We could go frolic about in the snow and make robot angels or we could ask our readers to pitch in their ideas. Up for grabs for the winner: a brand spankin’ new copy ofDBZ: Tenkaichi 2for the Wii. I must stress that snow is not the only acceptable medium — you can make a pictoral mash-up of wintery things if need be....
