On August 22nd, 19 years ago, Jellyneo was born! And we've been very happy to be bringing you the latest Neopets news and help ever since. You can stop by Jellyneo any time to peruse a complete Item Database (now with almost 64,000 item entries); visit the only destination on the 'net for Neopian history and lore; find a place to preview wearables; reference the premier guide to the Battledome; search a unique, categorized listing of over 146,000 Neopets images; peruse a full list of Neopets merch released since 1999; not to mention read a massive repository of guides and articles for any Neopets feature you can probably think of. And all of it is done to help you, our fellow Neopians.

To celebrate our 19th birthday, we're celebrating with a few new updates, and we're taking a look back over the past year to show you what we've accomplished!

Journey to the Lost Isle: Remastered
Continuing onward in our quest to preserve old Neopets storylines, we are excited to announce the next event series that we've remastered: Journey to the Lost Isle!

Join up with Professor Hugo Fairweather as he's come into possession information about the location of a lost island. He's quickly shot down by his fellow academics, but everyone's favorite adventurer, Roxton A. Colchester III, steps in and offers to accompany the professor and his daughter Lilian on an expedition to the island.

This plot also famously launched right after the big site layout update and customisation release in 2007—to give anyone complaining about it something else to talk about!

New Features in the Item Database!
As always, we've spent quite a bit of time over the past year adding to and enhancing our Item Database—on top of the daily upkeep of adding new items! Here's what's new:

• At the Cooking Pot
  Items that are used as ingredients in Cooking Pot recipes will now show that information on their info pages.
• Trading Post Tagging
  We revamped our tagging contribution section to have quicker turnaround time and more timely lots for tagging. Helping to tag helps build up our pricing data!
• On Your Wishlists
  If you have an item on your wishlist, it'll now display which wishlists on the item info page. You'll also have access to a bunch of quick actions, like the ability to toggle whether an item has been obtained or the ability to remove an item from your list.
• TCG Cards
  All TCG items have had their respective full size TCG images added to item info pages!
• NC Archive Wheel Prizes
  All prizes from the NC Archives Wheel have been marked, and you can now search by whether an item is a current Archives Wheel prize or a past one.
• Items That Give More Items
  While not traditionally items like goodie bags, there are a lot of items in Neopia that will "give" you another item when consumed, such as a Bacon Omelette turning into a 2/3 Bacon Omelette. We've added things like Omelettes, Jellies, Pizzas, Magical Plushies, and more to our "Items That Give More Items" guide so that you can quickly see where those types of items originated from.
• Est. Value
  We added the Est. Value for items that we have been collecting over the past several months to item info pages!
• New Special Searches
  More special searches were added, like "All Cures" and "Requested by the Esophagor".
• Search Options Galore!
  We enhanced our sidebar search to incorporate a lot of the fields and tags we've added over the years, but never added to the sidebar. You can now search by a whopping 15 additional fields, and we updated many others to be more flexible!
• Static Previews
  For all wearables, we added static image previews to the item info page for a quick snapshot into what a wearable will look like on Neopets.
• Dyeworks Section
  All items that can be dyed at Loic's Studio and all items that come from his studio now have a new "Dyeworks" section on their item info page.
• I Taunt the Pant Devil Avatar Guide & Prize Shop Guide
  New guides added for the I Taunt the Pant Devil avatar and prize shops!

And to keep up with all our continued changes, be sure to check out the change log:

As Jellyneo turns one year older, thank you to all of you, our amazing visitors. We really appreciate all of your support and kind words that we receive. Here's to another year of Neopets help and fun!

After another year of ceaseless play- the prize shop for the Altador Cup is now open once again. Following up after the phenomenal Thunder Sticks last year is another item that claims to be noisy.


While I doubt this item will make the same noise as last year, it is always good to see TNT give the battledome a nod. Tell us what you think of this new air blocking prize? Will you be picking one up or sticking to the other shop items?

Claim yours here today, before checking out our guide for more information on the other choices within the store this year.

It is time once again for one of the best events in Neopia; the Festival of Neggs! This time not only does it contain a battledome weapon, but the event is based on SPACE.

Check out the weapon here;

You may find out more in our Festival of Neggs guide! Where all the various non-battledome prizes are also listed. Will this be the same power as previous Negg Fest star the Void Blade? likely not.

And with it- two weapons!

First we have the brand new "Varia is the Bomb"- which can be claimed after only the first day. While official testing has yet to occur, apparently it’s an icon-swapped GBomb.


Additionally you can pick up a free 12 million np hidden tower item in the form of the Shield of Faerieland. This full air blocker also may block fire and physical, and given the set price it may be a decent pick up as well.


There are also loads of other unique and interesting non-battledome items to purchase and with only 125 points to do it with, you may wish to check out our guide to help you make up your mind.

I think this must be a record for new battledome items within an advent calendar; but this year we have yet one more!


While this one claims to be another single use item, it'll be interesting to see if they got it to work. Will this hearty soup hit the spot? Get to the Advent Calendar today to pick one up.

Be sure to check out our guide to see what has came out so far. We don't have much left at this point, who knows what the final day will hold.
