I am curious as to why some of my javascript html-snippets don't work.

I would really like to include a mobile detect and redirect script, as well as one from Wibiya for feedback etc.

One needs to be installed in the page header and the other before the main <body> tag.

It would be great if Moonfruit could enable this type of control

Hello Mr. Rathon,ok you said,that my websight is up, and running. well this is not the case, because, when i punch in this address,in the address bar, all i get is how to buld a websight. it goes on to tell me your websight is ready for viewing, but when i do a practise run, there is nothing there. all i'm trying to do, is get my web information out ther, so others may see it. i can not understand, why this is so diffucult for me. i'm almost at the point of giving up, on bulding a site,per your organization, because in actuality, it is not working for me!

I've also, like Damian, tried to get the html website to display a league table generated by Full-Time, the FA's website. It would be really useful for me to be able to display results and league tables direct from this site rather than having to manually change it each week.

PayPal now has a new trick, they keep a "rolling balance" of funds you get from sales, basically they take 8% of every sale you do and hold it for 90 days to help prevent charge backs, this will cripple some smaller sellers and companies working with tiny margins, I have worked for a company who works on 12% margins how can they expect people to survive in todays climate, I can see what they are trying to do but I think 90 days is quite excessive!?

Hi, i really want to use the directory to make a members list. But one thing stopping me is in Set A Link there is a Paypal option. I dont want this to be there, is there anyway to get rid of it. Also on the Paypal it mentions sitemaker, i obviously dont want this. If these things cant be changed is there any other way to make a members list ?

Here is my creative entry.. http://aum.moonfruit.com/#
The goal of this site is to give advice on creating a peaceful mindset and peace living. Also, it allows visitors to discuss peaceful living from meditation to community service. This reason why I think this site is special and should be picked is because Serenity is a universal need and want. Once people find ways to deal with their own suffering we can help other as spread compassion through being role models...

I also think I should be picked because a my mac just dead right before about to go off to school. Now, im computerless and going through mac withdrawal as I'm stuck borrowing my mother's vista laptop. Lolz

Design is one of those things which can mean so many different things depending on the designer. For some it can be a way of unleashing and stimulating creative and innovative ideas, and for others it can be a chore. To some, design is the means by which an end result is accomplished, but to others good design is the primary goal.

I used to see design as the art of creating pretty things; however, as my knowledge of design evolved so did my perception of it. I will be the first to admit that design can lead to beautiful and stunning pieces of art but is that all it is useful for? Could it be that design encompasses a much broader horizon? Since design is such a large field it only follows that Design can be so many different things for you or I. It can be the spark plug for the next big idea. It could be the means by which we as humans present ourselves in clear and concise manners. Regardless of what design means for each of us individually I think that it is safe to assume that Design should mean something to individually.

For me design is the process of communicating in the way I know best, through aesthetic appeal. My website is composed os mostly images, as I wanted to take the service that the good guys here at moonfruit are offering and test its boundaries. My goal was to take the simplicity of art and design and translate it into a website. Through easy navigation, quality content and a minimalistic feel I wanted to demonstrate the knowledge and intellect of a college student while demonstrating the purity and simplicity of a playful child.

Regardless of how well I do in this contest, I have had fun. I'm sure their are plenty of deserving people with excellent websites who have already entered. My website is supposed to reflect me, my personality and my creativity (or lack thereof ;) and I am very pleased with how my site turned out. Even doubling as an excellent portfolio! This mac would mean a lot to me, especially as an aspiring graphic designer with adobe creative suite and only windows 2000 to run it on.

Please check out my website, and leave a comment letting me know what you think about it.

Thanks everyone!
Sincerely,
Phil D.

Hi, Moonfruit!

I'm a recent graduate and freelance graphic designer who is just getting started on my own business (I launched my website less than a month ago!) I have been building my portfolio through a series of self-imposed projects, so when I heard about your contest I was excited to create a new website as well as submit an entry to win an Apple laptop!

My website is based on a fictitious singer-songwriter I came up with for a poster design. I had been wanting to build a matching website, and as it turns out, Moonfruit was just the tool for it! I love the flexibility of the program, and found the "page master" to be especially useful.

I hope to be picked because I feel I made Moonfruit my own, it has an out of the box design that is not constrained by templates or default settings. (I'm also currently sharing a computer with someone else, and my own would be soo helpful for my business!)

Hello!!
I created my website because I wanted to share with the world my creativity (which granted is not the best but I'm willing to cope with that). I will be attending college starting in August and will be studying in the field of journalism (you will hear more about that on my site) and I posted pictures of some of the "journalistic" things I did while in high school on the website. I really liked creating a site with Moonfruit because it felt like I was laying out a newspaper again, and that made me even more excited about college. I'm rambling and I'll end this comment with a thank you; thank you for this really cool contest and thank you for the extra practice I accidentally got in while making my website. =]
Have a nice day!!

There have been some great submissions here, even some not on Moonfruit (or without the MF in their domain name). I may not have such a good chance among these grands, but I'd like to give it a shot. I started creating this before you announced an 11th MBP giveaway, and was excited to hear about it when halfway finished.

My site: http://laurart.moonfruit.com

My passion in life consists of AA: Art and Animals. I've created art since I could hold the tools, and have loved animals from the moment I knew of their existence. I'd fearlessly walk up to big german shephards when I was a toddler. Now that I am old enough, I'm studying Art Education at my college to further expand my creative knowledge, and hopefully share that with kids and adults who may have trouble finding the key to unlocking their imagination. After graduation, I'm ambitious to pursuing a field that will allow me to get more involved with helping animals. For now, I do my part by pet-sitting, and taking a percentage of commission money to donate to local charities. I'm fresh on the market and as ambitious as ever to reach my potential, inspire others, and save lives.

For its simplicity, it gets to the point, and shows my big works as of late. There are a few things that still need completion, but it's hard gathering the right prices to attract the right customers. Thanks so much for your consideration. (Maybe even request a Moonfruit design? ;D Haha!)

hey moonfruit!

Wow! it was alot of fun making a website on moonfruit! it was easy and simple. probably even a caveman can do it. jk. My site that I built shows what I'm most passionate about and that is life and helping others.

Moonfruit simply allows anyone make a beautiful website with little or no experience, and that's what my site shows. I have NO experience in website making, design or anything of that sort. So to actually make such a beautiful webstie with the tools provide is simply amazing. I am glad it is easy to get your favorite content out there. you didn't have to worry about the design of the website.

I think my site is special because its very unique. the content may be the same as some other people but if you read the message on what im passionate about i think you'll understand why its so unique. my wesbite is beautiful and simple. the words built around moonfruit. BUILD BEAUTIFUL WEBSITES, SIMPLY.

Although my website isn't the best of the best just because i don't have any knowledge or skills in web design, or any of that stuff I believe moonfruit is the best out there. Believe it or not, but if i won the laptop i was going to give it away to a special someone THAT YOU CAN READ ABOUT IN MY BLOG entitled "life's too short". Although i could use a new computer I thought she would need it more than I would.

You for your time and all you have done Moonfruit!

Hi Moonfruit!

I had tons of fun making my web site. I had been trying to create one for about a year, with no luck at all. I found Dreamweaver and CSS to be very confusing. So, finding your web site was definitely lucky for me! I made my web site within a few days and I'm extremely happy with it.

My site is really important to me because I am a recent graduate from college, and I'm hoping to start a photography business. Therefore, I created a site to showcase my photography (and later, video). I wanted to site to be very clean and minimal, so as not to clash with my photos. I also created my own logo, which I think is very important in order to brand yourself and have people recognize your stuff.

I think my web site should win because it is one that is really important to me. I will use my web site to show my work to prospective clients and get jobs!

My site is: http://michelleconnolly.moonfruit.c... However, I have added my domain name http://michelle-connolly.com to it, so that may work by the time this contest is over! I've had my domain name since December of last year- that's how long I've been trying to create a web site that I'm satisfied with and now I finally have one- thanks to you guys!

Our school site is brill! ( www.waterortonprimary.co.uk)

I am the ICT manager at Water Orton Primary School and also do education consultancy work. I used Moonfruit to build my own website (www.katemacrae.co.uk) and loved it so much that I used it to design and build the school website. Moonfruit is so easy to use my 'Computer Crew' (a wonderful team of 10 and 11 year olds) have access rights to build pages as well to showcase what is going on in school. Staff are able to build pages (although the kids are much better at it!) and the site is very well used by both pupils and parents.

Our school website could be epic.... only held back by my lack of time to spend on it, but I love its versatility and the ease at which you can create a really attractive, informative page in just a few minutes. The kids love all the animations and text effects and I have to limit the number they can use on one page!

Once the html snippet is sorted, our aim next year is to have a live webcam feed from a nest box webcam! The html snippet can't quite cope with it yet!

We have great aspirations for our site and I aim to get more pupils having a real 'hands-on' chance to build pages, hopefully leading to them building their own website..... many are certainly more than capable!

Thank you, Moonfruit, for a wonderful product that continues to grow and evolve offering us more and more scope to continually add to and improve our school site.

Steve — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 13:59:06 +0100

Why I should win...

My original website was one of those awful one page sales letters that go on forever. My goal was to get as far away from that model as possible and make the site more appealing, practical and effective.

With moonfruit I was able to easily add valuable content and free video lessons to the site as well as providing samples of my DVDs which enabled me to streamline the sales copy, making my site far more user friendly, attractive and effective.

I’m delighted that I’ve been able to offer my customers a refreshing design and feel that moonfruit has enabled me to accomplish exactly what I set out to achieve.

The new site looks fantastic. I’m totally new to moonfruit and this is my first project but I’m already addicted. My site has taken just two days so far and I’m really excited to continue its development, as well as working on future projects.

Traditionally, websites designed to sell a single product have followed the one page sales letter template that goes on forever. You can view the site that I’ll be replacing with my sexy new moonfruit website at: http://tinyurl.com/pre-moonfruit

I wanted to show that it really doesn’t have to be that way and that there is a place for attractive design and multiple page content in the internet marketing industry.

I have a passion for massage and online marketing, but I’ve never had much success with the later. I feel that moonfruit has given me a way forward with my web design that will lead to a marked increase in online sales!

Plus... my existing laptop is held together with string! My sexy new site designs deserve a sexy new MacBook Pro!

Hello Moonfruit. My name is Oleg, i live in Moscow, Russia. I study Advertising at the State University of Management. I don't see other Russians in this contest, so i think i will be the first :) I saw the other contest's websites and, guys, i think it is awesome. You have done a big amount of work here. And now i want to represent you my site. I have a little story for you about it:

One month ago my laptop was stolen :( So today i use my pc. It is very old, it is very slow and so on. I made some kind of portfolio/homepage using this slow and old pc. So you can ask me: "Ok, but why your website is unique?"

Because there is one more thing.

