In Which You Have a Chance to Win a Custom Tricked Out Blog Design

Post image for In Which You Have a Chance to Win a Custom Tricked Out Blog Design

Ok, so, here’s the deal. If you’re reading this in an RSS reader, come over to the site. There are a few changes to the blog, including a new color scheme, some crazy ass footer, and a tagline that makes me so happy I want to make out with it. Twice.

Also, big news over here at the Varon household. Nicole Antoinette, my codependent life partner slash roommate, and I have joined our creative genius to work together making Shatterboxx Media even better than it already is. To celebrate, I gave her blog, my blog, and the company website full-on makeovers.

And, because we’re feeling particularly giddy over our new digs, we’ve decided to give one of YOU lucky people a tricked out blog design. The only catch is that you’ll need to be operating on WordPress and be self-hosted. (Let us know if you have any questions.) Besides that, you can enter as many times as your little heart can allow it.

We will announce the very, very lucky winner on February 15. Good luck!

So, here’s how you can win (each is one entry and you can enter as many times as you want):

  • Follow @shatterboxx on Twitter
  • Tweet about the contest then come back here and leave a comment on this post with a link to your tweet(s). Sample tweet: Win a gorgeous custom blog designed by @shatterboxx ladies @jamievaron & @nicoleisbetter. Contest details here: http://bit.ly/9jaRmO
  • Blog about the contest then, again, come back here and leave a comment on this post with a link to your post
  • Sign up for the Shatterboxx Media monthly email newsletter below

I am voluntarily removing myself from this competition. (OMG why would you do such a thing!?)

Good luck everyone.

Just thought to myself, “Damn, I’d like a website that looks as gorgeous as this one… too bad that can never happen because I don’t have the mad skillz and there are no contests going on right now that will give away these designers’ mad skillz.” Boy, was I wrong.

I told Titter AGAIN about this fabulous content right here: http://twitter.com/formica_dinette/status/8951577319 and therefore you should probably pick me. Can you imagine the bacon-themed blog of fabulousness that we will create?

It’s a fabulous offer, although if this is the example of the re-vamped website, I’d rather poke my eye out.
