Renewed Rainbow Pool
Now that TNT has re-opened their rainbow pool to show all the converted pet colours. We decided it was time to expand our Rainbow Pool to keep it functional. What have we added? You can now see not only the converted pets, but also the unconverted pets (if tnt gave this option) and all the pets without clothes.

Altador Cup III Rank Calculator and Fonts
We finally managed to get our Rank Calculator to calculate correctly. We also revised the order of the data entry so that the order is the same as your games/stats page. Do keep in mind that for Slushie Slinger a score of 300+ points is needed before it counts and for Make Some Noise a score of 3000+ points is needed.
Our Altador Cup Fonts somehow got scrambled a bit, I suspect the Glitch Faerie for doing that. The fonts should now be unscrambled and be at their right place again.
Mjam! Scrambled eggs, but where is the toast!

Finally, a new avatar! To get it you must become a Rank 1 player in the Altador Cup. This can be achieved through 50 wins in Yooyuball, or a combination of Yooyuball, Slushie Slinger, and Make Some Noise (if you play Slushie Slinger and/or Make Some Noise, it's going to take more than 50 combined wins!).

Altador Cup Customisation Spotlight!
This is the moment a lot of people from the neoboards have been waiting for. Over the past weekend we have held an Altador Cup Customisation Spotlight on several neoboards. The goal of this spotlight was to find the best dressed supporter for each team. People were allowed to use normal customisation items, deluxe clothing from paint brushes and nc mall items. Anything to make their pet look like the best supporter ever. We've chosen the winners from many many entries! On the Altador Cup Customisation Spotlight page you can see the winners, which items they are wearing and other great suggestions to change your pet into the ultimate supporter!
TheRooligans, winner for team Roo Island! More team winners on the page!
We have also created a basic Altador Cup Customisation Overview page which shows only the items that are truly related to the Altador Cup. Thanks to people from charter and especially morainesedai7 for helping with that page.

Altador Cup Graphics
We've got new Shields and Lookups for every Altador Cup team this year! Enjoy!
Go Krawk Island!
Note: The new version of the Altador Cup Lookups already have the <style /> </style /> tags, so they are compatible with the filters as of now. No other graphic on this site has these style tags, so they are not compatible, as you all know. To make them compatible, simple edit the code so that "<style>" becomes "<style />" and change "</style>" to "</style />" As we've mentioned before, we will not be editing our codes until the work on the Neopets filters is complete, as we have far too many graphics to do so.

Altador Cup updates + Yooyu Adoptables + Reminder
Because the Altador Cup page was opened yesterday, we were able to update some of our Altador Cup Coverage pages. Among the updated pages are all the team pages. On the team page of Kiko Lake for example, you can read all about the team's mysterious disappearal from the cup. We've also created a Rules page. Even more pages are coming soon :)
Secondly, we have amazingly cute Yooyu Adoptables, which you can use to support your team. Below you can see an example of the Lost Desert Yooyu.
Finally, please stop neomailing us that some of our graphics do not work! We've already mentioned this on several news posts AND on every graphics page affected! We will not be updating the coding of our graphics until Neopets is done adjusting their filters!

Neopets Puzzle Adventure
Neopets is coming out with a new game called Neopets Puzzle Adventure, it is meant for Wii, Nintendo DS and PC. From IGN.com:
Set to launch on the three systems this holiday season, Neopets Puzzle Adventure takes puzzle solving skills to new levels with a unique Neopets spin. Based on the classic board game, "Reversi", Neopets Puzzle Adventure, is a robust and fully integrated Neopets experience as it includes 150 different quests across vast Neopian lands, a variety of the most popular customizable Neopets to choose from, and several fun mini-games to add depth and fun to the gameplay. As a bonus to Neopets fans, players will be able to earn codes throughout the game that connect back to the Neopets site by achieving certain goals throughout the DS, Wii or PC game. These unique codes will allow players to unlock exclusive items back in their virtual world on neopets.com.
Neopets Puzzle Adventure is the only multi-platform puzzle adventure console game based on the popular virtual, global community. For the Neopets fan, Neopets Puzzle Adventure is a must-have game with its intuitive "pick up and play" game play pattern and new never-before-seen areas in the Neopets universe to explore. Neopets Puzzle Adventure will incorporate several different mini-games, 150 petpets, as well as more than 300 items to equip various Neopet characters, recipes, treasures, awards and more.
The game board itself resembles a chess board, while the gameplay takes the principles of Reversi and Go, and adds new twists that take the adventure to unexpected levels. The goal is to turn all of the chips on the board to your Neopet's color. |
And some cool images to give you an idea of what's coming (there are more on the IGN website, click the link above):
Thank you tha_yanniick for this information!

Coding trouble update
It seems there is a workaround for the current lookup coding troubles. Basicly all you have to do is change (all) your <style> (or <style type="text/css">) to <style /> and </style> to </style />.
The coding will now be accepted. It also seems even though the style tags are 'broken' they will be correctly interpreted by FF, IE, Flock etc.
Use this fix at your own discretion.
