YAY! Go Crew! :D I'm all for themes, but if I have to deal with just ONE more stupid PB inflation, I'm going to scream.

TNT, you guys can make themes come from anything you want, but I beg that you guys NEVER do another avatar/sidebar theme that involves the owner owning that painted paint. It ruins it for other painted pets.

Seriously, I'm still peeved with Island Bori being a "bad" choice cause of that stupid Island quiggle avatar. Paint brushs should never be used for inflation. I'd rather deal with more "snoarkle snout" items to get something. It'll only hurt me on a KQ, but that's it.

I hope the themes happens by completed a quest or something.

I hope Galgarrath gets his own theme, but I'm kidding myself there. :lol:

I'm looking forward to this. I love collecting AV's. It gives me something to do on NP.

Yeah. I once wanted an Island pet. Back when it cost 300-400k for a paint brush.

I was close, like 20k away from being able to buy the p/b.

Then the av came out. Up to 600k in a day, then higher, and higher, over a million. My dreams of an Island pet were shattered.

PLEASE, if you make a PET toolbar, make it a LAB COLOR. Like the coconut jubjub.

I'm not mad about the PB avatars because of inflation...I'm mad because I'll never get them.

I have 4 pets I love very much and work very hard to create. I am not going to give one of my pets up for an orange grundo or an island quiggle. I just have to pray the Lab ray blesses me with one, but that's a million to one chance. :(

I'd personally rather not have another avatar-like hype with customizable things (I would rather have them as default.) Unlike avatars you can't really show them off .... it just seems pointless that you haveto earn them.

I don't know... I like the idea, but I can't afford to pay astronomical prices for items since I'm saving up for a Maraquan p/b.
I'd like it if they were free ;)

there will probably be some 'free' ones like there are with avs, like you have to look something up in the neopedia, Ill get those ones, but unless they release one that i really like then i wont pay to get any.

I'm fine with them as long as I don't need a Fountain Faerie quest to use the Faerieland skin :P

it would be nice if they would release them to go with avatars as well (that would solve the "showing them off" problem)
It would also be nice to release a few that are lke the standard avatars, like a Halloween one and a winter one-
Oh and I just realized that someone else had a very cool idea (at least I think this is what they meant) What if you could set your look-up to change the other persons bar, like when they come to my winter themed look up I have a snow bar and it changes the side bar to snow for them...that would be VERY cool.

Anyway, overall I'm really excited about collecting themes- I sort of collect avatars, and thats fun and all- but since I don't chat, they're kind of useless- these will be great because I can use them all the time to make the site look nicer for me :) I'm very pleased with this idea.

I really don't want themesthat require purchase of a p/b. I have no problem with avvies except when you need a certain color pet to obtain it. A once cheap p/b will now skyrocket. Same with the trans potions. Want to get ridof the whole pound problem? Release A LOT more trans potions for pets. A lot of people would rather disown a pet than pay over 50K just to get it changed.

They need to make a lot of default themes, or else the idea won't be as fun.

I predicted this XD
I hope none are item-based, but other than that anything such as high-scores, location visits, etc. are fine with me.

There will probably be way less themes than avatars as they are a lot harder to make.