I asked myself: "How you will make a website without your "Adobe Creative Suite" and other software with that slow pc?" And i've got an idea! I will make a website by using my browser only. So there what i have used:

1. http://www.moonfruit.com - site engine, fundamental thing.
2. http://www.pixlr.com - the alternative of photoshop.
3. http://www.sumopaint.com - image editor.
4. https://www.photoshop.com - photoshop express.
5. http://vectormagic.com - convert bitmap images to vector (alternative of illustrator).
6. http://www.favicon.cc - favicon maker.
7. http://browsershots.org - browser tests.
8. My wacom :)

That's why my site is unique. It wasn't easy (that's why im represent you my work so lately), but it was a great experience for me. I'm happy to participate in this contest, because i can show other people that it is possible. Of course, that "scheme" don't work without Moonfruit, so thank you guys for this nice service.

From Russia with love - http://aquareactor.moonfruit.com

Good luck to all!

Hi, there are alot of great website here so im not going to say i think i deserve the mac book because we all do.

I created my website to help other moonfruit users find new ways to make there moonfruit website that little bit better with websites and service i have found. MF Tools is free to use and you can also share with others tips and services that work with moonfruit, the website is not finished but i work on it every day.

I dont think there is a website like mine to help moonfruit users so i guess at the moment its one of a kind, i designed all the website my self and tried to keep it simple. This is what 5 months of hard work has built and im still going trying to finish it soon.

Just like to say good luck everyone.

Hi, I created my site totally on my own, doing all the designing and adding of the info etc... I dread to think how many hours i've put in over the last six months. I'm really proud of it though, I LOVED the storyline that the site is based on when it was broadcast a couple of years ago, so I finally decides to make a site at the end of last year and i've now got it looking (I think) pretty great. I'm also responsible for all the videos and so forth aswell. There are still a few adjustments that need to be made, but I kinda think it's good enough now to give the comp a shot. Cheers, Jon.

I have used several website creation software, including Google sites and Wix.com, but Moonfruit is by far the easiest. I like how it incorporates other services, such as Google Analytics and Google Web Master Tools. In fact, I'll writing a review for tech blog = www.thewreport.blogspot.com/

I'm a graphic artist and entrepreneur and have been a dedicated fan and member of Moonfruit pretty much just after it began when I discovered it. My design skills has grown up with it really as new tools have come in. Its great now to see just what you can create with all the Moonfruit widgets. I believe my site should win because I've learned that less is more in design and over cluttering a site just makes navigation and the whole site experience not the best, so people won't return. I've studied design over the years and I am constantly challenging myself with my new projects to create sites that are clean and look good because I believe that's what people want to see. I would absolutely love a Macbook Pro, it would really help me so much with my creativity and let me further my taste for design. Would be great to be able to work anywhere too and not be tied to my boring desk, so thanks for such a great prize as this.

Hey, Moonfruit! This is my first real website, and the tools you guys have provided not only made it easy, but it also made it look pretty awesome. In spite of the fact that I had to use a pre-made theme, I think I managed to put my own twist on it without making it too flashy or obnoxious. My site definitely represents me and my creativity. The site is simple, but sometimes simple can really be powerful. I tried to go outside of the box with the tools and the design. Unlike the other entries, my site doesn't have over 1,000 views, it only has one page, and it only opened today - But I'm hoping my little site is good enough. Thanks for the opportunity, Moonfruit - what you guys have been doing is great. Good luck to everyone else!

This widget does sound like an innovative solution to the problems of Flash.

The thing I totally want and have expressed is an ability to 100% escape Paypal and use Google Checkout or other Payment solutions that are viable for me but also my Art buyers.

I hope that within the summer even if new ecommerce solutions are way off that this viable Widget will allow me to get away from the horror of having your Paypal funds frozen seemingly at will.

It sounds like you are really working on improving you're service and it's a fantastic development

http://canteenoncliftonstreet.com was created to support my brother-in-law's dream of opening a restaurant. It's been open now for 18 months and is quietly becoming very successful. Part of the success is down to moonfruit software which has allowed us to create a site that supports Canteen's 'community' of customers. It makes full use of the membership tools, the easy graphical nature of Flash, and ultimately the great software that is Sitemaker. Why not visit us in Cardiff and try our menu, it changes every few weeks and is usually delicious! We even have a singing chef!

I think the tools that the Moonfruit team have created are outstanding, our site is mainly flash, but the tools Moonfruit have provided have made the ADG site one of the best Disclosure based websites on the interweb. Our site gets lots of visitors, and many folks have commented on how great our site looks, and first impressions are the most important.

Thanks to all the Moonfruit team, and a shiny new mac would be very welcome. Thanks guys. http://www.alien-disclosure-group.m...

Hi,

www.dlucca.co.uk

Here is my entry, this took me atleast 40 hours of work over a couple of months to design the inital layout and content and is ongoing work as it is a fully functional store.

It think the layout is very easy to use and navigate and gives a true reflection of the actual shop in Leigh on Sea Essex - I tried to give the site the feel of you were actually in the shop - the wallpaper borders match the shop interior and the design ties in with the store stationery etc...

I have set the shop owner up as admin giving her access to certain parts of the site so she can change and upload new stock etc as she wishes.

The site has over 40 pages within it, but still remains easy to use.

I hope you like it... any feedback appreciated.

Dan

When I was looking at different outlets to display my photography portfolio, I never thought I would come across such a power house site builder like moonfruit, I wanted something very simple, but it needed to look complex (flash elements etc) after a few weeks of twinkering and getting to know all the tools, this is the website I have made.

Some design elements I went in with, I wanted it to be quick, clean, and simple with just enough graphic elements to keep your attention so that it's not boring, I wanted my photo's to be the center of attention but still have the basic information (contact info etc) be easy to find and read. And most of all I wanted the site to be easy to navigate. The site was built entirely using moonfruit builder, from a blank canvas.

I thank you for your consideration, here is my submission.

HTML widget - what have you found? - EduKate

EduKate — Mon, 13 Jul 2009 17:17:50 +0100

On my www.testersite.moonfruit.com, I have put on a live streaming webcam.
To be able to do this is a big part of a lot of work I am going to be doing
in the near future with a range of clients. I was delighted to see that the
live feed embedded fine into the page and worked.... but...... when I navigate
away from the page I have embedded it on, it remains in sight on the new page.
I know this is a beta version, but is there anything I can do to prevent this?
Why would it embed and they remain in sight even on different pages? PLEASE can anyone help! If I can't get this to work, I am going to need to find another web building package as it is fundamental in the work I am about to start. Such a shame as I LOVE Moonfruit! Any help gratefully received.

Okay here's my submission http://dday2009.moonfruit.com/. Why I think is should win, hmm...well I think it's simple and a great design that fits the theme as well as uses the "Moonfruit Site Builder" effectively. Its not cluttered and confusing to navigate though and it gets straight to the point without over doing it. Other than that I think it is a great example of what you can do with the "Moonfruit Site Builder"

My reasons for the theme...Well this year I got to play in the worlds largest woodsball paintball scenario. It consisted of around 3000 to 4000 players. People from young and old come from all over the world like America, UK, Australia, Canada and more to play in this event. One thing I realized in this game was the comradery between the players and the passion they had for the game. What I won't forget is the respect for the Armed Forces that fight for us know and those who fought in World War II. This was really honored and highly respected there. I really felt like I was apart of something epic, like I was in DDay for real, well as real as I could get anyway :) Anyway I did this site project
to share my experiences and to hopefully get others to join in on the game and experience it as well. I also would love to win, win or lose it was fun project.

Hi Ryutso,

Sorry you weren't happy with some of our winners. We judged them on merit/humour as they came in. Tear96 was one of the very first entries before we started receiving hundreds each day. We wanted to give prizes to different types of entries that we thought were the best of each type. As you can imagine it's often very hard to compare entries which can be so different. You might look back and say X was better than Y, but we did these each day and we took them as they came.

Many thanks for taking part,

Joe

Emily Fischer — Mon, 13 Jul 2009 02:35:37 +0100

I think I'm deserving of the Macbook Pro, because my site is simple and unique. I have been designing websites for four years, since I was ten. I know when to make a site more full... and when a site needs to be simplified. I have been designing graphics since a young age, aswell and carry the laptop I have currently (iBook G3) around with me everywhere. Thanks! Good luck, everyone!

I think i should win because i have only signed up to the free package, but the way iv built the site it looks like iv paid for it. iv also used my photoshop and final cut pro 6 skills to make my site look more appealing to they eye. winning this macbook would allow me to learn more about film music and media design.

Kris — Sun, 12 Jul 2009 17:18:15 +0100

I'm thinking that you guys have probably decided your winner already, because there are some amazing responses above mine. But here it is, anyway:

http://www.theconcept.moonfruit.com

Ok, why is my site special? Ermmm....well, I think it maybe a Moonfruit first. An interactive, portfolio, soap opera, comic, cartoon based website, with a twist!

At least I think it is?

It knows more than me me to be honest. I'm just it's little slave, creating more rooms, and adding to it's power. It knows what it is, but it's not telling me.

I'm just the janitor.

One day, I think it'll try and eat me. Like Audrey 2 from the little shop of horrors.
Because it is a bit of a first, and it it quite unique, It's really hard for me to explain it. Only a click of the link will suffice. If you figure out what it is, then please get back to me with an answer. I'd really like to know.

It is something i'll add to whilst I continue to be a Moonfruit member. I've been an advocate of you guys since 2001, so i think this relationship will continue for some time...

...the more work I create, the more i'll add. What you can see there is the very start of what the towers will become. I've only added a small amount of my stupid stuff so far.

But the exciting thing is...with your membership tools, I can create rooms for other moonfruit users. Bands. Artists. Whatever. I can create them a cartoon room, with props, and they can live there like me, in cyberspace. Have their own cartoon site within a site.
But then, I can incorporate those people into the soap opera. Into the comic. Even into songs.

The whole thing is set up for interactivity. The whole thing is set up for other people to get involved, so it'll become less about me, myself and I. I've also set up a cartoon based click and point chat applet in flash. Does it work in Moonfruit? You betcha!

Then, there are placeholders for adverts dotted around the walls.

I hope you can see where this is going...

So, a shiny new mac book pro, would mean I could push the concept further. Mac's like ideas, and I have lots of ideas! Too many, probably...

Anyhow, I have to get back to work. I hear the empty corridors calling my name...

This is my web site; www.restoranrehberiniz.com

Hi I built above site as restaurant guide in Turkish language. My site win becuse, it shows that Moonfruit is international company that not only english language site built. And this site is now competing with most powerful turkish internet companies who built same restaurantguide with 300.000 $ budget. But I am having comment from users and media that my site is more user friendly. So we understand that we can built web site at industry standart and we can compete powerful internet company without paying 300.000$.

