The annual CTW page turned out fabulous, and is exactly what I had in mind! I would say yes, go ahead and include the grand prizes for the fudge/soda, cookies, and white eggs. Do you have any ideas on how to differentiate the aforementioned prizes from the "regular" prizes? Since Ganz has started offering strictly unique prizes in them instead of a mix of "regular" and unique prizes, I feel like there needs to be something, but I'm not sure. I'd love your input! --choircutie 18:54, 23 March 2017 (UTC)


I wasn't able to duplicate the issue, but I've been uploading the needed images as I find them. I went ahead and created a new section for these new packs, as they are different than the mini themes in that these award one random theme item per box, whereas the others contain multiple items. Sticking to established pages is a good place to start, and a good way to get a feel for wiki editing. If you ever find yourself with any coding over your head, just give me a shout and I'll come help! Don't be afraid to make mistakes, either. Even if you accidentally clear a page I can undo it! I will say, though, that the annual Click to Win Page needs some work if you'd like to try your hand at it! --choircutie 21:20, 22 March 2017 (UTC)

Hmm, that's an interesting issue. I'll check to see if I can duplicate the error here momentarily. I'll also look over what needs to be done, and find a project or two for you. Since you said you don't have a much wiki experience I might start you on something simpler. :) --choircutie 19:16, 22 March 2017 (UTC)

Just wanted to stop by and say THANK YOU for all of your hard work uploading images!!! It is a HUUUUUGE help that is greatly appreciated!!!--choircutie 18:48, 22 March 2017 (UTC)

Hi there Loopy!! I have your PM sitting in my WI inbox, and would LOVE your help!! Uploading the images from the maintenance updates would be a HUGE help, and you are welcoem to get to work as you have time. At this time I'm not in a position to share how to get the item names, as it's not Ganz approved, and I've earn myself a spot on their naughty list for it essentially, haha. As you're going to be doing a fair amount of uploading, here's a link to the wiki's multi-uploader, where you can upload 20 images at a time! --choircutie 20:30, 21 March 2017 (UTC)

Instructions on getting needed images:

Hey there! I noticed that you've been uploading a ton of needed images, but noticed that some are the lower quality images from WI's wiki. Here are instructions on how to get the quality images that are 120x120 with transparent backgrounds, as is the standard for the Picture Guide! :) --choircutie 17:23, 24 March 2017 (UTC)

  • First, here is the image link
  • The number you see in the URL is the item's number in the Webkinz Database.
  • To find this number use this page.
  • This is what I do for all images, get the pictures using the Item Number and save them.
  • Once I have the images saved to my computer, I use the Multi Upload Tool to upload them to the WPG.
  • In my experience, only 20 images will upload at one time.
  • Not much to it, really. Though sometimes the wiki can be finicky, and a page won't show uploaded images unless you edit the page, and then hit save changes.
  • Don't hesitate to let me know if you have any questions!
