I guess this is one of the reasons I should’ve marketed my blog better but too late for that now. Oh well. I don’t think I can compete with those awesome design blogs but good luck to everyone!

… & just kidding about the toes. Toes are gross.

Edit: Thanks Helga!

Rules:

• Open to everyone EVEN new users.
• Must fill out all fields (except “last name” and fields under “contact” is optional).
• “Biographical Info” field must have a minimum of 3 lines of text.
• Comment any entry (don’t post your username though).
• If you have a blog, you must link back to TwentyFourCarat.net and I will put you in a separate draw to win a NYX lipstick _{(or two)}.
• Send me a notification (including your username) via my contact form to let me know that you’ve filled out your profile.
• Contest will end on September 30^th, 2008.

*Don’t worry, no one will see your profile but me. & I know I said I was going to give away a book, but I’ll do that next time. And um, if you’re a guy, your girlfriend will be very happy if you won. Besides, who doesn’t like free stuff?

Why? I finally upgraded WordPress to 2.6.1! I never did it before because I didn’t want Post Levels to break … and it didn’t! It doesn’t work in 2.4, 2.5 or 2.6 but I guess 2.6.1 somehow fixed it (yes I was still using 2.3.1)! Yay. But anyway, I also really wanted to use the Register Plus plugin and I was sick of making newly registered members fill out a questionnaire before I approve their account. Most importantly, I was losing track of users on here and forgot who half of them are.

STEPHANIE

…who won a copy of The Host by Stephenie Meyer. I’m pretty sure she was my very first subscriber too so she deserved to win!

As for the second part of my contest, there weren’t enough participants so I won’t be giving out the prize (my fault for not promoting it enough). Props to J* though for entering.

For my next contest, I will either be giving away graphic design books, The Twilight Series (Stephenie Meyers) or Phillipa Gregory books so stay tuned!!

Also, a note to those who have registered recently… CHECK YOUR EMAIL / JUNKMAIL FOLDER!!!! I won’t approve your account until you reply to my email and verify your account!

I’m going to be sending a FREE copy of The Host by Stephenie Meyer to a registered member of 24c. It will be a random draw but of course there will be rules:

• You have to be registered before today (June 1^st, 2008).
• Your account has been logged into within the last 5 months.
• Pending registrations DON’T count.

For non-registered members, if you want a free book, comment on this entry and write a short paragraph on your blog about your favorite book, a quick synopsis (NO SPOILERS PLEASE!) and WHY you love it. If I get enough entries, I’ll select my favorite one and send you The Witching Hour by Anne Rice. Registered members can do this too to get a chance on getting TWO free books. Teeheehee. Rules are:

• You must have a blog (WP, Facebook, Xanga, whatever, as long as it’s a blog) and write in it at least 2 times per week.
• Blog about this contest and link back to this entry on 24c. The link is: http://twentyfourcarat.net/?p=1338

Books will be brand new and ordered from Amazon.

If you’ve already read any of these books, let me know and I’ll consider choosing another (you don’t get to pick). Why am I doing this?! BECAUSE I THINK EVERYONE SHOULD BE READING!!!!!!!!!! Everyone needs to appreciate and understand the value of books. Look out for the winner(s) in a couple of weeks.

EDIT —
Sorry but I forgot to add, I’ll be contacting the winners for their mailing addresses so make sure your email is valid! It’s up to you to give it to me or not (there is a chance I’ll be stalking you and showing up at your door with rubber duckies) but if you don’t, obviously your gift is forfeited.

DEADLINE: JUNE 15^TH.

Soooo… here’s the deal:

1. Comment on this entry OR email me and write a couple sentences or even a paragraph (the more the better) about yourself, your personality and your interests. The only catch is that you have to have a blog and I have to somehow know you (eg. have I visited your blog before?).
2. Email me your name and address. Don’t worry, I won’t give it to some creepy pedophile.
3. In a couple days, I will write down everyone’s personality on pieces of paper and draw two people.
4. I will then go out to buy them a present either locally or online just because I’m addicted to online shopping. The gift will be based on your personality and it could be anything; purchased, preowned, cheap or expensive. Don’t worry, I’ll try to refrain from sending anyone smelly socks unless their personality permits.

Just don’t expect a new refridgerator or something if you emphasize that you love to eat and fried chicken because shipping is freaking expensive. You MAY expect a bucket of fried chicken though.

Hehe. Kidding.
