The Top Side Bar

The first picture is a picture of what seems to a type of fruit or something like that. If you click it, it wil take you to your "inventory." You will arrive at a page that has several links, on top and items on the bottom. We won't be exploring those links on the top in this guide since they often change... =( Sorry.

Here you can access all of your items and do what you like with them. There will be a series of a pictures on the bottom showing you all the items you currently posses (if any). If you click on an item, a pop up window will apear with many different options you can choose to do different things with that specific item (figure 3). Here are the list of the choices:

• The first option will be, if it is a food item, to feed the item to one of your pets. This option will feed your pet the item, and the item will disappear forever.
  
• The next option will be to deposit your item in you "Safety Deposit Box." This feature will place the item in your Safety Deposit Box and keep it more "safe" from ghosts and other creatucres that may "steal" your items. You can access your safety deposit box by clicking the picture of a safe on the far right of the yellow bar with images on the top of the screen.
  
• The next option is to "donate" the item. This option sends the item to a donation tree (Which we will visit later) which you can access by clicking the image of a tree to the left of the image of a safe on the yellow bar. The next option will be to discard the item.
  
• This makes the item DISAPEAR FOREVER. No one will ever be able to re-claim this items, so only choose it if you are sure of what you are doing.
  
• The next option will be to put the item into your shop where you can sell it. We won't learn too much in-depth about shops in this tutorial since we already have our own shop guide which you can see by clicking here.
  
• The next option is to give the item to a neofriend. This feature only works if you have atleast oone neofriend. It allows you to send items to other users.
  
• The final option is to put the item up for auction. We will learn more in depth about auctioning items later.

--------------------------------------------------------------

The next button on the top yellow bar takes you to your shop. You will arrive at a page with several links which we will explore. This is where items end up if you choose the

There are a series of text links on the top below the yellow link bar. If you click the first one titled, "Create/Edit a Shop", you can create your very own shop. It costs 150 nps (the Neopian currency) to open a shop, but in the long run, it is very much worth it. Here, you can enter a shop name, choose a shopkeeper, a greeting, and if you choose, you can enter some HTML or text to make your shop pretty. Then, at the bottom of the page, click the button entititled, "Create Shop," and you will own your own shop. You can come back to this page as often as you want to update your shop layout, shopkeeper, or greating.

The next link on the top should read "Stock." This takes you to the page where all your items in your shop are resting. Here you can remove items from your shop or price items to be sold. When you are done pricing items, simply scroll to the bottom of the page and click the "update" button to update all prices. There are also scroll down bar on the far right of each item. You can choose a number here to choose how many of that specific item you would like to remove from your shop and send back to your inventory.

The next top link is a link with the words, "Shop Till." Here is where the nps go when you sell an item. You can come here to pick up your nps.

The next top link is "Sale History." This will take you to a page that shows what users have purchased items from your shop, what they purchased, the date they purchased it on, and the price they paid. This page only lists items that have been bought for 1000 nps or higher.

The next top link is "Quick Stock." This takes you to a page which shows all your items in your inventory. You can send items to different places on this page, but a much quicker rate. If you are confused for what each feature means, see the previous section.

The next top link is titled, "Shop Front." This is what your shop looks like when a user visits your shop. It displayes your greating, shopkeeper, any HTML, and any items you currently have for sale.

The next top link is entititled, "Shop Blogs." This takes you to a page with blogs that neopets has created for users to use in their shops. You can copy and paste the code for the shop blog you like in the HTML section of your "Create/ Edit a Shop" page. It will add the snazzy blog to your shop. Of course, you can also find awesome blogs by clicking here.

The last top link in your shop is entitled "Item Gallery". Item Galleries are something like a shop... but you don't sell anything. You collect items that are a like and put them together in a shop to show everyone. We're not going to go too deep into this however... Sorry. =(

---------------------------------------------------------------

The next link on the yellow bar looks like a giant house. It will take you to the Guilds home page. You can find the perfect guild for you here, or create your own. Feel free to read up more on guilds in other guides. You can view our guild guide by clicking here.

---------------------------------------------------------------

The next link on the yellow bar looks like a mallet. It will take you to the Auction area of the site. Here you can bid on auctions or start your own. . There are a bunch of text links on towards the top. The first one will take you to the Auction Home Page. Here is a walkthrough of all the links:

• All Auctions : All auctions lists all the auctions currently in progress. On the bottom of the main links are more links like auctions 1-20, etc. etc. Those just list all the auctions in progress because putting ALL the auctions on one page would be out of the question since there are over 100's of thousands progressing at once. The auctions are listed by how much time is left in that auction. The auctions with the least time left are listed first, etc. etc. There are 7 categories. Auc. No., Item, Owner, Time left, Last Bid, Current Price, and Last bidder.
  • Auc No. - Basically the ## of the auction. The auction ## corresponds with the amount of time left in that auction.
  • Item The picture of the item and the name of the item. You can click the name or picture you are shown a page with the item information, the people who have bidded on the item, and it's where YOU bid on the item.
  • Owner The name of the person auctioning off the item. Click the to go to that person's neopets profile.
  • Time Left : How much time is left in the auction. It doesn't tell you the exact time like it used to but an approxamite time like <30 Min
  • Last bid: The price the last person bidded.
  • Current Price: Price you would have to bid if you wanted to bid on the item.
  • Last Bidder Username of the last bidder. You can click the to see that username's profile.
  
