I like the rainbow theme, but I don’t think that the chair should change color when rotated. It’s kind of a fun idea, but logistically it doesn’t quite work. You’d be out of luck if you wanted a certain color to face a different direction than the specific rotation.
I agree. I like the idea for colorful accents. It would be cute to have chairs that, when placed side by side, fit together to make a rainbow bench or couch.
The 4 chairs looked good and adding gray or all shades of blue to any theme would be good with me We really do need a new treetop /underwater too
I must admit that I was a little disappointed with the new theme ideas. None of them jumped out at me and said “Wow”. But thanks for continuing to add new themes! I happened to LOVE the “Volcano Island” concept drawing that was one of the choices for the Deluxe yearly membership prize. It would be wonderful to have an island/lagoon theme which featured Volcano Island with sea/ocean flooring and/or tiles.
I agree…all three themes felt sort of like “been there, done that”. I mean, how many rainbow themes have we had? How many futuristic/space themes? How many urban studio apartment themes? I want a theme that adds a lot of interactivity, because those themes are the most fun. Like, give us a working farm theme. I love this idea, because it combines my three favorite things in Webkinz World: seeds, dispensers, and recipes! Give us a nest we can click each day to get farm fresh eggs. Give us wheat seeds and oat seeds to go with the corn seeds so we can harvest grain. Give us a food mill (sort of like a one-ingredient stove) to grind our grain in so we can get flour or meal or rolled oats, which we can then use to make farm fresh recipes like whole wheat bread, corn bread, tortillas, noodles, oatmeal, granola bars, etc. Give us a beehive so we can harvest fresh honey. Give us more fruit and vegetable seeds so we can make jam and pie and salsa and things. Give us a milking stool so we can harvest fresh milk, and then give us machines (sort of like the grain mill I mentioned above) so we can turn the milk into cheese, butter, and yogurt, which we could then use to make different recipes. This would be super fun, and also super educational, because it will teach people where their food actually comes from.
Hey everyone I think the 3 themes are so cool. It will be hard to choose just one. My idea for a 4th Webkinz room theme would be a mobile home/trailer park theme. Mobile home parks are part of real life and it would be neat to see a set of indoor and outdoor items that could be created. For example a building kit that would look like a trailer house. Single or double wide. It would be cool to see walls kind of like the older style brown paneling. And windows with shades that can go up and down. I’d love to see some speed limit signs and residential street tiles and maybe a couple different address number signs for the streets like Ladybug lane. It would be neat to have the street signs named after pets like the ladybug for example. I know my idea might seem silly but it’s something I’ve wanted to see created for a long time.
My choice is…#1, #2 and #3! Let’s make all of them!!! Then add another Treetop theme for spring!!!
A new Underwater and/or Treetop theme would be nice. I love the Underwater themes that we have but would like a new one or two. We also have only the one Treetop theme and as much as I love it, I would like to have some others to choose from for different pets that I have. I was thinking that something along the lines of the Oak Tree indoor theme for an outdoor theme for my squirrel.
I like theme 1 . It looks like the chair floats and is blue so matches with evil wizard items . I have a black bat to adopt that will love this theme ! But PLEASE add bathtub treadmill fridges for Heart Care as well as bed tables chairs sofas the usual items. HOW ABOUT EYES that can be added to a wall that glow changable so they can be small , big and or change shape ;) round or evil looking like the trees at halloween. They would look cool with black and wizard with crystal !!
Of the 3 items shown and they Theme chairs I choose #1 !
Great! I love new themes, and this looks like gangs of fun, whichever one wins! My idea is for a new Underwater theme, we have so few of them. I’d like to see the Kingdom of Atlantis brought to life in Webkinz World. The theme would include awesome wall paper and a line of furnishings that look both ancient & stylish. Plus marine plants like kelp trees, and pillars, both whole & broken. You could design the room as a crumbling archaeological site or a living kingdom with pets holding Court. It would be a fantastic place for all the water pets, and for the new axolotl to hang out!
Yes, YES!!!! All of this! I think that many of the players should be hired as part-time design consultants! ;)
LOL Bekinz8, that would be awesome! We’re developing our skills here in-game!
Room themes I would like to see….a Farm theme with barn, animal plush to put around the farm, barn fences , silo’s etc….next would love to see an underwater theme..with Octopus chairs and a eel light, would love to see a shark bed with a cute starfish wall light….NEXT how about a FUN with TOOLS theme..would love to see a workbench, and then a cute saw horse night stand, lets have hammer wall hangings and cute wrench lamps… Another boy theme is the Sport theme , I know we have had some mixed ones but would love to see it refreshed..boys need themes too :)
OOOooo… Fun with Tools theme… I hope that the designers are enjoying all of these suggestions as much as I am!
I love the tool theme, what a great idea! We do need more themes for the boy pets ;)
Aw man I picked the wrong day to not bring earbuds. Can’t wait to listen to this after class! I’ll have to think of room theme ideas too. My favorite room themes are indoors with modern furniture (although I don’t think that that’s what a majority of players like). Maybe I’ll sketch a few drawings if I have time
Can’t wait to see your sketches!!!
