6th and 7th January - Gnorbu Shearing Day

#1 Post by Dustin »

# That frolicing Neopet the Gnorbu has two new colours that it can be painted at the Rainbow Pool! (Although they might want to wait for Shearing Day to end first...)

Image Image

# The newest issue of the Neopian Times has been released! Keep your eyes open for great stories and adventures like The Annual Conference of Evil and Dancing With Slushies.

Image

# This week's Neoadventure Spotlight goes to brenicaevf333 for The Flower of Immunity.

"You take the right path. It seemed to take hours, but as you travel down the path, you begin to see dark, twisted trees and dead, crunchy leaves, and the sky seemed to have grown darker, too. With wide-eyes you glance constantly behind your shoulders, scared that something might jump on you. Suddenly..."

# As the Gnorbu loves to have fun, we have created some new Gnorbu-themed Fun Images!

# Poems are fun and we are done. No, wait. There's more.

# Today is a special day for the Gnorbus, so owners don't forget to pick up some supplies from the Grooming Shop!

# A new Random Contest has begun! Good luck to all the entrants, and congratulations to last week's winners.

# If you adore Gnorbu and think their coat is terribly soft, you will love the new Gnorbu wool clothes on sale at the Clothing Shop.

# The next round of the Beauty Contest is about to begin! Head on over and vote for your favourite.

# If you are feeling a little stressed, this Background might be just what you need.

# ellieslevel by ellie_01 is the newest Faerie Caves Spotlight winner.

# Gnorbu Day would not be complete without some fancy new art to peruse in the Art Gallery.

# Captain Threelegs is giving Free Training to Gnorbu on their special day!

# RUN! There are coconuts falling from the sky? Maybe you can make sense out of our latest Caption Contest...

Image

# Some tasty new foods are now on sale at the Food Shop! Made from real Gnorbu wool!

I like the Plushie Gnorbu! It would have been better with slightly more perky ears, though. But, overall, I like it.

Me too! Which is weird, because Eeyore is blue, not pink, and a donkey, not a llama. But I thought of him immediately when I saw them! It's that same worn out, sad but cute plushie look. <3

Exactly. :lol: Not the same colour nor species...but it's the same sweet, almost sad look. ^__^

What? They turned all gnorbus sheared for the day? Oh that's hilarious! :roflol: Now I wish I had one. I think they're cute, and I quite like both of the new colors, but I don't have room for one.

fun images- this one's just so very naughty of TNT! :evil:

sheared gnorbus are kawaii! :roflol: I want to hand them little sweaters or something- won't they get cold? incidentally, I looked at some gnorbu lookups and they all read [Name] the Sheared Gnorbu. TNT should make it a gnorbu-only color- with a PB that looks like clippers or something (or lab-only) :lol:

One of my lab pets turned into a blue Gnorbu not too long ago. I have the lab bookmarked, so I didn't see the change until I got to the second page of the lab. "What the deuce?" I go back to the quick ref page, see the color as "Sheared", and just about died laughing. (Neremid was not amused.)

Very cute TNT! I love it! :lol:

Seconded. Might be easier to do lab-only, though. Hey, if they can have an Alien color specific to Aishas, and a Marshmallow color for Grundos, I don't see why not. :P A Gnakie Gnorbu, perhaps?

Nice set Angisfab!

I third the idea of it being a color! Lab only would be nice, I cannot imagine how expensive it'd be if it was a PB.
