    Nope. The winner will be person whose domain we select.

    The random draw will be done with everyone’s name in a hat.

    That’s right. What this means is that you can suggest 10 domains and one of them is the best, then you win the 8-gigger. If yours isn’t the best, you still get ONE entry in the random draw (not 10).

    On a side note, what happened to your MyAvatars plug-in Ed?

    MyAvatars + new theme + IE7 = fubar.

    Hmmmm…. I forgot to check my blog in IE7 since I added the last couple of plugins. My home machine just has IE6, it’s here at work that I have IE7 so that I can test, but I always forget. Now you got me worrried….
