Contest Results

We have our winners!
Here is how we did the drawing. I printed out a long, long list of all entries and cut them into strips of paper. Took me darn near all day to do it, but I got it done. (I had planned to use an old popcorn tin to put the entries into, but couldn't find it. Turns out my wife threw it out a couple of weeks ago so I had to use a bucket.)

The first winner!

My son didn't want his face in the photos, and my wife refused to be photographed at all. Sheesh!

The Winners
All winners were sent an e-mail, and had one week to respond back to claim their prize.
I had stated that in the event that one or more of the winners didn't respond, I would draw out new winners to take their place, until I had ten winners. I thought that one winner had not responded, but after I announced the substitute winner I found the response in my ISP's spam box, even though they aren't supposed to be filtering my mail. So I decided I would go ahead and let her be a winner as well as the substitute winner. Except the substitute winner did not reply. This time I checked my mailbox and my ISP's spam box very carefully, and no mail, so if you were the substitute winner, and if you did respond most likely it was filtered at your end.
Anyway, my original list of ten winners will receive their CDs, and if my substitute winner will find some way of contacting me, they will get one too. Oh, because of the delay in getting the new CDs done (the animated jigsaw puzzles are the holdup) and because I'm a semi-nice guy, I'm going to randomly pick out two more names and make it an even dozen winners. Look for an e-mail coming from the same address you had to use to enter the contest with. I will add the names in below shortly.

Here is the list of winners, by their first name and last initial (if they gave it) and the name of their ISP. Note - I am not including the full e-mail address or names here, for privacy purposes.

News about the upcoming CD-ROM
For all the other people who entered, look for an e-mail from me in the next couple of weeks with a link to where you can get your 50% discount on the new CD. Or CD's, as it were, as soon as I have them ready to go.
That's right, the new CD will actually be two CD's in one package. I am working on creating a lot of animated jigsaw puzzles and, because of their size, will end up having to use a second CD to fit them on. If you've enjoyed my animated puzzles in the past, then you are going to love these.
Stay tuned, and I will post more info as I get closer to having them done. The first CD is about 90% done, and the animated puzzles CD is about 60% done. Whew, it takes a while to do these animated puzzles!