Thanks

Hello, and thank you for the amazing promotion you've been running! I'm thrilled that there is still one more chance at winning a MacBook Pro! My name is Joseph and I'm 27 years old, from San Francisco. I am starting my own training business for photographers looking to incorporate video and film production into their offerings. It's my first business and I'm very short on capital. I am trying hard to save for a macbook pro so that I can start training photographers outside of my tiny downtown studio apartment (not very professional when my bed is in the same room!). I absolutely love using Moonfruit, it's a real joy and makes my broke self look like I paid a fortune for my website. Thank you for making sitemaker such a great product, here is my favorite of the 5 sites I have built with it: http://www.cinestudio.info

Thanks again,

Joe

I have worked with moonfruit sites for many years, when we lost our special brother in law "James" I knew i could keep his memories live with moonfruit.
The slide show displays his pictures, the music player blast out his favorite track.
my family and friends visit moonfruit to say prays and leave a bithday messages, when christmas comes round i know a place they will not forget " james.moonfruit"
winning is not a priority for me, but if i did it would be like a gift from james@moonfruit and i would use to help others to keep there memories aline on here just like jollygiant.moonfruit.com. read the SMR story and what i say at the bottom of the page.
this story made the newspapers.
keeping loved one memories online helps families come to terms with ther sad loss and this can be easily acheived with the API that you get from moonfruit,no other sitemaker can do that?
Thanks for reading.
God Bless!

Thanks for reading

Final creative prize for a Macbook Pro - iMom

iMom — Sun, 12 Jul 2009 03:19:53 +0100

My Moonfruit website should be chosen because it shows how computers can spark a three year-old child with a speech delay to not only speak, but to communicate through written words.

Two years ago, my son made no sound at all...not even a squeal. Now he is speaking AND spells out words on the computer!

I've briefly documented our struggles with speech and developmental delays, on our Moonfruit website. I've included a short video of my son writing "e-mails" to me on our PC that has no internet connection.

This fall my son is enrolled in a gifted and talented program, and the children must have their own laptops. I would love to give him my old MacBook, but I would need to replace it with another, which as a single parent, I just cannot afford right now.

My Moonfruit website may not be the snazziest (I only have so much time in a day...so it was quickly thrown together), but I found the site building tools so easy to work with! It was enjoyable, and oh so simple, to build a website on Moonfruit!

I would love to win a new MacBook Pro - be able to give my laptop to my son, to continue encouraging his love of language, and have an outlet for sharing our experiences with other parent of special needs children, using a Moonfruit website.

Thank you for the outlet, and an opportunity to win a new MacBook Pro. Moonfruit rocks! :-)

Hello, Moonfruit. I think I should win this contest because I am a webdesigner and YouTuber with heart and passion. I spend a lot of time on the computer and am very greatful for all of the things I have. I'm also very creative, and like simple sites.... as well as very loud sites. I know how to make a busy site look empty, and how to make an empty site look full, as I have been designing websites for four years now, and I'm only 14. I will tell my friends about this website, because it's very good for people who don't know their HTML. Thank you, Moonfruit.

Here is my website:

Hey Moonpeeps!

Check out my site entry:
http://iwant.moonfruit.com/

So why should I win?
Well I spend a fair while making my website different from everyone elses, using Moonfruit's super easy to use site builder I was able to really customise it to make it look different. I am passionate about Moonfruit and Macs, so hey, thats the sort of website I built (mainly about Moonfruit, with some references to Apple, but meh, Moonfruit is awesome =D). I had a great time creating it!

Na_Paiva — Sat, 11 Jul 2009 06:24:12 +0100

I won't say the reason why I should win. I'm sure people deserve this prize more than me, and people really are more creative than me either.
So I thought to myself: I'm on holydays, and I have nothing to do, and it's late at night and I don't want to go to bed, and despite I don't have MY computer I want to go into this content anyway. I like challenges.
And I was thinking about what I could do so I thought of people who did their jobs and it wasn't showed. Mine was one of them, I guess. It doesn't matter, anyway.
So I created a website where I put as many jobs as I could put while I was still learning how to manage it, and put your channels for people to see those that aren't on my website.
Well, it's 02:15 a.m and I'm going to have some reading. I wish you enjoyed my job, it was really hard for me to do this.
So good night, and good luck for the other people into it.

Congrats Moonfruit. You've given away 20 prizes and have alienated all but 20 of your customers. Yet this advertising was a success.

Hope you don't lose any subscribers who put their hard work into making creative and often humorous creative responses. Sadly, you went out and chose stupid crap like tear96's video, which was, literally, a piece of crap. I'm sorry, but if all it took was just ONE mention of moonfruit to be considered "creative", then by all means many of the creative songs or pictures, based solely around moonfruit should've won.

If all it took was a random video of some kid talking about his new shorts, I could've gotten my kid brother to win me an iPod Touch. But no. You chose what you thought was "creative". I'm fairly sure, if you took all the creative entries from the contest and put them to a vote, you would come out with remarkably different results.

Hope your "creative" side shows through on each and every one of your precious little websites. I for one, will not follow you on Twitter again.

Final creative prize for a Macbook Pro - Connie

Connie — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 20:13:39 +0100

The reason I should win this macbook pro is because I want to continue making my photo gallery bigger. I love how moonfruit allows me to make a site that is so organized and aesthetically appealing. I love simplicity, and that is exactly what moonfruit offers me. I received the laptop I am currently using through school, and every summer I must return it so that they can re-boot and add new programs. However, do to their constant addition of programs on my computer, it has become extremely slow and I am always getting the spinning beachball of death. (Cue to laugh). Besides having a slow laptop, I won't be having a laptop at all very soon for the rest of my summer. My family does not have another computer, so this one laptop is for the whole family to use. Sad, I know. So if I win the macbook pro, it will not only benefit me, but my family as well.
Thank you !

My creative website response is: http://sloorp.moonfruit.com

Reasons it should win:
1) It requires what you mentioned. I made a website for digital artwork, for art, which i am passionate about. And the appearence fits perfectly with its objective.
2) I made icons for every title: A newspaper for "news", a joystick for "games" etc...
3) It has bright colors and it's really inspiring because of the theme! Check out my artwork lol
4) It contains all the pages a designer needs, even a Flash Portfolio!
5) There are animated graphics making the page beautiful and fun to browse. It's inviting and happy.
6) There are many fun stuff to do, play games, watch animations...
7) It presents your web tools and what someone can do with moonfruit nicely!
8) The website has a favicon too! :)

Good Luck Everyone! ;)

Final creative prize for a Macbook Pro - Natalie

Natalie — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 14:41:05 +0100

I finished my site in time for entry, so here goes. My names Natalie, but on my site I'm known as 'kato35'. I'm 17 years old and come from Australia. My moonfruit site is Kato Designs ---> http://www.katothetiger.com which Ive had for just over a year and a half now. I put a lot of effort into it, but so far it doesnt have Paypal so I can only sell my products to friends (so far, so good) or via Ebay, which I havent done yet.

Id love to win a Macbook Pro. I think we all would. But I'm not going to rant on about why I'd use it, I just want to enter my site (hope it has a chance), and get some feedback :P

My site is called Kato Designs, but its based on two separate stationery ranges: the kato the tiger range, which is based on 10 of my cartoon characters, and the Kreative Kard range, which is a range of my unique handmade card designs. I decided that 20% of the sales will go to WWF (World Wide Fund for Nature) because they help save endangered species, which is what the Kato the Tiger range is based on.

I would love to get some feedback on my site: improvement or any general comments... my email is kato35@katothetiger.com.

Thanks for reading, and thanks Moonfruit!

It uses, graphics, text and video in an interesting and innovative way. I also think it should win becuase I love moonfruit and would love a macbook pro to make more moonfruit websites on!!

Hello Moon Fruit :)

This site i made showed my capabilities of graphic design and how much a macbook would help me achieve greater possibilites with my career as a graphic design artist. As you might read in my bio that I'm majoring in 3 things. Graphic design, Dance and Communications. This macbook would help me alot in school. I think i deseve the Macbook because I worked really hard in high school but couldn't go to a UC and ended up going to Cal State and now i'm going to City due to I can't afford my classes. I had to sell my last laptop to get money for college. My parents wouldn't have to worry about getting me a good computer for my school or my graphic
design career. They both work 3 jobs and are barely staying afloat.
My boyfriend is trying to help me pay for my classes this upcoming term $400 and I'm still looking for a job which i got laid off earlier this year. I volunteer my time at shelters, orphanges and kitchen soups. I also donate most of my clothes to those less fourtante to me. I would really love this laptop it would totally take off the financial burden and pressure off me and my family. you have no idea how much this would take off the stress of me and my family. when i saw this contest i was like i knew how much i could do with the concept. I also created the macbook pro vector by myself if you're wondering.I could do so much more and reach my potential if i could have a mac. I have to resort using an old computer thats borrowed from my boyfriends. I have to give it back once school starts other than that I have nothing when school starts in the fall. please pick me you have no idea how much i would be so grateful. thank you for making these kind of contests for people ; gives a chance to everyone :) thank you moon fruit and thanks for taking the time to listen. :)

Dear Moonfruit,
Why should you pick my site? Because I made Moonfruit my own. And that is the whole point is it not? To push the limits of your creative boundaries, to be fresh and exciting? I thought your template designs were good, but then I realized I could make them better.
Graphic design is my one-and-only passion. For the past two years it has totally killed me not being able to study it further. I am just a meager college student trying to make it from one semester to the next. Even with help from family, I constantly find myself scraping the bottom of the barrel and getting the money to buy my own macbook seems like a hopeless fantasy at this point. Despite my desperate need for this bare-bones chunk of plastic some might confuse for a laptop, against my better judgment, I overheated it to the point that it could have burst into flames, just so I could make my site layout. For a macbook, I would do just about anything. They were BUILT for the visual arts, and I pine to be a part of that world like you cannot imagine.

Hey Moonfruit,

Can't tell you how much I'm digging your website! After finding out about Moonfruit from lifehacker.com, I created the site Eggs ( www.eggs.moonfruit.com ) to share some insight on various topics that might come across everyday. I think many people would enjoy Eggs because it's not just a site of blogs, but rather 'rants' ranging from how society views racial tension to how a teenage boy can get with the ladies. My friend and I try to add some humor to these rants, and occasionally "cross the line." In our opinion, it showcases today's generation and also makes the experience an enjoyable one.

Apart from our rants, what I value is the simplicity yet creativity that flourishes from the design of Eggs. It's fun and easy to maneuver around. There are sections such as "Giggidy" and "The Good Stuff" for added entertainment, but not too many jumble-mumbled area that might confuse users.

The one idea I hope to incorporate with Eggs is that I, along with writers for Eggs, stay true to what we want to express. Eggs, like anything else, is not for everyone. However, we hope everyone can share their views with us.

Thanks so much for hearing me out. I hope you enjoy my site!

