Want A Blog MakeOver? Here's My Birthday GiveAway!

No. I'm not awake right now. LOL. I set this to publish at this time as I slept early yesterday in order to fully prepare for my red letter day. Hee hee. But it's not as if there's gonna be a big party or anything. It'll be just me and the family celebrating my special day. I just want to start it right by waking up early and spending the day with my family and leaving the mail-checking and other internet activities later in the day. So.

Having said that, remember my promise a couple of months (?) ago about a blog makeover happening during my birthday? Well, it's here now! Yay! As a way of giving back, I thought why not share the happiness and make another person's day happy, as well? What are the mechanics for joining? Errmm.. LOL. Honestly? I haven't figured out the mechanics up to now. Haha! But I'm pretty easy to please so if you want your chance at the blog makeover, just:


1. Follow me (if you haven't already) or add me to your blogroll, whatever floats your boat;

2. AND of course, comment below, stating why you need a blog makeover.


The winner will be picked randomly, of course, so children, don't fight, okay? LOL. This is gonna be a FULL blog makeover, meaning the whole shebang: header, footer, post footer, signature, 125x125 button, customized sidebar headers, customized navigation bar, favicon, several nifty javascripts, HECK, EVERYTHING! ya hear? WordPress or Blogger hosted, it doesn't matter as long as you want to change your blog design and believe deep in your heart that I can do it. Hehe. And Pehpot, DON'T bother to enter because I personally DISQUALIFIED you from the contest due to the fact that I still have here two of your headers that I failed to do, still waiting to be turned into TWO templates. Just you wait when I get those memory sticks for my poor, antiquated PC. Excited now to do your new domains!

The contest will run for only three days, after that period I will select the winner already. I planned to give out a ready-made template this day but I thought, I could make the winner even happier by redesigning her blog to his/her EXACT taste and carry out her wishes to a T. Besides, me running on a 512mb right now hindered me from using any of the memory-hungry demons (i.e., Photoshop and Illustrator) that I need in order to finish the blog design that I had in mind. Hee hee. But no worries, I'm getting spanking brand new sticks on Monday (or Tuesday) so we'll be good to go by then. Or if the winner can put up with Gimp, then why wait? Hee hee.

OR, if you are not interested in my contest and just want to greet me OR (this is a much BETTER idea, methinks. Muhahaha!), give me a SWEET gift, feel free to do so. Haha. Whatever people. Just show me some lovin'! *grins* Any aspect of a proper contest that I fail to mention? Lemme know also in the comment section. I'm so poor in coming up with contest mechanics, I know. Hahaha! Buh-bye for now. Be checking for entries tonight. :)

UPDATE: There seems to be trouble when I auto-approve comments and just require people to go through word verification. Back to the old method now (meaning no word verification but comments will be moderated), so everything should be fixed! :)

THIS CONTEST IS OVER. PLEASE CHECK NEWER POST FOR THE WINNER.

Let me be the first to greet you a happy birthday. I hope you're having a grand day with your loved ones today and wishing you all the best today and always. And yes, I'm joining this contest, because as you can see, I badly need a new button, one that fits my blog to a T, and a template I can call my own or "yours," hehe.

Denise said...

Pollyanna said...

Happy Birthday!

I would love a blog make-over. My background is ok, but it doesn't really fit my personality nor does it reflect what my blog is all about. My header & button = BORING!

I'd love to see you at my blog: Life Makes Me Laugh

Wishing you a scent-sational birthday!

My blog is pretty bland right now. I need something snazzy to show off all the photographs I display on a daily basis.

AdriansCrazyLife said...

Happy Birthday, probably a few days late, but I hope it was fun. I would love to win a new blog makeover. I redid mine about a year ago and I like it, but I'm ready for something fresh and new and I love the look of yours. I'm sure you'd do something really wonderful for me. Crossing my fingers....

The Blonde Duck said...

How sweet of you to give to others on your birthday! I hope you have a wonderful day and eat lots of delicious cake (or pie!)

Genefaith said...

Hi Kaye, I'm back ...LOL! dami na palang gustong magpamake-over! Galing mo kasi...Anyway, I will join too but not my other blog instead my wordpress blog because of this: I'm still a newbie in blogosphere, I tried my best to make my blogsite presentable to attract visitors-bloggers and readers alike. I believe on the adage "First impression is lasting". Blog layout is one of the factors of increasing traffic in my blog site. I desired that my visitors will keep on coming back on my site. I discovered that other WP blogs show awesome were their templates-personalized header design, template that suits their theme and blog badges that shows their personal style. I felt intimidated knowing that my blog "look" is inferior.I just used the customized layout of WP and the layout doesn't suit my theme. I am like Cinderella living in unfortunate circumstances in cyberspace until....suddenly my world will soon change to remarkable fortune when you have this giveaway! a FREE BLOG MAKEOVER GIVEAWAY whether it's blogger of WP hosted! I exclaimed "This is it! This is what I need- a blog make-over".

I am hoping and praying that like the character "Cinderella", whose attributes are unrecognised and unexpectedly achieves recognition or success after period of obscurity when the "fairy Godmother"KAYE raises up her "magic wand" and do wonders on my blog-a new header design that suits my personality and blogs theme, cosmetic changes to current layout like rounded corners, new colors and anything else that needs a style from her,sprucing up footer elements and much, much more that will make my blog AWESOME!

thanks for reading my sentiments..he..he...Hope you'll be my fairy godmother...

Yami said...

Hi Kaye, happy birthday! I'm Miriam and I maintain Mom writes for a cause. I'm not really sure if this is my first or second time here. Memory lapse, I suppose.

I learned about your contest through Gene. My heart skip a bit upon learning that you'll be sponsoring a blog make-over on your birthday. I hope that the contest is still running until today. You see I started blogging last March with the intention of posting/sharing some social and health relevant stories to online readers. I decided to do that to spend my free time productively since I leave my job two years ago. I must admit that I'm not satisfied with the over-all appearance of my site, it looks boring. If I will be chosen for this generous give-away, I will be the happiest mommy blogger. :D

Yami said...

Kaye, I also added your site to my list of blogging friends. :-)
