How to make a Gallery

For your Neopets gallery backgrounds. Copy the code of the backgrounds that you want (you can find the code below the background image) 2. Go to neopets.com and login (skip this if you already are) 3. Click on your neopoints in the right hand corner. Click on the 'item gallery' link right above your items. Click on the link that says. Gallery Spotlight. Submit your gallery to the Gallery Spotlight! - Today's Gallery Spotlight - Gallery Name:haunted room Owner: zombifies Description: It is said that lost spirits often attach themselves to inanimate objects in an attempt to ground themselves to this world.

Noticeboard Ad Banners More coming soon. This gallery is dedicated to Baelia, the Grey Faerie. 'A dark faerie tricked her, stealing her wings and her name'( TCG card description). To learn more about this faerie click here Layout by kissamus & royaladybug.com.

To make your own gallery you can click here and then pay the small sum of neopoints it takes to start your own gallery. The screenies below explain this more clearly.
This is the page that appears the first time you click on the Gallery link. If you want to go ahead and create a gallery, click on the here link at that page.
This is the main page where you can edit the appearence of the gallery. You can name your gallery, and choose what area it comes from, and also add a description which will contain your layout. Read more about the layout of a gallery in the Layout Section
If you would like one, you can select a Gallery keeper here and give them a name plus something to say. You can, however, tick the box saying: Do NOT display Gallery Keeper to visitors. There is also a box saying Make gallery Keeper picture's background transparent, which means that there will not be a white box around the gallery keeper, instead the gallery keeper will blend in with the layout/background.
Now you are ready to create your gallery. Below the Gallery Keeper part of the page there is a button saying Create Gallery. Click it and your gallery has been created.

Putting items in your Gallery

You can use your gallery by adding items from your inventory into there by clicking on them manually and using the drop down list to select

Neopets Gallery Layouts Premade

add to gallery. Alternatively for more items, you can use Quick Stock.
Quick Stock allows lots of items to be added, which is so much quicker than clicking on an item in your inventory one by once.

Creating Categories

If you have different sorts of items, you can create categories. These help you organise your items neatly into separate sections that people can easily click on to look at. You can create Categories by clicking here. You can then name your category to whatever you would like. You can create up to twenty different categories.
You name the category the way you want, then click Add, and there you have a category.
Click back to here and then you can organise your items into categories by using the drop down list, or a quicker way would be to use Quick Categorise.
Depending on what sort of gallery you are doing, you can create ranges of categories to suit the big picture. There could be categories of colour, name and the sort of object it is. For instance, you may own a plushie gallery, for which you may want to create a category for basic coloured plushies, and a category for speckled plushies. Or, you own a food gallery and you create a category for spooky food, and a category for gross food. etc. Of course you can also use the categories to put different galleries on your account that really have little to do with eachother. This way you can have a plants gallery, and an orange items gallery in one. There are many different ideas to choose from.

Upgrading your Gallery

It is important to upgrade your gallery, as this allows you to put more items in. Every time you upgrade, you can add an additional 5 items to your gallery. Each upgrade costs an extra 200 neopoints each time you upgrade. This means that your second upgrade will cost 400np, the third will cost 600np, fourth 800np, fifth 1000np etc. If you are wanting to create a large gallery, you'll soon be paying upgrade costs going into the thousands for every additional 5 items.
Visit Sunnyneo's Gallery Cost Calculator so you can see how much you will be spending.
To upgrade your gallery go to this page and at the bottom there the option to upgrade. Click on it and there are five more spaces to fill for your gallery.

Creating Ranks

Ranking is putting your items in the order you want them to. You can start ranking your items by clicking this link. You can also rank your items within each category.
This is ranking by any random order. However there are lots of ways you can rank your items:

Colour! Nothing looks better than seeing lines of organised colours from blue to yellow to pink to green and so on. Alphabetically! This can look good if you have items that begin with almost all the letters of the alphabet. The groups of items! By putting all the books together, and all the plushies together, it does not look so messy and jumbled up. By release date! Oldest items go first, newest at the bottom. This is the way your safety deposit box is set up. By price! Most expensive items at the top to make an impression, cheaper items at the bottom. This could work well in a small gallery. Anything else you can think of. It's your gallery, so you can determine how you want to rank your items.

You can also combine some of these options. How about blue books all in Alphabetical order, followed by green books all in alphabetical order? Organising your items like this makes your gallery look neater, and clearer too.