PS: Why the name Eggs? Check it out and you'll find out why!

I have to admit, I had no idea moonfruit existed until I saw the contest on twitter, now i can't stop raving about it. I didn't know building a site could be so easy! I always thought you needed to know how to write code and things like that but with moonfruit it couldn't be simpler. I decided to create a site about my dog Sally, I want to be able to share things I have learned from her and also that other will be able to share things about their pets with me. It's a great way to share ideas and things I have learned with other pet lovers. Anyways, please pick my site, I really could use the computer because the one I have is slower than a turtle, hopefully my site can grow and I'll be able to monitor it from the comfort of my new macbook, thanks moonfruit!!

My website it basically a place where I can put my "Graphic Humiliations". One of my favorite pastimes is browsing my friends on facebook and finding an odd picture that would work perfect for some photoshopping. I also find myself inspired by conversations or events at the office. Once the image is "adjusted" I post them online for all too see.
In the end...it WAY to much fun.

Hi there Moonfruit! I don't know if you read, but I use Moonfruit every day. I build websites for clients using Moonfruit because it is so easy they can use it too!
Anyways, the one website I made in Moonfruit and am Site Admin of is http://randumbprod.com (http://randumbprod.moonfruit.com)

My site is new and innovative. The design and entire site is made using the free version of Moonfruit and has thousands of hits. It is unique that it can hold user comments, lead to our other web apps, provide a fluid creative experience for the others who help on the site and every user.

Our site is unique and is designed for success. I believe that I deserve to win the prize because not only this amazing site, but the dedication and love I put into Moonfruit everyday! It may be embarrassing, but I have a Moonfruit custom background!

Moonfruit is not only a catchy name that could win me prizes by tweeting it... Moonfruit is the easiest, no HTML needed, most customizable way to build a website.

I use it every day, and I will for months and years to come.

Just dive right in and take a bite of Moonfruit, you never know what you might come up with. Moonfruit is what you want, it could be a banana, an apple, and orange. Moonfruit is not one object, it is anything your imagination wants it to be!

I love you guys! Keep doing what you do!

Because I'm outraged that I've been denied #moonfruit and a MacBookPro.

Nah, I kid.

What started out as a mere curiousity to this competition, turned out to be an investment of some sort; joining this competition led me to explore the Moonfruit website, where it is so easy to create a beautiful website all on your own, at no costs, at all. I have always kept away from creating or designing my very own website because they looked intimidating and it never occured to me that it would be all at our fingertips, and so user-friendly.

I joined the competition with the intention to get a shot at winning the MacBookPro or at the very least an iPod touch (I very much doubt so though, because I am a blatant green horn, there are such better professionals out there who would beat me hands down, but no harm trying, I reckon) but came away with a website to deposit my hobbies together; writing and photography.

Now, I don't claim to be good, but I will say that I do try.

In any case, I thank Moonfruit for this experience. You guys are awesome !

p/s; Stop being racists now, and award the first Asian to win any of your prizes ! You know I'm still here waiting ;)

When your contest hit the Twitter trends I was reminded of your facility which I had enjoyed back in the heady days of online site-builders and had loved and revisited my roots.

The weird thing was that that VERY day I sort of hit a realisation- that an era of intense motherhood had ended and that I could rediscover my own creativity at long last.

My website, Five Part Harmony @ Moonfruit, is going to be my vessel for attempting to capture the essence of what is in my head and pull it all together to make sense of it:

For I am a textile designer (http://www.annasach.com), an environmentalist and teacher who has spent the last four years ensuring that my child makes good her promise in academia and who has just been given back "time" with @BrigidMhairi 's leaving of school and most importantly I am a frustrated writer.

For I have about four books which I would love to write but for some reason, I just don't have the knack for it.

For I realised that film-making, on the other hand, IS a feasible form of expression for me, and I had already decided to return to college to add another string to my bow and study AV Tech this Autumn.

But until Moonfruit came back into my line of sight I had not thought to create a site to chronicle this- so here it is- my pretty baby:

http://www.fivepartharmony.moonfrui...

Five Part Harmony refers to a line in the Arlo Guthrie song Alice's Restaurant and acknowledges the driving energy behind my need to make films- Music. Namely the early years of @BrigidMhairi 's musical journey. It will be where I tie together my different media, where I will chart my progress and eventually where I will "show" from. I have left it as a Moonfruit templated site for now because I quite like the honesty of the look and enjoy playing about with the site-builder.

Thank you Moonfruit for helping me along this next stage in my journey.

With kindest regards,

@ChapelRecords

I believe I should win because my site is centered around my personal opinion, not a site based upon who can make the best "suck up to Moonfruit" site (no offense everyone else, you did a really nice job!!!). When I say "personal opinion", I mean it. I chose the name Rantage! because I wanted a little more than a blog on which I could express my personal opinions for things I came across on the Internet. I created the site based on something I like to do, which is write, and express an opinion. Other than a blog/rant site, it is also my personal website, which I will add my tastes such as music and other things, including a place to promote my favorite band, which I am on it's street team. I want a place where one can find my personal thoughts, as well as my personal "myspace'! My plans for my site are something that I can use each and every day, instead of a display site. I feel as if I have as good a chance as everyone else here, but I think I have a better reason to win than some.

Also, just want to say that Moonfruit is the best free website maker I have come across (after trying Webs.com and Yola, as well as various others.) so thank you for allowing me to do something I love.

Please visit my site, it's http://www.rantage.moonfruit.com , and tell me what you think.

Thanks,
Alica-Kate <3

Moonfruit,

I'm asking that you please consider my website, http://lpderollerhockey.moonfruit.c... for consideration in the final MPB giveaway.

This web site is to serve a youth roller hockey league based in West Central Ohio. We have been in dire need of a new web site for some time now, and this
contest seemed to be a calling.

Our roller hockey league is one of the biggest in Ohio and offers a 7 week season, plus a week of tournament games to nearly 300 kids in five divisions
ranging from ages 3-18. We aim to reach the area youth at risk to provide them something better to do in the summer when away from school other than being
involved with trouble.

While most hockey leagues in the area charge nearly 100 dollars or more per season, our registration cost has always been 15 dollars to cover the general
maintenance of the league throughout the season. We are able to do this through the help of several volunteers every week. From the coaches, the referees,
those running the score board, and those in the concession stands, and even myself, the web master, all 100% volunteers.

We are currently in the middle of our 12th season and are looking forward to providing the area with several more seasons of fun. In a given day, we see well
over 700 people come to our outdoor facility to watch their kids, nephews, nieces, grandparents, and more play hockey.

We would like to do a lot more with our web site than you currently see however. Instead of just scores and stats, we would like to provide a little more
interaction with our visitors. We are currently looking at providing live video steam of our rinks during game days. In addition, we would like to be able to
do live scoring, stats, and weather reports with our web site. Along with a weekly vlog of the current scores, and standings during a game day.

However, due to the lack of funds that are able to be spent on technology with the league, and my personal funds that I use to run our current web site, a lot
of this isn't possible. If you choose me to be your last Mac Book Pro winner, we would then have a portable computer for our league to use so we could do
this kind-of stuff. We would then have something wireless, and mobile to use while at our hockey rink to provide the live streaming, scoring, and more.

So moonfruit, I ask you to consider this web site, and me as a mac book pro winner, because the result will make thousands of people of West Central Ohio
happier.

Thanks!

Hi MF/People,

Ive been using MF for just about 4 years now. I started when I was 14 and since then I've learnt a lot about how to make functional and easy to navigate websites thanks to the ease of use of MF.

I just started as a hobby when I made a website for an organisation that I am part of. But then when I started my GCSE's/A-levels I had to start up my own business for my Business Studies Coursework. So I started a website design website. Since then, I have been experimenting with different layouts, styles, colour schemes etc. very easily.

When I applied for Uni, I had to show experience in business and there was no better way than to show the site that I designed. Needless to say, the admission tutors were very impressed and I got offers from all 5 Unis that I applied to.

I am going to enter the web design website that I made for my GCSE/A-Level Coursework into the competition.

I have worked very hard on the design, layout and content of the site. I hope you see it as I do. I have tried to make it look as professional as I can.

I think my site should win because of the good design and easy to navigate layout as well as flowing content and good use of images.

Hope you all like the site!

Take Care,
BeNzsilVy

And thanks for creating such an innovative promotion drive, otherwise I'd never learned how to use twitter so well, or have access to moonfruit which is like... really simple to use..

A Father'sMemorial Website — Wed, 08 Jul 2009 23:41:25 +0100

The front page of this site says it all from me. The design, build and pulling together of the material about my father who had passed away ...proved for me a very powerful way to grieve and Share with friends and family. The guestbook says it all... I ended up using many of Moonfruits great features, video, photos, mp3 and so on.

As traditional as going to a cemetery might be... my idea was to create a place that any friend or family member could visit anytime to remember my father... who to this day teaches me to share.

That is what I did here.

Thank You Moonfruit for the outlet.

I created http://mpyoung.moonfruit.com for a friend who heading out into the real world from college soon. He is a media production major and wanted a website that presented his skills, resume, work, and, most importantly, his creative personality to potential clientele and employers. He desired to stand out from the conventional websites that most individuals in his line of work develop with one that was more fresh and humorous.

This was my first attempt at building a website (and using Moonfruit) and I would have to say that the usage was phenomenal. I was able to build a completely personalized design from scratch with the simple tools that Moonfruit provides. The website still has some areas to work out (additional files to upload, etc.), but for the most part it currently shows the unique look I was going for. He can easily upload and change the content of the site himself when he wants, now that my design portion is complete.

Oh well... It seems that Robert from Chill Media Group had a similar idea as me for a website when I was browsing through the entries now, but I guess great minds think alike! Our entries are unique enough though to dissociate them for their different purposes.

Hi guys!
It's the first time I ever heard about Moonfruit actually. Good thing I have a Twitter and I kept on wondering for the past days wth #moonfruit was.
Forgive me as I have said I am such a loser and have always dreamt of acquiring a MBP.

I tried the free builder and I am amazed cos it was easy to explore and my being a techie wannabe doesnt have to be so genius at all cos they guide you with the step by step,
I also love the fact that I got the really cool URL

www.pleasegiveme.moonfruit.com

I really hope this qualifies me for that #moonfruit. I promise to spread the word and tell friends about Moonfruit's website builder.
Thanks! More Power!

P.S.
I am from a Third World country Philippines, just FYI, cos I feel I dont stand a chance at this.Sorry.

Top Videos is a website that takes the hassle out of viewing entertaining internet videos. Countless hours have been spent searching for these videos so our viewers wouldn't have to. The videos are categorized based on genres, and some are also reviewed.

Thanks for yet another great contest!

Final creative prize for a Macbook Pro - TannerMacLeod

TannerMacLeod — Wed, 08 Jul 2009 18:33:53 +0100

Hello everyone at Moonfruit!

