Every character that is 1 year old gets a birthday present (minpets)... afaik you can only view them in explorable areas (doubleclick on the pet to make it appear/disappear).

Search next time. Every day this is asked and answered over and over and over and over. Get the picture?

Sounds like a bug, though I suspect the minipet still works. Double-click the wood icon in an explorable area.

EDIT: Why can't anyone read the OP correctly? :s

The problem is that his minipet icon in his inventory window is the icon for a wood plank.

Try going outside of town and activating it and then putting it away. Then try logging out and then back in the game. Then try contacting A-Net and making them aware of the bug. Until it's fixed, stash it in a part of your inventory where you know it'll be safe(r) - maybe the top left or lower right slot.

He didnt say that... he says it looks like a "lil wood icon". May be a bad eyes problem

Not that this matter (I dont think) but lately I have picked items up that look like wood planks in my inventory. But when Ilog out and then come back they look like normal items that I picked up like shields or swords. I thought it was just a glitch, but it has happened to me a few times over the last few days

Sounds sort of like a lag issue

I have never experienced this problem before in over 3400 hours of logged on time.

... perhaps a corrupted gw.dat file, or a flaw in one of the updates... just a guess.

1 person is an isolated incident, but 2 people are experiencing the exact same problem.

need more info from more sources, they always have random bugs that are unrelated to... anything that they do.
