Out from the shadows: Say "G'day" and WIN!!!
Out From The Shadows: Say "Gday" And WIN!!!
Dear AusBonsai Lurker,
It has come to our attention that of our 420 or so registered Members, less than half have ever posted here (and less than half of them have posted more than a handful of times).
In the interests of fostering a friendly environment for Bonsai discussion, we are offering a luxury suede leather tool roll to coax our silent Members to speak up.
"A LUXURY SUEDE TOOL ROLL?!!" you ask. "What do I need to do to win such a cool prize?"
Entry into the draw to win the suede tool roll is simple:
[1] Register as an AusBonsai Member (if you haven't already). Click here to see a simple tutorial on how easy it is to join.
[2] Fill in your profile via the User CP. Please include your location (the nearest city/town, state and country is fine) - knowing your approximate location helps us build a sense of community.
[3] Post your first ever message at AusBonsai.com in The Bonsai Cafe! You will need to start a new topic by clicking on the NEW TOPIC button in the Bonsai Cafe forums. Please include a brief introduction, and a short explanation about how/when you first became interested in Bonsai.
[4] Wait for the draw! In the meantime, you have already broken the ice, so you might as well start posting your Bonsai photos, questions and stories for your new friends at AusBonsai.com!
The winner will be drawn on Tuesday 30th June 2009. The lucky winner will be notified by PM and the results published on AB.C. The tool roll will then be posted Australia wide at our cost. If the winner is from outside of Australia, postage will be at their cost.
Welcome aboard, and good luck in the draw!
Regards,
Steven
