Welcome to Burnish Welcome to the guild website of Burnish! In the beginning of October 2012 a new neo-related guild was created in hopes of helping it's members grow, learn and connect with one another. We welcome all Neopians to this friendly environment. Whatever your calling is you can find someone who shares your interests and goals in succeeding in your Neopian life. Everyone from avid avatar collectors to champion battledome fighters are welcome to help each other gain more from their Neopets experience. We are also a highly interactive guild, our members are open and accepting to newcomers. Burnish hopes to continue to thrive and flourish through active, friendly members as well as a dedicated and hardworking council who is helpful and motivated. About this page: On this page you will be able to find links to everything that is available to you as a current or future member of Burnish. We hope that you take the time to explore all of the wonderful options that the owners have worked so hard to develop just for you! You can find everything from guild activities to guides. Now, with all our countless hours spent creating and molding all of these exciting tools for your use we ask that if you happen upon any mistakes-big or small that you immediately neomail one of the council members so that we can get it fixed as soon as possible. Without any further delay, please go forth and blaze a new trail, and hopefully we will be seeing you very soon!

Notebook

note·book - a book in which notes are entered, registered, recorded, etc.

After joining burnish we ask all members to create a notebook. In your notebook we want a little piece of you! It is a place to put your badges, Art work, Wishlist's, screenshots, Goals, a blog? Anything you want, It will be linked to from our member page. Once you submit your notebook you will receive a badge. There is also the chance with each edition of the guilds newspaper your notebook may be spotlighted. This will also award you a new badge!

You may make your own layout, use a pre made petpage design from your favorite pre made site or use the Guild site layout (here) so you can keep everything guild related on one petpage!

Here is an example of my notebook. and no, we don't expect as much detail as I have here, but mine has been worked on over a long time! I use it for everything now! As I said fell in love with this idea and thought it would make a wonderful edition to our guild too!

Take a look at our Member section to view other Notebook and get to know your fellow members!

Guild Boards

Someone mail me the board coding we have been using!

John's Best Guides All credit to the creators.

-basics of battling, my fav guide of all. the part about faerie abilities can get a little tedious with scrolling, but it should be fine on the whole. different categories of weapons and their general info are also given. read up these categories, but skip the part that lists out all the weapons.

Description about Leagues
Nick's League Calculator

Next up, training guides. the following 2 has useful information, some might prefer one over the other, personally i like both.

The last is a list of weapon abbreviations to help you when buying a Battledome set.