I'd like to enter my site: http://tannermacleod.t83.net/

I only started making this site yesterday, and I must say that I'm quite impressed with your Site Maker. I originally had a site on Wordpress, but I'm pretty sure that I'll be switching over to stay at Moonfruit for good.

I've seen a lot of sites about Moonfruit being made for the competition, but I decided to take a different route. In your post, you told us to make a site about something that we're passionate about. Well I am passionate about making films and videos, so that's what I chose. My passion in film is also what's driving me to enter the competition. Having a Mac is almost essential for professional video production, and I'm hoping that this contest will get me one step closer to being a professional.

Why do I think my site should win?
I feel that my site demonstrates how easy and customizable Site Maker is. After only a short while of toying around with the program, I felt like I had it down. It only took me a couple of hours to construct what I think is a very professional looking website. This would be good to advertise to small companies, or people like myself that want a good looking portfolio. All of the images (save for the arrows) on the site were custom made by myself, and very easily integrated into the pages for a smooth look.

Another reason would be to show how customizable the site is. I started out with the DJ template, but completely turned it around and made it my own. A lot of free-hosting sites offer templates for you to use, but you're locked into the design and don't have enough options to customize the site, so all of the web pages end up looking like cookie-cutter designs. This is most definitely not the case with Moonfruit.

I feel like my website takes advantage of a lot of key features that Moonfruit offers. I have comments avaliable on the front page, I'm using a blog to keep track of my productions, I'm using the embedded videos a LOT, and I have a contact form just in case anyone has any questions about my videos or my site. Also, I took advantage of being able to have a custom icon for your site, which I rarely (if ever) see offered on other free hosting services.

Another unique point about my site can be found under the 'My Videos' section. If you scroll down, there's a button that offers a game based off of a film that I made. It's a point-and-click Choose your own Adventure game, made entirely within Moonfruit's Site Maker. I originally planned for it to be longer, but because of time restraints and a page limit, I was only able to make a smaller version. However this does show just another cool thing that can be done with the Site Maker software.

I really hope you all enjoyed viewing my site as much as I did making it. Please, when you're judging it, try and take a look at all of the pages. I put a lot of my time and passion into each one. Thank you, Moonfruit, for offering such a fun competition, and I hope that you have a good time looking at all of the wonderful sites being made by your software!

-Tanner

My website that I created is: http://mpyoung.moonfruit.com I created it for a friend who will soon be out of college and looking for a job in the area of media production. With my first attempts at making a website (and ever using Moonfruit), I believe that the results came out fantastic (view it with Flash Player btw!!).

I wanted to design a unique layout that fit his witty and creative personality to make him stand out from the crowd of typical boring corporate websites that individuals have. It is still in the process of being re-worked, re-worded, having files uploaded to it, etc., but the initial results demonstrate the feel that I was trying to achieve for his page. I wanted the site to display his work and his personality to friends, family, and potential future clients that would visit the site!

I express through my design. A qualified matter of existence, a way I can express my feelings. Moonfruit Enables IT.

Created with the vibe of freshness, inspired by the delicate colours of nature , a dedication to our beautiful environment ... our inspiration for design.

This particular website (which will soon be our main site) sprung into my mind while I was taking my dog for his daily stroll. I looked up into the sky and I saw this amazing glow of southern light sprayed across the sky, it there and then I knew - that my next website will be inspired by nature.
With the powerful tools of SM I was able and capable to create this piece which I call - "Freshness". Innovative from the ground up, using significant curvature and stark darkness to create a figurative and expressive tribute to true web design.
In addition, using the bold fonts and stylised tones, it creates this calming atmosphere.

With all the being said - that, is why I believe this website should be chosen.

Thank You MF,

Matt

Wow. This contest has really meant a lot to me. While I haven't necessarily used Twitter as much as I have wanted to, I am thankful I have been able to have been a part of this contest. I have gotten connected with people that have also partook in this event; I thank you very much for that.

Now down to business. I think that my website should win because it is simple the most dedicated, brilliant creative entry.

I have created a website in honor of everyone's favorite fictional fruit, the Moonfruit; I have created a historical storyline and gallery for images of the fruit. I have told how the fruit was found, where, and everything about the fruit. If that weren't using my imagination enough, I have created an aesthetic website design that complements everything that Moonfruit is about.

I know that my website is everything and more that this competition represents. I thank you for allowing me to submit this, and I hope that you enjoy the site.

Sincerely,

Ethan Skaggs

I am passionate for photography and this website is special because it allows me to showcase my work for a worldwide audience. The reason why I think it should win is because it is built around simplicity, bringing people's attention to the content and not to the surroundings. They say a picture is worth a thousand words and that is why there are no paragraphs on the homepage. The visitor is welcomed by a small photo gallery that will be updated frequently to showcase my latest work. Included are also links to my photos on Flickr, my Twitter account and my Resume to allow visitors get to know me better and perhaps find freelance projects to work on.

So, this is a site I created for my music solo project "That Guy With The Headphones..." I created in just a few hours. I was really surprised at the easy compatibility and how fast it went. I'm not trying to force people to spend money. My dream is just to get my music out there and hopefully it inspires them to keep up with their music or support me with my own. Hopefully, when I get the money I can purchase a more qualified website from you than the sample one... but this has helped me on my way.

Thanks so much, MoonFruit!

http://www.phili.co.uk

I've been with Moonfruit since the year 2000, and since then, I've given my homepage a lot of different looks. Originally, I created a Louise Redknapp fansite which I still love to design and update, but lately, my efforts have been more focussed on my personal site. I've seen Moonfruit develop so much over the years and I've always used my website to test new widgets. I currently enjoy making videos and planting them on to my site. My homepage was made for all my family and friends, and anyone who was interested in my travels, which later became a blog of my life. It holds all my Travel journals and photos including pages dedicated to my baby nephew and major events. I like to be creative and make use of all the widgets/graphics available on Moonfruit. The end result is something that I'm really proud of, and which I get praised for.

I have two great sites, but for me, Phili.co.uk means alot more. Take a look, I hope you like it.

This is my site. i decided to make it because Ive been wanting to create an inspirational site where i could officially post my art and graphic work.. Not just to show off my work, but to share my tips and knowledge with people who read my site. I wanted to post tutorials using Photoshop etc so people could try it themselves and therefore inspire people to take up art or any other creative hobby, whether its drawing, painting. music. film making. I just want to inspire people to get creative and create something they can be proud of and then hopefully they can get some self satisfaction from it as i believe being creative can really make people feel good inside as they can express their feelings and emotions through their artwork. In addition i also wanted a place where i could post quick blogs about things I'm passionate about or things that are on my mind [aka have a good bitch haha] and hopefully get the reactions and opinions of the visitors who read them.

Final creative prize for a Macbook Pro - Dave

Dave — Tue, 07 Jul 2009 22:50:27 +0100

I think my website should be picked as it is a rather unique idea that I have developed and am still developing. It comes from an interest I am very passionate about which is Christmas Lights and the Christmas displays which is unusual for an 18 year old male. I always loved the lights as a child and have been working on my display for over 5 years (yes, since I was 13.) Last year I won the best lit house in Birmingham in the Birmingam Mail newspaper and collected over £200 for charity. This has led me to develop my website. The website theme is out of season at the moment but I hope that doesn't affect my chances. My website 'Lights4Charity' centers around people in the UK who decorate their houses for Christmas, no only or themselves but to raise money for worthwhile charities. Please take the time to read around the website to learn more about it and what I intend to do with it. Please remember that this is a project that I started this year and that has only just gone live or this competition and wasn't intended for launch until aroun October this year, so please don't be put off by the lack of members at the moment. This site has never been release or seen before in its current form. The fact that it hasn't yet been officially launched means it has recieved no advertising of any kind up until now but the inital response from people with display who have only heard about the idea has been very good.

The webiste can be found at: http://www.lights4charity.net

I hope you will consider me a decent entry to the competition.

Final creative prize for a Macbook Pro - Japheth Crawford

Japheth Crawford — Tue, 07 Jul 2009 22:43:02 +0100

My name is Japheth. I recently purchased a 2 year hosting/domain subscription through another host, but this is by far the easiest website I have ever made. I do small web design things for my church and to promote myself to gain clients for graphic design, and I was very impressed with my end result of what took 2 or 3 hours with Moonfruit. When my 2 years are up with my current host, I will most likely switch over to moonfruit just from my experience today. The reason I came to Moonfruit in the first place was this whole Macbook Pro giveaway. I have always loved apple's computers and have never been able to save enough up to buy one. I work with some at school (Senior in High School this year) and I love designing on them.
In the next year, to continue my education in college for graphic design or graphic communications, the majority of design programs either require or strongly recommend macs. I also need to purchase the Adobe Creative Suite to further my knowledge but can't right now until I get a mac because the software is operating system specific. My current PC that I work on now, has a record of crashing every 2-3 months and I can never rely on it working. I was originally going to have enough saved up by the end of this summer to get the macbook that I wanted but then problems arose. My car that I thought was pretty reliable has been breaking down left and right and I need it to get to work and school. So now I am forced to put my mac purchase on the back burner until I can afford a more reliable car. It seems as though I have been saving for this single computer for the past two years and now do not have the money again to get it.

HELP MOONFRUIT!

here's the moonfruit website I EASILY came up with thanks to the amazingness of the Site builder. I was thoroughly impressed.

I took a passion that I had and was able to express it to the world through the possibilities of Moonfruit to create the number one site of it's kind that has been visited by millions of people and has thousands of members. I took my passion and using Moonfruit was able to share something with the world that I am very proud of. Cheers guys.

Hello all at Moonfruit and everyone that has taken part,

I'd just personally like to use this moment to thank you for the exhilarating ride you have given me over the past 7 days. I tweeted my heart out, even having moments laying in bed - trying to come up with witty tweets that featured the moonfruit hash tag. I congratulated each winner, each and every day and also received some very kind words from one of the winners of the creative prize; I was even given full support by this person of whom I thank very much, also for this support.

To me, the way you have run this competition, I believe - was excellent to say the very least. It was the first of its kind; you even made Twitter history with the trending topic - being randomly removed. There have been so many fun moments, inventing new ideas related to the pointing machine, of which I had amazing visions of in my head and to me, that is what has made this competition very special. I'm not the best artist this world has ever seen, but to me that isn't what counts, I wanted to be a part of what you guys had created. I've participated and I've enjoyed every moment, and continue to do so eagerly awaiting for the next creative prize winner to be announced! (Best wishes to absolutely everyone, who has taken time out to 'have a go').

I can't thank you enough, I've shared my thoughts of you guys with my family and friends and they know what this has meant to me also, to be featured in one of your tweets and such likes.

Now I'd just like to take one moment, to show you (and everyone else!) my entries that I created, to be just a small part of the Moonfruit history.

