Katsuokai

The opportunity to cosplay as Hanso the great Ixi Thief at Neopia Central's Comic-Con was something this Pirate Grundo couldn't pass up. He has always admired Hanso's ability to steal powerful magical artifacts with ease and hoped that one day he would be such a great pirate as Hanso's a talented thief. Also, finally being able to play the new TCG Magic: The Faerie's Curse instead of NeoPoker with the other pirates was irresistible for him... .

Yeah, the tinsel is just awful, but since it's part of the same item you just can't remove it. :( The background you want is still obtainable in the NC Mall and a similar star and moon shower is also available in the NC Mall... and when it comes to the retired items maybe you could trade for them in this thread here at TDNF: NC Trading Advertisements. I tried to recreate that charming look of hers, but it just doesn't seem possible. I would have tried putting on her a potato sack, but it would have covered her entire body. :(



Hope you find your JubJub a nice outfit anyway; in the future maybe TNT decide to create more fitting items so you can recreate her look. ;)

Hm... this was hard to customize. For her star I think you could use the Elegant JubJub Tiara... or get the Christmas JubJub Star Decoration... or even get the Royal Girl JubJub Crown, although you would have to paint her to get the last two items, so the tiara is probably the best choice. For the shoes I couldn't really find something purple enough from the neopoint wearables, so if you have some neocash to spend maybe you could get the Basic Purple Gloves. If you really only want to spend neopoints maybe you could combine Fyoras Arm Wraps together with the Cracked Negg Slippers. For the rest of the customization it would be good if you customized her to look like in some of the episodes, like From Bad to Worse or Gotcha! I went with a From Bad to Worse customization, that's why she have the wings and them ''sexy'' lips! hahaha.... . I wanted to add glowing green eyes, but it wasn't possible since it removed the lips... . The contacts I considered adding were all NC contacts... the Premium Collectible: Glowing Contacts, the MME16-S4c: Glowing Green Contacts and the Poisonous Purple and Green Contacts. If you want to add a star somewhere the Magical Wand of Magicalness could be a better option than the Neovian Potion.

Well, hope you like it and have fun customizing! ;D

P.S. Come to think about it, maybe the Wings of Darkness would be a better choice (even though they're a NC wearable) than the Deluxe Dark Faerie Wings, since they kinda look more lumpy... or at least bubbly. Just felt the need to add that. lol

Thanks Kaotsuokai!I'll be sure to add those items(except for the nc item,I rarely use nc and never buy it)!

Happy you liked my suggestions! ;D She'll be looking great even without the Huntress dress.

It's always nice to get one's dream pets, so congratulations on achieving it. ;) Both names are great, so you'll have a cool customized pet with either of them, although I still hope Illsaeth wins. :P

I prefer the name Illsaeth, sounds more fitting for a huntress and with your explanation of what the name means I like it even more! :D The customization is also good, I like it, so I just added a few details. ;)



The Forest Huntress Dress is a retired neocash item, so you would have to trade for it if you want the dress. The other two items are both neopoint wearables. The Jungle Foliage Face Paint cost ca 76000 np and the Simple Green head Amulet cost ca 30000 np.

Cross paint all of my pets multiple times!!! Crazy, I know, but you asked what our ultimate goal is and that's mine. I still have a completed FFQ to use, but have yet to decide on which pet to use it on. lol x''D I'm still very far from reaching my goal; I have only painted all of my main account's pets Magma, but since I want all the wearables that comes with some paint brushes I'll have to repaint them all eventually. ...I do wonder if I ever will achieve my goal? /haha

Here's my entry, click on it to see it animated on DTI:



Neopians from all times have always wondered how it comes that Pteris are full-fledged independent beings right after they crack open their eggs. Turns out the Pteris have a secret: unlike other Neopets, they stay inside their eggs until they become mature teenagers. They crack open small openings in their shells in order to communicate with the outside world and live in their Secret Tree House Kingdom, where they can learn and grow without fears of being eaten by hungry Neopians or becoming part of Tyrannia's Giant Omelette. That's what gives these small beings their advantage in the savage world of Neopia.

