🙁 I would have entered your Raving Rabbid creation!
Isn’t this supposed to be in the Spore section of the site?
Yep…Unforunately it looks as if sticky-ing a post overrules the code to place it into the Spore section… I can’t seem to find the code for that in WordPress to make modifications to it.
Oh, it’s fine, I wasn’t complaining, just wondered about that. 🙂
Hey Judson, you need to update the rest of the post, as there are a few changes there to! Like the deadline is extended by 24 hours.
Thanks, it’s been updated 🙂
Ends tomorrow! 🙂
He’s falling a little behind on the schedule…Round two should start kicking off soon….I’ll see what the timeframe is.
