Wow, looks like my MS Paint Challenge went over well. I was originally going to do a second, but since there's already a few variations of it, I'm going to move on. Here it is: Invent a Neopet! Your task: Think up a totally original, brand new Neopet. Make sure it's creative, because a dog Neopet (unless it could shoot lasers out of its eyes and fly by blowing its nose) wouldn't classify as creative. After you've thought of the Neopet, draw a picture of it or write a description of it. Pictures are preferred, but if you can write a description of it that can paint a sufficient picture in my mind, then that'll be just as good. Now that you've drawn or written the pet, think up a name. Don't just slap any old name on it, make a creative name! After that, post the picture/description and the name on this thread. A little extra information about the pet (diet, habitat, etc.) would be a bonus. The picture does not have to be made using MS Paint. Crayons, watercololours, computer programs ect. are all accepted. The picture just HAS to be drawn by yourself if you choose to create a picture. Remember, a written description is also fine. Now for the best part... prizes! I've decided that since it's an Invent a Neopet contest, that obviously the prizes should be Petpets. You can either keep the Petpets or sell them. First Place Prize - Avabot 
Second Second Prize - Yullie 
Third Place Prize - Psimouse  I hope everyone has fun  Contest Deadline: Saturday, August 16th at 9:00 am NST. No entries will be accepted after then. Entries will be judged sometime after the deadline.EDIT: Right, I knew I frorgot something. LIMIT ONE ENTRY PER PERSON. I'm not too keen on handing an Avabot, a Yullie and a Psimouse all to one person  |

I drew mine in Paint anyway! ;D  It's called the Amitimide. Though quite strong and friendly by nature, most Amitimides are very shy. This one is green! (Wow, major news flash.) |

 That's the blue version of the Rinitil. Ph33r my uncreative-ness. Ph33r my lousy shading. Just ph33r it. Aaanyway, it prefers jungle-ish areas, islands, whatever (So basically Krawk Island and Mystery Island.) It is a lousy swimmer (Hey, could you swim if you had a body like that?) and can't fly, but it's pretty good at jumping. Usually very big. Oh yeah, TK, if it doesn't show up, Geo is down. Just wait for Geo to work again. I'll be gone on the 16th and I won't be back until the end of August, so if I win anything, my username is teghan62. |

Eh... I took a crack at this.  www.deviantart.com/view/2588248Introducing the Tyerin. It's usually wandering around the volcanoes of Tyrannia, or flying in the frigid cold of Terror Mountain (why, I dunno). It brings warmth to wherever it goes, and steam sometimes rises from its nose. It doesn't eat much, but enjoys eatting plants rather then meat (it's an omnivore, but it eats more plants them meat :3). Tyerins travel by themselves, or small packs of 5. They are quiet fast, and can defend themselves well, although their strength is a bit low. The picture is at Geocities, so if it doesn't appear, click on the link. |

Oh yeah, if anyone has a problem with uploading and whatnot, simply email the picture to me (too_kule@hotmail.com) and I'll get it hosted and post it here. Make sure you entitle the email Invent a Neopet so I know it's from someone I know, because I rarely open unkown email.

This picture is by ginger23456. I would like to assure you the poor colouring is not her fault, but the fault of my stupid computer. It sometimes decide to do that. I'm not going to let that alter my judging because I know what the original colouring looked like. I now present to you the Whoopit.  Here's the description Ginger provided: The Whoopit is an energetic and mischievous Neopet and dwells in the sea around Mystery Island. It uses its to dig out tasty morsels in the sand. |

EDIT: ^_^ Done in MS Paint just for fun.  The Carpatra is a desert pet and loves to be dressed in expensive clothing and jewelry. If you treat it right, they'll love you forever.
Carpatra (plural) love to eat fish of all kinds. In fact, they will eat practically nothing BUT fish. They're angered very easily and rival the infamous Uni as much as vanity is concerned.Notice that I stuck the famous neck scruff in there for that "Neopet Touch" ^_~ |

Great idea! I'm going to enter later if I have time.
August 16th is my birthday, so I may be a bit busy that day so I would have to send my entry if I did one beforehand.
