I wanted to express a positive message to an organization that has changed my life: Wikimedia, the organization behind Wikipedia. So to create my image macro, I went straight to Wikipedia to get a picture of rocks and added a message that represents what I think of their work: U GUYZ ROK!!!
I sent it to info@wikimedia.org, but I haven't gotten a response yet. I will update if and when I do.

We appreciate your kind words in the graphic and are thrilled that you enjoy Wikipedia. We hope to continue to live up to your expectations and that you continue to find the site a useful resource.
If you are interested in becoming involved in the site yourself, please see our tutorial at which
contains all the help you need to get started.
Yours sincerely,
Daniel

Yep, a positive organization with a positive attitude. They deserved the congratulations.
i like that you did a nice one. Its hard to think of corporations/governments that one wants to say positive things to/about.
