By Hi friends! From quite a long time I’ve been planning to host a contest at my site. Due to lack of time and various other reasons I wasn’t able to keep a contest on our blog. Finally after a long time I’ve decided to keep a contest here. This is for the first time a contest has been held at Blogging Junction where you can win themes and software and plugins and banners. In the past I kept competitions where you could win banners, but this time we are a little advanced or you can say we are one step further.
Lets See The Prizes:
–> First Prize:
Theme Junkie FashionPro Theme ($19.95) + Theme Junkie ClearType Theme ($19.95) + Handy Backup Standard License ($30)
= ($19.95+$19.95+$30) = $70 approximately
–> Second Prize:
OIO Publisher Advertising Manager WordPress Plugin ($47)
= ($47) = $47 approximately–> Third Prize:
Theme Junkie FashionPro Theme ($19.95) + Theme Junkie ClearType Theme ($19.95)
= ($19.95+$19.95) = $40 approximately
–>Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh Prizes:
125px x 125px ad banner ($10 x 4)
=$40
So you’ve got a chance to win $197 worth prizes ($70 + $47 + $40+$40 = $197) or round off = $200.
Prizes Description:
–> Theme Junkie FashionPro Theme ($19.95)
This theme comes with many great features. It has inbuilt thumbnails creating capabilities i.e. no need to enter custom fields. It has a powerful control panel where in we can change the thumbnail dimensions and other useful settings. This theme comes with a featured content slider, breadcrumb (Both work without any plugins). It comes with fields to enter blog tracking codes like statistics and Google Analytics and what not. It comes with many inbuilt pages like Archives, Full Width page, Etc.

–> Theme Junkie ClearType Theme ($19.95)
This theme comes with many great features like the last one. This theme also offers features that are offered by the theme mentioned above, FashionPro. This theme offers a simple yet very very attractive look. Its simple, i.e. very easy to develop!
More Information: http://www.theme-junkie.com/themes/cleartype/
Both the themes have been donated by Roy Guan of Theme Junkie. Thanks Roy!!
–> Handy Backup Software ($30)
Handy Backup is an easy-to-use program designed for an automatic backup of your critical data virtually to any type of storage media including CD/DVD-RW devices and remote FTP servers. You can use Handy Backup to make a reserve copy of any valuable data on your system.
The one offered as a prize here is standard edition and is usable by only one user.

–> OIO Publisher Advertising Manager WordPress Plugin ($47)
OIO Publisher is the best premium advertising solution for your WordPress blog. Its currently the only plugin that offers complete advertising management of your WordPress blog or site. It comes packed in with many incredible features. It is feature full. OIO Publisher plugin has all the features one can probably think of.

Thanks for participating in the contest!
Oops i forgot to mention my FB id. My name is Abhi Bharti
That’s okay man!
I left this contest because i thought someone more needy than me can i take the advantage of this contest.
So sad you leaving the contest, anyways it’s your wish!
I think urs second, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh Prizes are best one. All others are really boring in ma case. Because all the themes u specified in this contest as prizes are available for download for freely. I am giving one sample link
(Link Removed)
And in the case of OIO publisher. There are 2 versions (free and costly) available. Are u sure that u specifying the $47 edition? then tats gud. Otherwise it is also waste. waiting for reply. I am writing this only for ur sake. Becoz most of the bloggers have knowledge abt the torrents and rapidshare
Am I not trusty? I am not a person supporting piracy. You said the themes I’ve mentioned are available for free! I think you need to see the product page and then tell me!!!! They are totally paid themes! You gave me the rapidshare link and not to my shock it was illegal! And let me tell you, when you host a contest at your blog and suppose you offer any prize be it IDM or so, they all are available in internet for free from illegal sites. So why mention those illegal links here? I am giving an original copy and fully legal version of the themes. For verification you can contact the theme author at theme-junkie.com. You will better trust him, I guess or there is no other alternative.
As you said OIOPublisher, there are two versions available – free and paid. I think you didn’t read their product site properly? Read their FAQ properly here,
http://www.oiopublisher.com/faq.php
Currently there is no free version available. They now have only pro version, no free version. This makes sure that I am offering the pro version and note that its original. For verification you can contact the product owner at oiopublisher.com
You didn’t say anything about Handy Backup? Let me tell you that even that’s an original version. I won that copy myself and I haven’t used it till now. I wasn’t able to find anyone else to sponsor, so I gave my copy as prize as I am now the owner of the same and I can do whatever I want with it. Note that I haven’t use that copy of HandyBackup. I have all the necessary permissions for giving the software Handy Backup as prize from where I won it.
All the readers, please note that all the themes, plugins, softwares I will give are fully original and supported by their authors. For verification please contact the respective authors. Sorry for being rude Jasir.
Also for your notice I’ve removed your banner and instead added a link back in the sidebar. Actually there were many banners and they all were cluttering the sidebar and increasing the page load time. SO you may or may not remove my banner from your site, your wish.
I am not removing your banner. I gave the facts. And for the rapidshare links, I am really sorry that. I think i should post it as like u did in comment. And one more times, me also against the illegal softwares and materials. Nice to see the link removed option. thats gud that opened my eyes. Really sorry my behavior.
Your behavior was good. No problem anytime with it, just you got confused with the prizes. BTW, the theme thats offered for free in theme-junkie site is “Fashionpress” and I am giving “Fashionpro”. Fashionpress if a free one, Fashionpro is the premium one.
I didn’t remove the banner because of my anger, but because sidebar was full as the “Our Friends” number of links has been increasing.
Earlier i was leaving it but now i have joined it. So i am taking part in it. count me in
.
Good to see you back again in it!
Great contest Saksham.I will try to participate.BWN you did not mention the last date of participation if I am not wrong.One more thing great to see another blog(WEJUNK) from you.
I have mentioned in the note box. Anyways, the I will choose the winners on 20th April midnight and that’s the last day of entries too.

Hi, Saksham, here I am. Its nice to be a part of this great contest that you are running on your blog, please count me in. I am through with the above steps you mentioned except for writing a post. My limitation is that I write exclusively on health and fitness related topics on my blog and a post on this contest would be a bit out of the context, hope you understand my point, otherwise it would have been my pleasure to write for your contest. Though I am a regular visitor to your blog because I learn a lot from reading your wonderful, educative and informative posts.
Any way all the best for the contest.

But I still did not understand one thing…If the contest will be decided using Random.org then how will the points help?
Netchunks´s Last blog ..Contest Season around the Blogosphere – Blog-O-Status
Suppose if a user does all the steps including the post, he gets (2+2+2+5=11) points. This means he has 11 tickets. Similarly others too will get tickets. The first entry if has 11 points will get tickets from 1-11. The second if has 11 points too will get tickets from 12-22. As there are seven prizes, I will visit http://www.random.org/sequences, and add 1 number in smallest value. In largest value I will enter the total number of tickets. In next column I will enter 7 as there are seven prizes. Then I will click on Get Sequence. Results will come in seven columns. The first number in all the columns are ids of winners. Suppose the number 152 comes in column one at first position, I will check who has got ticket number 152 and he will be the winner number one. Similarly other winners will be chosen. Hope its clear now?
Yup, you’re in!
Hope not late!
