go for elderly now?

I'd wait a while. Petpet brushes have inflated to hell because of it. They were like 400k. Yesterday the cheapest was 900k and now they're not on the SW at all. Sighs.

Whoop, I'm now at two stamps! Safely stashed in my SDB for selling purposes later!

Secre (sorry I don't know your 1st name). I'm glad you got that Plasma Wearable. I know you've said it was a goal to get that item. I checked it out and I I see how it displays on the pets. I don't know if I am crazy about it or if I would even use it. If I happen to get one is it something you might want 2 of (for another pet)? Your welcome to have it if I get one.

Thank you! I'll gladly take one off your hands if you get one you don't like, but feel free to sell instead. I'll likely buy one for my main side as well at some point if I don't get a second. It's a pity it doesn't work on mutants as I think it would look quite cool!

I SWEAR there used to be an emoji on like every forum in existence that had a guy running around in a circle waving his hands frantically.  I need that one right now, thx.  Wheeee!  One of my faves got SO MUCH!  I am not a fan of the markings on the toy, but it looks so soft and snuggly    I need to get a second kougra now, too, so I can get that smuggler outfit.  Erm, sans the weird hairs because those look iffy, and sans the gloves, but aside from that the whole thing is just completely fab!  (Also, I'll be the oddball.  I didn't think teeth, but the strings on a hoodie so you can make it tighter around your face, and until I figured that it was a weird braided beard thingy, I was thinking it makes the outfit look like a little kid playing dress up.)

It's not just you. I also thought hoodie strings!!

I had a Kougra. But I painted it Faerie as a teen... and got hit by the Invisible RE when playing NQ not long after. So he was Cloud for a loooooooooooong time. Then Camoflage when I got bored. And I eventually morphed him into an Oilpaint Ixi (with the Zombie Tux for special occasions). I now love him waaaaaaay too much to morph him back to a Kougra.

So it's new pet time! Although I'm after the giant ball of floof!

I may just need a Kougra again! It's so floofy! The eyes aren't quite right on it though. Several of the NC options look better;

Birthday Kawaii Contacts                                                      Fiery Sun Contacts                                                         Sparkly Closed Eyes (DW Orange)

Holiday Lights (all the DW look awesome as well!)

And look at the grumpy elderly kitty!

The Outfit is nifty. Simple but well executed and could be mixed and matched in a variety of ways. And I love the manes!!

Finally got the Plasma Wearable! Now I just need the book and the plushie!

I have the stamp (yaaaaay! First time) and then two slushies and the petpet from the plasma negg (booooo, I wanted the wearable!). 

I definitely want the plushie from the rocket negg (they have already dropped in price significantly so even if I don't get one, I'll buy one). And the book and the plasma effect wearable. After that it's dupes of stamp/book/wearables for later re-selling.

This just a suggestion. I have been in the Secret Ninja School for quite some time. I too used my Red Codestones for training. I was spending so many NP's to train I was ready to give up. Finally I started buying FQC's for training instead of the school. Every quest bumps your stats more than one point and most always includes more than one stat. Of course, this is something you already know but I thought I would mention it anyway. It really increased my bank when I started selling those red stones instead of using them.

I do both currently! Training via cookies is definitely a huge boon! But yeah, the codestone prices are ridiculous. I just paid 45k+ for the Cui's. And typically, this mornings training also wants Cui! In comparison to the smoothie for the Earth Faerie which was 2650 and netted me 2 defence and 2 HP. Huge difference!

I'm just plodding my strength up via the training school right now. And taking whatever Faerie boons I can get for everything else!

I've been having this problem again recently, although it's gotten worse over the last 36hours. I was thinking it was my laptop at first and turns out... not me  The site has gone down intermittently the last few days as well. Maybe we should mass send Support tickets! Meh we wont get a response so.. Funny Ive been on TDN for years and never made in account but it was overdue, thought I'd give you the heads up its def not on your side. 

Take care, have a great Evening/Afternoon<3

Glad to know it's not just me! It's been driving me crackers though. Mass tickets sounds like an awesome plan!

I'm having fun and games around the site at the moment as it keeps glitching on me randomly.

When buying from user shops I get the 'this transaction has expired' despite only just opening the page. Followed by 'you've reloaded too quickly' that can last for several minutes and even after refreshing the shop proper. On several occasions, I've had to go to the user's profile and re-click on the shop through there in order to get the thing to work properly.

In my SDB I'm getting told I need to put my PIN in. Which would be fine. But I put my PIN in first time! So I have to go back, refresh the page and then withdraw items again. 

