I'm excited by the Paintbrush!!! -- I'll have to check back when it's later in the day and more than 11 people have visited the advent calendar to see if i can pick up a couple on the cheap for later use.

you know, many the animations so far have been a bit mean - neopets playing tricks on each other etc. i dont like that :( they should be being merry and happy, not mean!

Aww...I bought a Christmas Paint Brush a month or so earlier since I thought my peophin would look better as emerald green with royalgirl gear. I should've waited. :oops:

Does anyone else wonder if the Paint Brush will be swapped out for another prize later in the day? I seem to recall something like that happening in years past.

didn't they give a Christmas PB last year too? *checks SDB* yep, they did... well, better than another neohome 2.0 item anyway.

I love the paintbrush. I already have a Christmas Ogrin. I dunno if I want to paint my starry lupe Christmas.

Eek, I still have the Christmas PB from last (or the year before.. I don't remember). Also, I forgot to check the calendar yesterday. There isn't an avatar dependent on collecting everyday, is there?

Aw man, I was considering selling my stashed away Christmas PBs about a week ago but decided against it. Now it's going to take forever for the price to get back up to where it was. :/

I think it's nice for them to add it to the advent calendar - newbies nearly crap themselves at the thought of a paint brush. :P And their pets can be festive! Whee~

I like getting one of these every year or two; I never do remember to sell them, though I know that the ideal time is pretty much always late November.

Might paint my lab rat Christmas this year--I know me, and I know I'm just going to let the brush gather dust in my SDB otherwise. (There is more than one there now.)

Aww drat, this is when I was going to sell the 8 extras I have from sniping them last year at less than 10k each. :P Still, p/b is good!

Avatar no, sidebar yes. It's been determined that at least ONE of the stipulations for the winter sidebar is that you collect the advent calendar prize every day.

I'd wait until after Christmas, the prices should go down. The supply is way up today, but so is the demand simply because the holiday is coming up. Wait until nobody's buying anymore, and the people who were hanging on to theirs get impatient and sell it.

Serious hoarders feel free to correct me, this has just been my personal observation / theory :)

That was... odd. O.o;;

I went to claim my Advent Calender Prizes and as per usual my Browser got stuck for a few seconds as the Animation began to load and started working again after it had loaded. I clicked on the button to claim my prizes and instead of the new page appearing with a list of my prizes... the previous page reloaded (the URL was for the page you usually get your items on though). O.o;; Layout, animation, Pet hub and all. I checked my inventory and found no items and checked my Neopoint total and found no extra Neopoints. -prods- I went back to the Advent Calender page and found that the button was still there... so I clicked on it once more. That time I actually got my items and Neopoints. -prods-

Has anyone else had this problem today? o_O I hope it's not my Browser, Neopets doesn't seem to like it at the moment. >.<
