More Breaking News- Due to my contest rules not being clear for contest B here it goes- You must be wearing something black (you don't have to be wearing all black) This should make everyone happy!
Breaking News- Interface 27 will be postponed until Tuesday. We just found out that our genius flash programmer, Zahari (one of the brains behind Rock Star) dog "Nikita" passed away early this morning in ER. Because Zahari is putting the final touches on template 27 we must give him a day for his loss. Sorry.
BluDomain launches "Rock Star" on Tuesday!
"Rock Star" has 8 galleries, the option to add text with each image in the galleries, a calendar, contact page, client proofing and 8 text sections. A video section that can be added for $150.00.
NEW to debut for the first time ever at BluDomain. A "real" blog that is an add-on addition for $150.00. A homepage that you can upload one BIG horizontal images or 3 vertical images. Love this part! An unlimited jukebox. And my FAVORITE part- A splash page that gives you two points of entry. So essentially two websites. If you have portraits and seniors you can now split them off. You won't believe it until you see this beauty tomorrow. For now just "imagine"
Only $600.00 until Thursday at midnight.
** If you have no $$ or want to try and win this new interface for FREE then you have until midnight on Monday to submit your photographs to our 2 contests. I can't believe the entries. Why do I always have to judge? Contest A- take a photograph of your neighbor(s) with them holding the peace sign with their fingers. Contest B- take a photograph of you in black with a sign that is written in Purple that says your company name plus ROCKS! Example- BluDomain Rocks. Please you must have black on only!
