Other item codes for TeenNick.com

Some of the unavailable, or sold out items in the Avatar Mall on TeenNick.com but first:
Codes 101: 
-Codes are just item numbers. Every item in the mall has an item number attached to it so that the computers know what to add to your closet, and how much to subtract from your cred amount.
-On some browsers you can see codes in the status bar when your mouse hovers over the buy button. It'll say "javascript:buyAvatarItem(1085);" the number in the parenthesis is the item number aka code.
-Using codes in the URL doesn't make the items free. You can still be charged creds. Expect to pay at least the supposed price (a.k.a. the price displayed on the sold out item in the mall) some items may cost more creds than they say they cost - particularly some of the more recent 200_ glasses.
-Using codes in the URL is essentially the same as buying the item, just without using the javascript in the new mall.
-As with buying anything in the mall, items may not show up instantly when using codes. Give it a little time, log out, then back in, if it's still not showing up make sure nothing was left out of the URL, there were no spaces etc. (You can leave a comment for me, but given that I can't see what happened on your computer, I probably won't be able to be much help.)
-You don't need codes to buy items that can also be bought using the "Buy" button - these items have duplicates in the mall that are still available the regular way. However using codes may be cheaper than "buying" some of these items the normal way, therefore I included them in the list.

What do I do with these number code thingys?

1) While logged into your TeenNick.com account - go to the Avatar Mall (you don't have to do this every time, but humor me.)

2) Copy this URL : http://www.the-n.com/games/avMall/avMall_buy.php?item=
and put the item number (see list below) after the "=" as in;
http://www.the-n.com/games/avMall/avMall_buy.php?item=1038

3) Click the Enter/Return key. It's going to look like the page just refreshes on you, but if you go to your Avatar Closet, the items will be there. (Provided the right code was entered, and you had enough creds to buy the items.)

Twitter Account

I think my temporary incessant twittering through the Melrose Place premiere annoyed a few of my followers. Haha.  (I just realized the lack of emoticons on Blogger....) Anywho, if there is any reader out there that wants to see my incessant twitter-wisdom through tonight's TV (Obama speech, Glee premiere, then DVR-ed Top Model) You can find my Twitter here!

Getting the Role Player items for your avatar on TeenNick.com - Basic

 NOTE: Supposedly The-N/TeenNick will attach prices to these items sometimes - buy with caution. 

1) While logged into your TeenNick.com account - go to the Avatar Mall (you don't have to do this every time, but humor me.)

2) Copy this URL : http://www.the-n.com/games/avMall/avMall_buy.php?item=
and put the item number (see list below) after the "=" as in;
http://www.the-n.com/games/avMall/avMall_buy.php?item=1038

3) Click the Enter/Return key. It's going to look like the page just refreshes on you, but if you go to your Avatar Closet, the items will be there. Note that they all will show up in either Accessories or Backgrounds - even if the item is hair or clothing. But this does make layering fun.

Here's a photographic list of the items.

* These items are available in the Avatar Mall currently, and they're formatted to work with the full body avatars. But they most likely cost creds. All of the Role Player items are currently free, but other than the backgrounds, they won't show up correctly on the full body avatars.  

This method with the item numbers can be used for items that are marked as "Sold Out!" in the Avatar Mall - but you account will still be charged for the creds the item originally cost.

This info is current as of 9/2/2009 - I can't say that this will always work or that the items will always be free. Basically, I'm saying this works for now, but my crystal ball is broken (That's what he said!) and if you're looking at this a year from now and it's not working - don't blame me. I don't have all the answers, and I don't control what The-N does with it's Avatar Mall. If something changes, feel free to leave me a comment and let me know. I'll try to keep the entry updated.

Potential New TV Series on The-N/Teen Nick

(Gah! I still have a hard time referring to it by anything but The-N!)
Debroah Gregory  - Author of the Cheetah Girls books - her more recent series "The Catwalk" is being "optioned" by Teen Nick for a TV series.  (Which I would guess means they're considering it a serious option.)
(Announced on her site here. And in a local news interview.)
Personally, I'm not sure about this. I want new series for the channel, and I haven't read The Catwalk books, but I have a hard time imagining hearing the words "Purrlicious" and "Feline Fatale" on a TV show that's meant to be taken seriously. I'm not seeing how the channel's "depicting real teens" aspect ties in with a bunch of teens in the fashion world that attach feline allusions to fashion terminology. Wouldn't it be better suited for Nickelodeon or the Disney channel?

How do I get Creds on TeenNick.com?

