ok so this is my first time listing to podkinz and i have a queston for you mike and gennelle how did podkinz get started? from your newest fan cheyabella
Thanks for listening! Hmm..how did Podkinz start. Well doing a podcast about Webkinz was something I had been thinking about doing for a while. Gennelle was super interested in it too and we discussed some ideas of what we would do for it. Then one day in a meeting with the Webkinz Creative Director (our boss), Gennelle mentioned the idea to him! He thought it was a cool idea and said we could give it a shot haha. We originally planned on only doing one every 3 weeks (when we update Webkinz), but due to its popularity we’ve started doing it twice per update!
WOW that’s cool Mike thanks for typing back and i cant wait for the next Podkinz to come out! from cheyabella ;)
oh and also why isn’t there a clothing dye maching that would be so cool! just i would let ya know Mike and Gennelle . :)
Mike, could you do a video on how to get stuff for your webkinz account other than just playing Webkinz? I know you can go to Webkinz Newz or Ganz Parent Club and play floaty clickys, but are there any other ways that you can get furniture, clothing or other items for you Webkinz account?
That would be a great idea for the next Podkinz when we talk about how you can get items from Amazing World. We can definitely talk about other places to get items as well! Thanks for the idea. :)
Thanks! I always keep an eye out for places that have Webkinz items for your account. I have found cute clothes and furniture before, I love finding those things. I really appreciate your help, thank you for letting me know, I’m sure others would want to as well!
Mike, what happened to the shirt designer thingy where you create a shirt and if you are deluxe, you can get the actual shirt you created sent to your house? This is the third time I am deluxe, I didn’t get a shirt, but I wan to create one. I have been doing webkinz for 4 years and they took away the shirt thing in 2011. Why did the close it?
I’m not entirely sure, I wasn’t on the Webkinz team in 2011. But I would imagine it was quite a bit of work to maintain and the team wanted to focus their attention on making the game. I can ask around next week haha. :)
Probably because people didn’t all get the same shirt so it was not fair.
I used to love the t-shirt designer. I never actually ordered one but they were fun to design. Plus you could see your pets in any clothing.
Hi Mike Webkinz and Gennelle_Webkinz! I have an Amazing World account, and have received prizes in my Webkinz World account from it. I think the prizes are bright and colorful, and my favorite is the Airship. I have a question though: in Amazing World, is there a way to stop Queen Vexa? I haven’t yet, and I was wondering if updates like that are ever made. Thanks!
i don’t play amazing world, last time i tried to play it, it made everything lag, but i have a few amazing world items through the trading room.
Just visited your Instagram page! So cool! My favorite picture is of Mike and Gennelle in the recording booth haha :)
Awesome! THanks!
How do you take a picture of your screen??
up on your keyboard by F12 there is a print screen button click it, get into paint, click the select button (the thing you drag to delete stuff), left click and clik paste
Thank you so much!
Do you know where it is on a Mac laptop?
redgreen’s method is great! I have another method that works on my computer. All you have to do is press Ctrl (Control), Alt, and Print Screen at the same time. Then go to Paint and paste. (You can paste by pressing Ctrl and V at the same time.)
Such a cute room I love it how did you get all that stuff?????????????????????????????????????????????????
