I’ve always wanted to put together a giveaway to show my appreciation to all of my friends and colleagues for helping Photos By Rikki get to where it is today. A few weeks ago, the site passed a great milestone that I would like to celebrate — 1000+ “Likes” on my Facebook page! With the help and generosity of my friends, I have put together a cool giveaway that I’m sure you’ll Like.
I’m so excited and thrilled to share this giveaway with all of you so enter now and I hope you win! Winners will be chosen at random.

Matt from H2Blogs is giving away a ProPhoto template for WordPress. The template is currently one of the hottest designs for sale at the ProPhoto Store. If you’re already a ProPhotoBlogs user then you’re in luck. If you haven’t made the jump to a blog style website, I suggest to take a peek at what ProPhoto can offer you. You can see a full demo of the template here.

LOL! Sure
I am entered! Is it all right if I commented under one of their posts thanking them for the giveaway? Facebook blocked me from writing messages on walls because I was “overusing” the feature:-)
There’s still time to enter Robin!

Rikki – thank you for your giving spirit. It’s people like you who make the world a better place. Sharing your knowledge means more to aspiring photographers like me than you know!

Liked the vendors. :) Andrea Townsley, andrea.townsley [at] hotmail.com. I saw that ebook the other day and was wishing I could spare the extra money right now so it would be especially awesome to win that. Too bad my brain is too fried from my day job to think of something witty to say. Since I’m your fan now, hopefully you will inspire my inner smartass and I can make you laugh on your FB page. :D
I would sure “like” to win! (Sorry, that is about as witty as I get :-P)
I don’t have a Twitter account, so instead I pinned you on Pinterest!

Thank you..Thank you..Thank you for all you do! You are a wonderful, giving caring person. I am at the fork in the road; DO WHAT YOU LOVE; PHOTOGRAPHY. And decisions are easier when you have guides, signs, angels on your path.
Your work is amazing! I would love to get my hands on your book!