Hi,
i really need a new computer, my old pc is horrible. Really slow and crashes alot. It is about 8 years old and is windows 2000 or something. I'm a PC but i want to transfer to a mac. I'm only 12 years old and cant afford a mac myself. I want to start making videos on YouTube and teaching other people. I love the design of the Mac and use my old computer everyday for homework even though it really slow and takes me forever to connect to the internet. I share it with my whole family so i cant download anything. I made a site a while ago, and i really enjoy it, hope you do to :D

Here's my site - http://jadehearttravels.moonfruit.c...

I was looking for an easy digital way to show off my photos from a recent trip to Africa. I learned basic HTML a long time ago but found it difficult with all the new programming to create a good looking, easy website. Using Moonfruit was the easiest way to create this online scrapbook/album so I can share my photos and still be green!

I love that it's so easy to use and am still working out a few kinks and trying the different options that there are. I think my site shows how easy it is to create a simple, but professional looking site for personal usage!

Final creative prize for a Macbook Pro - Abby Adesanya

Abby Adesanya — Tue, 07 Jul 2009 20:16:01 +0100

Hi, everyone at Moonfruit! My name is Abby Adesanya and I have been addicted to three things since I was a child: fashion, technology, and literature. I am currently 17 years old and I can accurately say that I've been working on the computer since I was about five years old. I made fun little websites by 9, (keyword 'fun', not pretty!) and wrote short stories in a notebook I always carried around at 10, even though my handwriting was apparently only legible to myself. Discovering Moonfruit now shows me just how much technology has evolved. Moonfruit definitely supplied an easier way to create beautiful websites without having to be a pro at it. I created my moonfruit site, http://fashionintegrated.moonfruit.... as a way to display my stories and my love for fashion, hence the title--FashionIntegrated. To this day I still have many things I have written that are still unfinished, and my hard drive is truly paying for it. I'm running out of space on this four year old, haggard laptop of mine and I think I'm ready to make the jump from the obsolete Windows to the classy Macintosh. I'm going off to college soon, and I've been looking for something to keep my interest in fashion journalism piqued, and I think it's clear to me that my Moonfruit site is the best way to go! I'm pretty fond of it, and I want to continue updating it throughout the seasons, even after this MBP competition. I don't want a whole day's hard work to go to waste! Hopefully the staff, and everyone else who sees it finds it just as interesting and fun as I think it is. Thanks for letting me join in the runnings! :)

**I tried posting this once but it doesn't seem to have went through. My apologies if it is double posted**

My website: http://robertxy.moonfruit.com/

I think that you should pick my website because it embodies what ANYONE can do with Moonfruit. It's basically a homepage for all my multimedia outlets (video, photography, blogging etc.). The moonfruit site builder made it so easy to put together a great website and I think that, though my site isn't exactly the fanciest, it really shows how far you can go when you use a great site-builder like Moonfruit.

The site is an entertainment website that includes my YouTube videos (some vlogs, some webseries, some scripted), my photography, and a bit about me. It's a personal site, but I think it's worthy of winning for best website. I think my use and placement of graphics is fun and eye-catching. I think you'll enjoy it. I will be adding more of my photography soon as well, so look forward to that.

Thanks, and I hope you pick my site!

Hi there,

My entry is http://www.gakash.moonfruit.com/

By now you must have seen a lot of videos and a lot of images. But till now no one has designed a 3d application for Moonfruit. I have incorporated a 3d application in the site which will help you view what people have been thinking for the past few days. Also included are a few images I have created for moonfruit and a video demonstrating how the application works if you do not have a webcam. And may I say that the interface of moonfruit is so easy I had the website up in a couple of hours.

Cheers!

Ever wish you had a moonfruit? I did. In fact, I did so much so that I created a portal for those who, too, wish they had a moonfruit. Thus, Wish I had a Moonruit was born.

http://wishihada.moonfruit.com/

The title is clever, if I do say so myself. And because I'm so environmentally friendly, I reused much of the starter text on the page, saving keystrokes and thereby electricity as my computer can be shut off sooner, thereby saving the world, and thus, Moonfruit. You're welcome.

I designed http://www.fabfiction.moonfruit.com... a 3 years ago for a web design competition being run by Channel4. I actually came out as the overall winner for the competition (beating designs from the two age categories older than me). Further details are here: http://www.channel4.com/learning/mi...

It was really a phenomenal experience, the site got a lot of press attention across the world (I tracked blog posts from America to China), and although it isn't updated any more, it still gets a decent number of clicks and I still get people emailing to say 'thanks, your site has helped me [or my son/daughter] to get into reading'. Incredible stuff - and all thanks to Moonfruit for the design back-end!

On a side note; I was quite chuffed when you guys decided to cut ads on the free sites. Cheers!

I would like to submit my website www.garethmclearnon.com to win the creativity contest. I've been with moonfruit since December last year and I love it. I love the functionality of the drag and drop design, the easy resizing and manipulation of images, the animation effects to make your site look that bit more "expensive" - I've used fifteen "image effects" on my front page alone including "fade" and "fly". Moonfruit gives me full e-commerce functionality and I've sold quite a few of my CDs through my website. It lets me add music to pages seamlessly - important for me as a musician. I love the fact that I can use large and colourful jpegs as links - rather than the usual "boring" list of website names. Lastly, and importantly moonfruit gives me excellent google placement. I've been evangelical about moonfruit to my friends, and the recent twitter promotion has made everyone much more aware of it as a web-building tool. Congratulations on a genius bit of marketing!

I think I should win as I have a very successful website built with moonfruit. My website is www.bristolnightlife.com and I have put alot of effort and work into it over the last year.. the website has started to become so popular, i relised I needed membership.. I thought this was the end of the road, but then bang!.. moonfruit releases membership tools - Im now half way through the new version of the website which can be found at www.bristolnightlife.t83.net (technically this is the same website) as im am transferring over the data to the new design... I think if it wasn't for moonfruit making my life so much easier, with the best online, flash builder that is also probably the most search engine friendly building tool available... my site may not be where it is today... Thank you moonfruit and let's hope many more happy years to come! -
P.S - type 'bristol nightlife' in Google, and you'll see how good seo does work with moonfruit..

* Only site of it's kind (to only interview people and post all the interviews as text not video).
* Looks very professional and simple, uses the features given by Moonfruit well.
* Updated several times a week, shows that other people can use Moonfruit can support this.
* The site supports two charities, as you can see from the links on the right.
* I am only 16 and was able to build the site, shows anyone can do it.
* I could really use a new computer =D

Hope you like it!

A web site must reflect it's content. For showing art works it's best to choose a simple design, for music/bands you can choose a more "wilder" design. My design ( http://www.aminabech.com ) is simple because it's the content that is important.. I've designed a website for an aerealist as well - with a completely different design: have a look at http://www.veronicaljosnes.com
I've designed about 13 moonfruit pages; for me, my aliases, and a couple of friends.. I had never worked with web design before I found moonfruit through google search. It's so simple that even grandmothers can use it!

toebile — Tue, 07 Jul 2009 15:49:49 +0100

Hi there ^^ So why should I be picked? I honestly have no idea as it is just a website that represents me... I sometimes use it as a blog to post about my daily life but unfortunately I can't always get myself to doing that. But I still love my layout 'cause the colours simply match.... and of course it's a place for my friends to go and see what I'm doing (when I'm not already twittering about it xD)..... Why I could really use this MBP? Well I'm starting at the university quite soon and a MBP would be really nice to take with me to uni ^^

http://www.contestqueen.com

I think my website should be picked becasue it's the only one of it's kind - a hub of all things contesting. I teach others how to add more fun, excitment, and even prizes! into their every day lives.

My site features hundreds of links. From Getting Started, to Avoiding Scams, to the next sweepstakes convention information, plus links to all the websites in Canada and the US that list contests and sweepstakes, judging agencies, sweeping software, etc..

If people want to learn even more, I have over five years of archives if my newsletter The Winning EDGE, 18 months of my blog www.fromthe.contestqueen.com and 14 months of my online radio show www.blogtalkradio.com/contestqueen.

Of course, being the Contest Queen, how could I not enter, because You Can't Win If You Don't Enter!!

My website created by myself and devoted to a historic, creative and important building of art!!!!!!!

http://www.metromediasquare.com/

Decades of showcases of talent that sadly, is now no more. :-( However, the land *IS* being put to good use. It's now a high school! :-)

Even if I *don't* win a MacBook Pro (but I *hope* I *do*!), the website will continue to serve as a legacy for what the name stood for!

Luke Jones — Tue, 07 Jul 2009 15:45:56 +0100

Hello, I think I should win because I spent so long on both the design and content of my website, it's taken me over a year to develop it to where it is today, both the back end and the front end, and now that I'm in a position where it's getting consistent hits, I know that I've got a nice looking and effective website that showcases the work that I've done and also helps people to understand the job that I do much easier than many other people in my position.

Hello, I think I should win because my website offers rare one of a kind pieces of art. They are hand painted to the smallest detail, then I use decal paper and apply the names and logos. The reason for the website is so my customers have a place to go and bond over the one of a kind figures and collectibles they now have. Its also a place where I can resort to and edit and update if I am having a bad day.

All you people that are bitching need to relax. If you were dumb enough to spend so many hours making a creative way to use #moonfruit just to win a free MBP, then that's your fault. Tons of people are submitting stuff and just cause you think yours is creative enough to be mentioned, doesn't mean everyone else does too. It's a campain to win a free item...so take it for what it's worth and get over the fact that you are not singled out for your creativity.

Hi Reiyano,

We're not blocking anyone, so don't worry. We're just a bit overloaded with so many messages, and been working all weekend too. This Twitter campaign has certainly created a lot of work, but that could be described as a "high quality problem" ;-). We'll try to post more entries up, but we are seeing them all! Take care,

Thanks Joe for some clarification I only did it as much cause you have zillions of traffic hits and thought it would be lost and overlooked. I am sorry just am a determined person, regardless if you liked my slogan or entry. I wanted to also get my #moonfruit entries in a lot as well. Hey look I understand your flooded I just was upset you called me a bot yet you never mentioned anything about my creative entries, which where DAYS before any of these great entries have came in! I made my peace and I will shut up..I just think as proper as I know all Brits to be we could be a little more kind to people that have taken time to go above and beyond for you, even know they may or may NOT win anything...people do like some credit..oh well thats all over the water now, I appreciate your response....btw since im so fast with tweeting is there a job opening position, JUST kidding.

Hi Derek,

Sorry you seem a little upset.We didn't delete your entries, just asked you to stop tweeting quite so much as you were. People can enter more than once, but when it just becomes a constant stream of just moonfruit messages several times per minute, we would ask you to refrain from doing that. I hope that makes sense.

