For anyone looking for a summer / side project, and maybe a chance to win some money, meez.com (where I work) is running a game competition on FlashGameLicense.com.
To enter you just need to submit a game that uses the Meez-Inside Avatar API to embed the players own Meez avatar (or one of a set of pre-configured ones) into the game as the main character. You can also use the online service to generate other characters for the game.
First prize is $10,000USD from a total prize pool of over $20,000 USD. You can find the details, along with API samples, discussion forums etc here

Please feel free to forward this link onto anyone you think might be interested. You can ask questions on the FGL forum directly or PM me if you want more information.
Thanks,
Peter
