Hey everyone.
Sorry about the serious lack of updates. It’s been crazy for me… college applications, torn ligaments, big yearbook deadlines, etc.
Anyways Lauren, one of the co-owners, and I were talking about holiday stuff so we came up with some great games.
To start off we are inviting all sites and graphic artists to create our holiday banner. Our birthday was ages ago so now let’s celebrate Christmas/Winter.

Requirements:
Must be Christmas/Holiday/Winter
Must be 684px wide and between 220-243 px in height.
There must be a 2-3px white border followed by a solid border.
Must say NeopetsGuide or NeopetsGuide.com.

It must be submitted (by posting a comment on this bulletin with a link to the image) by Next Thursday and the winner will be announced on Friday.

Prizes? Heck yeah.
It’s a neo-prize pack with some super stuff and if you are a site you get All of December Advertising on our high-hit site. You will also be entered to win our Christmas Winners Circle prize for the Holiday Grand Prize (TBA).

Also.. I am looking for New Graphic Artists and Tutorial Writers to join staff. I also have management positions available which would give you a lot of power on the site. We have a staff lounge!

I would like to welcome a new staff member - Anna - who will be designing layouts which will usually be coded by me. Anna has already designed a great Mary-Kate and Ashley petpage layout, which I have already coded. We look forward having Anna aboard! Remember, we are still on the lookout for new staff members, so if you think you have what it takes, check out the apply for staff page. You can get this layout on the petpage layouts page. Enjoy!

I have added 14 new guild layouts, (most of which are non-neo related ones), and 17 userlookups!
Enjoy the new graphics. On a note, I will be busy for the next 2 weeks, as the school year is nearing an end in Australia, meaning lots of end of year exams.