A little backlash and mixed emotions starting to come through already, what will it be like once the 10 MBP's are gone and 40'000 + people don't have one after hours / days (10 to be precise) of twittering and creating creative eye catching responses to the campaign. How will the Moonfuit community feel with the external promotional campaign once it has ended, will there be a loyalty promo or giveaway?
My feelings are the campaign is huge and will probably prove to be a huge success, but "With great power comes great responsibility" - SpiderMan
Are you prepared for the negative backlash or are you hoping the positive will outweigh the negative, A marketing campaign always need's a backup plan,
P.s. Moonfruit is Awesome! i can not fault it, and if i could find anyone else offering their services and more i would be with them, the truth is i can't. Keep up the good work!

Why carn't Moonfruit have there own blog to do this ? why you relying on a free social site ??

damn Derek that sucks. I too spent hours (15 hours) working on a project and they have yet to notice it at all. I feel your pain. I lost sleep on my entry! hope that we both get entered into the contest eventually though. I dont think moonfruit is a bunch of jerks... I just think they got a lot on their hands very quickly and are having a hard time responding to it.

Hi Drew,

Thanks for your detailed note. Our subscribers are really at the heart of what we offer and the people we aim to please. We spend 90% of our resources on development and customer support, upgrading and supporting the software (free customers don't get support), and only a limited amount gets spent on marketing.

We have been blown away by the success of this Twitter campaign. The reason we chose Twitter was because it can go viral so quickly and is easy to pass on. Something that the other networks don't do so quickly or easily.

Both traditional marketing and the provision of free sites leads to more customers signing up. With more sign-ups we can hire more people and develop more quickly. We've just added to the Support team and now have ticket times back to a few hours and the Dev team will be added to again after the summer.

So thank you again for your feedback. We do hear you and want the same things you do - an awesome site builder with a full feature set and world class support. That's what we're aiming for and we're on the road to it!

Take care,

Joe

We wouldn't be here today without all you wonderful people building websites with us and allowing us to support you in your online adventures. So a special thanks to the 2m+ of you who've built a site with us!

You may not like all what I have to say but here goes anyway (reality check)

well done for reaching 10 years I remember though you nearly going bust...

Twitter has only been around for a very short amount of time so not sure what that has anything to do with you or your Birthday....

Also well done for having a competion however my only gripe is not everyone is or indeed wants to use Twitter ( there is enough sites out there without anymore)

It would of been a lot fairer to use other established websites as well as Twitter such as myspace facebook even youtube etc etc

All I can see about the competion is for others to advertise Moonfruit on your behalf free advertising for you and really has nothing to do with 10 years or a birthday....

You pay thanks for (So a special thanks to the 2m+ of you who've built a site with us!)

However 2 million do not pay (it is the paying members you should be paying thanks for as they are the ones who piggyback free websites now)

I really think you should concentrate more on the paying customers you have now some very very loyal who have paid from day 1 and offer them something even for free...

How about those that have paid for there sites for say 5 plus years to get some freebies ????

I am in all favour of good new things but sometimes it seems all these surprises gifts treats freebies are always for new customers ...

I notice now you offer free websites without even any advertising I find this unfair as a paying member at least an advert pays for itself...

Also if to many people sign up for free websites is this non commerical and also a drain on servers etc for those that pay who want a fast reliable connected service...

I think you should not loose faith or hope but also think how you nearly went bust before !
I have to admit I am seeing some repeat patterns happing,,,,

I am not trying to blow your candles out on your Birthday ( I think constructive thoughts) good or bad help the client to understand there customer more...

I wish you every success for the next 10 years ( I want you to do well) but please do not loose sight into the paying members who pay your wages and also pay now for the free websites...

I pay £15.99 a month for my websites.. however what is actually stopping me signing up several times using differnt emails and getting my free websites ??? Nothing....

Area's that you need to work on is sorting out some of the bugs in the software you still have and communicating and replying more quicker to customer emails and forum messages of help and support...

Everything else is just spot on but do not loose sight who and what is your market....

Yours Drew

Hi Birdie,
The best way to turn a Word doc into an image is to take a Screen shot. Paste it into an image program (plenty of freebies on the web including paint.net) then save as a JPG.

Images can be uploaded through the mini-toolbar (part of the Editor) if you give a member edit rights, or you can add a form to a members page and allow them to include images if you need other information.

Paid membership is some way off. We would be more likely to focus on e-commerce first and even that is unlikely to make headlines for sometime. Sorry we can't be more specific.

Hi Martin,
Twitter and RSS are different. We embed the RSS feature into a few of our widgets but that is fairly simple on the newer widget types. We do not offer a Twitter feature though if someone has developed a HTML version that could be uploaded it might be worth testing on our HTML snippet widget (more info on this available elsewhere in the Lounge.

Hi Gary,

The Directory is a very old widget and at the time of building offered advanced features. At present though it does have a few limitations. The only suggestion I could offer is to create your own directories within your files and any files being uploaded by members would be placed in the root directory. This will not solve the tracking of images although, depending on the use of the directory, you could get members to use the advanced form where they attach images and you then have a record of who sent what image.

At present there is no fix. To my knowledge this is the first time this issue has been raised. There is no current limit on membership numbers. If you want more web space, it really just depends on what package you are on. Although we do offer some supermax packages providing more space and bandwidth (for more information please contact support).

What makes you think you would be ripped off? We don't push Reseller packs on people who do not need them. They have a specific purpose, hence the option of the supermax packages.

You could also go into your library and remove any images you don't wish to be there if you don't want them cluttering your account.

Thanks

Hi, i've discovered a huge problem with the directories, when a member uploads images while listing, once they have uploaded there main image, it says upload success etc, but then it says you can upload another image/file etc or finish uploading. But in the directory itself you can only have one image per listing, I also have no way of tracking images in my file manager when members have uploaded them as i cant link them to any listing, members are uploading more than one image which is pointless as a second image cant be used, also its using up my web space! I've had excellent reviews on forums but i am concerned about webspace (wasted webspace) also what happens to the images that are uploaded by members when they delete there listing?

Is there a fix to these problems? as they are serious.
Is there a limit on how many members you can have?
What is the next step for gaining more webspace? not a reseller, just think my site is going to be very popular, only been on google for 3 days and the interest has been mad.
But dont want to get ripped of with reseller prices.
Also dont want to pay for webspace that isnt getting used correctly due to a fault with the directory uploading.

Hi Birdie, without downloading and testing the software we cannot say. If you can get a demo map from them, or if you build a map on trial then you can try it and see.

Thanks for you comments Fiona, we do try to make the software as simple as possible. But we can always improve the FAQ, the instructions and the guides.

Cenya, if you wish your site, advert free just confirm and we'll change the coding for your account. Nothing will change but the adverts going.

Steve, at present the space around your site is unusable, unless you wish to widen your site and take up more screen real estate.

Hey Joe, am I right to understand that if you currently have a free site that your ads aren't taken away? Because as of right now my site still has ads, and shows no difference (that I see) of membership changes or login information.

Hi Jeff, we weren't aware there was a problem. We've not had any mention of this in our Support system other than here. If it is still causing an issue, please contact support and give them as much detail as possible. Thanks

Joie, if you add a Pop-up Gallery widget to your page, go to the Setup tab on the editor and then use the Advanced button you will see a check box to allow "image download". This is the only widget that will permit file download and control. You could also turn the image into a link (through the Editor) to download that image file, or you could add a link under the image (say 'Download' or image_name) and link that to the file.

Hi Robert,

Seeing as you're on a free site package we try to get some benefit - a little advertising. If you do wish to remove this then can we suggest you consider upgrading. The Lite package is quite cheap and you do get extra disc storage for files (20MB > 50MB).

Kind regards

HTML widget - what have you found? - EduKate

EduKate — Wed, 27 May 2009 19:05:14 +0100

I use JAlbum to display my photos to clients, and I would love to embed this within my website, rather than providing a link. When I tried it (as the album provides an embed code) I just got one photo up and when you clicked on it, it was just a link... it would not run within the site. I also tried a selection of the downloadable widgets, like google weather etc, but couldn't get any of them to work. I did manage to get a google map on one page. I think it's a great idea and would be really excellent for my sites, especially the school site I run (www.waterortonprimary.co.uk)

@ Joe (Moonfruit),

Hi Joe, Reading what you said to bikini joe you stated membership took 5 months and you suspect ecom to take more. Isnt the ecom already started as there are example screen shots of the admin part of the store in this blog ??

Wouldnt this huge part and aspect of the new widget ecom system already half way through in development push the release date of the new ecom widget system sooner ??

Or isnt the other aspects such as payment gateways implemented in to the new systen yet ?? if you cant really state any on going projects or implementations on the blog il understand, im just trying to understand as fully as possible.

On a personal note did Ian get back to you with my problem and or a solution ??

Great update guys. I really appreciate these changes, if I can get them to work.

I'm trying to enable the Facebook member login, and I have enabled API thing in the 'send a message' tab.

If I try to enable 'connect your site to facebook' I get the following message;

Your site needs a login page to allow visitors to login or signup using their Facebook username and password. To create your login page go to 'pages' -> 'add new page' -> 'login/join' page and then return here to set your this new page as your login page.

I have got a login/join page! I have tried having it hidden, and visible and as the home page, but everytime I press 'fix' the same message comes up.

I wish the Moonfruit staff would produce some informational videos showing and telling about the in's and out's of the new Moonfuit product developments :)

I really feel that Moonfruit product update Videos would better orient and teach us Moonfuiters about how to best go about using, integrating and updating our Moonfruit build sites with some or all of these new Web 2.0 features.

It's kind of like Moonfuit/Sitemaker is a full Web 2.0 technology platform but the methods used to teach the uses are simple old school text.

I very much appreciate all the new Moonfuit product developments and updates - I kind of think a learning center type environment might help us Moonfruiters move up the Web Moonfruit 2.0 learning curve both easier and faster.

Hi Emre,

Our software doesn't provide for pop-up windows. If you wish to add one to your site you would need to go to the Forum and ask the talented Flash Builders amongst the Moonfruit community to give you a quote on building one for you.

As for HTML code for advertising, please see our previous articles about the HTML snippet widget. This may solve your problem.

Hi Birdie,

The current RSS tools hang off a couple of the newer widgets only: Forum, Comments. We intend to widen this offering in the future. Paid membership will come with the new e-Commerce tools - our next big project. Membership was first as a platform to enable e-Commerce to be applied over the top. And payments via other services like Visa and MC will also included in this project.

Hi Osito,

Don't worry, we're not trying to blame you for it. Systems info includes where you are. If all you home PCs are doing the same thing, then it may be an issue between your ISP and us, or a geographical region and us. Again not you fault, but helps us diagnose it. We're not seeing this on all sites and users, so it's not a general problem. But without further information we can't help solve it.

Does that make sense?

