The treat is a nice one as mentioned above the trick is to receive it you must correctly capture the images that make up a word.All the images are in the WindowBlind itself.The word is the root for a commonly used Halloween word (term).
The rules:
#1 You must capture the images and assemble them to form the word.

(*email subject=community contest,*email must contain the word typed out and your Wincutomize user name!!!)
The requirements:
#1 You must be a Wincustomize member before release date of the Windowblind.
#2 In your Wincustomize profile it must state your country of origin.
(this is important to determine time zone)
#3 The email address you send from must be your registered address on your home page here
at Wincustomize.(this is to verify identity )
NOTE: IF YOU NEED TO ENTER AN EMAIL ADDRESS HERE AT WINCUSTOMIZE OR UNCHECK HIDE MY EMAIL PLEASE DO SO BEFORE ENTERING SUBMISSION!WE NEED THESE THINGS FOR VERIFICATION , TO RECOGNIZE SUBMISSION!
How the winner is chosen:
#1 Simple first correct answer

Additionally a short "HOW TO" for screen capture for anyone not sure how .

Congratulations to those who have cracked AVMAN's cunning puzzle. As soon as I get the names of the winners and all the details necessary to have the prizes registered to your respective accounts, you'll receive the prizes of your choice. At the moment we're still waiting for the final winner, so you have a little time to look around at the skins on offer.
Now because this is a Community effort, you are not limited to Premium Suites, you are welcome to choose from the Master Skins available in the WindowBlinds gallery. As long as each winner sticks to their respective $10.00 limit, that's fine, so you could even choose 2 of those, depending on the skins price. So the option is their to support your local skinners.
Finally, because vStyler and AVMAN have both now generously added to the total prize fund, we still have some to be won. So we're gonna have a bit of fun that will finish on Halloween. No puzzle this time, open to any existing Wincustomize member, you'll just need to bring your own imagination and then cross your fingers for the lucky dip.
We'll add more over the next day or 2. So keep your eyes out for a new thread.
Thanks to everyone who played along, see you in the new thread soon.
