contest, opera mini
Opera Mini is now in its 4th version, and to celebrate an upcoming release, we want to create a collage featuring people using Opera Mini from around the world. 
Therefore, we're reaching out to you. We would like to tribute you on our product pages (among other places) with a picture (head shot) and a testimonial (1-2 sentences) about why you love Opera Mini.
It's recommended that you submit a picture of yourself which is in good quality (high resolution and minimal amount of noise). Feel free to snap a picture of yourself doing something fun while surfing the Web on your phone, or something similar. All you need is a camera and a good chunk of imagination. Just be sure to have your face fairly prominent in the picture.
The reward for those who're used in the collage will receive an Opera goodie-bag and instant Internet fame by being recognized with our smallest (but most powerful) browser .
Good luck everyone, and we can't wait to see those testimonials!
Rules
- Deadline is on Monday, May 12th.
- Images are limited to .jpg, .gif, .png and .pdf. If you would like to use a different format, please send an inquiry first.
- Email attachments are limited to 1 MB. Please send an inquiry if your submission is greater than 1 MB size, or if you have a location to host your file (such as your My Opera Community account), simply send the link.
- It is prohibited to send content which is defamatory, offensive or abusive or of an obscene or menacing nature.
- Send your entry as an attachment or upload it to your My Opera Community page, and email the link.
- By sending us your submission, you accept that Opera Software ASA may re-use your submission for marketing purposes.

winners, widgets, contest, prizes
The talented developers who'll receive goodie-bags are:
It's great to see new developers and users on My Opera take initiative, but also to win prizes! It also goes to show that anyone can win!
A very good Widget we want to spotlight for week #4 is Project Velt 2.2 by gyrobo.
We would also like to add a small thank you note about the worthy cause of raising awareness about homeless issues, with this widget: Homeless not hopeless.
calsbert is a new user, but he hasn't held back. As soon as he joined, he translated the Artist's Sketchbook for Grafio. Albert sure seems like a great guy!
December is just around the corner, along with a bigger competition with an even bigger prize. We won't say what it is just yet, but it's coming. All widgets uploaded now are eligible for the grand prize.
We'll fill you in on more details in a while... but for now, all you need to do is — make a great widget!

Friday September 15th we ended our Manager League Quiz. We received tons of entries (
nearly all of them were correctly filled out - good job all!), and we had to select a winner randomly. So we wish to congratulate (drum roll...) Stig N. Andersen for being the winner of our Manager League Phone Quiz. Besides honor and glory he will receive a brand new slick Sony Ericsson M600i mobile phone
Opera wishes to thank all those who contributed for making this competition a success!
