Neocolours

Is this a new colour?

It's gonna haunt my dreams. Yikes.

Congrats, that must have been exciting! Are you planning on completing the treasure map to be disappointed? Damn, I remember *looks around suspiciously* using a greasemonkey script to play the slots back in the day. Those were the days. You made more money making the volcano explode than getting the...

I think we're all like that :). It's a fun little weird bond we all share. I know I was major cringey as a teenager too. Yeah, the homogenous pet artwork and the sale to jumpstart which resulted in all the staff being layed off were too horrible things. My little dream that I posted in another threa...

Yeah, it's a pity that the community couldn't stay but... how can you when the thing you rallied around slowly and inexorably went to shit lol? e_e

I'm doing great! Ish! Who knows! I was so excited to see your username. Nothing really to report because... life is so big and expansive. I'm super stressed right now because of uni (yep... back at uni) and my unemployed partner and my leaky roof, but this is temporary, so it will pass. We've got a ...

I just get a bit lazy with the gift sending :). We're lucky in that if things keep going the way they have been we'll have no active cases this time next week and it will hopefully stay that way or near enough. I've actually started doing C25K to get some exercise on my working with home days (becau...

I'm doing great! Still sendin' you pogo gifts when I remember :D Apparently neopets is so low traffic now that they will unfreeze basically anyone for basically any reason, so it might be worth a try. I'm kind of considering dusting off the one account that somehow survived my email account breach (...

well at least this time they didn't steal the art?

that's honestly much more interesting than the colour itself!

oh my god. this is stunning!

did they hire a real artist? or are my expectations just that much lower?

Yeah it's kind of silly to paint themselves in a corner like that by saying "we will never do [blank]" I wish there was a way for neopets to innovate, but sadly Customisation was their big push to being relevant in the New Internet and it just didn't work for them at all. It's a crying sha...

Unfortunately, I don't think that would work with their colourfill only colours now :(. Sad, really. I just remembered that the Pteri, along with the Chomby, is a Tyrannian pet in that Tyrannia is its native home. Do they have a Tyrannian Chomby yet? I swear some 15+ years ago an editorial response ...

Tyrannian Pteri is a huge missed opportunity to go archaeopteryx .

Imagine if they did that: brought out an "unconvert PB" that let you unconvert LITERALLY EVERYTHING that had a converted form (you want a UC green mynci? sure.). That'd be so cool. I don't know what you'd do to not have the UC traders feel like they got ripped off though. Maybe have the PB...

That seems quite nice except for the fact that the RP community is no doubt on tumblr or whatever now. I wonder what could be done to save neopets? I wonder what actually killed it? The Great Conversion of c.2008 must have had something to do with it, but it was still popular for a while after that ...

I get them via topic reply notifications, thanks for the mail, I appreciate the stuff you said !

What I used to love doing was roleplaying/writing, which I'd still want to do in theory but I feel like the community doesn't exist anymore on Neopets?
