We have seen many great threads in the Theming contest forum, and since many people may be having exams in June, the MyBB Fans team has decided that the deadline of the MyBB 1.2 Theming Contest be extended to July 31 2007. For those of you unfamiliar with the contest, we have 5 prizes up to $100 to give to the best five themes created in the theming contest. It is not too late to enter! See the contest section for more information about the contest.

Our “Guess When MyBB 1.4 Will Be Released” is still ongoing. We currently have just under 50 guesses submitted to the contest, so odds of winning are still pretty high compared to other lotteries and stuff out there In addition we are adding two additional guesses for each user, so every user will have a total of five uneditable guesses in the contest. See the contest section for more information about this contest.

Now an update about the MyBB Directory we have on our website: We are currently beta-testing a plugin script to grab statistics off of your forums. This should allow forums which are using a non-English language pack by default, or have modified their English language pack or templates to have their statistics on the directory. To get the plugin, please see this post.

You will be seeing some more interesting content on MyBB Fans in the coming weeks, including our launch a new feature on our site and it starts with the letter “p” (can you guess what it is?). We are also arranging for previews of MyBB 1.4 with the MyBB team, so get yourself ready for that!

We wish you a great day and good luck on the contests,
