Css Codes Page | ||
We have put together a CSS Codes Page to help out with some of the new neo layout changes. The page is not complete, but we wanted to get up some of the things people use most often. We
will be constantly adding to the page, it is still missing lots of things ;) If you have a CSS code you would like us to add here please neomail faerieskater2.

Daily Puzzle + Background code | |||
Neopets now has a Daily Puzzle from which you can win items and neopoints. The answer to todays question (27th) is: carrots. Thank you 000xos! We also have a Daily Puzzle page up and running now, on which you can see the questions, answers and rewards. From now on the answers to the Daily Puzzle will be posted on the Daily Puzzle page, instead of the site front page. Todays answer (28th) is Half Price Day however. UPDATE: For those of you who want to fix your background, use one of these codes:

New Neopets Layout | ||
I'm sure everyone has noticed this by now, but TNT has drastically changed the layout of their site. This means LOADS of work for us! We will have to redo most our graphics: Userlookups, Pet Lookups, Guild Layouts and Shop & Gallery Layouts. We will also need to redo the Sidebar Themes page and the Userlookup Tricks page. Also, the clickable avatar links aren't working anymore because TNT messed with all the URLS. Finally, codes for shields, topbanners etc may also be out of place, we will need to review all of the graphic coding. It will take us a while to do all of this, so we hope you guys will understand that we can't have everything up and running again in a very short time. It's true, we were not prepared. But we are now training an army of Feepits to beat the evil Meepits before they can take over the world. |
| ||
Submit a Pet | ||
We have finally made a page where you can submit pets that work for avatars. We will still only be listing 3 pets per avatar, except for special things like
the grumpy boris and baby kougras, but if one of the ones we have listed ever gets frozen or changes and no longer works for the avatar, then we will use the pets that have
been submitted to replace them. You can submit pets by going to the Submit a Pet Page.
Please go submit some baby kougras or darigan pteris ;)

Working on Something, Errors May Occur + New Cursors | ||
We are working on something on the site. There may be some errors in the avatar descriptions, they will be fixed eventually, so please just bear with us :).
Meanwhile, why don't you check out our new Cursors. |

All users can try the BETA custom pets; Update on the April Fools Page | ||
It isnt just the premium users who can beta test the customizable pets now (for the first 2 days only premium users could use this feature, it wasnt an error on our part or a bug on neo's part, we just
havent had time to update yet :3). ANYONE can try it out now, just head over to your Quick Reference Page.
We also added some background history on the previous years April Fools Pranks. |

Premium Users Beta Test the New Customizable Pets; Lookups fixed | ||
Today it was made possible for the premium users to beta test the newest neopets option, which is customizable pets. We are currently working on a page with all the info for everyone, so that the non
premium users can see what is going on as well :) Until we get the page up and running here is a preview of 2 of the pets:
Most of the pets have been given a redraw, some more than others, and once we get the page up, we will have a preview of each species so you can see them all. The customizable pet option makes it so that you can actually dress your pet with clothes. We are not sure if this will be the only way to go, or if you are still able to keep the old version of your pet. This is still in beta testing and who knows what neo will actually end up doing with it ;). Update We have the page completed :) Please check out the Beta Testing Customizable Pets Page. The lookups have been fixed and the page has been put back up. If there are still any issues with any of the lookups then please neomail me, faerieskater2. |
| ||
Userlookup Errors | ||
The userlookups page just went *poof* earlier today and we had thought that we had fixed them and had them all back up and correct, but it turns out that they are all messed up. I will try to fix the code for all the lookups sometime by Thursday, more than likely I'll have time to fix them Wednesday night. Until then we do not suggest getting a lookup from the page cause most of them have errors in the coding. |

Neopets Word Scramble + Sneak Peeks | ||
