We just produced this video about a girl who lost her smile, then found it again, through her memories captured with friends and family. I guess it really wasn't missing... it was there all along. (the music is a toe-tapper)



I thought the way the video was animated with the drawing of the girl was cool and I wanted to have some fun with it. So I got a copy of the drawing that was used and printed it to cut out and pose around the office.



Here she is searching for her smile amongst the ketchup and half drank bottles of waters in our office fridge.



She might think her smile is lost in the jungle but she is actually in our office pet plant (which could use some water).

I would love to see where else this girl might be looking for her lost smile. You can download her here, print her out and pose her around town for photos. Then upload your photos here to share!



I also created a Lost Smile poster. If you think there is a lack of smiles around you, you can download the poster here for printing and hanging. Hopefully it will bring a smile to someone's face.

Last week even more great features were added to the new Kodak Gallery!

- Big Beautiful Full Screen Slideshow
- Facebook Sharing - cool!!!
- New photobooks and a new way to make them

Check out this blog post over on Plugged In to get the scoop on these new features.

Thanks Man is still working hard giving out a million free $15 gifts in 21 days as a thank you for everyone's help in making the Kodak Gallery better.

Here is the latest chronicle of his progress.



We have been amazed at the outpouring of love for Thank Man. We have seen comments on YouTube such as...

"Thanksman for president!!!"

and

"Thanksman is my hero!"

The hard working Thanks Man is nearing the end of his mission, so you better hurry to get your free photo gift from the Kodak Gallery.

Tonight, Kodak returns to The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien. The last episode of The Tonight Show with Kodak involved photos of sharks, sand castles and Conan in swim trunks! Tonight is going to be just as exciting as the first appearance so make sure to tune in to The Tonight Show on NBC at 11:35 pm EST/PST, 10:35 pm CST and see what goes down!
    
   

Here is a really easy way to carve your pumpkin for Halloween. Just clean out your pumpkin like you usually would but then instead of a scary face, cut a window into the front of your pumpkin and pin a photo on the inside of it.

There are more detailed instructions on the Kodak Tips & Projects Exchange.



It's a great way to show off a favorite photo. Happy Halloween!

Kodak is working with YouTube on a great destination for moms - For Mom: Your Online Survival Guide.  The For Mom site features lots of great videos with tips, advice and inspiration for moms, from moms. You can find videos under topics like "In The Home" and "Health and Beauty".



We also added a few videos with advice for moms... from kids. You have to take their words of wisdom with a grain of salt, but they are very funny and very cute.

Kodak played a big part in the 140 Characters Conference in LA. We kicked the conference off with a video workshop with online video expert Steve Garfield.



Steve shared tips and tricks for creating great videos and getting them online.



There was a lot of interaction with the attendees, like here with Sarah Maizes and Rachel Sarnoff. Check out this quick video with the workshop attendees created as a test.

What a great way to start the 140 Conference!



This conference was extra special because we were able to have it in the Kodak Theatre.



We even reserved a seat for Jack, just in case he decided to show up and learn more about Twitter.



Kodak had a booth set up in the lobby where visitors can learn all about Kodak products and what Kodak has been doing with social media. We were set up right next to TweetPhoto who uploaded photos taken during the conference. There are also lots of pictures of the conference here.



We had a Smile Cam set up where attendees could record "what makes them smile" and were being shared on 12 Second Video. 140 Conference founder Jeff Pulver is seen here recording his video.

Jeff Hayzlett was invited to help host some of the conference with Jeff Pulver. Mashcast created this hilarious of Jeff and Jeff to play at the opening of the first day.



The conference was great and covered how Twitter effects topics from education to sports to rockstars and more. If you would like to follow some of the folks here at Kodak on Twitter, here is a list (using the new Twitter list feature!) of Kodak Tweets.
