Too bad.... I can't enter because I don't have a MySpace, Twitter, or Facebook account. I'm not willing to join any of them, just for the sake of entering a contest. I would think posting about the contest on one's blog would be quite enough. Oh well... I will enjoy seeing what everyone else makes.

Maybe I am a bit confused, maybe someone else who actually is entering the contest is wondering this.

Your contest heading reads, "Win $1,000 Free Shopping,
House of Gems Featured Artists Contest"

Yet, I don't see that any of the prizes are for "$1,000 Free Shopping". Unless, the winners win said dollar amount in cash AND $1,000 free shopping.

If in fact no one wins "$1,000" free shopping", shouldn't the contest be advertised truthfully reading, "Win $250 free shopping"?

I am really enjoying the discussion. This contest or our previous contests never said one person can win $1000 free shopping. This contest was truthfully $1000 free shopping contest, third prize winner gets $50 free shopping does not mean it is $50 contest.
