Quote of the Week


It's Tuesday today, and Tuesday is a good day for us: our master grants us an allotted break of 44 quacks today, rather than the usual 4.


The Forgotten Shore



It was evidently forgotten about and now that it has been discovered, the Shore is rewarding Neopians each and every day. But, as you go to the shore, nothing happens. Don't worry -- that's to be expected! You need to collect all 9 pieces of the Forgotten Shore Map to gain access to the beach before it will start rewarding you. Once all the pieces are obtained and redeemed, only then can you get your daily prize and your cash reward for completing the map!

Easiest Species to Zap



This article will show you the seven Neopets species that are the least expensive to morph. If you can learn to love one of these species, it will save you tons of neopoints in the long run. This short guide will also help you if you feel like one of your Neopets needs a change. It can be boring to keep your Neopets the same species and color forever. Maybe your Acara doesn't want to be an Acara anymore! Your Neopet will instantly (and painlessly) change species and color...

"If the Nickname Fits" by racoon188
Sydney had earned the nickname "Basher" at an early age. The Kyrii was always in a hurry, always trying to get somewhere. She had never particularly minded the epithet; its implication that she was tough could only help her reputation. As she had never had any trouble living up to this reputation, there was no harm done either. Her parents, however, thought the nickname distasteful. To be fair, Sydney's parents found most things about her distasteful...

"Lucky Coin" by princess_daisy186
"Kakimiha!" He winced and snapped the book shut on his paw. "You are supposed to be putting those books where they belong, not reading them. You do that on your own time," the Lenny librarian hissed, catching the Zafara in the act. Ms. Marsh wasn't young but not old either, but in Kakimiha's eyes she was ancient, Prehistoric, Dweller of the Tyrannian Dark Ages and definitely an old mean Lenny in a floral dress and thick spectacles...
