<p>To all our sponsors, thank you very much! :D Without your generosity, there would be no contest! So if you haven&#8217;t bookmarked Pink for October, what are you waiting for? I&#8217;ll be back on <strong>Thursday, October 2nd</strong>, with our first <a href="http://pinkforoctober.org/2008/09/its-super-fun-contest-time/" title="It's super-fun contest time!">contest</a>. See you then! :D</p>
<p><em>If you&#8217;d noticed, we have more sponsors now than we have contests (remember I was planning on 2 contests per week, on Mondays and Thursdays, for four weeks?). But that shouldn&#8217;t be a problem. We&#8217;ll figure things out along the way. I&#8217;m sure.</em></p>
<p><strong>P/S: We are no longer accepting sponsorships because we now have 4 extra prizes, and I need to think of more contests so that those prizes can be given away before October ends. And I&#8217;m not exactly a creative person, LOL.</strong></p>
