Re: Atlas of the Ancients

Wow, I haven't logged onto neopets in weeks and on a whim I check my pets (which are starving) look at the news and... PLOT! Click the map... woo! Do a few searches, check the source code for clues, click around a little bit... nothing, nothing... then my next reaction is... check PPT for plot stuff ...

Re: New Editorial

There were also a lot of articles inmagazines & newspapers about neopets that year.

Funny... the domain name "ihateneopets.com" is owned by neopets.

Re: Reuters: Neopets Team becoming Neostudios?

I guess because "The Neopets Team" sounds kind of small and of a limited scope.
"Neostudios" sounds bigger and more creative. "studio" makes you think of artists. It makes me think of ILM or movie FX studios, which do a lot of work with 3D and new technology.

They ought to keep the TNT name for ...

Re: Reuters: Neopets Team becoming Neostudios?

If I had to guess, I would bet that there will be little to no attention to the older parts of the site, including fixing problems with items, old game glitches, or updating art on the older games, including the "multiplayer" games that tend to run themselves like plushie tycoon, the kacheekers ...

Re: Somebody give this a title?

Well... he looks like an edwardian gentleman - I guess because of the dark coat and high collar. And because of the slight lean, he appears to be walking toward the viewer, or leanign in toward the viewer. The background is so grainy and indistinguishable, it makes me think he is somewhere dark ...

Re: The almighty meteor on Kreludor!

Why is the mad scientist the only grundo on kreludor wearing a space helmet?

I suppose that's why he's mad. At least he's not an angry orange yurble.

Re: Unreleased Goodies

They must have gotten a lot of feedback from the little zork/colossol cave homages that were in the last couple plots. It's kind of funny because you have one gorup of people saying "OMG it's not 3D" and another group of people saying "OMG you can't type XYZZY!"

Closet?

I will feel really stupid if I missed this in another thread.

I went to use quick stock and noticed an option called "Closet".
Any ideas what that is?

I recall seeing a very long time ago that therer would eventually be a charge for using the SDB, maybe they're going to implement that, and ...

Kess-
It's just in testing now, so they just want to be sure this works before they start messing with clothing.

Yeah, sorry. I got a little ahead of myself.

I was just playing with the "controls" noticed the list of catagories they have available.

Actually - I have yet to see any clothing that is not part of another paint brush set yet, so maybe clothing from uni's clothing boutique isn't going to be all that useful in any case.

I kjnow a lot of these are advent calendar items, so they should be cheap. The folks who write the item descriptions seem to get a bit sillier with the advent calendar items.

It's significant if you collect lenny items or potions, which I do.

My point was that they didn't use the updated potion template on the brand new potions. They screwed up, or just didn't realize it.

Odd, that they used the OLD Lenny Morphing Potion templates for the three new morphing potions. The newer images have the updated beak, like so:
