We've always known we have fantastic members here at Webkinz Insider, but nothing made that clearer than the amazing feat you all accomplished yesterday. In less than 12 hours all 12 of the new "Super Secret" recipez were solved by members of our forum! We were astonished, and because of that, we've decided to celebrate.

In honor of the 12 solved recipez, we are going to give away 12 trophies. To enter this contest, all you have to do is change your avatar to show a picture of a trophy, any trophy. That's it. No clicking, no puzzles, no hoops to jump through. Just change your avatar, and you're entered. At 6pm Eastern Time, on Wednesday, October 21st, 12 members with trophy avatars will be randomly selected to win the trophies. You do not need to be logged on to Webkinz Insider at that time to win.

The prizes for this contest are:

1 Go-Go Googles Trophy
3 Booger Gets An A Trophies
4 Wacky Zingoz 600 Trophies
4 Polar Plunge Trophies

Good Luck to Everyone!

Need help finding a trophy for your avatar? Check out WI's Picture Gallery HERE.

OR, check out the new selection of ready-made trophy avatars in your User Control Panel (User CP).

In response to the questions we have been getting:

As long as your avatar has a trophy somewhere in it, it counts. Your pet can be posing next to it, it can be sitting by itself, any way you want to do it. Non-Webkinz World trophies count too.
To pick the winners, we'll randomly select accounts one by one. If that person has a trophy in their avatar, they're a winner. If that person doesn't have a trophy in their avatar, we move on to the next person. We'll do this until we have twelve winners.

So if we just change our avatar we are entered to win? How are you going to be able to figure out how many people are using trophies as their avatars. And can we use a picture of our room that has trophies in it as our avatar (Like the one I am using right now) or do we have to use the ones shown in the WIGEV.

Sound like a great contest but I am just a little confused.
