We would like to announce the 2012 Valentines Day Theme Design Contest.  In this contest, you will create a Valentine’s Day WordPress theme for our themes directory at fanfusion.org/themes.  We will keep the rules short and simple as some of you may be familiar with it already.

How to enter

1. To submit a theme, please leave a comment here that you will be entering.  When you are finished with the theme, please email it to us along with a psd of the editable regions and a list of fonts.  The theme is for wordpress (not coppermine).
2. Please leave a room for a 300×250 in the header and 728×90 above the fold.   [Example]
3. The theme will be for WordPress and must be easy to use and edit for different celebrities, and not based on widgets
4. Themes must be your own original designs, and by submitting the theme you agree to give us permission for unlimited use of the themes.  Once submitted, a theme cannot be removed.
5. There must be a graphical link to fanfusion.org in the header image somewhere, example, the following in this theme.  It is an example, please don’t copy and paste this exact image

6. The sidebar needs to be able to fit a banner that is 300 pixels wide (e.g., you can make it 350 pixels).

Winners:
There will be 2 winners, possibly more if more high quality themes are submitted.  Each person will receive a 15 pound (about $25) iTunes gift card.  Your credit will remain permanently on the theme, and we can promote your design site.  If you want something else instead of an itunes gift card we can try to substitute it.  We will decide the winners as soon as we receive the entries, and you will know asap, there’s no specific end date of the contest, it will end on Valentine’s Day.

Today is our 4th year online since the opening of our fansite hosting site (even though we have been in the fansites world for a while before we opened the hosting site). Thanks to everyone who has contributed to the site in any way. And thanks to all of our loyal hostees and supporters who have been with us through everything.  Our plans this year include creating a fansites directory, revamping 500 blank domains, reach 10,000 followers, 5000 facebook likes, and more.  We want to try to get some fansites up on some celebrities or topics that we don’t have yet, and will continue to provide tribute fansites to all the celebrities that inspire us all.

Thanks for these birthday graphics:

We would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.  We hope you enjoy the holiday season with your friends and family.

Domain promotion

Every domain application on Christmas or Christmas Eve will be accepted (with a few simple rules, below).  Sites of any language are acceptable. We have received a domain gift card for Christmas and we thought it would be good to use it for a promotion like this for the holidays.

1. Domain requests must be for the main site and not forum, galleries, etc.  The domain requests should be for new sites, and not adoptions.

2. The site must be open and the site pages completed by New Year’s.  If you are ordering a layout, you can use one of our free themes in the meantime, but the content pages and a layout must be up.

3. You must demonstrate through the application that you are serious about the site, either through a preview or other information.  Domains can’t be changed so please make sure that your choice of domain is final and you are 100% sure.

To apply through this promotion, email us the regular application form and include this sentence in the application: “I understand that the domain can’t be changed and agree to open the site by New Year’s including the complete content and a layout.”
