That’s funny you suggested this. I was just telling my BFF the other day, how I wish we could buy sand/water tiles to make our own beach, lake, etc. Pool tiles would be cool too. Great suggestion! :)

@Raindrop, I’m sorry, but I don’t agree with you at all. Webkinz (Ganz) is a business. They have to make money somehow, or there will be no more Webkinz. First of all, not being able to send packages or trade items, are the restrictions placed on free accounts. There are still other activities available to free members. In fact, there are 18 games in the arcade, which can be played on free accounts. As a free member, you are allowed to take part in the collection events, and you receive the log-in prizes, and can spin the super wheel during most special events. I don’t know of many other companies that offer anything for free these days. I also don’t think that having to adopt one pet a year to renew a full account is unfair. There are stores that sell Lil’ Kinz for $2, and dollar stores that sell pets for $1. IMO, that is not a high price to pay once a year to renew a full account. As far as Deluxe Memberships are concerned, again, Ganz has to make money to keep Webkinz alive. A yearly membership is $45. That is $3.75 a month. Plus, with that, you receive an exclusive pet, 5,000 eStore points for signing up, and then $3,000 eStore points each month after that. Not to mention, the monthly gift boxes, monthly deluxe challenges, and other perks exclusive to deluxe members. Of course, not everyone can afford it, but it is still not an outrageous price. I, honestly, don’t think Webkinz (Ganz) is being unfair. They are trying to run a business. I think they’re especially fair to their free members.

It would be great if we could nominate people for the Social Media Star Award. Maybe give their name/username and the reason why we think they deserve to win.

Is there any way to make the Crystal Seas game not act so glitchy? It’s nearly impossible to play. I’ve tried playing it on three different computers. I don’t know how any child would be able to complete this part of the Deluxe Challenge on their own.

I really think that when it’s a holiday, and there’s a Super Wheel with special prizes to be won, that ALL of the prizes on the wheel should be SPECIAL! What a total disappointment to win Kinz Cash, or something that can be bought with wish tokens, or an item that you already have from buying Webkinz merchandise. Why can’t every prize on the wheel be something new, and/or something cool? I mean, the design people at Ganz are, obviously, very creative; I’m sure they could come up with some new prizes for the Super Wheel each time.

That would be pretty sweet! They could do a generic version, couldn’t they? Then they wouldn’t have to deal with the copyright issues…maybe? I mean that one rare theme (I forget the name) is basically supposed to be Alice in Wonderland. If they did do the Wizard of Oz, they would need munchkins, or maybe little munchkin statues. They could also represent the Emerald City by having a window (or wallpaper) with the Emerald City Castle in the distance. They could sell Glenda “the good witch’s” dress and wings. They could also bring back that Twister in a Pot to go with the theme. Ooh, ooh…and they could sell a vehicle based on the “Horse of a Different Color” that would change colors, and pull a carriage, like it does in the movie. Excellent idea, wbirkas! Only problem is, because it’s so cool, all of the items would probably cost estore points. (BTW…they do already have a “rainbow machine” in WW. It’s the grand prize from one of the Adventure Park Pet’s Quests–I think the Mud Hippo? But, that’s cool–it’s just one less thing the Webkinz peeps have to make to complete the theme. ;) )

Does anyone know how often new super beds are introduced? I already have all of the ones I really like, and I still have 4 super bed boxes sitting in my dock, waiting to be opened/chosen. Also, does anyone know how often new room themes are introduced in the W Shop (not the themes only available to purchase with estore points, but the ones that can be purchased with KC)? Thanks!

I didn’t read every page on this topic, so I’m sure some of these have already been suggested (especially the first), but…#1 Be able to place any item in any type of room. #2) Be able to apply your coupons to items that cost e-store points. #3) Make some of the rides and in-ground pools available to purchase with Kinz Cash. #4) Make, at least, a few pieces of furniture, wall paper, decorations, etc. to match each Super Bed, that can bought in the W Shop using Kinz Cash. #5) Add new Super Beds more frequently. #6) Change up the prizes more often on the Wheel of Wow, the Vacation Wheel, in the Wish Factory, and those which can be bought using Moneyz. #7) For Jumbleberry Fields, either reduce the number of berries it takes to fill a jar, or offer cooler prizes. OK, that’s all I have…for now. :)