     First off - read the FAQ, there's all kind of info in there that'll answer most of your questions.
Creds are based on activeness. The more pages you go through the more creds you get. (And the more hits Teen Nick gets on their ads - see how it's set up? Spending time on the site, seeing lots of ads = money for the site and = more creds for you)
Rank is a good way to get creds fast, because you're going through a lot of pages fast. (Just make sure you let the page load all the way before you click on the next thing, since creds tend to load last.) You can also keep the volume on your computer turned up - there's a chimey "Ssshhwing!" noise every time creds come up - it's a good way to keep from missing them.
Other ways to get creds include:
+ Games in screening parties (The host has to buy them, look for parties with "games" in the title, don't beg for games though, it annoys people and can get you kicked out by the host. Also, if you play the "The Best" game, where people vote for the best dressed, funniest etc., it's nice to vote for the host first, so that they can earn some of their creds back.) **Screening Parties are only available for users in the U.S. because TeenNick legally can't distribute their videos to viewers outside the U.S. *** Screening Parties have been glitching recently and Not giving users the creds they earn, and sometimes even causing them to lose creds. While they can normally be a good source of creds - it might be best to avoid them till they're fixed.
+ The Daily Cred Dispenser on the Community page, the odd of winning are low, but it's an option
+ Contests in the @TeenNick blog (Try to regularly read the N'Sider, there's a link on the home page they do contests every few weeks)
+ Reporting stuff that breaks the rules (2 creds for every reported post/comment that breaks the rules, but if you report something that doesn't have anything wrong with it, you'll lose 1 cred.)
This can be a really good source of creds - but you have to report responsibly. Reporting stuff that doesn't break the rules too much, can get your account suspended. (I think it's good to start out with stuff that's obviously against the site rules, like cred scams and cybering.) Familiarize yourself with the posting rules (which you should really do anyway,) so that you know what you're doing. There's also a "Should I Report This or What?" quiz that can be helpful.
+ The Cred Fairy - The Cred Fairy gives a "buttload" of creds to users that make really super awesome posts and generally make the site and message boards a cooler place. It's really rare to get visits from the cred fairy - it's best to just try to be a helpful & respectful user and get creds the regular ways. Also begging for creds (from the cred fairy or in general) does not work and really only annoys people.
+ Normal activeness browsing the message boards, taking quizzes, shopping in the Avi mall looking at peoples' profiles all contribute to being active, so you can earn creds while doing any of these things.

How to make your Avatar Invisible on Teennick.com

2. Go to the second page of avi bodies
3. Click on every male body on that page - In order 17.Boy Body to 30.Boy Body
4. Click on 21. Boy Body
5. Choose a hairstyle - now the avi body should disappear

How do I get Role Player items for my Avatar on TeenNick.com?

***NOTE: It seems that The-N/TeenNick occasionally attaches prices to some of these, if not all of the items. They don't always have prices attached to them, but keep an eye on your cred amount and be prepared to spend some creds to get the items. (Possibly a lot of creds.) It seems like 90% of the time the items are free, just beware that sometimes they're not.****


So there's been this thing on the online community of TeenNick.com. Users have appeared to get some of the unreleased items from Role Player for their avatars. Some of the older users claim it was a glitch when the mall changed (Which I can see as legit.) Then lots of other users surfaced that had the items (many with accounts that were created after the glitch) and lots of them were generally total assholes about how they got the items.
(Cause this is a life and death matter and being a jerk always makes you look cool.)

Anyway - the trick to getting the items has.... come into my knowledge.... and since the whole secrecy thing annoyed the hell out of me, I thought, why not make the method available to everyone? (Or at least everyone that finds my blog and reads this particular entry.)so without further ado - (Ha! Ado!)

1) While logged into your TeenNick.com account - go to the Avatar Mall (you don't have to do this every time, but humor me.)

2) Copy this URL : http://www.the-n.com/games/avMall/avMall_buy.php?item=
and put the item number (see list below) after the "=" as in;
http://www.the-n.com/games/avMall/avMall_buy.php?item=1038

3) Click the Enter/Return key. It's going to look like the page just refreshes on you, but if you go to your Avatar Closet, the items will be there. Note that they may show up in different categories - clothing may show up in the Accessories or Tops section.

Here's a photographic list of the items.

* These items are available in the Avatar Mall currently, and they're formatted to work with the full body avatars. But they most likely cost creds. All of the Role Player items are currently free, but other than the backgrounds, they won't show up correctly on the full body avatars.  

This method with the item numbers can be used for items that are marked as "Sold Out!" in the Avatar Mall - but you account will still be charged for the creds the item originally cost.

If something doesn't show up:
Check the URL you used, if that seems OK - it may be that there is a price attached to the item that is higher than the amount of creds you have. Ex. If you have 54 creds and the guitar has a hidden cost of 100 creds - it will not show up in your closet. It will if you have enough creds to buy the item - it will show up and the cost will be subtracted from your total.

This info is current as of 9/2/2009 - I can't say that this will always work or that the items will always be free. Basically, I'm saying this works for now, but my crystal ball is broken (That's what he said!) and if you're looking at this a year from now and it's not working - don't blame me. I don't have all the answers, and I don't control what The-N/Teen Nick does with it's Avatar Mall. If something changes, feel free to leave me a comment and let me know.
