I will announce the winners August 1st if I can get the count completed.
If you are an existing subscriber your memberships will be extended for 2 more years.
I will be screening the profiles to keep porn spammers out as well and be honest. You'll only cheat yourself.
Use your banners and other tools to invite others in emails or word of mouth.
