Welcome to Jellyneo.net!

A new update to the Neopets site redesign—v0.4.7—is now live!

1) A bunch of dailies and quest pages have been converted. Nothing new, just a bunch more sections on some high-traffic areas have been brought into the new layout:

• Esophagor
• Witch's Tower
• Obsidian Quarry
• Snowager
• Grave Danger
• Wise Old King
• Grumpy Old King
• Turmaculus
• Mysterious Symol Hole

2) The wheels of Neopia are now mobile friendly. You should have a bit more ease when spinning from your phone on the go (or from bed).


3) As previously announced, the Meridell theme is live. From our earlier post:


What's coming up?
HTML5 maps are coming soon—or so TNT says. There are also some new HTML5 games in the works. Faerie Bubbles has been confirmed to be one of the next releases there!

TNT has also posted that more information about additional pet slots should be forthcoming soon. Hopefully it's something we get to see by the end of August.

Lastly, a big update about streamlining beta releases and a new community manager was announced:

It's been a while since there's been a new beta update and Altador Cup had a lot to do with that. We're making a lot of changes internally to ensure that we get more frequent updates in a more consistent pace. We will also be communicating more frequently with the community about upcoming releases and plans with the help of our new Community Manager, who we will be introducing soon. Thank you for all your continued support!

August 5th Addendum: Another update was added in, talking about improvements to the Customisation page:

At long last, updates to Customisation are here that will drastically improve your experience with the feature! Loading times have been improved. An issue of Neopets not showing up in thumbnails is fixed. The only caveat to this is that UC Pets still need to undergo some fixes, but these issues will be addressed prior to the re-release of UC Pets.

If there are any further issues with Customisation (surrounding the page itself and not individual items), please reach out to our Customer Support with as much information as you can provide, including your username, number of pets, closet size, browser, and what you are experiencing.

Please note that our recommended closet size is 650 items! If you have more than 2,500 items in your closet, you may want to move some to your Safety Deposit Box in order to improve loading times in Customisation.

If you're still having issues with the Customisation app itself, you should reach out to Neopets support.

The new layout version of the Meridell site theme has now been released!


As with other new layout site themes, you will be able to use it even if you don't have it unlocked. Unfortunately, this site theme is tied to a past site event (Dragoyle Hunting), so it's unlikely you will be able to unlock it permanently if you haven't done so already.

To update your beta layout theme, visit Site Preferences and look for the "Beta Theme" dropdown setting (just below the old "Theme" dropdown).
