11th and 12th August
We have an all-new style Neopian Times
today. Ok, so it may have a few teeny-weeny errors, but its still in testing. If you
have any suggestions for how to make it better and easier to read, please do not hesitate
to email us :)
OOPS! - We forgot to make it available to all users. This has fixed now
so there wont be any more silly error messages.
There was a problem with the NeoPuzzle
scoring, so we had to wipe the hi-score tables for that game. We are sorry about this!
Petpets now appear less often and do more damage in the
Battledome.
10th August
The NEOPETS FRUIT MACHINE
has been launched! Everybody gets one free spin per day!!! Good luck. Also, we have fixed
the Tombola so that more people on the same IP address can play it.
Sorry about the delay, but Lenny Conundrum
is finally ready! The answer to last week's puzzle was 28 Red Coins.
New Colours are available for your
Neopets. Today we welcome the Brown Zafara and Mynci and the
Rainbow
Gelert!
We have released a new version of Neo Wardrobe.
Dress up the Chia, Aisha, Scorchio, Blumaroo, JubJub and Kacheek, and see if you can find the hidden animations (each
costume has one!) UPDATE - This wasn't working earlier, it is working now!
We have a new Mystery Pic today.
The answer to Wednesday's competition was 'Caption Competition 95'.

today. Witty and intelligent comments may win you 1,000 NP plus a rare item!
There are three new Hidden Tower artifacts, kindly donated by the Muffin Man!
The Muffin Man? Yes, the one who lives on Drury Lane. I think he may be behind the rash
of Battle Muffins appearing in the Battledome
lately.
We made a small change to the Zafara, now their eyes look much better :)
Some new pictures have been added to our
Art Gallery
Why not check out our new Site Spotlight, the

its taken ages, but they are finally here!!! UPDATE : The Online Store is back now after a
brief absence! Sorry about that!
Take us home with you!!
We have changed the Pet Homepages
so that if you type TEXT_AREA it becomes TEXTAREA so you can use that HTML tag now
(before it messed things up).
IMPORTANT UPDATE - Tonight's show at the
Tyrannian Concert Hall
has been cancelled due to a suprise appearance by the Jazz band Jazzmosis. Have you got
a ticket yet?
If you are especially lucky, you may see some Magical Blumaroo Plushies on sale in

Brighten up your computer with this cool
Blumaroo Bounce screensaver!
The Book Shop
has just got some great new Blumaroo books in.
IMPORTANT - You can also stop incoming Neofriend requests via your
Preferences section. Due to a weird database
thing, some people already have Neofriend requests blocked. We advise you to check your preferences now to make sure
they are correct!
If you see a shop that has offensive content, or has a scam in it, you can use our new Report feature
to tell us about it ASAP! A 'report shop' link will be at the top of every marketplace shop.
Two more artifacts have been added to the Hidden Tower. Now
you will realise the true power of Chives.
Shop Scams - Some people have been trying to trick others into buying items from their shops, or sending them items in return
for 'secrets' and contest entries. This is just a scam to get you to give them NP or items. There are no
secrets to making NP fast, anyone found to have a scam in their shop will have their shop deleted and account frozen.
Yippee! Its Blumaroo Day! Three abilities have just been added to the
Battledome - the
Blumaroo Bounce, Stare and Bump.
Uh oh! Some elements may not display correctly without Flash support. We're hard at work converting this into a more modern & secure format. Thank you for your patience.

the cool artwork, and read about mnupti the Lost Desert Blumaroo.

the hi-score table. Sorry about that.
6th August
IMPORTANT - The site will be down for a couple of hours tonight (most probably starting
around 9 to 10pm NST) for database upgrades. We do apologise about this, but it will hopefully
