I read somewhere that if you zoom your screen wayyyyy out, eventually you'll be able to see an exit X in the corner. I didn't have the issue myself, so I can't confirm for sure that it works. But I hope this helps!

Painted Without The Brush: dress in the theme of a particular paintbrush (e.g., Elderly, Valentine's, Halloween) but using none of the items from the actual paintbrush.

Wow. A Neopets event launched with bugs? What a shocking turn of events!

I like the Relic Lupe much better without the claws. I think what bugs me about them is it looks like they just drew one claw and then copied and pasted it onto all the toes.

Yep, you were missing the obvious three dots in the right corner of your post. I merged them for you.

My only options under those three dots are "Report" and "Share", same as @GillyTook. Thank you for merging them for me!!!

I would be really interested to know what the average Neopets user's age is. I'm guessing it's mostly adults. (But then again, maybe that's just who I associate with.) Regardless, this decision makes approximately zero sense; the rules that were already in place about what you could and couldn't discuss on the boards seemed sufficient to me to keep things from getting "too" "real-life".

I was so excited that TNT has started to be more openly inclusive and mindful of LGBTQ+ people and disabled people. But this feels like a HUGE step backward.

And how is it more "child friendly" to punish people for talking about absolutely anything non-NP-related? I feel like a rule like that is harder for kids to follow than adults.

I cannot for the life of me figure out how to edit my previous comment, so please forgive the double comment. Am I missing something obvious?

But I wanted to add this screenshot I JUST took.

The white highlight is how it's normally displayed; I added the red line for emphasis. So... what IS the truth?

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!

Oooh, inspired by Nerds Rope, perhaps? I love the sprinkles of candy on the ground around the feet.

Oooooh, the Oil Paint is gorgeous!!! And I love the choice to put that outfit on the shadow Uni. SO pretty.

I like the look of the Silver Xweetok but it also looks ENTIRELY different from every other silver pet, which bugs me. It shouldn't because I don't have nor want a Xweetok, let alone a silver one, but like... I like consistency.

OMG, I love the Plushie color on this pet! I've never yearned to have a Vandagyre before, but this makes me want one!!!

I'm not really a Kyrii fan but this color AND outfit are both really well done! Nice work, TNT!

Those boot are killing me - in the fun way. That Custard color, though... it's killing me in the bad way. Why does it have that... sickly greenish tinge to it? I just went and looked at all the other Custard pets, and it's the only one that's a different shade. Why?!

I feel like they should've narrowed down the color palette for the Mosaic Kiko. There are too many colors, too much going on, and the eyes and mouth get lost. I don't totally hate it, but I'm not rushing out to get one.

I thought for SURE Meridell would rank 1st! I wonder what happened at the end?

I'm not super invested in the AC but from what I've read on the boards... (and granted I have no idea how accurate any of this is, but...) it sounds like TNT tried to mitigate the scores of cheaters by making their scores not count toward their team scores, and a lot of legitimate players also got likewise "shadowbanned" in the process?

Either way, I don't think ANYONE expected the result we got.

I love the colors in the pastel, but is it just me or are the lines not very... clean? Like, the outline looks pixely.

I think it looks like cheese rather than a sponge xD

My first thought was definitely cheese. In fact, before I scrolled down in the news, I was like "What color is this supposed to be? Do we have a Cheese Paint Brush Now?" And now I'm hungry.

Honestly, I like both versions, and I think the original design is far cuter, but the redesign is more in line with what I'd expect from TNT. Its eyes are much less... Pokemon.

Did y'all see today's news? Apparently they updated the art. The response has been interesting to say the least.

Agreed, its missing its cute chomby eyes to make it more recognizable   The downward (???) spikes on its side also are an... interesting artistic interpretation. 

However, I know their art team are Ukrainian and are uprooted right now so I'll cut the new guys some slack. 

The Laura Dern clothing set tho?

I had no idea they were Ukrainian! Thanks for sharing that.

And I figured out why the eyes look weird to me: they look like Pokemon eyes!

I really like the Tyrannian Chomby in theory. But in execution... I wish it looked more like a Chomby, if that makes any sense.

I'll be honest, I think the Tyrannian Buzz is ugly as heckers, but I mean... ugly in a way that's very well done. It would be perfect for someone going for that aesthetic and it's much better art than we've gotten on some of the "prettier" colors.

OMG! I love this new color. I achieved all my pet goals a year or two ago, and I haven't really been super excited about any of the new pet colors since. But I have GOT to get me one of these.

Welcome to the forum! I purchased a crop top from their Pride collection this summer and while I wasn't disappointed, I did expect a higher quality. It wasn't as bad as yours, though; based on my purchase, I'd buy again. I'm sorry you had an unpleasant experience for your money.

To me, the new Marble looks like if they took a Checkered Nimmo and then smudged it really aggressively. I don't hate it, but like... meh?
