25th.May.2013 - Adding a feature of the link to the most recent pet day (as well as most updated colour, when I remember) mostly to help myself sort through what adoptables need updating. Also added a lupe adoptable that is coming out of retirement, as well as a new Apple adoptable in the 'other' section.
AND putting up the amount of colours the pet can be changed to for my own use (but feel free to use it XD I got sick of counting the colours every time I had to update the adoptables)

4.May.2013 - Was just mailed to be notified that the Adoptables Phonebook has been mentioned as a reputable adoptables site in an article in the Neopian Times! Here is the article and Bitter is the writer! It outlines in great detail the uses of adoptables and helps someone new to them understand the point of adopts far better than I'd be able to describe!
As far as an update goes, sorry everyone! Life has been getting in the way. I need to find a big enough box to stick it inside and hide from myself.

13.April.2013 - As usual, small edits have been done between now and the last update. I'm adding a new affiliate.

This user has taken on the task of doing all colours and species of neopets, and I admire such dedication. If you don't find what you're looking for, check this person out, as well as the others who have done such a task.

11.Mar.2013 - Have been updating here and there. But I had to say, TRANSPARENT UNI ADOPTIE AVAILABLE OMG!

14.Jan.2013 - I'M SO SORRY IE USERS! I had NO idea that some boarders were where they shouldn't be! I'm going through them now.

13.Jan.2013 - Complete sets added:
Acara, Ixi, Lupe and Uni, as well as quite a few almost finished sets. But MORE and MORE has been added to the custom only section.

12.Jan.2013 - Listed a finished krawk set, and some more 'other' adoptables

7.Jan.2013 - I've finally finished with a design I'm happy with. I hope you all like it too! If you have suggestions or questions/complaints, Neomail me!

6.Jan.2013 - I have begun gutting the petpage to make it easier to use and more appealing. Don't fret, I'm not removing any adoptables. Just useless content I've written.

Welcome to 2013 readers! My aim for this year:
-Add another branch to the adoptables phonebook dedicated to neopians who are only making paint colours upon request.
-Make a final layout for the phonebook that is not this sort of eyesore! Probably more of a scroll sideways box for the adoptables rather than bunched together in a small one.
-Enter the phonebook (only when I think it's ready) into the Site Spotlight competition! -ultimate goal-
-Finish another set of adoptables (as well as the kacheeks).

So far this turnover of the 2012-2013 year I've finished a set of peophin adoptables, and a set of gnorbu adoptables. They can be found here, but receive no special treatment nor being listed as my set.

3.Dec.2012 - Have a pinched nerve, used small amount of energy to go through to Bori sorting out broken links/borders around complete sets.
This layout isn't staying, due to lack of interest in it.

16.Oct.2012 - There will be a banner at the top of the petpage, with a description and such. I just didn't have time tonight. Shuffling around the petpage, drew a book to make it more accurate with the name, and constantly adding new adoptables. One set featured is a complete set of chombies!

16.Sept.2012 - The petpage has been swept. The next sweep will be in a few months. There is also an updated layout coming as soon as Sealla's design is finished.

12.Sept.2012 - I've added an affiliate. Go check her out =3 She's further down the petpage.

6.Sept.2012 - From now on I will only be listing the full or nearly full sets of adoptables. Meaning if the set is half finished and the user hasn't been online in ages, I'll just remove the adoptable. If the person hasn't been around for 10 or more days, they have a reprieve. If the user is online regularly/under one day, I'll have neomailed them. If you see half finished sets I'm either waiting for the user to reply to my neomail, the species has no other adoptables to choose from, or the user has a reprieve until the next sorting.

If you want to be listed, you'll need to have at least the most of the set done and continuing to work on finishing it. The reason I want this petpage to be successful is because everyone should have access to an adoptable for their pet. Even mutants and maraquans. It's not fair on the people who would like to showcase your art but can only find half finished sets.

Opearl's petpage half (krawk-zafara) has been sorted through.

