I know you only need to d/l the images and flash once, but with the amount of time I spend on Neopets, my caches files fill very quickly and need to be emptied every couple days. Otherwise my browser crashes.

I'm wondering if there's any way to have a low-bandwidth version, and a high-bandwidth version. The low-bandwidth version would just be HTML ads.. :)

That would be a VERY cool idea for me! :D

As it is now, cos my connection really is SO slow, I use Opera with flash turned off for nearly EVERYTHING on Neo (just those tiny banners on the side slow me down way too much :P) Then I use IE if I want to play flash games :)

Hey, are we supposed to still have the little side ads on here? I don't mind the banner ads, but both... it's a bit much.

Oh darn. I went to eat dinner and missed it. Well, KatchiNyu is my username if you have the time.

Uh oh, another problem.....Bilge Dice is squished due to the new toolbar. :P Everything is aligned left and squishified on the main dice page.

when you feed your pets, and then clikc on the 'close an refresh' button, it re-loads all the images, has this always been the case?

Sun Oct 17, 2004 10:42 pm

yes i also noticed the bilge dice problem. accually playing is ok but the back to krawk island is not centered.

Yeah, I do have the same prob as DiscordantNote.

Just showing the prob too. Netscape and Mozilla suffer the same.

BTW, are we gonna have to have two ad banners or does the smaller one go away on the final version?
I noticed that if you clcick the event sword, it takes you two the event,but it does say who gave the event. Guess that's what I get for not clicking the "show all" button.

EDIT: funky....when I look at my shop front it pulls the banner (big one and usershop one) over to the right by a few inches...though I did nothing to cause that to happen.

I'm probably too late, but I'd really really really like to be a beta tester... my sn is half_moon. Even though I'm probably too late. :(

Blah, I have been here all day then left to eat and I miss something cool. Oh well, if I am not too late, my sn is RinnaLoria

The haggle screen is royally messed up... it's all smooshed to the left side of the page and it's very difficult to scroll down that far and still get the item. >.<

yeah, actually, is there a way you can change the '**** gave you ****' events so if you click on the image related to that event it doesnt 'forget' to tell you who the item was from? i can see that getting really annoying for when we (inevitably) forget to press the show all button)

also, something about the clock. i know people commented about it standing out too much yesterday, and i've just had a close look, it is the same colour as the circles behing pet central, etc, but is there a way to get rid of the black box, and possibly make the background more circular, to tie it into the rest of the yellow bar more?

If i'm not too late....thirstykorbat.
