Want A Free Subscription To WC ?

Sate Your Case Here

Thursday, March 22, 2007 by PoSmedley | Discussion: Community

My subscription is good til 2008. I wouldn't have had one at all if it weren't for the generosity of another WC member back in 2005. So, what I would like to do is offer up the subscription I won in the St. Patty's Day contest to someone who does not have a subscription at all.

Requirements...
1. You have to be a member, signed up prior to today's date (3/22/07) and not have a current subscription.

2. State your case here on why I should give you this subscription.

You have until noon tomorrow (3/23/07) to make your case, after which time I will pick one and announce it here by 7:00pm tomorrow night E.S.T.

EDIT - Also, whoever I pick will get the prize I was offered for the 'community poll' which is a Premium Suite (*Not a Master Suite) of their choice! You'll get to pick from one of the suites on this page WWW Link

Okay, I'm not entirely sure if I'm eligable for this contest or not, but I purchased Object Desktop 2007, and I am not a WinCustomize Subscriber. However, I would like to be. I enjoy PC Modification, skinning, graphic design and just having fun customizing the appearance of Windows. I think your kindness in this situation could, and would, help me to become a great graphic designer/skinner someday. I'm making this sound more like an acceptance speech than a consideration...what I'm trying to say, is that if I recieve the subscription, I will make full use of it. I hope you take the time to consider me this award.

Graciously Sincere,

AzDude I did not realize that MaRose did not have a subscription...I agree with everything you said...she is a sweetheart and has made me smile by both posting her ss's and commenting on mine. And it is bad with a couple family members & herself, and yet she only briefly mentioned it and still has the most wonderful attitude.

So my vote includes Bandit, pjdark & MaRose...

Myself I surely don't need it I'm sub'd till 2010 and plan to stay sub'd and sdc'd till eternity!

I appreciate all the support posted, but there are others posting here who need this chance more than I do...Po said state your case, and there are some great cases stated.
also, I didn't read the rules all that carefully, Rule #1 clearly states that the recipient cannot have a current subscription...mine doesn't run out until Friday. I guess this would technically take me out of the running.

If i have understand well (and you know my english not deserved sometimes ) there are two subscriptions to give here. Po' why not give one to a beginner who could make something for all of us and one to a older (with sub running out) who have made something for all of us and could make more? This is just a think that's all.

Way to go Po’, RPGFX & Night Train.....

I don’t know how you’re going to judge this Po’......but if you were to look at one from an ‘encouragement’ point of view, I would like to nominate a young member BlackDragon17. WWW Link (not sure if it's OK to put link...if not, please remove)... I really enjoy his work and would love to see more and think a membership would be good recognition and encouragement. ....Just a thought...........
Matrix R also very deserving here as well….as I’m sure there are many in other areas I’m not familiar with.....

Nice sponsorship of MaRose AzDude.....

Are you working on your loaves and fishes act Po’?... .....best of Irish luck to ya...I'm sure your decisions will be spot on...

I have been using windowblinds for many years. Long before you had to have a subscription to download apparently. Just recently I went back to my purchased windowblinds, only to find out that I cannot find anything to download.
I am shocked. I am glad the site has updated to where it is now, but I cannot afford a subscription. I was always able to get a skin downloaded before. Now, everywhere I look in the windowblinds gallery, it says I must have a subscription.
Why is windowbinds turned its back on me? I purchased windowblinds, but now I cannot get a skin. This isn't fair to me.
I have been with wincustomize a long time, from it's early beginning. Now my purchase seems to be invalid, my husband let me purchase and now our money spent is worthless.
I need a subscription badly. We who have been with you from the early beginnings, I feel, deserve to have skins that we can download without a subscription. After all,
I did purchase windowblinds.

Sydneysiders, thanks for than link, whether it was ok or not(assuming it was). I'd never seen his work, since i usually make my own logons, but i downloaded some, and they are AMAZING. If he's wanting a sub, i definitely think he should be allowed one. and with Bandit's sub running out, i still think he should get one, since he's been so helpful to me, and to many other people in the rare icon request thread. Just a quick reminder that...

I'll make you coooooookiess...
(not really, i just like to type coooooookiesss...)

currently i am a a senior high school student. money is tight since it all goes into college funds and saving for a new car (the one I have is on its last leg). I have always wanted a subscription to this sight, just never could afford one. Not saying the price is too high, just that my paycheck is to low.

I secondly would like to substantiate the case made by AzDude! Please refer to his prior comment and make that double, no triple for me!

MaRose is the real deal!

just thought i would throw my hat into the ring ...my daughter and i are getting into photoshop and learning(it was a gift,older version from a relative)i bought object dock and just upgraded to the window blinds so money is gone now!..she always runs over here looking at the skins here, picking through them .she is fascinated with the computer and creating. i think this would be a wonderful tool for her to learn with, and this is such a great community,its on her allowed list. so please pick me(her)...im not good at beggin so thats it, just would like for her to have it..thanks

This was one of the hardest decision I ever had to make. Everyone here is deserving and I wish had more to go around.

Just a couple things, first..
I'll make you coooooookiess...


I'm a beans and weenies , man. Ask around.

Whoever sent the 180 cases of fish-heads and kelp for the cats and SAM the turtle, you bribed the wrong ones and left out Neo. And you could have sent me some air freshener.

I've decided to give my prize to pjdark.

The one that RPGFX asked me to give out will go to cyberlee.

This was a really hard decision to make. A lot of you are good friends and I consider all of you family.

Thank you all for the kind words. I'm not doing anything special, just trying to pay it forward like someone did for me here.
