First of all, I've added a couple of new-ish PC movie pics to the Gallery, here.

I've also extended the ongoing Caption Contest. So if you have a funny caption for this image...



...be sure to send it in before January 18th. I can't wait to hear your funny stuff! :)]]> 1262643153 Mon, 04 Jan 2010 15:12:33 -0700 http://www.spareoom.net?subaction=showfull&id=1262369338&archive=
Happy New Year, everyone! 2009 was definitely very exciting for Narnia fans, what with Narnia being dumped right after last Christmas, and then picked up again in February, and then green-lit, and then filmed. Oh, and PC came out on DVD, too. 2010 will be even more exciting, with the movie actually being released in theaters at the end of the year. I mean, any year with a Narnia movie release in it has got to be pretty good. ;)

2009 was also an exciting year for Spareoom.net, too. The site has been growing by leaps and bounds, and during the summer I realized that in order to keep the growth going, Spareoom.net needed a new direction; a new outlet for it's creative energies.

It started with the opening of the Fan section, and various subtle but important changes made to the way the site looks, and is run. I've been teasing you about a super secret, exciting project coming soon, and in the interest of accountability (so I will actually hunker down and get it done), I'm going to tell you now. :)

This spring, Spareoom.net will be getting a brand-new forum. That's right; Spareoom.net is going interactive!

No, I won't try to compete with big sites like Narniaweb as far as movie news goes. That's not the kind of forum this will be. This will be a graphics-based forum; one that will help other graphic-makers by posting tutorials, techniques, and advice. There will also be sections for members to post their own graphics; their own "mini Spareoom.net". ;) We'll have more community events, including contests, sweepstakes and give-aways.

I'm so very excited to help usher Spareoom.net into a new 'era', and I really hope that at this time, next year, we can look back at the success and keep moving onward. :)

2010 is going to be a very, very big year. Are you ready? :D

Your webmistress,
Lisa]]> 1262369338 Fri, 01 Jan 2010 11:08:58 -0700 http://www.spareoom.net?subaction=showfull&id=1261342023&archive=


Merry Christmas to everyone! And if you don't celebrate Christmas, I hereby wish you a Generally Good Time in the Upcoming Week. ;)

Very belatedly, I have a Christmas postcard up here, and a new caption contest here. This one runs from now until the 3rd, so get your funny captions in as soon as you can!

Thanks for everything, and see you in the new year!

ETA: Oh, I thought I might mention that, if you look over at the visitor counter on your left, we've gone over 400,000 visitors to Spareoom.net ever. That's a really impressive number considering that we were only at 100,000 in May of last year, so I want to thank ALL of you for your support, and making this site what it is today! I'm so thankful for each and every one of you, and I'm so glad I'm able to share this little bit of the web with you all. :)]]> 1261342023 Sun, 20 Dec 2009 13:47:03 -0700 http://www.spareoom.net?subaction=showfull&id=1259645599&archive=
I now have three brand-new stills from the VdT movie up in the gallery! :D You can view them here. Filming is now completed on the movie, so now it's just time to sit back and watch as news and photos trickle in until the trailer is released sometime next spring!

I'm getting excited...what about you?]]> 1259645599 Mon, 30 Nov 2009 22:33:19 -0700 http://www.spareoom.net?subaction=showfull&id=1256841230&archive= Signature Blend Contest is now closed! A huge thanks to everyone who participated and voted. :D Look for the winners posted soon!

ETA: Winners are now announced! :D Check them out here, and congrats and thanks to everyone!]]> 1256841230 Thu, 29 Oct 2009 11:33:50 -0700 http://www.spareoom.net?subaction=showfull&id=1256046107&archive= Signature Blend Contest is now open! Head on over and pick your favorites, and check back in a week for the winners! :D]]> 1256046107 Tue, 20 Oct 2009 06:41:47 -0700 http://www.spareoom.net?subaction=showfull&id=1255965929&archive= Signature Blend Contest is now over! A huge thank you to everyone who participated. I have to say I was quite surprised and overwhelmed by the response to this contest...we had far more people participating than in the last contest, and there were some really phenomenal blends submitted. I haven't got a clue on how I'm going to narrow it down to the top five in each event and make my picks; there's so many great graphics!

There will be an opportunity for everyone to vote on their favorite blends, so keep an eye out for that today or tomorrow. :)]]> 1255965929 Mon, 19 Oct 2009 08:25:29 -0700 http://www.spareoom.net?subaction=showfull&id=1255230058&archive= here.

Enjoy, and leave me a comment in the Guestbook letting me know what you think! :)

P.S. Don't forget to enter in the Signature Blend Contest! There's a little over a week left to enter, so don't be shy!