Choosing your Idea

This is probably the hardest part for most people. Think of the different types of items, for example: Foods, Drinks, Neopets, Weapons and many more. Try not to pick anything too large at the moment, as this will make it harder for you. Now narrow it down further. If you decided on a Neopets theme, pick an item that would be in your gallery and enter it into the Shopwizard on gallery search to see how many galleries there are which may be similar to yours. Then you will know how many other people share the same idea as you!
If you are having a lot of trouble picking, think of things that really interest you. Perhaps you love a certain type of petpet? Or you could base a gallery off of an avatar you really like? For example, the Symol avatar brings to mind a gallery of Symols.
Themed galleries tend to be more unique. Check out this gallery for an example. These are the galleries that catch your attention, make you smile, make you laugh, make you remember them. Instead of Neopets, or items, or basing it off of an avatar, choose a subject you really like.
These are just ideas, you will probably take your time in deciding what to choose. Choose something that you want to do and not something anyone else wants you to. After all, you must be original and eyecatching. (See Gallery Spotlight Section).

Collecting the Items

Once you have your theme you can start collecting the items for your gallery. www.neoitems.net has a great item database where you can type in what type of items you are searching for and a whole list will come up. Here you can look and see which of the items that fit in your theme you want to collect, unless you want to take the challenge and collect all of them.
You can find the buyable items on the Shop Wizard where you type the name in and it comes up. Make sure to put Identical to my Phrase unless you are simply searching for a range of the items. There is also the Super Shop Wizard for Premium members which searches the cheapest items immediately and is very helpful to use. SunnyNeo has a great Neopets Premium guide.
Once you have most of the buyable items for your gallery you can move on to the unbuyable items which are located at the Trading Post/Auctions. Remember you can only offer up to 800k in pure neopoints on the trading post, so you'll have to buy easy to sell items for the more expensive items in your gallery. The limit on auctions is 20,000,000nps.It is easier to start with the cheaper items though.
Know what to look for with your items. Also check the description of items to see if they have the theme you are collecting in there. If you have a Bori gallery, there may also be some items that do not have a name with the word 'bori' in it, but there may be bori's in the description or picture of the item.
The New Features page is always a good way to hunt down the new items when they are released to see if any match your gallery. Keep track of these, because you will also need them in your gallery. Always remember though, newly released items are often very expensive, within the first few months after release the price will drop like a rock. Best to wait a little while before you buy these items.
There is also the nice touch of adding a wishlist onto one of your pet's petpages for your gallery as a way to keep up to date on what you want to buy, and also so other users can see. SunnyNeo has a fantastic premade wishlist petpage that you can use to show all of the items you will be wanting. Of course you can also design your own wishlist to match your theme.Once you have bought an item on your wishlist remember to remove it so you don't end up buying the same item twice! You can also put the average prices of items on it for buying purposes, although this is not necessary.

Setting Goals and Limits

Once you have collected most of the cheaper items in your collection, it makes it easier to set goals on what items you are going to buy next. If you are doing a spotted gallery, you can make goals of the more expensive items, for example a Spotted Paint Brush, then save up and buy, never losing sight of the goal.

HOWEVER! Be sure to set a limit on how much you will spend on an item, if you don't do this you will find yourself splurging and spending way more than you intended on something. It is also nice to set a limit of what amount of neopoints you won't let your back account drop below. That way you always have some nps, it really helps to keep yourself balanced. You also never know when you will find the deal of a lifetime on an item you have been wanting. Think about it, if you just spend all of your neopoints, you wont have any neopoints left to buy the great deal because you just spent them on another item that you didn't even want as bad! If you have a million neopoints, set yourself so you can only spend 250,000 neopoints of it! That way there's still 750,000 neopoints left over. You can also try to invest some of your neopoints so you can use it to earn more neopoints. Think of the stockmarket or restocking, both require you to use some of your neopoints before you see the results.

Remember to check the price!

Remember when buying an item to check the price! A /lot/ of people on the Trading Post lie about the prices, and after you buy you search the item up on the Shop Wizard and realise it's only 7k when you've paid 700k! Ask at the Trading/Auctions Neoboard for a price if you're not sure. Also search on the Shop Wizard before you buy something.
It may also be useful to keep an eye on the auctions, what sells and what does not? Often the lots at the tradingpost ask a very high price for an item, while items priced below this price are not even selling at auctions. If you have an idea of what prices the items are selling at, you can use this information while negotiating a price with a seller at the trading post. If they are stubborn and insist on the overpriced price, buy it at the auctions instead. Or neomail the owner of an auction that just went unsold, perhaps they will give you a discount. Never just buy an item for the price people are asking, always to a little background searching first. You may end up saving yourself thousands or even millions of neopoints.

Earning the Neopoints for your Gallery

Yes, there has to be some hard work in getting the perfect gallery, and that is earning the neopoints to buy the items that need to go in there! But don't worry, there are lots of ways to make the neopoints you need with a little practice, determination and hard work.

