Default **IMPORTANT** Capture the Love changes

We had hoped that the additional iPod and chance to win would make everyone happy and we could carry on without going refresh crazy. But that didn't happen.

A few bad apples have spoiled it.

The 2 iPod Nanos will now BOTH be given away by voting starting on the 14th. The iPods will be given away to the top 2 vote recipients. All layouts posted in the Capture the Love gallery by February 13th will be eligible and a poll will be posted on February 14th.

We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.

Glad to see cool heads prevail Katie...you've handled this all with grace and I think your solution is an example of your desire to keep DD a happy, comfortable, drama free site. Bravo my friend! (And I too look forward to voting...there are some amazing layouts in that gallery!)

I couldn't get on DD last week and I wondered if all that "refreshing" nonsense had crashed the site. This seems like a better way to go. This is also why I never enter contests.

Wishing you all good luck, however!

quick question...how will the voting work? Does every registered DD person get one vote? Sorry if I am asking something that was already answered!

there will be a custom poll posted with ALL entries sorted by user name. Anyone registered on the site is allowed one vote. Poll results will be private [to eliminate craziness] until the voting ends and winners will be announced. So you'll want to send all your friends and family to vote for you!
