Hi Anonymous!

What does each category (Event, Retired, Games, etc.) mean?

Here is a mini-table of what each avatar category is composed of :)

Game Avatars involving games, self requested quests and the Wheels.	Clickable Avatars that are easily awarded by clicking a link.
Random Avatars that are randomly awarded while completing a task.	Retired Avatars that are no longer available at all.
Seasonal Avatars that are only available on a specific day/part of the year.	Event Avatars that are associated with a unique plot, major event, or war.
Battledome Avatars that involve the Battledome.	Item Avatars that involve having or using a certain item or type of item.
Pet Avatars that require owning a certain pet.	Petpet Avatars that require having an equipped petpet.
Miscellaneous Avatars that do not fit into the above categories.

What is a custom list, and how do I use one?

A custom list is a "shortcut" list of avatars you're specifically interested in. For example, you might want to put all the game avatars you need in a custom list called "Needed Game Avs" so that way, when you have some free time, you can pull up that list and try one or two from there (instead of digging through the entire list of Need (Available) avatars). Another example would be putting a few avatars in a list called "Short Term Goals" and use that as a quick list to view your goals.

To set up a custom list, click on the "Create a List" option and follow those instructions. Then use the checkboxes to mark down which avatars you want your new list to show, and name your list. After having done that, your list should show up as a link under Need (Unavailable) and Have, and you can use it like a normal list :)

What does the Entire List option show?

The entire list (as you might have guessed) shows the entire list of ALL secret avatars on Neopets. This includes retired avatars, and also shows all of the avatars in sets (for example, the Entire List option will show all four of the Maraquan/Pirate war avatars, even though it is not humanly possible to get all four).

What does the Need (Available) list show?

This list shows the avatars you don't have that are possible to get. Think of it as your list of goals ;) Retired avatars are not shown here, and in the special case of the Meerouladen/Heermeedjet avatar, if you mark down one of them has 'Have', then the other will automatically be removed from this list and go onto the Unavailable list, because it is impossible to get both of them.

What does the Need (Unavailable) list show?

This list shows the avatars you don't have but you cannot get (retired, etc.). You can still move avatars from this list to the "Have" list if you got them before (or are newly updating your checklist). However, since all of the avatars on this list are retired or (in the case of a set like the war avatars) you can only get one of them, you should use the Available list instead to show the avatars that you can try to get to add to your collection.

What does the Have list show?

This shows all the avatars you've marked down as having :) If you made a mistake, you can easily remove an avatar from this list by checking the "Remove" button and hitting Update at the bottom, and the avatar will return to the Need (Available) list if you can still get it, or the Need (Unavailable) list if it is retired :)

How do I sort lists?

At the top of the list, you have the following options to sort from:
