Smiley Contest!

In honor of all of our new smilies, we have decided to run another smiley story contest! The winner will receive this beautiful pack of 5 cards made by our own debknechtel and their "I won" icon for their award showcase!

If the judges find it difficult to pick just one winner, we will choose runner up winners that will also receive their "I won" icon.

The rules: Contest open from today through June 27, 2008 midnight PST. Everyone may enter, you may enter as often as you like, only one story can win. Winner(s) will be chosen by a panel of judges selected by FamilyCorner.com.

To play: Tell a story by using text and smilies. Wherever you can replace a word with smilies, do so. Try not to duplicate too often. For example:

Quote:
I was really one day and my computer was acting up so I decided to enjoy the nice weather . It was pretty hot so I figured a good way to off would be to go and drink lots of . So I my friends and we for a while and decided to at the beach too. I said and hung up the and looked for my so I could take some pictures. I put my on and headed out the door to go to the .

We will be looking for creativity, so start telling a story!

Our Week-end

While we were sitting outside, drinking and , a little blue bear came upon us and said. We had never seen him before, so we inquired a little more about him. He noticed our on our table, and asked if he could have some, as he looooovvved it. I my neighbor, who was a and asked if the little blue bearcould have some . My neighbor said that it was ok. Just as I was going to hand a slice of to the little blue bearit went on the ground. A little flew by, and dropped candy bars his way, so the little blue bear wouldn't get as there were none left. His little sister sauntered over and told him if he didn't get back home and quit bothering us, their mother would be coming over and drag him back home, because she was having a . Our little friend said as they went back home.