  
• My Auctioned Items: This shows the items you are have in the auctions. Same information as listed above.
  
• My Bids: Items you are currently bidding on in the auctions. Basically the same information as above.
  
• Auction Genie: You can search for a certain item you would like here in this section. You can also lookup someone's username though you could always go up to their userlookup. *shrug* Be sure to spell right.
  
• Help: Answers some questions for you on the auctions.
  
• Status: This page tells you how many auctions are in neopet's database and have not been processed. If this number is high then expect a longer wait time till your auction is finalised and items and neopoints are exchanged. The auctions process roughly 1,000 auctions every 6 minutes, however more are being added continually.

---------------------------------------------------------------

The center of advertisement on neopets! There's not much to say about it but that you advertise here. The more neopoints you pay the higher it is on the list. It's a fun place to browse.

---------------------------------------------------------------

Here is the place where you can search through other people's shops for items that you need. The links on the top are listed above in the shop section. Type in what you're searching for, choose wheater you're looking for shop or gallery, Choose if you want the exact item or not, and the maximum and lowest price you want your searches you are looking for. Once you put in the item you are looking for you are welcomed with this page with a table with 4 sections.

• Shop Owner: This is the name of the owner who has the item you are looking for. Click their name to go to their shop.
• Item: Name of the item.
• Amount in Stock: Amount of that item the owner has in their store.
• Price: The most important... THE PRICE! The price of the item the owner is selling.

---------------------------------------------------------------

The battledome is basically where you battle other pets. I'm not going to talk much about it since you can see a guide here. Though the battledome is one of the most famous things in neopia and what your pet can do. This is where wars occur, where your pet tests it's strength, etc. !

---------------------------------------------------------------

Next you come to an image of a faerie. Click it, and you are welcomed with several little huts going all the way up to the mountains. These are the lists of the top about, 700 shops in neopia. How do you get on the top you ask? Well. The larger your shop size, the more chances you will be on the list. The people with the highest shop sizes in neopia are in the top 10.

Clicking on one of the huts brings you to a page much like the noticeboard page (see above). It's actually basically the same thing, except it's more expensive to get on this list. But it gives great advertising to your shops. There are three important places we will be looking at on this map. Here they are:

             

• Top 20: The top 20 shops in the marketplace are located at the very lower right hand corner of the screen. They are two little huts next to a tree as shown in figure 4.
• Soup Faerie: The soup faerie is on the lower left hand corner across from the top 20 shops shown in figure 5. The soup faerie gives out food to those too poor to afford food (meaning below 2000 neopoints). If you have less than 2000 neopoints she will give food to your pets till they are bloated. She's a very nice faerie. :) But - you can't trick her to get food. She knows how many neopoints you have!
• Shop Wizard: The shop wizard is the center of the market place, as shown in figure 6. Information about the shop wizard is explained above.

---------------------------------------------------------------

Next link on the side bar is something that looks like a cybunny. This brings us to the merchandise page. I won't explain it here because it's already in this part of our in-depth guide. But it's where you find news, etc. on the real world neopets merchandise you can buy.

---------------------------------------------------------------

This page shows the price changes of items in neopian shops. What they do is they look at prices in the shop wizard and change them accordingly. There are 5 categories in this table.

• Item: This includes the picture of the item and the name of the item. You can click the item to get more information about it, including it's name, it's weight, rarity, and approxamite cost. It also gives you a good description of the item.
• Time: The time the item price was changed.
• Old Price: Self-explanatory.
• New Price: Self-explanatory.
• Change: The difference between the old and new price, and it tells you wheater the cost of the item went up or down.

---------------------------------------------------------------

The neopian bank is a great place to store your neopints safely without the tax beast, or ghosts, or those stupid bug brothers to come and take your neopints. The best part is - interest! The more neopoints you keep in the bank the more interest your get. Once you enter in all the information you need (address is not important - just make one up) you're ready to go.

Interest is a certain percentage of the amount of neopoints you currently have in your bank. That percentage is added to your account everyday! Only annoying part is you have to go to the bank and remember to collect your interest otherwise you miss out on it. Interest is not added if you do not collect it. You snooze, you lose. v.v

The National Neopian Bank
