Neopets is a fun site I do sometimes... ok quite a bit actually since I started roleplaying on it. But I'm not going to tell you about roleplaying on this page, this part is for neopets. So let's get started!
First up you've got to make an account. It doesn't cost a thing to get an account though. So go to neopets and click on sign up! Then choose your age group and fill in the information. Then viola! You've got your own neopets account. Here's a tip, go to the items page and click 'Get newbie pack.' It'll give you a push in the right direction. (i suggest storing those paintbrushes for another time in your saftey deposit box) If you are 13 or older and make an account you can neomail people and go on the neoboards, so if you get stuck contact me.
Now the next thing: pets. You can have up to 4 pets at a time. I suggest you earn more neopoints by playing games before you create a pet. They can cost alot to feed, and if they get sick.... well those medicines cost alot. Once you decide you want a pet click on 'Create a pet' and choose your species of pet. You can name them anything you want, as long as it's not already taken. Choose their gender (male or female) and color. You will notice some pets you can't create, well those are limited edition pets. Many people strive to get one of these pets. Myself being one of them. ^_^ I want a draik and cybunny. These may be released on their special days, and others (like draiks and krawks) you need to do special things to acquire.
