With the Art Gallery moving to monthly, will Theme Days still be a thing, or can we submit any theme of art to the Gallery each month? Furthermore, how will the "Handmade" stuff work. Will there still be a Handmade Themed Gallery (which would mean the entire month's gallery is handmade), or will handmade entries submitted any month and accepted on any page be able to obtain the Random Contest Avatar? ~ mooseydoom101
Hello! Art Gallery will still continue to be twice a week, which means about 8 Art Gallery Days a month. The Art Gallery schedule is posted in the Art Neoboard.
One of the Art Gallery Day themes each month will be Handmade Art Gallery, where all the winning entries will be granted the Random Contest Avatar alongside the normal Art Gallery winnings.

I LOVE Petpets, and I'm loving the many new flavors of Pet styles coming out. I was wanting to point out a gap I'm hoping to at least land on some list somewhere! The Birthday Petpets are a delight. Literally. They're covered in sprinkles, bright, and have their own energy that I adore. Can I please request that Pet versions of these specific types get added to the list for consideration? I may be selfish here, as we do have other treat styles, and even the 25th anniversary colour, but they just don't go well with these fun little guys (IMO)! ~ ninkish
Hi there!
I agree that the Birthday Petpets are a delight! Who doesn’t like sprinkles?! Thank you for the scrumptious idea. While we can’t make any promises, we will keep this in mind for future celebrations, so keep an eye out!

Hi TNT! For some reason one of the flowers are blue in Under the Lotus Background. Can you please fix it? ~greyfever
Hello! Thank you fro brining this to our attention! We have fixed the issue, so the background flower should no longer be blue! Happy customising!

I love collecting things on Neopets, and I am excited about the Archived Book Collection c: Since it's my birthday month, I immediately customised my bookshelf so it looks pretty. I noticed that the items appear like they are floating, which makes me feel like I'm floating somewhere on Kreludor! Is there any chance that the positions could be adjusted so that the items sit nicely on the shelf? Thank you ~tatyanne
Hello, thank you for bringing up this concern! We have fixed this issue, so the items aren’t floating in Kreludor anymore! We will try and optimize it so that it can get closer, but this is the best we can do so far! We hope you enjoy the Archived Book Collection!

Hi TNT! The Valentine Plumpy Sleeping Bag Trinket seems to be missing the sleeping bag. The name and the preview implies there should be one but there's only the plumpy when the item is applied to a Pet. ~elbereth_elentari
Hi there! Thanks for bringing this to our attention! Valentine Plumpy should now have a soft comfy sleeping bag to lay on now! Happy customising!

Hi there, and Happy Friday! (Or whenever you're reading this). I was excited to see questions about certain items being answered in the editorial, and I was wondering if I might be able to solve the mystery of the Meepit Balloon this way. I love meepits, and collect meepit themed items. My white whale has long been the Meepit Balloon, which seems to be lost in the void somehow. It's existed for at least a decade at this point, but as far as I know it's never been seen, and no one so much as knows what the description for it is. Can Meepit Balloon be saved from limbo? Or is it doomed to forever be a legend? ~ kimikicchi
Hello!
Thank you for writing in! It does appear that this balloon seems to have floated away, but guess what? We stacked 43 Meepits into a nearby tree to retrieve it! I also heard that afterwards, they may have snuck something into your inventory… sneaky Meepits!

Hi Adler! As someone who has been entering the Storytelling Contest for quite a few years now I was wondering if there was any possibility of making the avatar retroactive. With the contest being scaled down it is now approximately five months in between avatar rounds and that's only ten new winners each time. Could we consider reworking this somehow? Thank you! ~ metakitsune
Hello metakitsune!
We have heard everyone’s feedback and I can report that we are actively working on this initiative. We appreciate everyone’s understanding with the contest and spotlight changes and we wanted to ensure past and future winners are acknowledged. We will also be adjusting the Storytelling avatar to award every 3 rounds instead of 5.

For the new random contest, what if you don't have social media for personal reasons? Are users just locked out of that contest? ~mooseydoom101
Hello mooseydoom101!
We hear your concerns! The team is trying to find the best way to reach new and active players in a modern way, hence why we want to see what would look like if we branch out into social media. We obviously understand the concerns surrounding it, and are actively discussing ways for everyone to participate. If you or any players have any suggestions, feel free to write in and let us know!! Can’t wait to share more info when we finalize the contest! ~~ TNT Luna
Hi, Adler! *gives cookie* With the concerning answers regarding how the milestones issue for Neopian Times are handled, are there any thoughts of revising how you can obtain the NT Writer avatar? Like making more milestones, make it obtainable for other issues etc? While I and many don't want it to retire, it feels very impossible to get it as of now and current submission process. ~baster_santa
Hi baster_santa!
Thank you for the cookie! This avatar is supposed to be challenging to get, so as of right now, we have no plans to revise the frequency of this avatar being granted considering it’s for anniversary milestones.