You're NOT a wannabe gamer! Just ignore peoples silly opinions and have fun, enjoy your passion and don't you ever stop playing because of the opinions of some mean persons. I sometimes feel like I'm a wannabe gamer/nerd/otaku, just because I haven't watched, read and played nearly as much as other persons my age (I'm turning 22 in August). No one has said that I'm a wannabe (yet), but that maybe has to do with the fact that I have a quite limited social life... . I don't own 140 games, I had to sell nearly all the games I owned (and I lost some). I only have left an old Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time cartridge, that I haven't even played through to the end yet, but just because other stuff in life got in my way I will not stop considering myself a nerd. I'm still a huge fan of all this stuff, even though I haven't been able to dedicate more time (and money) to it. So.... yeah, ignore the jerks that tell you that you're a wannabe gamer and have fun!!! Oh and please, never make anyone a sandwich instead of playing video games. Sexist jerks aren't worth your time.

There are some pretty nice customizations this round! May the best ones win. ;)

Here's my customization (click on the image to see it animated):



The Guardian of the Eternal Sunlight has been captured by the forces of the Eternal Moonlight. Desperate and deprived of her powers, now the only hope she has left is that a brave Neopian dares to enter the Darkest Forest to save her and bring back the Light to Neopia! Will a hero rise or is Neopia doomed to become a world where only darkness reigns freely?

Wow. Congratulations. You must be so proud to have your hard work pay off! That's awesome!

Thank you! I really am proud about it. ;) When I noticed the picture of Ruarius' contest entry in the news I was like: Wow! I'm so happy right now! :D /haha This is actually my first great achievement on Neopets, so yay for me! :P

Hm, yeah, the Draik seems a bit too bold painted Magma. Once I get a Draik I'll probably paint him Wraith... or Stealthy... or maybe even Water. I like those colours, but hey! if you want to paint your Draik Cloud go ahead and do so! :P The Draik will be all yours so no one should hinder you from doing so. ;)

I made two customs, one with NC items and one with NP items only... but it turns out Draik specific clothing items are crazy expensive (I'll must save up a lot of neopoints if I ever want to buy those items once I'll get a Draik... ). D: So... I made a third customization with cheaper multiple species items instead... and some NC items. Hope you like them and have fun customizing! :)



I think it could also look nice with the Brilliant Altador Sun Sandals or the Jewelled Gypsy Sandals, but since the Winged Altadorian Sandals are still available in the NC Mall I chose those instead. ;)

Also, here's the other two other outfits I made (the first one relies heavily on neocash items):



(The previews looks weird, click on the images to see them animated on DTI.)

Kasuokai- I have no idea what you are talking about. What exactly did I decide against?

 

Yes, multiple votes are allowed. I will add this in the first post.

 

I have on the main Customization thread, that you can't vote for yourself as one of the rules. I will add that to this one as well.

 

The "None" option was explained in the first post of the thread.

Oops, nope I meant that I, myself decided to not post a comment about it, but that I regret that I did not comment on it earlier since it could have avoided the confusion.

 

If you have multiple browsers on your computer you can even use a different browser to keep you from getting confused. I never log into my sides in Chrome, because that is the browser I prefer and so I use it for my main.

I have multiple browsers, so sometimes I login to my side accounts with Firefox instead of Chrome, sometimes I open an Incognito window and sometimes I logout and then login to another account. lol The third option is probably the best way to avoid accidents from happening. That and the different site theme helps a lot in case you're tired and/or distracted. /haha

 

Same here! Or, just use the Incognito mode on Chrome for my sides if I'm too lazy to open up another browser.

 

I think the general rule for sides is: If the activity gives you Neopoints, don't do it. I think they let random events slide, but doing dailies is a huge no-no! If you need funds for your side account, all of it has to come from your main account.

 

Have fun, and good luck with the side account! :)

^This. You're allowed to keep the things and/or neopoints you get from Random Events. You can also complete Faerie Quests as long as the funding comes from your main account.

...like I believe you can collect monthly freebies on your sides.

