Informal Poll: Holiday Winky?

Informal Poll: Holiday Winky?

A little bit of variety for our friendly little mascot?

After the incredible success of my call for community Winky submissions, I got to thinking of how maybe our little friend needs a little bit more variety throughout the year.  In the past, I've been told that Winky changed his appearance for some holidays and seasons. 

Do you think we should bring back the special Winky graphics for different days and times of the year?

Here are some of the variations we were thinking up
  • Thanksgiving
  • Christmas
  • Valentines Day
  • Easter
  • St. Patrick's Day
  • 4th of July
  • Summer
  • Winter
  • Spring
  • Fall
  • Olympic
What do you think?  Should we do it?  Or do you like the logo up top to stay static through the year?

Hell yeah..we only live once right??? Saying "we only live once" is be cause with life's time to expend,I thinks its a good idea to get people in the spirits of our cultures and enjoy and drench them selves in great moods in hard times like these, were our fellow americans are fighting in wars and thier is a an epidemic of debt across the nation and the planet as well....people need a security blanket sometimes and see that thier is something to be happy about::

our independance, freedom

Christ's b-day

a day were lepricons get drunk

a day of mass genocide for anything that Gobbles(i love thanksgiving!) and to be Thankful FOR WHAT WE DO HAVE!
and so many more days for people to be american or something else in spirit

you get the point!

I think that customizing the Winky Icon is an excellent way of keeping the page dynamic and relevant!

I think there should be a a suited up astronaut Chameleon for the days that Nasa luanches manned missions either to the I.S.S or any mission outside of our atmosphere. They deserve a lot of credit for their work. For me its still that felling of "wow" everytime I think about how we came so far as to go to space!

There seem to be alot of good ideas on how to dress up Winky here. Why dont you all MAKE them and post them in the "Your Vision of Winky" forum. WWW Link

Because I'm no artist. I'm still trying (desperately!!!) to figure out my first skin. Not an easy task. If I could do it with a guitar we'd be set (musically inclined here....).