21.Aug.2012 - I've actually done a sort between dates, but I haven't listed it XD Doing yet another sweep of dead links and adding new ones, as well as checking up on how unfinished collections are going.

21.Nov.2011 - Swept through this page of dead links and added a few others. And I got married =3

7.Mar.2011 - I'd like to make it a requirement, but I won't, but I'd really REALLY appreciate it if you link back if you've asked to be listed here. It's not hard, and it helps me help you =3.
Added plushie, purple, rainbow and red kacheek to my own set of adoptables.
Also removed the dead links, but if you see any please neomail Sealla.

2.Mar.2011 - Added some more of my own kacheek adoptables: Glowing, Green, Gray, Halloween, Island and omigodJellyandMagmaAreSOOObad so far.

27.Feb.2011 - The webpage has officially been sliced into 3. You'll find the remainder of the sites above this update. Acara to Kougra adoptables will remain here, Krawk to Zafara adoptables have moved to Opearl's petpage, and Makeables, Custom adoptables and Other adoptables have moved to Chezane's petpage.

26.Feb.2011 - After taking in a few suggestions, I'll be changing this petpage around a little bit. Mostly It's just changing the petpage into 3, so that it saves on your download limitations.
For example, Sealla will keep species A-K, and the L-Z lot will go to another petpage, as well as Makeables and Customs will be shifted to Here, which is currently still under construction. So if you've asked me to add your customs only adoptables, and wondering why I've said I have added them, but they're not here, it's because they're going onto the new page =3

20.Feb.2011 - So I'll be going through my collection, and for every picture with a fat pink border around it, that means the collection is complete as of this date. For every picture with a thin border, the collection is 1-3 images off a complete set
For example,

Left-complete Middle-1-3 off complete Right-Incomplete

3.Feb.2011 - BAHAHAHAHA! WE SURVIVED TNT'S DESTRUCTIVE NEW CODING FILTERS! YES!!

17.Jan.2011 - It's done! v.v' They've all been cleaned up. I hope you enjoy this revamp a little ^^' Hopefully there aren't any broken links in the next month or so XD

ALSO! IF YOU WERE LISTED AS A CUSTOM ONLY ARTIST AND YOU'RE NO LONGER THERE, PLEASE NEOMAIL ME! I've had a few coding glitches and losses...

16.Jan.2011 - Happy new year! I can't believe we've broken the 400 hits mark! Anywho over the past few days and the next week, I'll be cleaning up all the dead links and those adoptables without many painted colours.
As a key for you, those that are listed as colours other than RED are deemed by me active, and/or have a wide variety of painted colours.

Those that are red I'm either:
-Waiting on a reply neomail.
-Nice enough to list despite not matching the rest of the collection.
-Revamping/Editing the petpage.

A big thank you goes to those artists who have added the colours I've requested! I do hope you get the advertising for it!

31.Dec.2010 - So all that good work I did yesterday? Kapooey! I didn't save the work, and a silly textarea miscoding broke it. Now I have to clean out all those broken links. On the up side, I've begun making my own Kacheek adoptables in the About the Host section for you to take. There will be more in the coming days. -headdesk-

30.Dec.2010 - Okay, so I've been lazy. I've been coming on and adding those who've asked to be added, and not removing the dead links. Well I bought myself some EASY-OFF-BAM and swept the place clean of the dead links today. If there is the odd one, it's a reference for me because the artist is revamping them. I'm also adding a non-requirement to any requests to be listed that they link back to me.
I've also added a recommendation section, where I recommend some artists that are simply downright lovely people who are ready to doodle your neopet.

12.Aug.2010 - The site is born! Welcome! There are only a few of each species, but more are coming!
What's the borders for?
The borders around some picture refer to how complete the set is. For example:

Top Left= complete...Top Right= 1-3 off complete
Bottom= Incomplete

What is this site?
This is a directory of all the unique ranges of adoptables that wonderful artists have created for you as a gift!

