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 love the new changes. Change is often hard, and it takes time to get used to. I am bothered by one thing, and that is the removal of the pet backgrounds and the ability to change dock colors. This was a perk that I paid for when I purchased my Deluxe membership. Are they going to substitute something else in place of it?

    the dock just looks WAY to squashed.

  4. seamojo says:

    One concern, how long will it be until all the problems will be solved? You still are having issues and have not solved them. Will you do all of us a favor? Please, be sure to have everything in working order before setting it in motion. All of us will be happy to have it in working order. Thanks.

    CONFUSING!! but I guess we will get used to it

    I would like to know what a presentable is. Gennelle, can you explain?

  7. slk says:

    One question – is the dock automatically being loaded going to bog down logging in?? Will it slow us down??? I’m worried about that part of the new dock.

  8. slk says:

    I think I may actually like the new dock. We’ll have to wait and see – for hoarders like me I think it will be beneficial.

    I have an issue with one of my pets, when i go to play with them it LOGS ME OUT everytime!!! Major issues still playing games and logging in and out. Sure wish you guys would work out the issues before starting new ones. Which i expect will come with a whole new set of tecnical issues..
