With the 2008 Beijing Olympics off to a spectacular start, it's time to break out the free goodies for MSN and Live Messenger. We kick things off with a collection of 8 free winks from Microsoft. These aren't just ordinary winks, but customizable photo winks where you can add your own picture to an Olympic athlete's body.
All you need to do to get your free Olympic wink is visit the Reveal your inner athlete website and answer 8 simple and quick questions to reveal your natural athlete type. There are eight different results that you can get based on your answers, and you will get a Messenger wink representing that athletic type.
Head over to the Reveal your inner athlete website to get started.
Now, we can imagine that the quiz may not give you the results that you want, so here are the correct answers to get the wink that you want:
- Weightlifter wink - A A A B B B A A
- Soccer player wink - A A A A A A A A
- BMX rider wink - A A A A B B B B
- Long jumper wink - A A B B A A B B
- Ping pong player wink - A A B B B A A B
- Tennis player wink - A A A B B B B B
- Diver wink - B B A A B B A A
- Eater wink - B B A A B A B A
Once you've finished the quiz, simply upload your photo and your animation will be created for you. Simply click on the Share on Messenger button to install the wink. Please note that you need to be signed into either MSN Messenger or Windows Live Messenger. The tool also only allows for JPEG images to be uploaded.
You're also free to take the quiz 8 times in order to get all of the winks. Once the wink is installed, you should receive the following confirmation message:
Congratulations! You've successfully installed the wink and can share it using Windows Live Messenger. Just open a conversation window in Messenger, click the Select a wink icon and select your inner athlete wink from the drop down!
Some of these Olympic games winks are quite funny, so try it out and share them with your friends. We'll have more free Olympics related stuff for you shortly. In the meanwhile, you can check out our sporty emoticons from our online emoticons gallery (all free of course).
