The skypeforum.de Skype pictures contest

By My status Jaanus on August 8, 2005 in Skype around the world.

The German Skype forum www.skypeforum.de recently held a contest of Skype pictures. They asked the users to create images that had anything to do with Skype while being cool and/or funny and/or serious. We supported them with some SkypeOut and Voicemail credit for the winners.

Tons of great stuff submitted! We're glad to see Skype provides this much inspiration to people :) Below is a selection of the works. Rough translations are provided in some cases -- sorry if I got it wrong, German speakers please correct then.

Image

"Life-long calling".

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

"Damn, I forgot my headset."

Image

Image

Image

Image

"Skypers -- so that your telephone calls could last longer."

Image

Image

Image

Image

"Reach all goals with SkypeOut -- where, when, and as often as you want."

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

Image

"Looks say more than 1000 words. This look says... just Skype Me!"

Image

Image

Image

Which one of these you like or don't like? Do you think it's a good idea to introduce Skype through pictures? Would you like to host your own contest like this with our support? Talk back to us here in comments or [in the forum](http://forum.skype.com/viewforum.php?f=26).

I like those with the coffe cup and the "spaceship" field imprint...
Those two and a few more with a similar theme of Skype signs popping up "naturally & unexpectedly" could be part of a real Skype-raising-awareness marketing campaign. Just rent out billboards and place those pic one week, then add catchphrases to billboards next week...

Catchphrase: "Skype. It's everywhere now!"

Just my 2 cents?! Ha :D Even that could be a catchphrase, unless you were to reduce your SkypeOut prices for the USA, Canada and other 2 cent countries (it's 0.017 incl. VAT, to be more exact, but...) ;)

I like how some people actually put some thoughts into their submission. It's interesting to see what people perceived Skype as. :) Is the submission still open?
