I'm in.

kind of wondered that myself, why were penguins and why we don't have a contest with them.  I also wonder why Doing a zombie contest was such a good idea.  I only did a zombie for April Fools ( Easter contest) because the monthly thread mentions zombies.  Where going to have to stop having contests for some of the holidays each month.  I just found a good one for winter or Christmas.  I have too many pictures I might want to show everybody to do contests.  So I'm not a contest crazy person, just picture crazy.

I'm in-have to find one.



Cat

In!!!

I'm in! And what's more, I already found one...

Just search for animated gif penguin...

coo coo cool

Guess I've already got my entry.  :P


The more I look at it, the more I wonder if he's "shuffleing"  Any dancers out there care to give an opinion?

Thanks!  I love how it takes the guy by surprise!  Should be a statement Penguin don't care!!!!  Lol

I've never seem that one before either.

I was just seeing if I could resize it for you real quick.  I'd been working on mine all day while waiting for my laundry to wash and dry.

Hey you guys - are my penguins dancing?

2kidsami- http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc153/rocksannwastaken/unsorted/funny-gifs-penguins-are-jerks.gif  here's a 100 by 75 one that will fit in an avatar you can use.  I'm not sure if there's an easy way I can cut some width on all the frames so I can add some more hight

I'm keeping to my do something screwy with whatever idea.  I fixed this guy up from the newer more gross looking penguin.  The only batman movie after the series I like and love is the one with  Jack Nicholson  as the Joker.

Thank you!  I now need to try and get it moved to my avatar!  On phone probably not possible!

I loved Jack Nicholson, but I thought Heath Ledger was just...wow.

Agreed Heath ledger was amazing!

actors really aren't my thing and I don't know everyone, but I thought Jack Nicholson made a great joker in that movie and the fact that the writers just kept the joker as an insane lunatic and didn't make him look yuckier or anything. 

On good advice from snozberries, I changed my avatar from the latest contest.

I just may have to change it because it has no meaning if it can't move.

I guess you should start a voting thread after you do. May is the 14th birthday of the messageboard (started in 1998 as part of inthe80s) so I guess we can call it an early birthday voting contest.  I need to figure out what I should use for a medal for the winners.

I didn't notice you made this into a voting thread already... good job.

It struck me as odd that everyone seemed to have penguins, so I went looking and found this thread. ;) Then seeing everyone follow the normal rules, I just added the poll to it with all the avatars. I am all over this for you Chucky! 8)

Brilliant idea too.

We can wait until the weekend to let people sign up, then do the voting and the winners can be announced on Tuesday or Wednesday - unless you want it to go longer?

that's probably fine unless someone wants more time.  I don't think I have any penguin avatars of my own, so even though I proposed it, I won't be joining in the fun this time around.  I did however make the new penguin medal earlier today and it's already on the medals page.

YAY!! Second place. :D Thanks all!

Congrats to Patty and Sami as well. :)


Think I might be sticking to this avatar.

Congrats Patty, Henk and Sami!

WOW!  Very unexpected!  Funny as a video, but a classic I thought you would have been tired of.  And part of it gets lost in the smallness of the avatar!

Congratulations to Henk and Bookie as well!!!! 

Thanks for everyone who entered and to Tam for running the show as always. We'll run one of these again in about 13 months so the next one coincides with the messageboard anniversary.

of course I find this one now that the contest is over:
