As part of a promotion for Innocent Drinks, Baldscone was asked to develop this online competition experience for kids to explore. Using pack codes from drinks packs, kids can enter three different competitions. This richly animated site has areas for uploading photos, viewing submitted entries, information packs on different seeds and even its own weather system.

From a technical perspective it hooks into a number of databases to enter kids into the various competitions and also uses a few techniques to save user data across various sub-domains.

As this site was a temporary promotion it is no longer live – see here for a video of it on YouTube.

Baldscone was recently asked to help port this existing Flash site to Facebook and add Facebook integration. Users can use their Facebook profile images to upload photos and create new characters then interact with them.

Have a go at creating a character here: Gumball Character Creator or see a screen capture here.
