Adoption forum questions

Yeah, I can't do any code which involves converting text to an id and so on - this means I can't do a [neopet species= colour=][/neopet] tag, since it's no longer just a case of subbing a colour and species into a URL. It has to be something where the text you enter can be used exactly as is.

Thank you, RD! It's much appreciated

It occurred to me that it would be possible to do a petimage tag- using the http://pets.neopets.com/cpn/PETNAME/1/2.png url format (note the "cpn" as opposed to "cp" in the usual urls). It always resolves to the version with the jumble of 8 letters and numbers which is common to all pets of that species and colour wearing the same clothes.

I don't know if there would be any demand for it, however, and we don't want an excess of custom tags which clutter the form up and don't get used.

I think, though, that those are the images which don't update properly unless you go to Customisation - since a lot of pets for adoption are lab pets, I'm not sure that the images which get displayed will actually be accurate.
