That's right! TDN's Avatar Lending Program is happy to announce that our Bony Grarrl Club is now available to request! Info and requirements can be found on the ALP site here, and the item can be requested on the bottom of the "Items for Lending" page here. A reminder that spamming the forum for post count, or begging for free/cheap lends will not be tolerated and may result in being unable to borrow from the ALP in the future. Thank you to everyone who helped us reach our goal, and safe lending!

Don't think I'll ever get the lucky streak avvie, but glad to have this one under my belt!

If this ends up being like a logic puzzle I will be so excited! I love doing those in puzzle books, even though I'm not that good at them. :S

So incredibly jealous! I've been trying for this one for a while. Actually managed to get to the silver die yesterday... but no luck.
Good job!

....I kinda want the Rainblug timer back.
 
It was cute.

Wow! What a creative way to spend your cat's birthday! Hope she enjoyed her food and you enjoyed your cake :P

AND IT WAS AWESOME! :D
 
My cat, Emily, turned 1 on July 31st. She is my very first pet, and a dream come true (I've always LOVED animals and wished for a pet for most of my childhood). So I thought: "what the hey, it's gonna be cute!". And it was!!! :D
 
I want to share this unique moment with you guys :)
 
The theme of the party was Marie (from The Aristocats, a very proper theme, right? :D ):
 

 
Me and the birthday girl in her very first dress:
 

 
"Blowing" the candle (there was a german pie for the humans and wet cat food for Em :icecream: ):
 

 
My friends, Emily's "godmommies" <3 (no faces because I'm not sure if they want their faces out here):
 

 
...And the goodie bags! :oneeyed01:
 

 
Crazy cat lady in training, anyone? :P
 
 

This is Mouseykins, still on location in my Altador holding cell. My first message was successfully delivered by my newest friend, Mighty the Mootix. I shall continue to report on the events of my capture.

After Mighty left, I slept and didn't wake up until the sun was starting to rise in the sky. The guards haven't brought any food to me yet and I was famished. I figured I'd call for the guards, "Hello! Can you hear me? I'd like to get something to eat. I haven't eaten anything since yesterday." I waited for a response but none came. Instead a guard came to my cell with a tray of food and slid it under the door without saying a word. As the guard walked off I picked up the tray and set it on the cot. Taking off the lid, I was hoping for something decent to eat. Instead I found a lump of Cinnamon Raisin Oatmeal, a slice of cold buttered toast and a glass of Apple Juice. The food looked very unappetizing and I was not impressed. I'll refuse even a good bowl of oatmeal. Left with no other choice, I ate what I was given. After eating and twiddling my thumbs with nothing better to do, I went back to sleep. Hopefully Mighty will be back soon.

I'm not sure how long I slept for, but Mighty still hadn't returned. I was starting to get a little worried for him. Staring at the stone ceiling, I continued to wait for Mighty. Several hours later I heard the familiar squeak of Mighty's voice. He had returned a few minutes ago and noticed that I was asleep and woke me up right away. Mighty informed me that he was able to deliver my message to Jerry. He explained that it took him a little longer to return than expected because he had to wait for a response. I untied the letter from his back and began reading it.

Dear Mouseykins,
I have received your message and by the time you're reading this, it will have been published. You stated in your note that you were requesting help getting out of this predicament you caused. I'm sorry to say, but there is nothing I can do. Our hands are tied over here. We are constantly being watched by the guards and have even had them search the office. They left quite a mess too. I suspect they're keeping an eye on us to make sure we don't help you escape. I wish there was more I could do, but for now you're on your own.

Mighty has told me that he will continue to serve as a messenger between us. Please keep communicating with me so I know you're alright. I have given Mighty strict instructions to only show himself to me. If you continue sending me story pieces I will have them published.

Best of Luck,
Jerry

After reading Jerry's letter, I took a deep breath. I was a little disappointed that my colleagues are unable to help me right now. Maybe I shouldn't have frozen the guards last year with my Freeze Ray. But with their strict security not letting press in, they were kind of asking for it. I guess I'll see if Mighty can help me escape when the time comes. For now I guess I'll be waiting patiently for the perfect opportunity.

Once again I have tied this report onto Mighty's back for delivery up to coverage headquarters. After he leaves I guess I'll get some rest and hopefully get a few bright ideas.

This is Mouseykins for The Daily Neopets putting her pen down to dream up a foolproof plan.

Just got this beauty!
 
I've been going for it for ages, and it's my birthday today so must be my lucky day :D

This is going to be my first year doing the AC.
 

I think I'm going with Roo Island.

The requirements on the ALP lending page are just for the lower-level items. We haven't nailed down specifics yet for the BGC, but it will involve post count and avatar count for sure as well as some showing of excellence in other areas. Basic trophies (Cheat, Altador Plot etc.), stamps, account age... these will all be taken into account.
 
My advice would be to figure out what you're passionate about and have that reflect on your lookup. Is it your gallery? Then aim to get a gallery spotlight trophy. If it's battling, have a high-level BD pet with a good HSD. Kads? At the very least have the avatar.
 
Now, don't completely neglect other areas (An amazing gallery is nice... but not that impressive if your pets are all basic, uncustomized and starving).
 
Ultimately all applications for lends will be decided on a case-by-case basis. We'll be looking for people who care about their account and have invested time into it and would not do anything that would risk getting them frozen.
 
We will announce the requirements when we know them and are ready to start lending the BGC.

So I'm trying to get the MSPP avatar, I followed TDN's avatar solutions which says to "View your inventory while carrying a Malevolent Sentient Poogle Plushie (TCG) there."
 
I've refreshed at my inventory multiple times but the avatar won't show up.
 
Here's what I'm doing:-
 

 
As you can see I'm clearly carrying the MSPP (TCG) in my hand so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong :(

They're beautiful! I especially love the first ring.
 
It's so nice having jewelry passed down. I love jewelry, but family heirloom jewelry has so much more meaning to me.
 
When my mom was 18, she decided she wanted a diamond ring and was going to buy herself a small one. Instead, her great-great aunts gave her one of theirs. It's an antique style that is 9 small diamonds set to look like one large stone. When I turned 18, my mom passed it down to me. I actually wear it daily with my wedding band since I never had an engagement ring, and it makes me think of her. (She's currently battling cancer, so it's an additional constant reminder of her when I see my hand)

What makes you think that everyone will have it? Not everyone can get on every day, people are bound to have missed days. Plus there are three prizes if you build the ray gun whatsits individually, and a different prize if you build them all together.
 
I don't think TNT have an everyone's a winner mentality at all, in fact quite the opposite a lot of the time xD they reward people who are on the site 24/7, and quite a number of people aren't able to do that.

Absolutely beautiful! Reminds me of the movie Lady in the Water

Yikes... Plushie Chomby Balloon x5 - going at 89000NP each currently. I hope that the rest of this event does not end up being quite as expensive :s

No prob! It is on its way :)

Spritzie, do you still need a Chia Clown Punching Bag? I have one I will send your way if you do.
