I just went to log into Webkinz World and saw a new picture on the login screen. I clicked it to see more information. Ganz will be celebrating Webkinz World's 3rd anniversary in style.
Here it is, right from the website -

Awhile back I reported on some of the upcoming 2008 Webkinz. Well, someone put together this neat compilation video showcasing those Webkinz and I thought you guys and gals might like it.
The game of Checkers in Webkinz World is one of the easiest way to make some Kinz Cash fast. You can make 60 Kinz Cash in 60 seconds when you learn the easy technique.
It is pretty simple and isn't a cheat. First, work fast to get past the opponent's defense and get a King. Second, build up a 2 line defense on your side that the computer can't get past. Finally, just take your King and move back and forth until the computer runs out of moves. When done correctly, each game takes about 1 minute.
Watch the video below to see a Webkinz Checkers game in under 60 seconds.
Ganz performed some maintenance last night in Webkinz World which resulted in them adding some new features.
The first update I noticed was they changed the login screen at Webkinz.com. As you can see from the picture below it is now filled with Easter Bunnies playing and searching for eggs in anticipation of Easter.
Second, there was a new game added to Webkinz World, Tropical Troubles.
"If you like Bananza, you're going to LOVE Tropical Troubles! Our latest Arcade game features the same adventurous monkey, still on the lookout for some yummy bananas. Use the arrow keys to guide the monkey from branch to branch and pick up all of the bananas on your way. Be sure to avoid the critters - you can knock some of them out by jiggling the pineapples and coconuts, but be careful you don't get knocked out too! Visit the Arcade and play today!"
"The rest of the Pretty in Pink theme has arrived in the W Shop and it's delightfully perfect! If you've been working on a gorgeous room of your own, you need the rest of this theme to make it complete! Pick up the rest of the Pretty in Pink theme today!"
Finally, be on the lookout for floating Easter Eggs.
"Keep your eyes on the skies in Webkinz World - you might just see a floating egg! If you see an egg, click on it and you'll get a pile of chocolate eggs for your pet to enjoy! It's time to celebrate spring in Webkinz World!"
There is a new advertisement in Webkinz World reminding you to Celebrate Spring on March 23rd.
You must login on March 23rd to receive your Easter gift. If you don't, you have to wait until next easter to get a gift. Some of the past Easter gifts were White Bunny Ears, Chocolate Easter Eggs, and Marshmallow Bunnies.
It turns out that Ganz was premature when they announced the Lil' Kinz Leopard is retiring. They now say it was a mistake and the Lil' Kinz Leopard is NOT retiring!