Games! Play the games you find easiest three times a day, and also sponser games are a great way to get neopoints with hardly any effort at all. Also look at SunnyNeo's Game Guides to see if they can help you get a better score. Sniping! Shop Wizard Sniping and Auction Sniping is very common and can make you lots of Neopoints. The idea is that you buy items at a low price and sell them for more. It's easiest to specialise in certain items that you will try to snipe, and keep practicing. Know the value of the items you are going to be sniping or you may end up losing neopoints rather than earning them. Restocking! Sunnyneo has a great restocking guide that will teach you all you need to know. This earns the most neopoints so becoming good at this will help you in the long run. Trading Post! This is similar to shop wizard and auction sniping. Invest in certain items which are being sold at low prices, and resell them for more. This may take some patience, especially with hard to sell items you may have to wait months before you get a good offer. Stock Market! All you have to remember is buy at 15, sell for more, never less. Set yourself a limit at which you want to sell, this could be at 30, as then you have doubled your investment. Many people also sell at a higher point, such as 60. This will require patience to wait for a stock to rise to 60, but it if does you'll have made lots of money. If you buy the maximum of 1000 stocks each day, you will earn the most as it rises, but you can buy less too, however then your profits will be less as well. Random Events! If you are very lucky, you may get a brilliant Random Event in which you will recieve a very expensive item. Sunnyneo has a great Random Event guide. It will explain all of the different sorts of random events you can get, some good, some bad. You can sell the items you get from the Random Event and make instant profit - because you didn't pay a thing in the first place! However, don't pin all of your hopes on this happening. You have to work for your neopoints too. Dailies! Your dailies play a big part in getting some neopoints too. Check the SunnyNeo Dailies page for a complete list. You can try these everyday (as they are called dailies) for free and you will make profit! Site Events! If Neopets is holding a plot, or another site event such as the Altador Cup, Daily Dare, Springtime Celebration etc. is running, be sure to participate. By participating in these events you will earn many items, which you can then sell to make a profit. You will regret it if you decide not to participate. Whenever a site event is happening, SunnyNeo will have a cover of it, so be sure to read our News and Information daily.

These tips will help you become well on the way to earning plenty of neopoints for your gallery.

Hard to find Items

There are lots of item that are seemingly impossible to find. Retired and very expensive items have this problem. However, do not give up trying to search for them. Here are some ways to help find them:

Check the Shop Wizard often. If these are hard to find they may rarely appear here and can get sniped! Check the Trading Post. From time to time the item you are looking for may show up. However, and this is where the price check section comes in, be careful of what you are paying. Just because there are no others on the Trading Post does not mean that it is the price they are selling for. Restock the items! Yes, they will probably be harder to restock than some more common items, but if you practise you may just succeed in restocking it. Check the Auctions. The Auction limit unlike the trading post is 20mil, so the very expensive items may be selling in here and you can bid if you have enough neopoints. Keep an eye on the Trading / Auctions Neoboard. Occasionally owners of rare items get tired of them and want to sell them, ou may get lucky and find the item of your dreams for sale. There is also the method of searching the galleries and sending a polite neomail to the owner of the item, asking whether or not they'd be willing to sell for a reasonable price. This has to be a last resort for you, as a lot of people may take it the wrong way. You can also ask people at the neoboards if they have the item you require in their Safety Deposit Box and whether or not you can buy it from them.

The Layout

The layout makes your gallery look pretty and if you find a matching one that's great! Help making a layout can be found SunnyNeo's HTML Tutorial or CSS Codes page. But if you are not very html/css savvy you can also choose to use a custom layout made by a friend, or one of our own fabulous Premade Layouts. Gallery's using a premade SunnyNeo layout can ven win the gallery spotlight! You can see some examples: Winner #303, Winner #267 and Winner #300.
You are also allowed to alter the coding of our premade layouts to create your own, under the condition that you credit us for the coding. Gallery's with credit to SunnyNeo for the coding have also won the gallery spotlight, see for instance Winner #327 who wrote: 'A big thanks goes to sunnyneo.com for coding help. The mentioned website also worked as a good inspiration source for this particular layout.'. There are many such examples to be found among gallery spotlight winners.
When choosing or making a layout make sure that:

The colours don't clash. It's related to the theme of your gallery. It works in all of the browsers. (Firefox, Internet Explorer, etc). Everything is easy to read. There are no extra useless things in it that have nothing to do with your gallery, like banners and advertisements for guilds or your shop. There is no music, as it has a high chance of annoying people.

If you match all of the pointers above your layout should be ready. You can always ask your friends, or people at the neoboards for advice and comments. Maybe they will hav some useful tips for you.

