Contest: Win EA Mobile's Spore: Origins for your iPhone/iPod Touch photo

Have an iPhone? Like Spore? Like free stuff? Sweet.

So listen up: we've got 10 "copies" of EA Mobile's Spore: Origins to giveaway. By copies, we mean Spore: Origins gift cards featuring codes redeemable on iTunes for one copy of the game. Spore: Origins is the mobile spin-off of Will Wright's "evolutionary" PC game where you'll focus on the "cell phase" of your created creature. While I don't own an iPhone or an iPod Touch, I had a chance to check the game out at an event not too long ago and was surprised at how fun it actually was.

How to win: simply show or tell us your idea for a Spore creature/Apple product mash-up. A good example would be using MS Paint or Photoshop to add limbs or antennae to an iMac or an iPhone. There is no such thing as a "bad example" -- you have nothing to lose!

Leave your images or ideas in the comments section of this post; we'll be accepting submissions through Thursday, 11:59 PM PT. Our ten favorites will win the Spore: Origins iTunes gift cards. Good luck!

[Update: To clarify, the cards are only redeemable in the United States. I know, I'm sorry, but I don't want to hear about it -- blame Apple!]

I'd make little horned rainbows and go around calling myself "The Homosexual Agenda", mating only with other horned creatures in the soup, and only from behind.

a photo app which allows you to upload any photo you have and it randomly creates a limp or body part by randomly cutting out a size and shape appropriate for that part.

To elaborate on my idea the first picture is my idea for lips and eyes placed on every iPhone and the second is the "WrightPod", a device where every bit of media is controlled by Will Wright. Every single Simlish song from the Sim games are available for purchase, including "Webee go ina ronda muntan wen we come CHOO CHOO" and "Boogie boogie boot booty booty booga ya yeah".

You can forget about LITTLE BIG PLANET SPORE that would be the greatest SPORE of all time.
