For example, create the logo out of candles on a birthday cake, program your very own <a href=\"http:\/\/fruitfly.files.wordpress.com\/2006\/08\/litebrite.gif\">lite-brite<\/a> or light show, or create a fun <a href=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/_XEt84P8BY-U\/SPecH4TMNQI\/AAAAAAAAAe0\/8WAxOxsxCYc\/s400\/firefox+wallpaper2.jpg\">wallpaper<\/a>! If you&#8217;re really have a lot of time on your hands (and skills) you could even create a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/lichtfaktor\/\">light show<\/a>. \u00a0The more creative, the better.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mobile:<\/strong> Get the Firefox logo on your phone and take a picture holding it in front of a local landmark.
