new layout up over at the
forums! It's called "Bella in the Sky" (I'm so creative, aren't I? Lol) and it features Emily Browning as Bella. Hope you guys like it! :D

First Contest!
Posted by Michelle on 14 Jun 2007 || 1 Comments
Hey guys! I've finally decided that it's about time to start BellaAndEdward{dot}com's first
contest! Yay! Okay, so it's going to be a blend contest and you have to make a blend (ha... yeah). Here are the rules/guidelines:
- I will only be accepting ten entries so hurry and submit!
- Do NOT put your name on it anywhere.
- Please make sure the blend is no larger than 500x300 pixels (give or take a few pixels).
- When you are done with it, email it to me, do NOT post it on the forum or anywhere else! My email is michelle(at)bellaandedward.com.
- The deadline is June 30th regardless of how many entries I have!
- The blend must be Twilight related, anything within that "range" is accepted.
Yeah, that's basically it, we will start voting on July 1st. I will decide how long the voting will last when I get all of the entries. There will be first, second, and third places winners (unless, of course, I don't get enough entries). Winners will get a cool award graphic and they will be announced on the August CullenCast! So what are you waiting for? Start blending!
100,000 Hits!
Posted by Michelle on 13 Jun 2007 || 4 Comments
Oh wow! I looked over at the side bar this afternoon and I was like: "Holy crap! We're almost to 100,000 hits!" You can't imagine how excited I was (just ask Julia

) Lol, anyway, I'm pleased to announce that BellaAndEdward{dot}com has finally reached
100,000 hits! Yes! And I made a little graphic to celebrate :D

I made it just because I was so excited (and bored, lol) but if you can think of any creative way to put it to use then be my guest! Before I go, I want to take this time to thank everybody who is part of that "100,000 hits", the people who have visited the site since it opened in October of last year!
Thank you guys for visiting and for being such obsessive Twilight fans!

Casting Suggestions
Posted by Michelle on 13 Jun 2007 || 1 Comments
I've added all of the
Casting Suggestions that have been flooding my inbox. And to tell you the truth I set them aside in another folder,until they started to scream at me, lol. Then I
had to put them on the site... I was just being lazy.

Avatars from Gallery
Posted by Michelle on 10 Jun 2007 || 1 Comments
I've moved all of the remaining avatars from the gallery to the actual site. I will end up deleting the ones in the gallery someday so just be warned of that. I think there were only 19 avatars made by
Winona and I've moved them all to the
avatar page. You can see them under "Made by Winona".

Hey guys! A few people have been wanting a catagory on the forums just for
CullenCast, so I'm pleased to annouce the CullenCast catagory on the

Book Pages Updated
Posted by Michelle on 06 Jun 2007 || 1 Comments
I've updated the New Moon book page with the New Moon summary from BarnesAndNoble.com. Also I've taken away the short summaries because I found them to be pointless.
Avatars by Winona
Posted by Michelle on 05 Jun 2007 || 1 Comments
I've added
9 new avatars made by
Winona. Thanks Winona and I'm sorry for not putting them up earlier!



New Wallpaper
Posted by Michelle on 04 Jun 2007 || 1 Comments
I've added a new wallpaper that I made yesterday. It comes in three sizes: 1280x1024, 1027x768, and 800x600. Enjoy!

Graphics Pages
Posted by Michelle on 04 Jun 2007 || 1 Comments
I've moved all of the graphics from the gallery to pages on the actual site so now you can just right click and "save as" from the media pages. So if you want avatars, go to Media>>Avatars and all of our avatars will be there, same with wallpapers. I'm still working on the other graphics so they should be up shortly. All the graphics are still in the gallery and I don't know if I should take them down or not... so yeah. We'll see about those later!

Molly for making FOTM for June 2007! You can read what she has to say about Twilight on the side bar <--- or on the Fan of the Month page. Congrats Molly!
Also, I've added a new page on the site where you can view all of our
past layouts. Some of the dates aren't exact so I apologize for that.

Posted by Michelle on 01 Jun 2007 || 6 Comments
Hello! As you can probably see, we have a new layout up! Yay! I've actually had this one for a very long time, I just didn't put it up, lol. Well, now it's up and I hope you guys like it! There might be a few little things I need to tweak up a bit, but other than that, it should work fine. Some of you may have noticed a few things wrong with the other layout we just had. I'm proud to say that I've fixed all of those problems and we're back as good as new! :)
Edit// Also, I've added three new link back buttons:

go post a comment and see!
