Edit: It looks like someone gave the DFM Pteri an invitation after all, since the site is working again!
Well would you believe it? Today is SunnyNeo's 5th Birthday! Half a decade ago, the SunnyNeo that we know and love today was officially launched to the Neopian public. You can find out how SunnyNeo came to be on our history page. Ever since we have been providing visitors with helpful guides and goodies. And the goodies don't end there either, we have lots in store for you to look at today alone, so let the celebrations begin!
For all of you Altador Cup fans we have a special off-season report waiting for you to read! If you want to find out the Altador Cup celebrities' favourite venues for a party in Neopia, this is the article for you!
For Customisation enthusiasts we have something special as well! If you'd like to dress up for party, why not do it now? To give you some ideas we've dedicated a page with party customisation suggestions for all kinds of different celebrations!
In other news, SunnyNeo's Graphics Department was super excited to discover that a batch of Birthday Themed Graphics needed creating in order to get the party going. The team set off with their favourite crafting tools in hand and began creating a bunch of Birthday Themed Goodies for you to indulge in. Enjoy!
No party is complete without balloons floating all around the place, brightening up the mood of guests. To help those party planners out there, we have made a new Party Themed shop + gallery layouts to help prepare for any upcoming parties!
Or why not jazz up one of your layouts with our Birthday Themed Background, Fake Avatars, Shields and Art Adoptables?
We all love to hear your compliments, it's like the icing on the cake of a hard day's work :D. The Testimonials page is dedicated to some of the kind words we receive about SunnyNeo. After five years, that's a lot of friendly feedback.
You may even want to join the SunnyNeo staff! Blow out the birthday candle, make a wish, and check out our Apply for Staff page for any open vacancies.
A big thanks goes to itself for being entertaining all of this time (not to mention inspiring many to learn HTML and CSS to make their Neopets pages look cooler!) and for the users who band together to work together on Neopian plots etc. The list goes on! SunnyNeo is proud to have been (and still be) here to offer a huge array of help, art and more to the community. There will be many years of awesomeness to come from both!
Three cheers for SunnyNeo! Three cheers for Neopets! Keep on rocking!
Can I open it now, please?
TNT has released a new Usukicon Goodie Bag for Y13. Our NP Customisation page will be updated if it contains any new wearables. This can be obtained from the Toy Shop in Neopia Central Bazaar.

We heard rumours that Dr. Sloth was stranded on Mystery Island once. They say he didn't realize the island was inhabited and spent many weeks talking to a Red Bouncy Ball he named Bob. The latest stamp in the Grundo Reeducation Center auction could be connected to this very rumour, or it could all just be a coincidence... In which case, the story we just told you makes no sense whatsoever and should probably be ignored. Yay Island Grarrls! |
In the NC Mall, Blumaroll is also due to finish on the 21st and it will be the last chance to buy and use the Blumaroll dice packs.
I'm #1!
Check out our Blumaroll guide to see more about the game!
TNT also announced on the New Features that there are some new smilies to use on the Neoboards!

Also, a Christmas Yooyu has been found. Now all Yooyus that have been released so far, have been special prizes for the Altador Cup Prize shop that could not be painted. So this Christmas Yooyu will possibly be a special prize as well. Perhaps for the Advent Calendar?

We've updated our Site Themes page with images and previews.
Can you help me, shop keeper?
MAINTENANCE NOTICE - We have been informed that a few rogue tentacles have made their way to our servers. Unfortunately, due to this issue, we will have to schedule some maintenance work tonight. The servers may be down anytime between 9 PM to 2 AM NST, so if this happens, just hold on and hope that we don't get carried away in pieces! (P.S. We don't know why we have servers in the ocean, either.) |
So don't panic if you can't access Neopets around 9 PM to 2 AM NST :)
These things are everywhere!
If you get bored during that time, you can always have fun with our Quizzes here at SunnyNeo!
