Default GW Minipet Wordfind!

Once again, I must apologise for the recent lack of wordfinds due to insane amounts of schoolwork. However, I was inspired by the second birthday minipets and added this new previously unlisted wordfind!

These are being put in the activites section so look for them there when this thread is buried under hundreds of new ones.

If by some chance you missed any of my previous wordfinds, then I'm posting them here aswell. Please leave them clear of discussion (the old ones, not this one), as I will not be looking over the old threads anymore. If you have any questions about these old threads then feel free to PM me.

GW Wordfind #1
GW Wordfind #2
GW Wordfind #3
GW Wordfind #4
GW Wintersday Wordfind
GW Wordfind #5
GW Wordfind #6

Anyway, here are some general rules and other stuff you should know about these wordfinds:

1) Each week I will also a random country which you can look for if you want to. It's not listed, just to let you know. PLEASE, please, do not post it for everyone to see! If you want to get any clues or anything on where it is or what country it is then PM me.

2) It's 40 rows down and AZ across (52(did it in excel)), meaning there are 2080 boxes.

3) Please enjoy, it takes a while to fill in about 1300 empty boxes with random letters.

4) You might notice that all the words are Minipets, that’s because they are.

5) Make sure that when you find a word, that the word is that and not part of another word.

6) Look forward to more in the series such as...

GW Wordfind #7 - FoW, UW, and other Core areas
GW Wordfind #8 - Key NPC's
GW Wordfind #9 - Pets
GW Wordfind #10 - Shing Jea Island
GW Wordfind #11 - Kaineng City
GW Wordfind #12 - Jade Sea
GW Wordfind #13 - Echovald Forest

7) To complete the wordfind, open the JPEG, copy it into paint and use those tools to mark words. You can try to print it if you want but I'm not sure how well it would come out.

8) Remember, these are just for your enjoyment. So... enjoy them!! Post if you like it or not.

Looks like fun but I do have one suggestion that might help make them look a little better and more uniform. Center the text and make the squares into actual squares. Even better would be to get rid of the lines.

All in all, a really cool idea. How did I miss the earlier ones

Don't like the lines huh?

I'll see what I can do... 5 mins later...

Harder said than done mate, I tried the following things;

1st attempt;
Opened up the JPEG saved on my hard drive
Used the paint bucket and tried to clear out the black border. Only a small bit was removed.
Thought for a second
Blamed the quality drop ffrom the JPEG conversion
Scrapped it and tried again

2nd attempt;
Opened wordfind in excel, recopied and pasted into MS Paint
Retried paint bucket, the black borders were removed...
And discovered that some of the letters snag the bottom of the border and are half removed... no good
Forgot to center the letters, tried and hoped it would fix snagging problem
It didn't
Scrapped it and realised that the only way to do this is to go to every box(all2080 of them) and cut them off from the snagged edges.

2080 boxes! A bit much for a somewhat unneccessary edit. Tbh, I'm not really sure that I like, or care that much, for the black borders to be removed...

OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG! I'm such an idiot! Why the hell did I not just change the font color.... Sorry if you don't like the green color, I tried to make it as close to black as I could. Anyway, if you like the new format, please post so I can either update the old ones or just do the new ones the same way. Even if you don't like these wordfinds, your input is appreciated.

EDIT: Oops, I'm an idiot once again and forgot the attachment Sorry for the delay.
