If you're like me, then you've seen a [link] that makes you curious. So you click it, and find yourself over at some other site, your speakers blaring the lyrics of "Never Gonna Give You Up". Unlike most people, I was inspired by that, and I'm inviting you to be inspired by it as well with my RickRoll Emoticon Project!

You know the rules, and so do I! (Rules of entering)

What I'm looking for are emoticons that are easily recognized to be Rick Astley, such as by `Norke, by =LeoLeonardo, or and are examples from my gallery. Don't let those examples limit you, though. I'd love to see your interpretation of him! You are allowed to enter multiple times; I'd like to see how many variations on Rick Astley we can come up with! You can enter a large emoticon, but make sure that they're no larger than 50 x 50 pixels, or the size of your avatar.

We've known each other for so long (Deadline)

This will be an ongoing project; there's no deadline at the moment.

Don't tell me you're too blind to see (Where the entries will be displayed)

The entries will be displayed in my contest journal, and you can either leave me a comment or note me with your entry. If you leave me a comment, please link to it by using the URL found in the address bar, since thumbs don't work in comments. Sending me a note with the thumb is fine.

Gotta make you understand (Resources and tutorials)

If you're just starting out making emoticons, then there are a few things you need to learn first. =Emotication is an unofficial club with lots of tutorials and resources to check out! Also check out by ~Pomarzrs for an excellent vector emoticon tutorial, and this gallery should help if you're more into making emoticons pixel by pixel.

Let's see some Rick Astley emoticons!
