Yesterday we’ve released some excellent new stuff for you to have fun with…
This time, beside our beautiful Smileys and Winks, we’ve added two surprises:
1. The “ZacRap” - a cool interactive wink where you can make Zac Efron sing and dance some Rap music. Just don’t touch him in places I wouldn’t have touched…
2. Since summer is here, it’s time for the “Wet T-Shirt Contest”. Get them girls wet…
Here’s the ZacRap:
You can find it and more in our menus, under the “new” button.
For those of you who didn’t notice - we’ve added a new gift-box button to our Internet Explorer toolbar.
