News is Up (July 27)

Wed Jul 27, 2005 9:50 pm

27th July
Today is randomly dedicated to a new paint brush colour - Camouflage, and why not :)

If you were wondering what the new paint brush looks like, here you go.



Kougras and Wockies are the first ever Neopets that can be turned into Camouflage versions.



As a reminder, Ruki Day is fast approaching, so you should send in your Ruki pictures, poems, spotlights and galleries.

Syprodrgon2's rather watery themed shop - The Underwater Empire has just won this week's Gallery Spotlight award.

Don't let your Neohome be left out of the camouflage themed festivities. There are six camouflage items on sale in the Furniture Shop.



The Faerie Peophin has been updated so it is a little more magical looking.

You have to be very tricky to get this new avatar...



Eint has just walked away with the latest Meridell Castle Spotlight award thanks to their level - Treasure Trove Tower.

There is even a Camouflaged Blog for your shop.

Give your desktop a new look with this Camouflaged Background!



This week's Petpet Spotlight award has been given to a Meepit called Maleficent.

There is a new Mystery Pic competition. The answer to the last one was the Peopatra. 703 people guessed the correct answer, earning 2,845 NP each.

Two Neopets are having lots of fun with their brand new looks in today's Caption Contest image.



Congratulations Reanim8d! A User Lookup of the Week trophy is whizzing your way.[quote=Neopets]


Gah. IT would have to be the wocky on the av.

I was so hoping it would be the kougra too! Hmm, wonders if I can draw something that even resembles a ruki :lol:

I know I can't. I've tried...we all know butterfly hornet will be in though XD.

Maybe I can come up with some sort of Ruki poem...

Scammers are selling Camouflage Potions to people because they say it will turn the pet Camouflage.

Wow... You sort of have to admit that's rather crafty... :roll:

Camouflage potion prices were always going to soar, they went up not long after the paint brush was first found. I guess it's scamming if you specifically tell people it will get you the avatar but a lot of people just anticipated the price would go up.

I'm really glad the avatar has the wocky on it rather than the kougra <3

*takes eyes out of head, rubs them, dusts them and pops them back in*
Ouch, that background's nuts.

It figures that scammers would be selling that potion though. Ugh, they just won't ever quit.

GAH what happened to my beautiful peophin?? :(

I don't really like the new look. It's almost like you can't tell where it begins and ends. I just think it's a terrible drawing.... :( Maybe if they hadn't posed it the way they did :(

/ends rant

At least the new camo paints don't look as horrible as I thought they might look.

What did it look like before the "redraw"?
I don't believe I've ever seen it ... o_O

Hmm...I might do a Ruki poem! :)

I do too. I had a faerie peophin a long time ago; Maybe I should have kept it! :) The only thing I don't like is how the hair in the front sticks out so much. Overuse of hair gel maybe?

The camoflage kougra battle poses look pretty awesome, though it overall isn't really a color for me.
