    Thankyou Webkinz for all you have done. I am sure this has been an overwhelming process. Again thanks

    The vampiress hat and shoes, while showing up in my docks, still will not show up on my pets, on any of my 9 accounts. Anyone else having this problem, or only me? I saw the hat on a pet in Daisy’s Diner, the day before yesterday. Also, cannot use house map feature, on my orchardwall account, and my decade dragon from that same account, still “missing”. Dragon has been unusable for over a month, now. Sooo tired of all this, ganz.

    Unfortunately, it looks like your updates broke the site.

    I have a quick question, since it seems like some people have issues and other people don’t. What kind of computer or browser do you think best supports Webkinz? And say I have windows, but I don’t have the latest version, would that have something to do with Webkinz not working? I’m pretty sure I still have Windows 7.

    • Sally Webkinz says:

      When updates happen, there can sometimes be a conflict between the version that is on your computer (your cache) and the version that you log in to. When it looks for something in your cache that’s not there, it can cause the blue screen. It’s not related to your operating system or your browser — but you will need to clear the cache to fix it. We’re working on a fix to avoid having to do that in the future.

    Any idea Sally when the accounts will be working? Maybe it’s just mine.

    one other thing is my charming rat psi isn’t showing up so maybe when you have time it would be nice to fix that because I know u guys have a lot of stuff already and on the share center when logged in it doesn’t have the submit image button and I’m kinda disappointed

  8. seamojo says:

    This is great, but it would be nice if you could be able to log on. Seems as if they correct one problem another exists. Disappointing!!!

    I’m having so much trouble logging in/staying logged in D:
