SugarLoot

Some awesome celebs are making their way to SugarLoot. You can read all about them in our next issue of the CandyGram. We know you have a lot to say about SugarLoot's star power. What kinds of celebs would you like to see sponsor contests on SugarLoot? Do you like discovering new talent (i.e. bands or actors) through contests? Do you like seeing familiar faces?

In 500 Words or Less is a film that follows the stories of different students applying to college. The winner of our In 500 Words or Less contest will get to be a part of this exciting film's promotional materials. If you're in high school or a freshman in college you should enter this contest because everyone has a unique and interesting story to tell about figuring out what they want to do with their lives. (For example, I have a great story about how learning to juggle is way harder than it looks.)

What are your goals for college, career, or life? For our wiser 'Looters, do you have any advice to give the young 'uns?

With some new contests underway this week, we need a fresh conversation so you can shamelessly promote your entries. Get those votes, 'looters and become a master at copying/pasting.

We're so excited for the Alicia Keys Best Individual Style contest and the Paris Hilton Hottie or Nottie contest. Paris and Alicia are both trendsetters.

However, style takes more than just a Forever 21 babydoll tunic or a Jaguar XK120. Using a combined philosophy of Tyra Banks and Christian from Project Runway, style is all about being fierce... we think.

Who do you think has the best individual style? Are there any celebrities or people that you know that have a personal style that you admire?

Here's a list of contests that feature Facebook Applications. Our contest applications can be installed right to your Facebook profile. These apps help you rack in the votes because your friends can give you ten's from your Facebook page. If you get your friends to install the application, then you can get even more people to vote on your entry. To install these applications, click the red box above the score on your entry, or just click below on the contest that you entered. Just fill out a few more questions and within moments you are well on your way to earning more votes and a higher score.

CandyGram #34 is about to arrive in your inboxes. In it, we ask you about your ideas for new contests.

Guys, what kinds of contests would you most likely enter? Would you like to see sports-related contests? Are there certain bands you would like to see sponsor a contest? Let us know your thoughts and ideas.

What are your favorite YouTube videos? Why do you like them so much? I personally can't enough of videos with people falling off of treadmills. What about you?

Clinton campaigned hard in Philly this week, but we're sure you can do a better job getting the votes on your entry. Use this conversation to promote your entries to let the entire SugarLoot community know you are in it to win it.

We are excited to launch the Max Ride Do Something To Save The Earth contest because we love watching your videos. We know you guys want to make the best PSA out there, so here's a place to swap tips and tricks for making the best video. Ask your questions about lighting, sound, or anything regarding uploading a video to SugarLoot. If you're a long-lost Coen brother, share your wealth of video-knowledge with the rest of the community.

Our Max Ride Do Something contest is all about saving the environment. Going green is the new black, but we know there are some people who are really in the dark about global warming. What are some things you guys do to save the environment? What kinds of tips do you have for the SugarLoot community to live an eco-friendlier lifestyle?

The next issue of the SugarLoot newsletter is making its way into your inboxes. Get the scoop on the new South Park contest, read the latest techniques for winning, and hear from a 'Looter who met the Shaun from Seether. We would love to know what you think about this week's CandyGram, so post your feedback below.

The conversations in this community section have been great. You guys have brought up interesting points and perspectives and we are sure you have much more to offer. What kinds of other conversations would you like to see in this section? Are there any topics of interest that you would like to discuss with the staff and other 'Looters?

After the contestants attempted to recreate Mariah Carey's singing talent, we just had to ask your opinion about the latest Idol-er to get kicked off. Let's say Simon returned to the River Styx where he belongs and American Idol was suddenly on SugarLoot. Who do you think would win?

We want to have a discussion about our new SugarLoot Awards. We are so excited we are able to award 'Looters for their hard work and participation on SugarLoot. How do you guys feel about the SugarLoot Awards?

You can brag about your SugarLoot Awards here. Who has the most awards? Which awards are your favorites? Have any questions about earning one or suggestions for new ones? Ask them here, too.
