brinkie got their Neopet at http://www.neopets.com



Welcome guest! I'm vocanic and my owner Brinkie has asked to borrow my little space on the web to host her application for Aqueeus, who'll hopefully join or family! I'll leave it up to her now to present it all to you. Enjoy your stay!



This means that a petpage application is required, basically you need to make a petpage that explains a bit about you, what you aim to do with the pet, for extra credit you could add drawings, stories, poetry, anything you want that relates to the pet. Check with owners before making a petpage, they may have other information that they want you to add.

Please bear in mind, I'm from Holland and not a native speaker of English, so if I make the odd grammar or spelling mistake, please forgive me (or even better, correct me, I've got to learn someday don't I?). Apart from that, I don't know HTML either, so if this page looks funny I've messed it up. Again. Hopefully, the images will still display and it will still be readable.



Why I want to adopt Aqueeus:
I never managed to create my own Plushie Poogle, because at first I didn't own a Poogle, and when I did have one, I couldn't afford the brush because I was saving for other goals before that (paint Aelaile Darigan, Vartan Island etc). When I finally had started saving, the new site layout and redraws came a month or two later and ruined my chances of ever owning that awesome Plushie Poogle, because TNT had drastically altered the Plushie pets for their new customization plans. I figured I'd just have to find a new dream pet and save up for that, but then I came across a girl called Ameh, who advertised her adoptiong agency on Majestich's petpage. :)
That's how I came across Aqueeus, a Plushie Poogle as a Plushie Poogle ought to be, and with a lovely name as well! I'd never adopt a pet if there was just one letter I didn't like about his or her name (with the exception of vocanic, who's name isn't capitalized, but she's been with me since my first few weeks on Neo and I'd never ever pound her). Even though I've never done a petpage application before (or any application as far as I remember), I decided to apply for him, and hope for the best. That's how I started making the pepage you're reading this very moment! I hope you like it. (Well, it's not good if you don't, is it?)


Now, in any application, it's very important to tell the owner a bit about the pet's future with you. This includes a petpet, drawing, roleplaying, Battledoming, entrance in the Beauty Contest, Pet/Petpet Spotlight, or anything else that you might want to put here. However, just telling the owner really isn't enough. I mean, anyone could just say "I'm going to enter him in the beauty contest, and in the Pet Spotlight, and roleplay him, and draw him etc." You really have to prove what you say. For instance, if you say you're getting the pet a petpet, buy the petpet and put it in your shop! Or, if you say you're going to Roleplay/Draw the pet, A sample of each is always nice. What I'd do with Aqueeus if I was to adopt him:
Nothing I wouldn't do with any of my other pets. I won't lie; Aqueeus will probably never mean as much to me as Aelaile and Andorim, but, given time, he'll probably get close. As to the things I'd do, I do them for all my pets.

  • Create a personality and decorate a lookup
    I give all my pets a short story to describe their personality, tell about their history and give the occasional (well, rare) interested reader some more information about them. I may sound awfully realistic, but seriously, every Red Kau's image, the Halloween Shoyrus image or whatever pet's images are exactly the same pixels, so what makes a pet stand out from the crowd? A nice lookup, a description of his or her personality and a bit of artwork made by the owner that no one else has. Well, of course there's the customization thing these days as well, but I'm not fond of it. I can't buy Neocash anyway and most of the NP clothes are worn by a million other pets as well. So I'll stick with the 'personalized' rather than the 'customized' pets. You may find an example of what his lookup would look like on vocanic's lookup.

  • Find a nice petpet
    I thought a Flowper would match with him, it's cute, cuddly and yellow just like him and actually looks a bit like a Poogle too. Now I just need to kidnap some TNT artists and make them draw a Plushie version of it as well (they currently only come in yellow, white, blue, maraquan and green). It's currently in my gallery, you can find it in the category Plushie Poogle. I've yet to think of a name for the little critter.

  • Draw him a bit of artwork
    I'm currently working on creating artwork for all my pets, I've put an overview on VartanMalakian's petpage. Why I haven't done that before when I've been on Neopets for more than two years? Because I'm good at drawing and sketching, but absolutely not at painting and watercolors. I find just a gray sketch rather boring and depressing and totally unworthy of my pets, so I'd rather give them a nice story on their lookup, than a sad, unfinished sketch. However, halfway the year 2007, I downloaded the program Gimpshop, which allows me give those drawings a more refined look and add some colour to it without ruining the picture :) So now I'm as busy as a bee with creating all my pets a nice piece of artwork whilst keeping up with my homework as well. Only Aqueeus possible future brothers and sisters are now jealous with him cause he's got priority right now, even though he's not even with us yet...

Other things: Daily Care
I'm online about 6 out of seven days a week, unless I've got some exams coming up or when I'm on holiday. Still, I don't feed my pets everyday, I keep them in the Neolodge so they won't get hungry if I can't get on Neo for a couple of days. I don't have them play with toys everyday either, only when their mood falls below happy.

My history on Neopets
I've been playing since March the 1st, 2005 Status pet?
No, I have only one 'status pet' and that's Brionnda, a Poogle I created on Poogle Day, she was zapped Pink by the lab. Well, I just thought