Is anybody else getting these weird glitches and do we know why they have started happening so frequently?

Does the Secret Ninja School always want a Cui Codestone from me?? I have so many red codestones stockpiled, but so very few of them are Cui and the repeated reliance on them has reduced my stock to the point that I've had to buy more. I'm in double digits for all of the others (or close enough) and yet it's Cui, Cui, Cui!

Apparently according to the Reddit hive mind, camo is meant to be a ferret.

Either way, both are fairly boring colours. Meh. 

The outfit feels a bit bleh as well...

The origami colour is very cute indeed!! I love the scales going down the snout!

Not so sure about the spiky things. I agree with @GlitchtaleLover that they might work better without all of them there...

Just bit the bullet and sold my AC stamp from last year. That's a ... scary amount of neopoints...

I was chuffed when I saw that my shop had netted me another million, but this takes the cake!

Reason I sold in the end? I am never, ever going to have enough neopoints to complete the stamp albums now, so there seems little point in using such a darn expensive one!

I finally got around to re-stocking my shop and pricing everything - bought a months Premium for the SSW as the collectible was also cute this month. 

Made over a million and still got a full shop. Most of it is lower priced books/stamps/clothes now admittedly.

the page reloading every single time is really aggravating and now that we can't even get back to the original they NEED to come up with something its N O T an improvement at all, i've avoided anything like pinatas for this reason now

I wish I'd got through my backlog before the new inventory became the only inventory. Poor planning on my behalf, but yep, definitely NOT an improvement. I'll refrain from buying any more. It's not as though I actually need the CC points in honesty. If CC ever happens again.

Uggggh, hard agree. I totally avoid anything that requires that kind of repeated option now because it's SO annoying and time-consuming. I wish you luck with your efforts!

I got stuck at the 36 mark as number 36 was at about 40 hits and counting and my irritation got the best of me.

I feel the same with feeding pets, especially items like Pizzas. With the old inventory windows, you could just go back with the arrow keys and refeed them until it was gone, but now you MUST wait for the whole inventory page to reload. It is INDEED frustrating!

I haven't done anything with pinatas yet, is there an avatar or something for smashing them?

I stick my pets in the flea hotel and be done with it, I'm afraid.

There is: https://thedailyneopets.com/neoavatars/pinatas-amp-candy

But it's only for the first pinata you break. I'm hunting 'cheaper' CC items as you can often buy the Pawkeet ones at a very low price and they have the possibility of one or two six point items in them. Which is how I came to have a stockload. Bought them whenever I saw them cheap and then couldn't be bothered to break them. Only I waited too long and now I have to do it via the new inventory. 

I used to just re-click on the item in the old inventory and it would 'refresh it'. No reloading, no back button. Just use it in the pop up and then click on the item again in the full window. Why do they have to make things more tedious...

If you go to the neopets index, then click on a neopet, you can feed them or play with items in your inventory faster than from the inventory page. I don't know if the avatar for the pinata works that way though.

 

Oooh, I'll have to try that and see if it's any quicker. I'll report back!

I mean, they weren't fun before but now the page reloads every time it's just mind numbingly tedious.

I've done 16 out of 52. And so far I'm not having good luck either

6 points: 6x Jelly Bean Pirate Chest, 3x Candy Pirate Earrings 

2 points: 7x Pirate Hat Toffees, 4x Pawkeet Pencil Sharpener, 6x Fire Candy Buttons, 4x Glowing Top, 4x Buried Treasure Crackers, 4x Rice Crackers, 3x Wooden Pirate Ship, 2x Stripy Spinning Top

1 point: 3x Altador Yoyo, 2x Dipped Orange Bonbon

Urgh. And there's 36 to go...

That's for the base pets anyway. There are almost always a few exceptions where specific colours appeal to me though. So grundo's do very little for me but I like the Halloween and Marshmallow ones. Burlap Meerca's are cool, the Woodland Techo was nicely done, And often the Mara/Mutant versions are cool, although again species dependant.

Thank you!  I had completely forgotten we could do more than one, so I was a bit lost when I noticed all of the ones he had up.  I had pretty decent luck with him, so I figure I'll stick with the one I used before.

He had some awesome days last month apparently. Unfortunately I missed the big wins by becoming active again during a Trash Week. On the plus side, you've missed Trash Week! 

(Trash Week being a week of upsets where either 13:1's won in the positives or there were double upsets and so the safety bets didn't cover the possibility.)

Yay! I've been trying to get this for ages... when I remember at least!
