- Contestants MUST upload their work to the Design A Webkinz Gallery on the GanzWorld Share Center. Never uploaded to the ShareCenter before? Don’t worry! It’s easy. Just watch this video to see how it’s done!
- You can use any kind of art supplies that you want — except computer software (yes, this is a change from the Design a Dog Contest last year). Want to use markers, pencil crayons, crayons, or other art materials? Go for it!
- You don’t NEED to include ideas for this pet’s adoption gifts (PSI & PSF), but feel free to draw them if you want.
- We can’t accept submissions with company logos or sports team emblems.
- Please make sure you save your images as a jpg, gif, or png.
Happy designing and good luck!
BIG NEWZ [Feb. 12, 10:30AM] — We’ve extended the deadline until Tuesday, February 17 at 10AM (EST), so you have more time to submit entries!

YYYYYYYAAAAAYYYY THANKS GANZ I LOVE THESE CONTESTS TOTALLY ENTERING! I DID DESIGN A DOG BUT DID NOT WIN SO I WILL UP MY GAME THIS TIME :)
wow! I wish I had a printer :)
Where can i find a WebkinzNewz email??? BECAUSE! i posted ALL of my webkinz pets art for this contest and today i got a email saying Were sorry ur thing didn’t get posted reason : Inapropriate image!!! WHAT It was a bear with honey on it THAT i made all of my drawings were not posted because they were said to be inappropriate! but trust me it isnt why would I make a inappropriate webkinz HELP
It may have not been approved due to it being made with computer/app software or without a template, the two most common reasons for a design to not be approved. Do either of those apply?
Hey Gennelle, I’m enjoying looking at all the submissions so far, but I have spotted at least 10-12 designs that used computer software… Are these going to count?
No they won’t. Sorry about that – must have gotten past our moderators. If you seen one, please click Report and they can re-assess it.
I just submitted my two entries! Well, I didn’t just submit them, I submitted them on Sunday. I’m hoping to make some more entries soon! Anyways, good luck to everyone!!! Right now, I have my fingers crossed on winning! ;D
Michael, thank you sooo much!
I wish I could enter but we don’t have a printer. I think it is fair that we can use computer software, because if one person does then we all can! Does the apps on a tablet count as computer software? Just curios! Thx
Yes, apps count as computer software.
Ok thanks, I guess I cant do this contest then, It depends,
I keep going to the share center and there aren’t any pictures up besides the template page. Will we be able to see everyone’s pictures?
I would love to enter this contest, but as I do not own a printer or scanner, I guess I am excluded. :( WHY can we not use computer software this time around? Soooooo upset. :`(
