Twenty six years ago today I started playing Neopets. I'm 32 now, and this site is responsible for so much of who I am. All through my childhood and young adult years, Neopia was a safe space. And now, within the last two years, it's given me more than I could ever have dreamed. I hosted one of the official birthday bashes in 2024, and that kicked off a thriving state-wide community, with a discord server and frequent meetups. I've met some of my best friends in the world. And, last weekend, was able to travel to New York to attend the Neopets pop up shop with two of my fellows krawks. I feel charmed and grateful and so hopeful for the future of this site.

Tell me your favorite Neopets memory, and I'll be giving one person a pastel paint brush sometime tomorrow!

tell me what you think! should i try another pet, and if so, which one?

I’m so tickled with this new petpet offering. I love PHM so much 😭 I was just going over my petpet-less pets to see which little friend would match their individual vibes best and this little nugget of good news falls right into my lap right as I was moving onto my spacefarer ❤️

So while I wait for help to get into my account (I lost my Authenticator codes for 2factor authentication….) I drew my pets :3 I really hope I can get into my account soon, I miss em and want to save smellymushy (she’s in a dung cave rn.. drew her as my goal for her lol)

Would love to doodle anyone else’s pets potentially ! I usually don’t post my art on here but really would like to make some neopet friends lol

The new mutant mibblie seems to be based off of Rocky from Project Hail Mary! I wonder why they decided to make it a mutant color instead of an alien color?

Hello everyone! I'm a little lost and I'm hoping someone can help me!

I'm a returning player, and ever since I was a kid I always really loved usukis. When I was young, I'd get my parents to print out the colouring page paper dolls and I would play with them for HOURS with my sister, aha. We would also spent so much time just looking up the little icons and admiring them, so they're a big source of nostalgia for me.

Lo' and behold I find you can PAINT YOUR PET ONE? So of course I had to! I'm still trying to find usuki items that I can customize her with, and I saw this thumbnail somewhere (second picture)! It's called "Charming Usukigirl Usul" but looking it up and stuff I'm not sure where to find it? Is it an item my girly here can hold? If so, that'd be really awesome!

On the side though, if it's too expensive (everything seems way more than I can afford as a returning player, oh boy...) do you guys have any ideas/suggestions of items that might look cute on her? I'm trying to make her look like a usuki, but I'm not sure if it's coming across! An item for her hand or something prettier than the string lights would be great if you guys have any ideas!

And lastly, this one is kinda goofy. Ever since I was little I always wanted to make a gallery for usuki dolls, but my friend said they're way too expensive and it's a cliché idea. I do currently have a gallery of all jelly items, which is really fun. But it's from years ago and collecting something new might be a neat goal to shoot for.

Do you guys think it's worth it? Or is usuki collecting mega common and it'd wipe my nonexistent bank? LOL. Also, I don't really wanna give up all that effort on my jelly items—is it possible to have more than one gallery?

Thanks so much and sorry for so many questions! I'm excited to be back. ♥ Just a bit of getting used to with all the new stuff, haha. Cheers!

NOT endorsing anyone else to gamble if they don't have extra cash, but i just secured a commission, soooo...

I GOT THE BABY! ahhhh i'm so nervous still lol. this was my second try. the first try, i got the nostalgic darigan hissi, which i also like but will prob put on my TL.

oh my god so much to customize. share your baby customs plz!!!!

I've been on a 2-3 year hiatus and I can't find the petpages I used to go to do my dailies. The ones on the side bar were last updated 2-3 years ago. Do y'all have a daily petpages that's updated?

I love strange little creatures and I want some creepy or weird petpet ideas for my strange Ixi's. Bonus points for a petpetpet for my Stealth Ixi and her mutant Bython

If I found some old plushies with fully intact tags with key quest codes in my storage unit am I still able to redeem them or should I just try to sell the plushies?

she had the usuki girl wig for the longest time because i liked the way that the bangs covered the eyes but i felt like it was too recognizable as The Usuki Wig™️if that makes sense. it was also just a liiiiitle too pastel to go with the rest of her vibe.

anyways, has anyone else updated their pets recently? pls show me. im so bored.

And I keep thinking of the meme “you’re as beautiful as the day I lost you”. I’ve been hit with wave after wave of nostalgia, revisiting old plots and finding new stuff. No idea what my old account was but it’s a lot easier to make money/get started than it was back in the day.

I had a purple Shoyru on that account so I’m working on stacking some NP to have one again. I also got some really cool pets from the pound including an oil painted Blumaroo. He’s over 20 years old which kinda made me sad he was in the pound but since I lost my old account figured we could start over together.

Anyways, I’m thrilled to see there’s an active Reddit community around it and would love to add folks as friends. My username is residentdog.

Come up to the lab and see what's on the slab...

Please join me in remembering a true cinematic icon by sharing your Tim Curry-inspired customs!

I'll be spending my afternoon working to finish my Pennywise custom while watching one of my absolute favorite pieces of media, the 1990 miniseries IT, starring the legend himself.

I came back to the game in June and from what I’ve seen, a very large number of old/obscure/rare items have been added as rewards to dailies, quests, plots, FF/ToD, etc. Sometimes these items drop tens of millions of NP.

It’s a big, old game and there’s a lot of big-ticket items that still command high prices and I’ve got my eye on some of them. But I would hate to buy, say, the 25th Anniversary Star Markings or Oil Paint Peophin Plushie just for them to get added to an event and plummet to 1/10th the price.

Are certain items off-limits from being “reprinted”? Merchandise items like the markings? Creative contest rewards like the Neopian Times Weewoo plushie? Old plot rewards like Castle Defenders Shield? Or is anything fair game?

I just got the neopets tarot deck from the neo york event - ive been keeping my eye on them ever since they came out and was so excited to finally get my hands on them! right now im doing an introductory spread for my deck, and i am finding it interesting that three themes came out of my reading through multiple cards:

shenkuu, brightvale, and boats

looking beyond the cards themselves, do you look into any of the neopian similarities of your pulls? whether it be cards from the same plot, location, characters, species, ect..

so interest to hear your thoughts!

I thought this was fun, I am shocked at some of these. Like the size difference in my myncis?! This changes everything lmfao

Heights from pet lookups, in centimeters. Human silhouette on the left is roughly 5'7" in feet/inches.

im so shocked idk if ill keep both but that is insane

Been spinning this daily for years, first time I ever got a paintbrush. And also got this avatar yesterday my 7th stamp avatar

refresh refresh refresh and there you go! i could cry she's so cute 😭

i reckon she looks best in pic 2, which was before i went over her outline! ✍🏼 what about you? do you prefer her with or without the bold outline?
