House Layout
If you go to RuneHQ, they have a program for designing your house, in order to make sure that all of your rooms are facing the right way before you build it.

pre-paid cards
Pre-paid cards sound great, but they have one serious drawback. If you do not cancel your membership before your 30 days run out you could end up with a banned character. When a person's membership comes up for renewel and Jagex is not able to renew with your current payu option, your character will end up temporarily banned. This will result in several days of emails with Jagex in order to get your account reactivated.

dragon axe really worth 1.6mill??
Dragon axe will also prove useful if you do the Jade Vine mini game, to train your farming and slayer skill.

Big Sharks
I got one swordy barehanded, and the other with a standard harpoon. I'm almost positive that the fishing method doesn't matter.

fletching 99
If fletching is too boring, try combining it with watching tv, reading a book or some other secondary event. If you're positive that you want to download a bot program, then try searching with your favorite internet search engine. Make sure that you have a good anti virus program first though.

Gear for Slayer/Training
You look pretty prepared to me. My only suggestion would be to get an obby shield or a rune defender.

Halloween Event HELP
You saw the posting for the Tip.It website Halloween event. There will be a Halloween event on Runescape as well, which has not yet been released.

Penguin hunting
I have to agree. I've found that the chat is almost always full on Wednesdays, and the updates on the penguin locations can come quite frequently. People will also trap the penguins in one spot for you, making it much easier. I checked last week around 3am, when 35000 people were on runescape, and there were only 3 users hunting penguins on the chat then. If Wednesdays are a problem, Thursdays are still quite active.

understanding prayer bonus
Could someone explain exactly what a prayer bonus gets me (ie. my Zammy Book gives me +5 prayer). I can't figure out of it means my prayer drains slower, or if I gain more points back when I drink a prayer potion.

I Died and I Got New Hair?
Hair glitches, usually resulting in baldness, has been happening for about the last six months. The barber in Falador no longer charges for his services, if you would like to get your hair changed back. He's located at the very west of the city, just north of the bank.

Directing Me...
There are many thieving guides in the Archives of Wisdom. However there are very few options for low level thieving. You have to pickpocket men (or women) until level 5. At level 5 you could switch to the food carts in the Ardy marketplace. I'd recommend this, since it will offset the damage you take from having your thieving fail. At level 10 you could switch to farmers, but I would recommend sticking with the food carts all the way to level 20, when the silk carts become available. Your only other option is to play the Sorceress's Garden mini game. It gives decent experience. I would recommend alternating between the 2 methods, so that training thieving does not become overly boring.

Summoning shards - How to get them?
Buying pouches on the GE to trade for shards will cost you about 23 gold per shard.
-
Starting Anew
I'd start training your fishing and cooking. This would allow you to have food to support your combat training.
-
Yews
I am assuming that you are not a member, due to your lack of bank room and choice of chopping location. With that in mind, you would probably make more experience per hour chopping and burning willow. I would recommend you try the willow trees just south of Port Sarim, which are rarely used, and have long straightaways for burning.

Blue Dragon Speed Hunting (Help?)
I too would recommend switching from blue to green dragons. In my opinion the chaos tunnels are a considerably better choice. They are close to the Edgeville bank, which allows you to quickly drop off your bones and hides. If you attack the dragons near the portal, you can always portal out if the baby black dragons turn on you. You could also team up with someone to defeat the dragons. If you are doing blues, I recommend the ones by the ogre city. Unless your agility is over 70, they are quicker to get at than wandering through the Taverly Dungeon, past the lesser demons. The exit is quite close to Yanille too.

defender of varrock help needed
Here's my suggestion: Go to the Runescape Homepage. Under the Game Guide Tab there is Quest Help. Go look up the quest and see what Runescape tells you to do next.
-
Spotted a STAR?
Forsakenmage is a very nice chat for general use, but I would heavily recommend "star find" chat for star hunting. I'm pretty sure that its the biggest star finding chat.

problem with slayer tasks
Hellhounds do not count as dogs. In the city of Ardy there are guard dogs just to the east of the church. They are easy to defeat, either level 44 or 14. They hit for minimal damage. They can even be safely ranged from behind a fence.
-
How many Iron Bars?
12 351 iron ore needed. Alternatively, 8421 steel bars could be made and smithed.
-
Ranging Help
Yaks are the popular choice for range training. Alternatively, why not try slayer quests using a bow. Slayer is a slow skill to raise, so its always a good idea to train it whenever possible.
-
MTK
I would recommend not going back every day. The amount of resources you would gain would be very minimal to the amount of time spent popping back to Misc. I go every third day which I think is far more common than the average person. There are several very good guides in the mini-game forum about how to invest. You should probably skim them, so you can decide which make the most sense for your character.

Bandos Platebody
I'm combat level 108, and still using a rune platebody. I'm in desperate need of a armor body upgrade. Is Bandos the best option for me? I'm not uber wealthy, but I can afford Bandos. I should be able to summon Bunyips later this month, so my initial plan of buying Guthans no longer seems like the smartest investment. Any helpful advice?
-
Of Spirit Trees and Crystal Seeds
I have my tree on Brimhaven. The fairy ring takes you to Misc and the cabbage ring takes you very close to the Port Saram tree. I had multiple seeds and tried them at the different locations to see which one I liked best. I liked Brimhaven best since it put me very close to the fruit tree spot, and made it easier to do a farming run.

body talismans?
City and palace guards drop them quite often.

Bank
I have to agree with Vleademir. People can give you advice on how they organize their bank accounts, but everyone plays it differently. I only have 4 tabs- one for frequently used items, one for farming, a herblore tab and a tab for all the items that I want to keep that I will rarely or never use again but still want to keep. I would recommend taking a good look at the things you use and figure out the best way to divide your bank up.