Nope. You cannot collect monthly freebies on your sides, you can only collect some neocash gifts on special occasions, like those free 150NC we got from the change to JumpStart. Regarding games: do not play them. TNT understands that you might forget about it once or twice, so just be sure to not do the same daily on your main account. To help you remember which account you're using change the Site Theme you're using so it'll easier for you to notice that you're on your side account instead of your main account. ;)

Happy you like them! :D Too bad the Blushing Birch Tree is so pricey; I want that item too but I'll have to prioritize until I get more neopoints. :P

Will be fun to see the final customization once you get the necessary items. You have many interesting ideas to choose from. ;)

Ohhh! that makes so much more sense. Thanks for clearing things up Katsuokai. :)

No problem, cartoon_dreamer. I'm glad I was able to clear it up. ;)

I've had a question that I've been kind of afraid of asking because I feel like the information is located somewhere but I just can't find it :X

 

so what is the difference between each stage of trophy? is it levels achieved? and if so what are the exact levels to rank up to a different trophy? o.o again this is my first AC so I'm really behind on everything lol

 

 

I was also wondering about the darigan yooyu's so thanks for the info! :)

Yes, they change depending on which rank you achieved as a player. You can check out last years trophies and which rank was needed to upgrade your trophy here: http://thedailyneopets.com/altador-cup/prizes-ac8/.

Glad the info about the Darigan Yooyu's helped. ;)

That Sabs has voted 8 times is not a glitch. I was about to comment earlier on the fact that the change of voting system wasn't stated clearly enough this round and that she should edit the first post, but I decided to not post a comment about it since I saw that some users that voted early on seemed to understand it anyway. Now I regret my decision, sigh... . The voting system works like this:

1. You can't vote for yourself.

2. You can vote for multiple entries, that's why this poll allows it.

3. You don't have to vote for next round's theme, but if you do that'll help Sabs decide on future themes.

Hope this clears it up. Sabs probably gonna edit the first post as soon as she's aware of the confusion the change of voting system has caused. ;)

1. I always send in 5 goals in SoSd, so I doesn't know why we shouldn't do that all of the sudden.

2. The movement of Darigan Yooyus are random, but they do not behave like Mutant Yooyus. It's just so that once you shoot you'll never know for sure in which angle it'll fly away. Check out The Daily Neopets Yooyuball Guide if you want to read about how every type of Yooyu behave.

Hope this helps. ;) I'm also curious to know what's up with the 5 scores thing in SoSd.

Yes, there are rules you must follow. Read this: http://www.sunnyneo.com/sideaccounts.php.

I hope you'll enjoy your new account! ;)

Congratulations ShelleyJoy! :D I really want to paint my Uni Woodland, but I still have to save up for a paintbrush. :P

Here's some customizations I made, all with neopoint items only, but I didn't price check them. Hope you like them!



...I didn't remember until now that I could have made the customizations on Jellyneo's Wardrobe so you don't have to check out the price of every item yourself... oh well, if you like something I hope it isn't all too expensive. :P

haha you're welcome :) glad you got a chance to see your pet in the spotlight! that's exciting :D

Indeed it was! I saved your screenshot and also took one myself. These are the Neopets memories you just have to immortalize. :P

Congratulations! :D Your Ruki looks so cool, especially with the background. It makes him look like some sort of explorer in a scary jungle. :O

 

Best wishes with future customisations!

Tank you! :D Exactly, he really does look like an explorer in a scary jungle with that particular background. I thought the items flowed so well together, especially with the ghoul following him closely and the reflection of the torch in his eyes achieved with the Sparkler Contacts he's now using. This is actually the only one of my currently fully customized pets that I'm entirely satisfied with, the others are quite temporarily and/or customizations I need to continue working on. Good thing I have DTI and Jellyneo's Wardrobe to help me plan my future outfits. ;)

...Oooh! I didn't know they were displaying it there too! Just hurried over to Neopets to see it with my own eyes. :P /haha Neat. :D Thanks for taking that screenshot ShelleyJoy! :thumbsup:

I always have my TV on and sometimes I turn off the sound of the TV and put on some music, mostly my favourite music on youtube. :) Right now I'm listening to Two Steps From Hell; epic music to make a tedious task more bearable. lol

Woot! Congrats on winning the Gold trophy! :D I hope to win one someday! The voting process is so tedious. lol

 

Your entry for the FFC is great! :) It represented everything with the story.

Thanks! :D The contest might be difficult to win, but I'm sure you can win it with your customizing skills! ;)

/haha Yeah I thought the story of the Undead Commander and the decapitated faerie was funny and fitted well with the theme. It also reminded me a bit of my Undead Mage in World of Warcraft who walks around with a scythe. xP

Your entry to the FCC is beautiful! The colours flow so nice together. :3 The wig you used is actually one of my favourites; too bad I don't own one. :( If I start with neocash trading I must get one!
