Well now, this sure was fun! Stay tuned to Webkinz Newz for more exciting announcements!
Take care, Kinzville!
The new dock is the worst update EVER! I can’t find anything. I wish it had been more like the mobile app for the clothes – divided by item type NOT alphabetical. HUGE mistake. I am holding off from buying ANYTHING, as well as decorating and changing clothes, until this is fixed to something reasonable.
I forgot to mention that all my daily food delivery items are not giving any food! What happened?
I am happy with most of the changes you made yesterday. BUT :) the bottom row where Az New Star Food Clothes Furniture Decorations. Everything that is in where it should be in – BUT everything is Mixed Around and I know where nothing is. Why did you move everything around ? ? ? ?
I totally agree with everything said!!! Today the changes are horrible. We have 10 accounts and are so disappointed in the service. I can not put anything in the rooms, can’t get food from trees and plants, the dock idea is not helpful. I have TV’s, rides , fridge with jumbleberries are empty since Jumbleberries contest. Too many things still not fixed from original change over to Webkinz X. Maybe you were too quick to change before knowing if things would still work. What a disappointment to any new users paying good cash for items already known not to work. Why are these still being sold? We started our accounts in 2008. It was a lot of fun. Too many things have changed and not for the better. Old saying “It it’s not broke don’t fix it” Patience is running thin and it appears not just for us.
Going to keep my comment simple. The new dock system is awful and very difficult to navigate.
Why make the dock LESS organized? It was already alphabetical, all this update did was take away some of the sub-categories. Impossible to find clothing and objects now. Hopefully all these comments convince you to change it back!!
Okay, I just dressed several of my pets in seconds. It was super easy and quick. It cannot get better than this. OK, maybe. If you could type in letters and it took you to that section but honestly this works amazingly. I love it. Thank you!!!!!!
I also want to comment on the new rooms for the pets. What a great idea to get a choice. The deluxe prizes this month are amazing too. Might be cool sometime if it is possible, that if we rotate it, maybe the colour could change like those floor tiles. It might match our room a little better. Not complaining, I have enough dishes to do and dishwasher is welcome in any colour.
Right now I must say that I LOVE the new dock. From what I can see, it is a big improvement. I have been trying to dress my pets and to remove clothes from my dock and from what I can see this will make it so much easier to find similar things. The last few days I was feeling the task was over whelming and today I feel so happy! I really didn’t like scrolling thru all the shoes, hats, etc to find an outfit. You have made it easier to do this. I will try it out and see. Thank you for this help.
oh my gosh !!! the changes to the dock are HORRIBLE !!! i wanted a rug; went to the tab; i had to go thru everything to find a rug. if i wanted wallpaper; i want the wallpapers all together. please please change it back
Whew! I was going to comment about the new dock, but I don’t think I can add anything that hasn’t already been said. Horrible, so difficult to find things. I like the addition from awhile back of the “new” section, that is helpful. But Please put things back the way they were. If you want to work on something innovative….. how about door removal….
