WPCandy is having a contest, and we want you to take part in it. What’s up for grabs? Adriaan Pienaar’s Premium News Theme, a $99 value! You may have already seen some contests like this, but heck. We want to give our loyal visitors and subscribers something to win. This is our first contest, which is very exciting, so we’re going to make it easy and simple.
Read more on how to participate in this contest!
We’ve decided to give you 3 options to participate in winning the Premium News Theme:
- Post about WPCandy on your blog. This means you can write anything (good) about us (make sure to leave a trackback).
- Write a simple comment below saying what you would like to see from WPCandy in the future.
- Complete option #1 and #2: Post about WPCandy and write a comment (better chance of winning).
That’s all you have to do to participate in the contest! Now for the judging part. We’ll decide the winner who participated the most and had the best comment and/or post on their blog. Your best chance to win is obviously to do both parts of the contest.
We’re going to give you guys until the morning of Monday, November 12th to participate. The quicker you post/comment the better chance of winning. So get to it!
The winner will then be announced on the evening of Monday, November 12th. So stay tuned! We wish you all good luck and we look forward to doing more contests in the future.
UPDATE: Due to personal reasons, I will be rescheduling the contest winner this upcoming week. Please stay tuned.

I think what WP Candy has done so far has been great, but I’d love to see more spotlights on WordPress developers and WordPress-powered sites, especially ones that go outside of the typical WordPress blog sites that we’re used to seeing 100 times a day.
Keep up the great work, and here’s hoping I’ll win the contest!
hey mike, sounds like an awesome contest but I doubt it that my site will go online by the time this contest ends
wahhh oh well keep it up. WPCANDY IS THE BOMB!

hi, my english is bad, but i think that “WP-Candy” is a world of resource. I know them a short time and I wish them the best.
Enjoy!
great site..i would love more reference sheets.
Obviously im not going to enter lol seen as tho that would be rather stupid haha.
I really could not believe that your site is only 1-month old (or young) and it already had such great stats.
I hope you could feature more free rare/undiscovered WordPress themes in the future. I have posted about your blog on mine but I don’t think it’s sending trackbacks so here’s the link: http://monsterblog.kotsengkuba.com/2007/11/wpcandy-for-scholars-of-ust.html
Good luck and more great stats for your site. It’s nice to be here
I think it only sends trackbacks when your blog is powered by WordPress.
A trackback will be sent depending on the blogging platform used. I know WordPress usually aumotically sends one, and some other platforms do as well, but not all.
I win!
WordPress – Automatic Trackback
Typepad – Manual / Automatic with settings
Moveable Type – Manual / Automatic with settings
Expression Engine – Manual
Blogger – Manual
Wordpress.com – Manual / Automaitc with settings
Anyone who knows how to blog should know how to manually set a trackback
Would love to see a series of articles on .htacess
First of all, i found this site about a week ago, and readed throught all the posts, because they are great. all site is great, go for it… The site have good design, and great texts inside this good design… grow faster, and be better
jauns wordpress resurss – WP Candy…
Jau kādu mēnesi darbojas lapa wpcandy.com, atradu es viņu pats nesen, un tikko kā biju atradis, izlasīju ļoti daudz jauna un jauka šajā lapā, lapa attīstās diezgan ātri, un kā jau pēc nosaukuma var spriest, tad runa ir par wordpress saitu…
The thing is, I have already set the ping manually but it just doesn’t work.
It’s good to see the Adii love being spread around!
I’m also running a competition on my blog and Young Go Getter is giving away a copy of the Premium News Theme as well…
Actually what I would love to see more of on WPcandy are photoshop and possibly fireworks tutorials, detailing how to implement graphics produced by those tools with WordPress themes.
Thats rather nice idea. Me and Mike are thinking about writing tutorials, but it just fit in time to make them in an already busy schedule.
But keep checking back we’ll get round to it asap.
I’m already an RSS subscriber, so once you guys slap some interesting articles up, I’ll implement some of your ideas onto my blog.
Recently picked up Adobe CS3 Web Premium, so I’m really pushing to learn as much as I can.
I loved your header tutorial, but was never able to get it to work properly.
Hey JD, what header tutorial are you referring to?
would love to see blablabla@wpcandy.com emails, that would be great, you should think about doing it in the near future.

Thats not a bad idea actually. hmmm im sure me and mike will discuss all of the ideas that are made.
Keep them coming. The more ideas etc post blog all that stuff, that you post the better chance of winning the theme
I like that idea as well. That’s something I’m definitely considering to do. Mike and I will talk about it.
Who Win?
