Informal Poll: Holiday Winky?
A little bit of variety for our friendly little mascot?
Friday, October 26, 2007 by Zoomba | Discussion: WinCustomize News
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
