I like it better than Krawks, Tonus, Yurbles, Ogrins, and maybe one or two more that I'm forgetting. The cloud and rainbow ones are cool. I'd never own one, though.
*waits for the irony gods to zap her Eyrie into a llamam- i mean, gnorbu*
And what's with all these pet releases?! Only last week we got the Ogrin, three weeks before that there was the Xweetok. The gap before that was 6 months.

Eh, they did something similar with the Bori/Yurble/Ruki trio of releases. Then Hissi was sort of released by itself, kinda. And before Bori, the Draik and Ixi were released together.


... I think the Poogle and Kacheek are closer related to each other than the Gnorbu and Tonu, so I don't see what the problem is. As far as a year's worth of new pets go, I like the Bori, Gnorbu, and Hissi. All the others are okay.

Bori/Yurble/Ruki weren't THAT close together, though, were they? And the Draik and Ixi both went with the discovery of Meridell, so that makes sense.

Yurble/Bori/Ruki weren't released within weeks of each other, that's certain, but they were still fairly close together. TNT releases an average of about four pets a year, and they tend to flood us with new species all at once and then go through a long draught of no new pets. The recent trio of releases was awfully close together, but it seems to me that TNT is right on schedule.

I drew my own Gnorbu. Just to see how it would come out if I tried to make it more like the original Lamameeah.



Mine makes me think "donkey." The pawprint (in place of the ugly Chomby spots) doesn't make it look as naked, methinks. Very "My Little Pony," but I didn't want to stray too far from TNT's design, and I hate the Chomby spots.

I've decided that it needs a hug.


I think my version shows exactly what I don't like about the Gnorbu. The eyes are just strange (as opposed to the adorable Lamameeah eyes), the Chomby spots are ugly, and the mane could do with a little shrinkage. Though, turning it back into the Lamameeah that people voted for would probably have been the best thing for them to do.

HUG'D

I've been scanning the image databases for a Jelly Gnorbu. Nothing yet. I've got an image link to it, as soon as it stops being a Red X, I'll know it's time.

I love it, ive got one myself.
Its soooo cute - but too hard to draw just yet.

You got one? I look forward to seeing it in the Times, if you'll put it there!

Also, didn't Neo Tomi say he was getting one?

[Nut]

You know, I really wouldn't have a problem with the Gnorbu if not for the eyes. If they didn't look so weird, I wouldn't mind the makeover at all. But because I don't like the eyes, I pick on other flaws as well.

I drew a Gnorbu with practically no changes to TNT's design aside from making the eyes cuter, and I like it much better even though that's about the only difference.

He said it looked ugly, and he even made a petition about it.

So no.

[Patjade]

Just as a side note, Auryanne was the one who drew the current Gnorbu design. She is one of Neopet's top artists.

You're one edgamacated sunngekkun, Lady Jade.

Also, Neo Tomi's not getting one? I thought he said that despite the strange look, he would still get one. Did he give up?

Though I'm stillg etting one.

Nut! That Gnorbu is ADORABLE! I want that one *Points at Nut's Gnorbu* Is he up for adoption? He just has to be.

Well, I don't like the Gnorbu one bit, but Nut's Gnorbu is just so cute! You should really get one, and enter him in the beauty contest. I would so get one if I drew them like that. *pushes Nut onto the create a pet page*

I'm so evil.

[Killix]

I agree with Nut. I'd like it so much more if the eyes weren't like that.
