Welcome to Big Boards. Big Boards at one time offered the Zathyus network our long famous Resource Archives, our extensive search indexes, and our info-packed resource forums. Eventually, these were made redundant by upgrades to the documentations and expanded search features added to the ZetaBoards software, and this forum then lost relevancy and subsequently became inactive.

Our team then embarked on a new project called Planet Nexus, where a bold new experiment in forum promotion is taking place. We call it nexworking. NexusTree offers social networking pages for forums in a fully automated format. Your NexusTree page is created instantly when your join the nexus. Find out more by visiting Planet Nexus, and become part of the nexworking revolution.

Dancing Kitty wins! I will be transferring my prize to the BB Benevolence Fund. --hzf

Look for the next Smilie search challenge in the next few days..... :)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


OK...so which is the best dancing smilie? Let the voting begin!

Thought I'd just attach the poll to the challenge topic to keep everything together. You may vote and add comments as usual. Although I posted a mess of smilies, I just put up my best 3. But it was hard to choose. ( I really love my chicken, but he keeps freezing....must be stage fright or something....]

On Sunday, August17, at 11:59 pm forum time (CDST or -5 GMT), voting will close and the prize will be awarded. (in case of a tie, the prize will be split between the winners.) Good luck everyone

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Original Challenge:

Welcome to BB's Smilie Search Challenge.

You will have 3 days to find the best dancing smilie and post it in this topic. At the end of the challenge we will have a vote on who has found (or made) the best one. Your smilie must contain at least one recognizable smilie face "expression" but may be any size and may be animated.

Please keep in mind that a smilie is not just any graphic....it has to convey an expression or emotion through it's designs. If your entry is rejected, it will be because: 1. it didnt' fulfill the objective of the challenge. 2. It is not really a smilie. For our purposes, we'll go by this definition:
Quote:
 
The smiley comes in a number of different forms, although the classic yellow round face is still popular a number of different styles have been created. The smiley in web terms is now related more to a small static or moving avatar, which represents an expression of one's feelings.


Deadline for entries is Thursday, August 14, at 11:59.pm forum time (CDST or -5 GMT)

The winner of the first smilie challenge will receive a credit award of 500 BB credits.

yes, you may enter as many times as you like. :) The point is to collect all the best dancing smilies in one topic. Well, my point anyway. :D

OK..we're coming down to the wire. Here are some of my faves:
My top 3 would be:
The white cat, because the moves are so smooth
The smilie dance trio, because it's so funny
The chicken, because I love it's face
(the monkey is pretty cool too.)

Wow, the things I miss by not coming to this part of the board before! I'd have submitted my dancing cows and carrots (two separate smileys; the cows are not actually dancing with the carrots, although that might be fun too).

At the moment looks like a three way tie.
