Webkinz X Revealed: The New Dock!

 

 

Ella McWoof here! With your help, I’ve sniffed out some important information about the X-citing new project, Webkinz X!

 

Now, in my EXCLUSIVE SCOOP, here’s more information straight from the TOP SECRET documents!

 

 

Along with a new look and a new way to play, like the Pet Care Heart, Family Score, or Pet Requests, Webkinz X will also include a new Dock with an easier way to organize your items!

 

Here’s a look at what your Dock will look like with the NEW Webkinz!

NEW DOCK

 

 

 

 

We have removed the dropdown menu that was used before for sorting and added tabs instead. Within each of these tabs your items will now be grouped together first by item type, and then alphabetically within those types.

 

Here is exactly how your new Dock of items will be grouped and organized:

 

  • AZ: All
  • Special: Gift Boxes, Coins, Tokens, Coupons
  • Food: Food, Garden Seeds
  • Clothing: Helmets, Hats, Glasses, Shirts, Pants, Skirts, Dresses, Shoes, Belts
  • Furniture: Furniture
  • Decorations: Wallpapers, Floors, Decoration, Presentable, Carpets, In-Room Games, Webkinz Studio Characters, Webkinz Studio Backgrounds

 

We have also included a tab for Pet Actions; however at launch Pet Actions won’t be available right away. These will be added back into the Dock in one of our updates coming soon.

 

Once we have added Pet Actions back to the new Dock, we will also work on a search function for a future update, to help you better locate your items.

 

Some of the other updates to the new Dock include:

 

  • No need to “Get Item From Storage”; items will now load dynamically on demand
  • No Dock color customization or pet portrait background
  • KinzCash and eStore Points have been moved to the top center of the screen
  • KinzTime, Cell Phone, Message Center and KinzPost have all been moved to the top right corner of the screen
  • HELP button has been moved to the new Options menu

 

We have also removed the Map of Kinzville items from the Dock and moved them to their own separate Dock which only appears when you visit the map. At launch, this separate Map Stuff Dock won’t allow you to sell your map decorations back to the WShop.

 

 

 

 

 

Stay tuned to my column on Wednesday, July 1st and I’ll reveal MORE about the exciting secret project, Webkinz X!

    I’m sorry to say but I’m not a big fan so far. I’ll give it a try though before I say whether I like it or not.

    It look like the ap not very excited more worried and seriously bummed. I use my actions all the time. I don’t think you should change this until you’re actually ready. Please consider waiting til you are able to do it WITH are pet actions. Please.

    I love that now your dock has tabs! That is so much easier. I don’t like how there is no color personalization but it’s not that terrible. I also love how I don’t have to get items from storage. That’s always such a hassle because I have tons of items. Problem solved! I can’t wait for Webkinz X! #Xcited

    Pet background customization should stay! It is a deluxe perk that we pay for!

    Ella, your detective work resulted in lots of chatting amongst my webkinz pets. They like the new dock, yet, they are hoping the scroll bar remains. Plus, they would welcome a short cut to the Webkinz Stadium with a notification for all to see when a competition begins. They feel more webkinz pets would participate if a reminder was sent all around “Webkinz World”.