@ Bikini Joe - thanks for the comments. I'm sorry the release is disappointing for you. But we have been saying the same thing for some months now, which is that we have to redo the membership to lay the foundations for the ecommerce system. Without effective member/client management it would be too hard to manage a decent ecommerce site. So we've done that.

Re the social networking, you're right we will never be a social networking site, and nor are we trying to be one. However we do recognise that many of our customers have Facebook/Twitter accounts, etc., and the ability to publish content from their site to those channels can support marketing of their site. These tools really support site growth and site marketing, so that is why we have included them.

So now we can start to move onto the ecommerce. But to set your expectations here, it's not going to be quick. This kind of project will take many months (the membership took 5 and I suspect ecom more). I'm sorry this is no doubt disappointing. I would love to see everything come out more quickly, but we can only go as fast as we can go. As we grow we increase the size of our development team, but there are still limits. Every release has to be integrated into hundreds of thousands of live sites, so we do have to be careful and take our time.

I hope that gives you a better understanding of why we've done the things we've done. Thanks,

Joe (without a bikini)

I agree with Kombosillah's comments (post 56) about password reset needing an acknowledgement screen. But there is another related problem.
My site is set so that I approve new membership requests. When a propspective member submits their information, they see no message to say that their request is pending - just a blank registration form and they are very likely to repeat the process before giving up.
This needs tidying up.

@ Tommy - you're right about the change to page addresses in the URLs. This is actually as a result of SEO requests from users. Previously if your page is 'photo gallery' it is called /photogallery, but after the change as you say it is /photo-gallery. This allows google to correctly identify the two words which will help the SEO. The previous version does still work, but as a permanent redirect to the new version. So google will not see this is duplicate content, but merely that the content has moved. This is a normal way of updating a website address and recommended by google. So it should be an improvement, not a damaging move.

Re the membership not loading, you may want to submit a support ticket about that as I'm not sure what would cause this. You may also want to upgrade your Flash player, as the new 'Flex' tools require 9 or higher.

Hi Joe,

I have now problems with any of my sites since the upgrade and have also managed to ugrade my sites to the new membership level.

However, the following issues were highlighted when I tested the functionality of the new membership tool.

1) Password Reset - once you decided to reset a password and follow the procedure of supplying your email address and hitting the submit/send button, nothing happens (although by hitting the button, the task is actully actioned), however, there is no indication as to whether or not the form has been successfully sent. A few more clicks ends up sending numerous password reset emails! Would it not be possible to display a message such as "sent" "submitted" "success" etc.

2) Customising registration success message - There appear to be to no way of customising the message displayed once members have successfully registered. The default Moonfruit text is displayed and the message in my case has no connection to my sites.

3) Receiving emails from the site - when members are registering on the site, "receive emails from this site" box is by default left unchecked. So far, most of the people who signed up on my site forgot to tick the box eventhough they wanted to receive emails from the site. I had to delete them and ask them to re- register and check the receive email box. It may be easier to check this box by default like previously and if members do not want to receive emails from the site, then they can uncheck the box?

Apart from these issues, the new tool rocks!

Hi there, I want to add a reservation booking facility to my website as I want to rent out my holiday home. I actually plan to build a dedicated website for it with moonfruit. Anyone know if it can be done or will I have the HTML issues? I dont want to pay a few hundred for software that then cant be used..

Many thanks

BEHIND. You will never compete with what is free for everyone..facebook, MySpace, Twitter etc...whats the deal...build something you can CHARGE FOR!! sorry for the Rant..I just don't get the direction of trying to catch up to the Monster, Mega Free Social sites...I do know that what you are calling "Membership" must apply and will be needed to create a profile for a Online Store..Is it just imposible to build a good FLASH BASED SHOPPING CART...perhaps

I have a few problems regarding this.

1. Most of my webpages have been renamed, for example if a page name is 'Photo Gallery' its now called 'Gallery' or 'Photo-Gallery'.

Before URL: www.mysite.com/photogallery/757564574
NOW URL: www.mysite.com/photo-gallery/757564574 or www.mysite.com/gallery/757564574

This is going to penalize my website in google search because google is going to see this as duplicate content, please get this fixed immediatley.

2. The new members area doesnt load whatsoever.

3. All websites take forever to load.

Can you please sort all this out, I know you are working hard adding widgets here and there, but those widgets you have added will not benefit my site, and you have caused more harm than good, by making my site appearing as having duplicate content when googlebot surfs my site.

Hi Joe,

The new permissions page is great.

Are there any plans to remove the sitemaker 4.0 branding from the edit screens? I am just starting out as a web developer and will be purchasing the reseller package and wondered if that facility was in the reseller package? As I don't want clients logging in to change text and seeing Sitemaker 4.0, as they could then google it and find Moonfruit.com.

Thanks.

@ bdesigner - yes, there is a bug with the horizontal scroll bar. A fix should be going out shortly. Thanks.

@ Ian - yes, there is a bug with the forum on mf in IE7. That will be fixed shortly too. And currently the email members is only text, so there is no way to embed an image. We've found that text only emails are less likely to be junked than full HTML emails. You could create a page with more colourful information on your site and then include a link to this in the mail. I hope that helps,

Thank you for the new feature it will be usefull for many of us. Unfortunatly it seems that some of my site (especially http://www.thierrydemarquest.com/) has a problem to be displayed correctly in resolution like 1024x768 even if he has been made for best viewing in 1200 x 1440. last version of moonfruit made the browser (IE or any other one) creating a horizontal and vertical scroll bar. It seems that is desapeared on the nex version of moonfruit relase. Could you check if there is any problem with HTML and SWF capabilites (I am currently running IE 6 + Flash 10) Best regards

PS : there is also a problem on your Forum page on moonfruit.com it seems it's absolut position split it on the right side making it moving to the left part of the browser without any view it's look's asi if the origin of the sprite has been changed to the half of it.

Hi Ian,

The best thing to do is create a new page for the login widget, then hide it from the menu. You can then have small 'login' links on your page that go to this special login page. We hope to introduce other versions of this widget in the future, but for now this is the only one. I hope that helps,

As if you click the login/sign up for the existing login panel it still mentions sitebuilder.. however there is only 1 log in panel available in the libary and its massive, just like the comments box.. which is way to big and i cant fit it on my site without ruining the whole design... can we not just have a little link or something?

@ Halo - we will be adding new RSS tools in the future, but they are not yet finalised for which features.

@ Ian - members uploading profile pics has been discussed but not put into development. At the moment if members join via Facebook Connect it will use their FB image when they are logged in, but we're not currently adding that to posts on forums or anything.

@ Osito - we're not getting any other reports of this. It might be worth clearing your cache and restarting the browser to see if any of that helps.

Thanks,

Hi Kombo,

yes this looks like a bug. We'll look into it. If you convert your site to 'private membership' then it will work. You can do this on the 'settings' tab. This error is happening while your members still become members of 'sitemaker' before joining your site. But we will fix this. Thanks for letting us know,

Hi Joe,

Big up to all you guys at Moonfruit! The new membership tool is a fine piece of work by Moonfruit.

I have utilised the new membership widget and the one problem I am having is that the the new account creation stucks at username. It keeps saying the username chosen is already taken regardless of what username you choose.

Perhaps you could point me to the right direction as to why this is happening?

I wanted to use the html widget to incorporate paypal's website payments pro button code, which allows users to pay by credit card without having to sign up for a paypal account.

When I pasted the generated button code into the widget, it displays the paypal button, but when clicked takes me to a paypal page that says "Sorry — your last action could not be completed."

Is this a mis-function of the widget, or am I doing something wrong on the paypal side of things?

I used it for a lot of widgets but deleted them as not everyone uses IE...

The widget is brilliant!

I use it to place a badge on my site which links to my royalty free portfolio of illustrations-
and can now get referral fees from this link when somebody signs up and buys from the site.
I am so non-technical its not true but this was easy to do

thanks Moonfruit

Well I am completely new to website building so it could be me! I used the widget to insert the code for a webring I have joined. However it does not show correctly on the page the icon and navbar are missing. If I click show page in html it shows up perfectly I am using IE7. Not sure what is wrong?

I cant get my "godaddy" domain certified seal to appear in your widget. Although it does contain java in the html script. Will this work soon?

I have used it to provide live chat service to my visitors with providesupport.com. Seems to work fine, but only with "html code for websites where scripting is prohibited"...
No link here since I have used a hidden test page.

Very nice job.
Well done!

I downloaded the widget and I have used it to display the latest weather in Florida for my website www.emeraldislandtownhouse.com

I cut and paste the code from www.widgetbox.com and it works great.

So I think a weather widget would be a great idea.

Thanks

Martin

I don't have any problems viewing or adding the widgets on my mac using Firefox 3.0.7 or Safari 4 beta.

I would love to change out the video player on my site to a youtube player if I could confirm this on the windows side of things.

Really want to use this for affiliate programes

Thanks Isaac, saw it, looks good ;-). The Firefox issue is a known issue due to a bug in the FF browser. They have fixed the bug, which will be released in the FF 3.5 update, which should be out in June. After that we can make the HTML widget work in FF too. Thanks,

Joe

I have recently built, and still in the process of finishing, an online portfolio for my recent work (however primitive), using Moonfruit and I found the HTML snippet quite useful. I am currently using the snippet to display the twitter flash html app to allow my updates to be shown on my site. Using Internet Explorer I have found no problems displaying the twitter app on my homepage, but when viewing the site with Firefox it only displays the app on the bottom of the screen, = (. The link to my site is http://isaac-volpe.moonfruit.com/, if you care to take a peek.

Hi Joe,

I was one of the guys who downloaded the HTML Widget and have tried it on a few things and I think this idea from Moonfruit to get around the HTML issue with a flash based application is a step in the right direction.

I used the widget as some sort of a headliner for my forum and you could check this out below:

Keep up the grand work at Moonfruit!

Hi Craig, Excel may not create the cleanest HTML code, and it may be that it doesn't work in some browsers, hence the problem in IE. Do you have a link to the page with the code on it?

I wanted to see if I could create a table using the HTML widget so exported one from excel. I'm using IE6, Flash 10 and several browser.
I have found that IE6 shows nothing, both Firefox and Opera display the table but unfortunately below the boundary of the web page. Can anyone suggest what I can llok for in the HTML code.
BTW can someone advise the easiest way to manage table data on Moonfruit.

I have used this Widget to make my Paypal functions more versatile.
so i created a button in Paypal that has a stock counter so after i have run out of a specific item Paypal states that it is not for sale making it a less manual process for me.

It also allows for drop down's so you can pick certain sizes of a product.

I think this is one of the best things to happen to Sitemaker as it opens the door to almost anything.

Keep up the good work guys. (and gals)

Well I've started using it with Google Calendar as I find it much more flexible and user-friendly compared to the current Sitemaker calendar widget. I'm sure I'll find more uses for it in the future, especially when more of the bugs have been worked out. Great work so far though!
