Do you need a blog? Does your current blog have small photos or a poor layout? Do you need a blog designed especially for photographers?
This is your opportunity to win the $900 Into the Darkroom Hyperlyte Blog. This blog is well organized and perfect for showing off the “MCP Magic Blog It Boards” and large photos.
THE CONTEST:
To enter this contest, you need to do all of the following:
1 – Use a “Magic Blog It Board” with your photographs. You can use any of them from Set 1 or 2. If you do not own these, you can grab the “Try Me” one from my website and use that. These actions are compatible with Photoshop CS2 and higher. If you have v7 or CS, you can download the free one, run until it stops. Then manually insert photos using the clipping masks. This takes away the “magic” but allows you to participate in the contest.
2 – Post the completed “Magic Blog It Board” on your current Blog, Website, Flickr, Facebook, or on a photography forum (if the forum rules allow). This must be posted on or after the introduction of today’s announcement of the contest.
3 – Tag the posted “Magic Blog It Board” with “MCP Actions” and “mcpactions.com.”
4 – Link your “Magic Blog It Board” to https://mcpactions.com. You can write whatever you want to beyond that.
5 – Post in the comment section for this contest (do not email me directly), with a link to where you did all of the above steps.
HOW THE WINNER WILL BE SELECTED:
The winner will be selected on the evening of December 15th via random drawing. The person selected must have completed steps 1-5 or I will select a different winner.
Good luck everyone – this is an amazing prize.

Courtney DeLaura on facebook
good luck to everyone!!!
I’ve been dreaming of these ITDR Blogs for a while now. My current blog needs a face lift, but I do have fun with my “Blog It Boards”! Thanks!
Whoops, I forgot to link to my facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=234534&l=233c7&id=1043919633
Thanks for the extra boost to try the Magic Blog It Board, Jodi!! I didn’t think I could use it with PS7 but it so totally rocked (with your directions of course!)! LOVE what I was able to do!!! You are my PhotoShop Easy Button!!! THANKS!! And you can check out my board at http://www.photoartbyjenn.blogspot.com.
You can find the completed steps at http://www.leslieroark.net (or in case I have new posts before you see it) http://www.leslieroark.net/2008/12/magic-blogit-boards.html. Thanks so much for this awesome contest!
Oh the board is so nice!! you can see mine at http://karatography.wordpress.com/2008/12/03/some-boudoir-from-nicole
What a fun idea! I posted one this morning! I think I might have to get a set! They’re cute and funky.
http://blogs.mariannewilson.net/
Love your actions, Jodi! I use the retouch ones every day. I couldn’t do what I do without them. You can find my post on FB as I don’t have my blog happening yet. The link is:
http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1315365319&ref=name#/profile.php?id=1315365319&v=feed&viewas=1315365319
I wasn’t sure how to tag the images in FB to your keywords. If I befriend you, will it work then? Also, I made a large one for my wall, but had to put the link directly above it, as it wouldn’t let me link in the photo paragraph. If anyone knows how to do this, I’d be happy to change it. But your name and site are listed many times.
I updated my blog post with a link to https://mcpactions.com/. I wasn’t sure if we’re supposed to but don’t want to be eliminated from the contest. LOL.
Oooo Jodi, I LOVE this blog it board! Totally wicked and sooooo easy! Thanks for sharing!!! I posted mine on my blog and my flickr
here is the blog:
