One Year Old Today!



Happy Birthday Craig-Parker.Net! On July 31st of 2002 this website went online for the first time.
A big thank you to everyone that has visited and contributed to the site! Special thanks to Skybly, my “tech admin,” TO_elf, my “assistant editor,” and to BananaManager, ValkyrieCrush and Rebecca Kirkland, for all their help.
And of course a big thank you to Craig himself. 😀
The DVD drawing is now closed. Congratulations to Theresa Tyler who has won the extended version FOTR DVD!

DVD Drawing

While at a preview screening for Pirates of the Caribbean two weeks ago, I won a copy of the Fellowship of the Ring extended DVD. Since I already have a copy, I thought it might be fun to give it away for free to celebrate the one year anniversary of craig-parker.net, which is on July 31st. The DVD is in US format, so please only enter if your DVD player is compatible! If you’d like a chance to win this DVD, send an e-mail to contest@craig-parker.netby July 30th. I’ll choose one e-mail at random to win on July 31st and the winner will be notified by e-mail. If you have any questions, please e-mail me at the regular e-mail address of bear@craig-parker.net as I will not answer any messages sent to the contest address. Please enter only ONCE.
GOOD LUCK!
