    Shayne,

    I've emailed books@sitepoint.com with the information you specified but have not heard a response back yet? If they are just swamped or something that's fine, no rush. Just wanted to verify that someone actually received my information for the pdf download for entering the contest.

    Thanks
    Deron

    Thanks Shayne, SitePoint, all! To be honest, I wasn't hoping on winning this contest, seeing as there were some really good entries from other designers.

    It'll be good to have this reference on my bookshelf next to my other SitePoint books. It'll be great to see my design on its cover.

    regards,
    Simon

    Hi All,

    We've picked a winner - Well done simonbun!

    The design is not 100% what we had in mind the closest to what we were looking for so we've decided to award the prize.

    For all those entrants who've not received the email from me. Shoot an email to books@sitepoint.com with the PDF you'd like as well at your contests username and our customer support team will arrange the PDF for you.

    Again thanks to everyone that entered!

    Warm regards,

    Shayne Tilley
