The Neopets ( in their normal colours ) are getting to look a little cartoonish, like the big eyes, soft edges and the classic poor ol' puppy dawg face. Can you make a pet or edit the pets that look a little tougher, like they used to be? _Allismine_
This is something we have noticed happening too. It wasn't an intentional change, and we are going to try to gradually switch back to a less over-the-top cute style.

And we thought TNT was either blind or doing it intentionally to anger all the guys :roll:

Cute's useful, but come on, basing a whole site off of the idea of cute!!! No wonder Neopets is going down the tubes!! They are choking on fluff!

I heard somebody suggest once that ENT were making the site so 'cute' and 'girly' they might as well put a huge banner on the front page saying 'NO BOYS ALLOWED'.

Anyway, to get the new avatar, you have to use a morphing potion on a pet. Way to cause pointless item inflation over a small pixeled image, ENT!
