xD Hey Caesar. Welcome to Res. I'm not good with HTML, beside the usual bold, italic, underline, break, and image inserting. >.>; However, I can help you with the Tu making and such. 8D
Games and Quests: Clicking games on the left on the navigation bar will bring you to a page with multiple categories. None of them are flash, but some games you can just play a certain number of times a day for Tu, such as Random Tu, Egg Count, and others where you can possibly find items, like the Twuntie Cay. Quests, which are in a whole seperate category, are usually the fastest Tu-making ones (though not the most). You can make a pretty good profit from continuously playing, receiving Tu from egg quest (all levels reward Tu), food/toy quest (first two levels reward Tu, the last two reward items), and the Resurrection Quest is for doing if you need a resurrection potion. Half of them are seasonal quests, and you can click on them to see which ones are open.
Dying Pets (D8): Pets can die from hunger. The requirements for it to die is that it has to be on the dying hunger status for 15 days on your profile, and then it gets moved to the graveyard. After it's been in the graveyard unressurected for 15 days, it loses its name and becomes nameless, so when you revive it, you can pick out a new name. While the resurrection potion may say they are all revived in natural colors, that was in version 1, and this is Res v2, so it revives it as the color it died in.
Planetary Restrictions: You made your character when you began (I think...if not, look under the navigation bar at the today box and create one), and chose your planet. Each planet has an area only citizens of that place can go to, except for Reiflem which has no special area, lol. Scrians have access to the Freaky Toy Factory (all non-user run shops are located on shop lists on the navigation bar), Atquatians the Staff Memoriabilia Shop, and Relcorians the Fishing Hole game in the games section under the luck category. You can't change your planet except with a very rare and retired item called Planet Mirrors, but I believe there are very few in the hands of active users, so. >>;
Commissions: You can set up writing, art, and graphic commissions on here too. There's a forum for them- while there's no seperate forum for writing commissions, people just put them in the single writing forums. You can also put your own works there for critiquing and such. The general art area is for really anything but commissions (there are two other threads for that). Sometimes you can set up a thread in the general art area for pricing help and art aid. After that you may set up a thread in the art commission or writing commission forums with your prices and examples. Depending on how people like your work, you can make a good profit off commissions.
Avatars & Forum Preferences: The ones that are listed in the first group in your preferences are default avatars and don't count in your avatar count. A lot of avatars that are in the avatar guide isn't implemented into V2 (such as the Broccoli and Think Pink one). Some are retired, others require viewing a certain item in your inventory, and others doing some other things which I'm too lazy to list and you're supposed to find out. XD You can also change your signature there too, putting in pictures (though nothing that's wider than about 445, as if it's a little more than that then it stretches the board, sometimes rendering things unreadable and getting everyone mad lol).
Chatbox: Peoples. ;D I like glomping people. XD Basic rules are here;

Updated rules for the chatbox have been listed in an update, so go down until you see the italicized post. That one is the updated rules, which includes how you cannot use any language other than English and forbids spamming.

Credit Shop: You can get credits with Tu (at a rate of 100k per 1 credit) or real money (10 cents per 1 credit). Items in the credit shop can be traded among users once they've bought it from the credit shop. The current Credit Shop pet is the Aerix, whose eggs sell in groups of 3 for 200 credits each. Retired Credit Shop items can only be bought from other users. The past Credit Shop pets are the Liyure, Kioka, and Omni, whose eggs can only be bought from users and the existing pets are sold in rancher shops. They are usually very expensive.
