Hi all

The 3rd Birthday Competition is now only 10 days away. You will notice the changes today the left bar, which will have a countdown to the competition and also proudly displays the sponsors of the competition. Without their support, there wouldn't be a competition and there wouldn't be prizes to give away! So thanks once again to the sponsors for donating prizes to the competition.

Coming as somewhat of a surprise, the 3rd birthday competition also happens to be timed well with our 3000 member milestone. Thanks to the incredbile level of activitiy sustained throughout the Total Lunar Eclipse last week, we had a remarkable number of new members registering in the space of a few days.

We passed 3000 registered members which is another fantastic achievement for the IceInSpace community.

So now the competition is to celebrate both milestones - turning 3, and reaching 3000 members.

Remember, only active members of IceInSpace who have been a member for at least 1 month, and have made at least 5 posts, are eligible to take part in the competition.

In the last of the Total Lunar Eclipse news, I've uploaded my images of the event to my Lunar Eclipse Gallery page.

Thanks and good luck in the 3rd birthday competition!