What caused you to create the Adoptables Phonebook?
I first discovered adoptables, and the world of petpages, many years ago, and after seeking out other adoptables directories, I found that I really disliked the way they were set out and how they listed every adoptable, regardless of if there were only four colours completed. SO! I picked what I liked and what I didn't like about the websites, made the phonebook for myself, but I worked out that others didn't like the other directories, so I made the phonebook public. I constantly see neopians referring others to the phonebook and I feel thoroughly proud.

Did you make these?
I made a gnorbu set, a kacheek set and a peophin set that are listed here, but for the point of anonymity I've not given myself 'top rank' in the catagories unless my set is complete. Other than those three, no I didn't make these adoptables.
What is an adoptable?
An adoptable is an artists view of a neopet that they have allowed anyone to use on Neopets, so long as they do not edit it or call it their own or enter it into the Beauty Contest. It is generally used as a picture to depict your neopet without asking for a custom designed adoptable from the artist. This links in tightly with a neopet's website.

What is a neopet's website?
Generally speaking (called a 'Petpage'), a neopet's website can be used for anything. This page here is a neopet's website. I use it to show you the fantastic adoptables people have made, whereas artists use it to show their neopet's characters in detail. Also generally speaking, the layout of the website is thus-far:
-A greeting from the neopet
-Their statistics/attributes
-Their Likes/Dislikes
-Their history/story -Their family/friends/enemies/rivals
-Their owner's (you) artwork of them
-Artwork of them from other users
-Their Adoptables
-Their Adoptables they've custom made for others
-Adoptables custom made for them
-Goodbyes and other links

A very good example of this is Haiseo's Petpage.

Some of these aren't showing up! Halp!
Okay, that can mean one of two things. Right click the image that has an 'x' with your mouse, then left click "Show Image". This should reload the picture. Since this page has so many pictures, some fail to load due to the others taking up so much loading time. If this doesn't work, then please Neomail Me and tell me which adoptable isn't working and I'll remove it from here ^^

Will you list my (insert amount here) species adoptables?
Probably. If you only have 10 colours complete, probably not. If you've got 30-40 colours, probably. This is what sets the phonebook apart from other adoptables directories. I try to list the most complete sets available. Baring that in mind, if I say I will list them, I'll stick the adoptables in their specific species box here, but the direct link to your petpage will remain the same in all species you tell me about.

How can I get a custom made adoptable for _______?
When you look at a Petpage and see their adoptables, just above it you will see a list of what you can and cannot do with their adoptables (like not being able to edit them). Normally, just below that, there will be what they call an adoptable's status. It looks something like this vv
Custom Adoptables Status
Requests: Open/Closed
Trades: Open/Closed

A request is when you can simply neomail them and ask for a custom made adoptable. Generally, they won't do a custom adoptable unless you have a slightly different design to the neopets.com colours. So if you have a blue Blumaroo, and it looks no different to a normal blue blumaroo, they'll tell you to take a hike =3.

A trade is when you yourself have an adoptable they would like, but it's only if they have a neopet of the species of your adoptables. For example:
Hi Sealla! I adore your Lupe adoptables! Would you like to trade? I have Ogrin adoptables that you may like on this page! (you need to give them an example). My lupe's design is on his petpage here (link them to your reference sheet).

Now if I liked the Ogrin adoptables that that person has, and if I had time to custom make a lupe for them of their design, then I would send a reply saying yes I'd like to trade. When trades are listed as closed, then they don't have time to make a custom adoptable/or they lost the template, no matter what you offer them. When one word is crossed out, it means the un-crossed out (or bold) word is their status. If it says closed, don't ask for one, even if it's a trade (if the trade is closed too). If it says open, they'll normally have a form you need to fill out and send as a neomail to a specified account. For example, my custom Lupe adoptables status will be:
Requests: Open/Closed
Trades: Open/Closed

If you want a custom, please send this in a neomail to my main account:
My name is:
Pet Species:
Pet Name and Nickname:
Reference Sheet:

What's all this hallabalu about a reference sheet?
A reference sheet is a picture of your neopet that you've drawn or coloured in with the specific colour, markings and details unique to your pet. My lupe's reference sheet is