Hatching your pet: You can hatch a pet by clicking explore on the side of the navigation bar and going to any planet you please. In the hatchery (also located on the nav. bar), there's a link at the top called Creatu List which lists all the colors Creatu come in and what planet they're found on. On whatever planet you choose, you can refresh to look for eggs. Seasonal eggs can only be found during the weeks of certain months (we just had our Easero eggs released for a week, but now they're back to 0% rarity, making them unfindable). Certain eggs are rarer than others. After incubating them (100% incubation is best, as it guarantees the hatch won't fail which can happen if it's under 100), you can hatch them and see what color it turns out. The Creatu List lists the colors starting from natural (the most common color) and up. Colors from natural to Albino are all hatchable, while those beyond that, if any, are dye kit colors, which I'll explain later. As it goes from natural to Albino, the colors get rarer and more expensive. You can name your pet any name that's untaken- you can check the availability of a name at the hatching page or the 'search pets' page on the navigation bar.
Changing your pet: Name tags change an already hatched pet's name (bought in Credit Shop for 100 credits for a pack of 4), Natural Colored Jelly Beans change your pet to any hatchable color besides natural and the color it is (getting Albino is just as rare as hatching one), Gender Pendants change the gender, and dye kits dye the pet, unless it doesn't come in that color. You can check the Creatu List to see if a pet is available in any dye kit colors. Dye kits come from the Black Market (a shop in the shop lists that you can only go to a limited amount of times a day), and are usually at least 2 mil. The cheapest is Amber, which if you're lucky, can buy for around 1.8 mil. There are certain pets that come in no colors and will either get revamped or have their colors released in the future, such as Goibas and Murrens. You can also use morphing potions (which don't come in seasonals or credit shops), but they are rare and usually are over 15 million. They change your pet's species while keeping it the same color.
Stock market: A rather nice way of making Tu, you can invest Tu in stocks which are low and sell them when they're high. Stocks change every day at 12 AM and 12 PM, and you have a limit of exchanging 50,000 stocks a day. It may take a while, but you can make a good profit depending on the type of stock you invest in. I don't use them much, so I can't reccomend which ones really do well. I do know HEA, TOY, SWE, and BEV are good ones though.
Merchants and Ranchers: Merchants can hatch 1 pet a day and have 15 pets on their profile at a time, along with running a merchant shop that sells items. Ranchers can hatch 3 pets a day, have a higher chance of hatching a rare color, hold 25 pets on their profile, and have a rancher shop that sells pets. Merchants usually make more profit, but ranchers get to hatch more, so it's really your opinion over which is better. To make a merchant shop, click the house icon at the top with a green ribbon, and the one with a blue ribbon to make a rancher. Be sure to check shop prices- to buy items or check the prices in merchant shops, type the name of the item or a word in teh name in the top search bar, though make sure it's switched to user shops. For ranchers, click search pets on the nav. bar, sort by price, make the location rancher, put in the required fields that you need (you don't need to fill in all of them; I only put in the color or species), and in the price boxes, put in 1 in the first one but leave the other one blank. When you search, you should get the cheapest pet on the search, which you can use to judge how to price your own.
Parties: Er, they're sort of like groups- like the equivalent of guides on Neo. -shot for reference- 8D; I run one actually, lol. You can access the list of parties by clicking the party hat icon at the top. There's two pages. Parties have their own forum, and you can only access the forums of another party you're not in if a) there's a glitch, which there seems to be, or b) the other party is in an alliance with the current party you're in. Lots of contests and giveaways could occur, and you can donate items/Tu to party banks for party funding. It costs 25 million Tu and 100 credits to make your own party.
Training: Though the battling system isn't up yet, people still train for preparation when it opens up and for trying to beat the highscores for the power, defense, etc. stats. You can use a pet's HP to train once a day, though with as many pets as you like. If you strain a pet too much during training, it will require a super healing potion for it to heal (which stocks in the pharmacy). Or, if you're already out of HP, it's probably not worth healing as the next day it will automatically heal.
Applying for staff: I believe the basic requirements are to be playing for at least 6 months. Some positions require you to be 16, others 18, but for writers and artists, there will be exceptions made. How to apply is part of the test to applying, lol. ^_^ Staff are colored-coded; on the user's online list and chatbox, this is what colors mean:
Black: Normal user
Dark green: Artist
Light green: Staff trainee
Blue: Support staff
Red: Admin/coder
Gold/orange: Developer
