Melanie at Proof Positive has written a great article on Photography Contest Scams.  While you’re there, look around.  Proof Positive is an awesome resource for true creative contesting competitions.

I didn’t make it into the final 500, but my friend and fellow sweeper Lori did!  She’s even started her own web-page to promote the Cube (and herself)! So please please please take a look at her great profile and canvas and all the amazing creative stuff she’s done to promote the Nissan Cube.  Vote for her while you’re there.  She truly deserves one of these great 50 Cubes Nissan is giving away!

The sweeps database is totally cleaned out of all bad links and lots of listings have been modified to update the most recent information.  And here are the new listings for today:

• 15 new sweeps/contests
• 12 new freebies
• 3 new shops

I’ve been really busy making modifications and updates to all the contests & sweepstakes currently in our database, which is keeping me from making new updates to the blog or adding very many brand new sweeps.  Most which have been added lately are modifications of sweeps we’ve had in the directory for ages.

In any case, when I’m done, the database will be all sparkly and new and hopefully won’t have very many bad links or outdated information.

I have also been very busy beta testing our new software Rewards Plus.  This software downloads all the sweeps in our directory and manage them in whichever way you choose, including:

• downloading the newest sweeps directly to your computer
• keeping only those sweeps you’re actually interested in entering
• flagging your favourite sweeps
• keeping track of when you entered a sweep, and how often you wish to enter it

If you are an intermediate or advanced computer user, and wish to help us beta test it, we’d be very grateful.  We need to know what is and isn’t working; as well as what people do and don’t like about it.