The Gallery Spotlight

With so many people on Neopets, there are bound to be A LOT of galleries out there. If you are trying to win the Gallery Spotlight, or just want your gallery to stand out from the rest, it is going to have to be unique. Here are three of the easiest ways to make your gallery stand out.
First off, you could choose something totally random that no-one else would have thought of, like you could have every one syllable item in there or something else to that effect.
Another way is to have a generic theme, but add a lot of items that link to that theme, but not directly. Say you did a Kau Themed gallery; you could add grass items, black and white items, hay items etc.
Lastly, you could just not have a theme and throw anything that catches your eye in there. A lot of people do this, but with everyone's unique tastes, yours is bound to be different.
The Gallery Spotlight is located here and it's where if you win it you can show off your obviously amazing gallery. Here are some tips to help you win the gallery spotlight:

When using a layout, make sure it is compatible in all browsers, for example Firefox or Internet Explorer and make sure it can be read clearly. Make sure the colours match with each other and include straightforward images. Custom layouts help, but will not stop you from winning. The previous section shows a few examples of people who have won using SunnyNeo's premade layouts. Do not use chatspeak when writing about your gallery, and check for spelling errors. Make sure all of the items in the categories go well together and are ranked properly. You don't want a Blue Ixi Plushie in the Blue Book section! Put a lot of effort into your gallery. Two items are not going to win you the spotlight. Add as much information as you can about the categories of items in the description part of your gallery. This will show TNT that you know what's what. Ask at the Neoboards for tips from other people about your gallery and see what they think of it. This can help you realise what people like and don't like about the things you have done.

Your best bet would be to go through some previous gallery spotlight winners to see what they've done and how they've described their gallery to neopets upon entering. You will get an idea of what tnt is looking for in a winner. However, don't let this lead you too much, be original!
Now all you've got to do is wait and see whether your gallery will be announced as this week's gallery spotlight winner. Good luck!
☼If you entered your gallery for the Gallery Spotlight and didn't win that week, do you have to enter again, or does the last time you entered your gallery still count for the next week? ~nuggler_1_1
Please don't resubmit your gallery unless you've made changes to your gallery artwork or coding. We keep the submissions in our database, so if we'd like to spotlight it, we'll find it. :)

Introduction:
On Neopets, many people decorate their userlookup, pet lookups, petpages, and shop/gallery with layouts coded in html/css. These layouts tell people about you and your pets. By simply decorating them, you will blend in with others on Neopets and make yourself seem more legit and trustworthy. This is great if you want to buy neopoints!

Premade Neopets Gallery Layouts

General Rules:
1. Do not remove the credit if you are using someone else's layout, this will get you iced.
2. Do not post pictures of yourself or do anything against TNT's rules. (Bad language, fake age shields, etc.)
3. Do not link your side accounts to your main (vice-versa).
4. Do not hide any information with HTML/CSS. It looks supicious and is against the rules.

UserLookup:
(My Account>Control Panel>Modify Account Information)

The main part of your account, this is what people see when they click on your name or search you. Many people have layouts, so it would be wise to get one just to blend in.

Tips:
-Always write a little bit about yourself. Whether it be real or fake, this little bit of information can help you look legit.
-You can add pictures of dream pets, avatars, goals, whatever works for you.
-If you are using an Auto Buyer or Score Sender, it might also be good to you write that you like restocking and playing games.

Pet Lookups:
(My Account>Control Panel>Neopet Description)

Many people forget about these but they really do make your account look legit and trustworthy. Everytime, someone searches or clicks on your pet, they will see your pet lookup. When you add a description or story about your pet, it shows others that you care about your pet.

Tips:
-Add a description for the pet such as a story, traits, hobbies, etc.
-If the pet is illegit, put that you found it in the pound.
-If you bought a legit pet, you might want to put that you adopted it from someone or traded for it.
(It would look very suspicous if someone noticed the pet on another's person account a week ago, and you said you just painted it yesterday)
-If you plan to sell the pet soon, put 'UFA: Applications Closed' somewhere.

Petpages:
(My Account>Control Panel>Edit Pet Page)

Not many people will view these unless you tell them what you have on your petages. However, if you do decide to make one or two, it will
make your account look very good.

Tips:
-Easy Ideas: Wishlist, Lab Ray Log, Screenies, Drawings (for artists)
-Hard Ideas: Directory, Graphics, Guides
-You can also make a button that links to your petpage and post it on your userlookup.

Shop/Gallery:
(Shops>Your Shop>Create/Edit Your Shop)

Yes, it does look nice if you decorate your shop, but it's not too important. However, having a gallery with a nice layout and a nice theme,
makes you look legit and trustworthy.

Tips:
-Do not go overboard with your shop, it's not too important.
-If you choose to do a gallery, look at layouts first and base your theme on a layout you like. That way, you don't have to go look for a layout.
-Pick an affordable but not too cheap theme.
-Put up a wishlist if you would like.
