    I've got a fresh one for you:

    But as far as I know, it only exists on youtube and on (the fabulous and wonderful) Patricia Bull's hard disc. I don't know if that's something you can work with.

    It looks fabulous :* One thing I will say though is maybe make the yellowy/brown font a touch darker as it's quite thin on the names of your categories which makes it harder to read. Oh, also you should try and make it so your category names come up under the pictures, I was hovering over the names trying to get to your categories :P I did that somehow on my Plushie Scorchio app (/~teal), you're welcome to borrow the coding on my pets bit if that helps any! I have no idea how I managed it else I would explain XD
     
    Best of luck with the spotlight!!

    Halloween by Aqua. I think it is more of a funny Halloween song, but it's good and I like it.

    I like Boris the Spider by The Who. I don't know if it's Halloween per se, but spiders creep me out so I count it :D

    arkwright got a reaction from vyvren in Neopian Purge   
    Aye I`ve been on it for the purge. I had a list of about 300 when I started; and naturally most of them haven`t purged or people have beaten me to it - though the ones I`m most after there isn`t much competition for.
    Nabbed Khrushchev the other day.
    Other pets I managed to get ---
    Bogey / Grieve / Moping / Methane / Zampano (book character) / Seleucus (personal)
    See -- the last two and Khrushchev NO COMPETITION. And they`re the ones I love the most.
    When I first met my fiance (on Tumblr about three years back), he went under the psuedonm "Seleucus" after the Greek officer. Zampano is one of the characters from my favourite books ever - House of Leaves.
    And I am crazy for Khrushchev.
    Fun times.
    All the other names I`ve got I`ll probably gift out or try to trade.

    I think we all feel like that about our early accounts, right? I know how bad I want the faerie dolls back from my first account. And all the books I bought for 1,000 NP and read to my first pet are CRAZY expensive now :sad01_anim:
     
    I feel for you and the furwitch, but just think: something you have buried in your SDB now could be the furwitch of the future!

    arkwright got a reaction from hrtbrk in Pet Trading... Some help please!   
    A Pirate Draik + Custom could probably get you a low end UC. UCs are strange, they usually go for either very high end converted pets; or amazing names. I`ve seen a VWN UC go for a three letter real word. If you really, really want a UC pet, aye a Draik custom could get you a BN one, or wait around with the purge and try to nab something beautifully named. You never know what you could get for the perfect name, even if it were a basic pet.

    arkwright got a reaction from Bisque in Yay for super-generous people.   
    I toyed with putting this in "Yays and Nays" hence putting "Yay" at the start.
     
    So I log in today with a neomail from someone I`ve never met before, but who knows me quite well because of a guild I`m in on a side.
    She says I look like someone who deserves a wish being granted, because she`d noticed I`d granted many wishes to other people in the past, and given away dream pets to some people she knew, and that I`d been a kind person on the Neoboards and as far as she knew not done anything wrong. Furthermore she had noticed my dream pets page, and noticed that Royalboy Skeith was on my list. That I also owned Royal pets that had saved up for myself, I was dedicated and therefore not likely to trade them off. To top it off, she owned a Skeith Directory, and loved them herself.
     
    Basically to cut a long story short, she`d found me, watched me a little, and then decided to gift me a Royalboy Skeith of any name I liked. So I chose one from the pound and she`s gifting him to me as soon as possible.
     
    Its things like these that make me think that when I`m rich on Neopets, I`m going to definitely grant other people`s wishes all of the time. This warm fuzzy feeling inside is great (y)
    Some people are just so nice.

    arkwright got a reaction from Spritzie in Yay for going to France tonight   
    Thank you for all the nice messages; I just got back. I had an amazing time! Truly did so. We did everything. By everything I mean the Louvre, Montmartre, Pere Lachaise, Army Museum (that was more the boyfriend's idea, and we ended up six hours in there - SIX HOURS!) ... Twas wonderful. I have photographs and all, but quite too many to upload, but here are a few of my favourites because I promised to upload some.
     

    This was at Napoleon's tomb. The boyf such a history boffin insisted on coming here ... Twice!
     

    And this one made me laugh so much because here he is doing a crazy stare next to Napoleon's coat.
     

    Versailles, for you all to see. The place was massive.
     

    The Sacre-Coeur, from outside. Very lovely and cool inside, made such a change from the 30 odd degrees outside.
     

    And finally another interesting frescoe. They were everywhere, seriously.

    Two reasons for posting this, but most importantly its letting you know I probably won`t post as much (if at all) for the next six days, as in about three hours I am catching the Eurostar to Paris.
    I`m very excited, as its the first time I`ve been away with the boyfriend - he`s there already and picking me up. The only thing is, by the time I get there it`ll be almost midnight.
     
    Basically, au revoir TDN :)

    From the outset, that post sounded a little bit homophobic. Not the cutting him out of your life part, but the "he should have stopped there" part. You might not like my opinion - but if he is your best friend, surely you`re the one person in the world he could tell such a thing to. Its not something you can easily tell your parents, and if he told anyone else you may have eventually found out.
    Being homosexual isn`t anyone`s choice, and if he was such a great friend to you - I really think you should just overlook all that part and just be nice to him over it. Explain you`re not into that, but still be his friend.
    Look at it from his point of view; he`s possibly in love - had been rejected, whilst maybe finally spilling the most hidden secret in his life to the one person he trusts the most, and on top of it all he`s losing his best friend. No doubt he knew exactly what was at stake in telling you.
    Maybe, just maybe it hurts him that you`d do something like this to your friendship? You are the one cutting him off afterall.
