Title: Curefans.com New Design 2006.10.02
Post by: dsanchez on September 28, 2006, 15:50:29
Curefans.com, one of the largest and most active communities of Cure fans worldwide will reveal its new design this Monday, the 2nd of October. The release follows the recent change in which the Curefans staff switched to a more robust, functional, and faster format to support the thousands of messages posted by the community. The new design will be inspired by the winning logo created by Yves.

The Curefans community was founded on the 25th of June last year. Since then 16,000 messages have been posted, and the number of members has grown to nearly one thousand. Nearly every minute a new message is posted â€" including links to news, photos, live recordings, guitar tabs, and much more.

To launch the new design, the Curefans staff will be offering several prizes, including the following:

- 2006.04.01 London Royal Albert Hall DVD
- TV appearances DVD
- FLAC shows on data DVD
- 1989.05.10 Brussel DVD

... and more


There are two ways to win:

1. Members will be entered into a random drawing for prizes based on the number of posts they make on the day the new design is revealed. Each post will count as an entry and thus increase the odds of winning. However, "thank you" posts and posts devoid of meaningful content (as determined by the Curefans staff) will not be counted.

2. Members can also win by answering the secret question posted in one of the sub-forums on the day the new design is revealed.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact one of the Curefans staff members.

Good luck and enjoy the new site,

The Curefans staff.

It feels like it sometimes...

Ha, I wish there was an endless supply of high-quality Swing Tour videos, but that's not the case unless you filmed them yourself.

Yes, I'm a bit bored with Dream Tour videos. :smth015
