Summer stories

Summer is over and we're eager to find out what you did. Did you go by interail in Europe, or had a big city vacation? Maybe you had to work all summer and nothing happened? Anyway, we want to hear it, so we're hosting a "We don't know what you did this summer" story contest. The rules are simple:

• Write a story on your My Opera blog about what you did this summer and tag it "summer story".
• You are not allowed to use more than 1000 words.
• The post must include pictures.
• You must be a registered member of the My Opera Community to participate.
• It is prohibited to publish any content which is defamatory, offensive or abusive or of an obscene or menacing nature (will result in disqualification).
• Submit a link to your blog post either by e-mail (espenao[at]opera.com) or private message.
• Contest ends Tuesday, September 16th.
• Winners will be determined by community vote — for one week — so everyone can vote on their favorite summer holiday story.

We will also provide everyone who participates with banners and artwork they can use to spread the word and increase their winning chances.

The top-3 with the highest amount of votes will receive a very special Opera "back to school" kit, including a really cool bag you can use for school or work. We will also throw in some Opera pens, memo books, and some other useful items.

Best of luck to everyone who wish to participate! We're looking forward to reading and sharing your summer stories!

Kudos to community hero fritter for this great contest idea!
