Just a quick reminder that the New Moon Celebration Poster Contest is ending tomorrow at 11:59PM EST. Be sure to submit your entries to the comments thread on the contest before then! There have been some terrific entries, and I can’t wait to see who you guys choose as the winner.
Just for fun, here is a hilarious old Twilight interview that I saw on Robsessed and TwiCrack.
That’s right folks! We’ve been working on a new design for the top of the site for a while, and it’s ready. The big change, besides the spiffy new picture, is the handy links to features that you might have missed and to items such as the current contest and New Moon Celebration.
Thanks so much to AnaB, who made the gorgeous Jacob/Bella/Edward graphic that I used for the Header. It looks fantastic, doesn’t it? Be sure to check out more of her work at her web gallery: http://anab.deviantart.com , or contact her at anabdesign@gmail.com to let her know what a great job she did.
I mixed her creation with a Creative Commons Licensed Photo from AtomicJeep to make it the full width.

Five of the top sites covering New Moon–your humble host included–were asked by Reelzchannel to participate in an article about our five most anticipated scenes that will be in the New Moon movie. Here’s a sample of what we had to say: [SPOILERS AHEAD!]
His Golden Eyes:
Bella, Jacob, and Mike at the movies — This is one of the lighter moments in the story. This scene provides some much-need comic relief after Bella’s comatose months. It’s nice to see Bella moving forward, and let’s face it, as much as we adore the pesky-but-adorable Mike Newton, him puking his poor little guts out will provide us with countless laughs.

Check out this unbelievable new wallpaper in the style of retro travel postcards from the ’50s! It’s as if Edward Cullen himself sent you a souveneir from his travels in Volterra, Italy where the Volturi reside. The wallpaper is available in super-high resolution widescreen (1920px by 1200px ) and standard monitor sizes exclusively on our New Moon Movie Wallpapers page.
UPDATE: Congrats to the winners! The winners, chosen at random are “Cheddarcheese” and “Blondie_Jo”. They will be receiving the Twilight Score. Congratulations!!!

The only rule is that, in order to give some color and personality to the comments, you’ll have to upload a picture of anything you like to show up instead of the boring gray face.

Be as outlandish as you want! It doesn’t have to be practical or realistic. I’m curious what everyone really wants for the Holidays. It’s always fun to dream. Me? I’ll take a Volvo C30 with Emmett in the passenger seat. So what can you win?…. [click to continue…]
