DWB IS BACK !!!!!

and yes, it deserves capitals for THAT announcement !

I have let mum take over my blog just for today, as we need to make a very impawtant announcement about DogsWithBlogs.

WE ARE BACK !!!!

After losing some enthausiam for the site after Charlie passed away, and being alittle overwhelmed at the job ahead of us - we have managed to secure some wonderful support and help - so we are ready to relaunch and go full steam ahead !

We have also had an "issue" with Mars Confectionary, who requested us to change some elements of our site as they thought it resembled too closely their Schmacko's brand. Long story short, we now have the opportunity to create a new DWB front page banner, and Bone Zone banner.

So............

Here's the deal......

We are hoping all our members may be able to help us do this. What we want is any of the following -

* Send us a pic of your dog with what you think represents DWB (could be your dog sitting at a computer, or playing with other dogs, or reading a blog etc etc - use your imagination)

* Design a new DWB banner for us - incorporate your dog, or whatever you thing symbolises DWB.

There are two categories that we need to fill - we need to create a new DWB Banner for the front page, and also a new banner for The Bone Zone. Banner shapes should be organic, not rectangular.

Please note - all entries should be original and not based on any existing 3rd party marketing which may cause us to receive infringement of intellectual property action, again :)

Please send your submissions to -

opyatgruffpuppydotcomdotau (without "the bits")

Submissions open immediately and run through to April 15th - and then Greg and I will make our decision as to who has come up with the best banners.

Comeon everyone - please help us get DWB back on track !

Remember - doesn't matter if you aren't a 'graphic genius', send us a photo with an idea - just contribute !

Also, we have "unlocked" the DWB Bone Zone award nominations - so, off we go again - please nominate over at the Bone Zone for Awesome Blog Award, Post of the Month, and Photo of the Month. Let's get this moving !

Thanks everypup.
