# Make your way to the Furniture Shop to purchase one of these fancy new Altador rugs.

# The User Lookup of the Week goes to marshallmathers_111 for a rather spacey Faerie Grundo lookup.

# A whole new page of art has just gone on display over in the Art Gallery.

# New Feature! - Our code-checking filters have been given an upgrade! Just as before, when you submit code to Neopets (in your user lookup, shop, Petpage, etc.) it will be checked. However, with the new system, the filter will now let you know what parts are invalid! This means your code must be properly formatted for it to work. Standards coders will be happy to hear this. :)

Rest assured, this does not mean your customization options have been limited! We're working hard to make sure you can continue to be creative in all areas where code is allowed. This just means that certain code that is invalid will no longer be let passed the filter, and you'll have to validate your code if you want it to work on Neopets. There is lots more to explain, but not enough room on New Features to do it. :) If you'd like more information, click here to view the FAQ!

# If you missed any issues of the Neopets Magazine, you can now get back issues through the Official Neopets Magazine Website! You can also round out your plushie collection via the Becketts website by clicking here.

# It seems not one person was able to guess last round's Mystery Pic, so we're running it again! We've also doubled the worth of the item prize, and you'll have until Wednesday, May 3rd to give it another go. To help you out, here's a list of what it is NOT a picture of, according to some of your very own guesses:

» A whale with a horn on its head looking down.
» a piece of poo from a demented goat
» Red shorchio tail
» mystery picture avatar which doesn't exist

# Got a Neopet who wants nothing more than to be an Ogrin? If so, Kauvara is just the Kau you want to see.

# _kittykcatmeow_ wins this week's Meridell Castle Spotlight with her level - The Basement.

# Jerdana is the latest Neopet to get her own How to Draw page! She's wise, powerful, and obviously has a really good tailor.

# This week's Gallery Spotlight goes to sylvanmyst for her gallery, The Whittler's Workshop.

# We hear Sketch Backgrounds are all the rage these days. You should download this enchanting new Koi ensemble and be the envy of all your Neofriends.

Does the implemation of the new code-checking filters mean the problems with the cookie grabbers from a while back are all fixed now? I'll like to get back to shopping more reguarly now, without fear of getting my password stolen ;(

P.S. Congratulations, Star!

Great... I'm either never going to update my user lookup again or I'll have to reduce the content (It's code heavy because i made custom buttons for everything).

The problem is that It wants ""s around URLs... I don't have enough characters left to add those :roll:

Oh well, they're not cookie grabbers, and my userlookup is perfect anyways.

Still, I just knew I'd have a problem with my useage of minimal code...

I had issues with quotes around things on my petpage, and I fixed the tons of errors it picked out. Now when I submit it, I only get one tiny little error

Mis-matched " quotes:

font size="1


And I cant find it! I assume it means that I just left out a quote somewhere when fixing the sizes, but Ive gone through with ctrl+f about 10 times with no luck :( Could that error message mean something else? Should I recheck all my quotation marks, instead of just the font size ones?

In other news, congtratulations to art gallery winners :) And its good to know that the Mystery Pic isnt a piece of poo from a demented goat.

I think it just means you should have another " right after that 1.
