Dip & Bob Neggs

  • I was so elated when I heard the Festival of Neggs would be coming to Neovia that I decided to make ye a massive batch of Negg Pudding. But overnight, summat gobbled it all up and tracked dirt all over me kitchen!
  • Oh dear, well I do appreciate the thought! Perhaps you left a door open and a hungry Neopian took the opportunity to fill their belly?
  • I triple-checked all me doors and windows were locked tight! I tell ye, I was never the superstitious sort, but perhaps there’s some truth to the rumours drifting through the Neovian fog…
  • Rumours?
  • There have been whispers… That a vengeful spirit ‘as been wreaking havoc upon Neovia once the sun goes down. There have been all manners of strange sightings, and now Neovians like me are having their homes invaded and valuables stolen!
  • That does sound troubling… But are you sure it’s really the work of a ghost?
  • I had me reservations as well, but these odd occurrences all started after a stranger was caught vandalizin’ a Neovian crypt…
  • Nevertheless, I promised Tippens I would hold the Festival of Neggs in Neovia this year. And I am a faerie of my word after all!
  • Well best be careful bout it. Between all the haunting hearsay and that magsman Biggsby “revamping his business”, I fear trouble has found its way to our little town once more.
  • I appreciate your concern, but I’m sure everything will be just fine!
  • Aye you are probably right. I just worry is all, me dear. Especially after hearing what happened durin’ last year’s festival… by the by, how is poor ole Topsi doing?
  • Much better! He really wanted to help out this year, but Dr. Neggistential hasn’t quite finished debugging him. He says that Dr. Sloth’s code is rather complicated, but it shouldn’t be much longer before Topsi is back to his old negg-loving self!
  • Oh, that is wonderful to hear. I’ll have a special scone waiting for him! Assuming he can even eat that is… But enough of my prattling, it seems your first Negg Hunter has arrived!
  • Oh! I didn’t even see you there. Welcome to this year’s Festival! As you can see, we decided to try something a little different! We’ve set up our campsite in the courtyard of the old Meepit Oaks Sanitorium for the Psychologically Fragile.
  • No need to worry though! The zomutts have all been cleared out and we even did some renovations like adding in those charming stained-glass windows! I couldn’t bring myself to remove the overgrown vines though. Even in Neovia it’s nice to have a bit of greenery for the festival. Speaking of which, here is your first clue!
  • The festival has begun, but there is no need for jitters! You will find your first negg where they sell legendary critters…

Neoboards Font Guide

In this comprehensive guide, we’ll cover the basics of font creation, explain the essential terminology, walk you through the process step-by-step, and reveal some secret techniques to help you stand out. After reading this, you’ll have no excuse for a boring font! So, what are you waiting for? Let’s dive in!

Introduction

NeoFonts allow you to personalize your posts on the Neoboards, making them visually appealing and unique. By using NeoHTML tags, you can customize your font’s color, size, style, and more. This guide will equip you with the knowledge and tools to create stunning NeoFonts that will impress your fellow Neopians.

Glossary of Terms

Before we begin, let’s familiarize ourselves with some key terms:

  • Avatar: The image to the left of your Neoboard post.
  • Chat Smile: Small images used in posts to express emotions.
  • Font: The style and appearance of your text.
  • Hex Code: A six-digit code representing a specific color.
  • NeoHTML: Neopets’ version of HTML used for formatting Neoboard posts.
  • NeoTitle: The short phrase under your username on the Neoboards.
  • Siggy: Any material following your message on the Neoboards (also known as a “signature”).
  • Siggy Line: The line separating your message from your signature.
  • Siggy Pet: An image created using characters, usually found in a siggy.
  • Tags: Commands enclosed in brackets that affect the text within them.

NeoHTML Tags

NeoHTML tags are the building blocks of NeoFonts. Here’s a list of essential tags:

Font Extensions

These extensions are used within the [font] tag to modify the text:

c={Color Name or '# + Hex Code'}: Changes text color.

s={Size}: Changes text size.

f={font name}: Changes font style.

Neopets offers a variety of font styles to choose from:

Hex Code Chart

Hex codes allow you to use a wider range of colors. Remember to add # before the code for it to work. You can find hex code charts online or use image editing software to identify specific colors.

Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Choose Your Avatar and Colors

Select an avatar from your Chat Preferences. Each avatar has a set of colors associated with it. You can use the English names for common colors (e.g., Red, Blue) or find the corresponding hex codes using a hex code chart or a website like avatar.starried.net.

Step 2: Understand NeoHTML Tags

NeoHTML tags work in pairs to modify the text between them. For example, [b]This text will be bold[/b]. Make sure to use the correct opening and closing tags.

Step 3: Inserting Symbols

To add special symbols to your font, use a word processor like Microsoft Word. Go to “Insert” -> “Symbol” to browse and select the desired symbols. Then, copy and paste them into your font code.

Step 4A: Creating Pretext

Pretext appears before your main message. Create your pretext and use [br] or [p] tags to add spacing between it and your message.

Step 4B: Creating Borders

Combine pretext and your siggy to create borders around your message. Use symbols to create the border design. For example:

[center]╔═○═○═○═╗[br]NEOHTML[br]╚═○═○═○═╝[/center]

This will create a simple border around the word “NEOHTML”.

Step 5: Message Font

Customize the appearance of your main message using NeoHTML tags. Experiment with different font styles, colors, and sizes.

Step 6: Create Your Siggy

Combine the techniques from previous steps to create a unique siggy. Mix colors, fonts, and symbols to personalize your signature.

Step 7: Compacting Your Font

Neopets has character limits for font and siggy codes (120 characters each). If your code exceeds the limit, try to compact it by:

  • Removing unnecessary spaces.
  • Using English color names instead of hex codes when possible.
  • Removing redundant font tags.

Getting Rid of that Siggy Line/Adding Your Own

  • Remove the Siggy Line: Add a space () at the end of your font code and another space at the beginning of your siggy code.
  • Add a Custom Siggy Line: Use the following template: Font Code: PUT YOUR FONT CODE HERE [br][br]PUT YOUR SIGGY LINE HERE[ Siggy Code: ]PUT YOUR SIGGY HERE

Making Text Invisible

Warning: Using invisible text to hide content in your main message is a warnable offense. However, you can use it for stylistic purposes in your siggy.

Since Neopets has blocked #FFFFFF and “White”, use #FFFFFE to make text invisible.

Example: [font c=#FFFFFE]This text is invisible[/font]

Making Rainbow Fonts

To create a rainbow effect, break your message into smaller sections and apply different colors to each using NeoHTML tags.

Example:

[font c=#0000FF]Be[/font][font c=#0000EE]ho[/font][font c=#0000DD]ld[/font] [font c=#0000CC]th[/font][font c=#0000BB]e m[/font][font c=#0000FF]ag[/font]
