Really sorry, didn't see your previous post. I'm not sure what that could be. Have you get any blockers on your internet? Are pictures everywhere on Neopets loading up? Are you on dial up or broadband coz if its dial up it might be that your not waiting long enough for the pictures to download but its prob not that coz you would have thought of that.
Have you contacted TNT to ask if they have any advice? Sorry I couldn't be any more help <hr>Also Phreakypants, this seems obvious but sometimes its the obvious that you forget to try first but have you tried right clicking your mouse over where the picture should be then clicking Show Picture option. Because sometimes my pictures didn't load up straightaway. Sorry if you've already tried that, but its worth a try.

I do have blockers, but I've got them adjusted so that I don't have any trouble loading anything on the site. All the images around the site show up without any trouble at all. I'm on dsl (sbc) so it's not a matter of waiting for images to not load long enough. And I don't have anything that indicated where an image should be. I've even checked the source and there's no image tag for any images other than the banners etc. which put me at a loss. Contacting tnt is the only thing I haven't tried yet.

Also, to the mod that edited. I was going to edit my initial post in thread 136, but I can't edit a post in a thread that's locked and no one can reply to anymore, now can I?

Does abyone else think it is unfair that (to get the Tomos avie) to be able to have only 1NP in one's account one must either deposit one's NP in the Neopian bank or else essentially spend them? We can move from the Till to our "pockets" but not back the other way (also unfair in my opinion). And as in real life, I will not keep my money in a bank (since even they occasionally fail); and Neopia unfortunately does not have a Credit Union. Now I wonder if this is also a British conspiracy.

News is up............ nothing to help, though.

Umm, no? The bank is there to put NP in to keep it safe. The Till is a place for your profits from your store until you pick them up. If you could put the money back in, it would just be a bank that doesn't have interest.

hmmm, what is so bad about the catacombs? those sections are a lot smaller than Anubis Toxicology, especially since the whole area is four parts...ehh, I still think Anubis Toxicology was evil, I had to go about 10 times mainly because the whole glitch thing I had at blowing the wall caused me to repeat the first crystal search and the beginning of the second...the worst distance one for me was going from the Annals of Insanity to Selected Royal Works back and forth for the last crystal, or the time I had to go to A.T. then to The Stacks Western archives and back to A.T. for the combined color...I was so glad I didn't have to repeat the whole thing...

...*talks to himself* If we did have to, that would have driven us insane...

can't you buy stuff from your shop anyway? just visit the store front and buy something from yourself, then you can take your money out of the till after you get the avie.

Alright guys... lets not tangent off on the avvie.T here's a seperate thread for these kinds of discussions.

A different Neo help site has a link to the Rumble in the Ruins game, but instead of Tomos and Nabile, it's Tomos and a red Zafara named Zina. Odd since there actually is a red zafara named Zina on neopets, but it looks like it's part of a perfectly normal account. Could this be his new partner in crime?

I don't see Tomos. I DO see Horace the Poor (who has been in a LOT of the comics.) I think he's a Desert Scarab. At least the game got his freckles right!

TNT have changed the game a couple of times and is now called Ruins Rampage.
Here is the URL:
http://www.neopets.com/games/desertruins.phtml

The game still isn't playable.

The game has Horace and Zina listed - Tomos is nowhere to be seen.

Ok, now it's horace, but back in the day I swear it was Tomos. I admit defeat and I'll go take a nap.

hey Scottnak I realized I didn't add the eastern archives to level 3 map and changed it. ^^;

also seem to have a problem. I got the first set right, but the second didn't show a location. I've tried to redo it and then find the combined color in the area I'm in but there isn't one. any ideas?

Yay! The cute Zafara Scarab (well, all Zafara's are cute) has a name... and a gender! Throughout the comic they kept her a little ambigous in the gender area although I guessed she was a girl. Great. I guess this means I'll have to collect Zina stuff on top of Kayla stuff. Oh well! All for the love of Zafaras.

Also, if the game is like the version we found earlier, it look really fun.

Edit: I think i may have drawn a sad conclusion from this game. They may be the last Scarabs . Nabile already quit to be a queen. What if Tomos quits to become a queen as well? Wait, I meant something else. Sorry. Razul is to flaming for me to think straight. With Nabile as a queen and Tomos as her eunic, Horace and Zina could be the last Scarabs. Now all we have to do is get rid of Horace...

Edit 2: The jokes in the last edit are just jokes and not to be taken seriously. I still want to get rid of Horace and elevate Zina.
