I love the Bubbles template, it's simple and fun!
My blog definitely needs a makeover for the new year! I'm dedicated to being an active blogger for '08 and would love a nice template for motivation.
Thanks for this opportunity!
What a great giveaway!
If I won I would like the header, background and color coordination. I would like a new look just to refresh my blog, and because I need some new colors. I can't change the color of the printing in my side bar and it doesn't show up well. Thanks for doing this - I'll be posting about it!
I would love to win this. My blog needs help. I love the Bubbles template.
My church blog needs a unique look. I would probably choose the header, sig, and divider or color.
I would love to win this because my blog needs it!! I would pick a new header, background image, and button!!
thanks
please, count me in. thank you :)

I'm not certain what I would get, but I know I would love a new header, button and a third column added.
I'm blogging you at momsblogging.com on Thursday for my contest frenzy column.
My new food blog is in desperate need of design work! If lucky enough to win, I would choose a custom header, color coordination, and add a column.
And I added your button to the sidebar on my main blog, momlady.blogspot.com. Thanks!
Count me in! I would go for the custom header, background and navigation bar.
My blog needs to dump the free design and have a customized look to be more credible.

Hi Laila,

If I do win, I hope to have a button, header and signature created.
Thanks for the contest.

Oh how I need this! I would pick the header, background image & button!
And I have your button on my blog (I guess I'll update it to the new & improved one, though! Love the new look!)

I blogged you at Thrifty Mommy.
I love Revka's designs. She has an awesome job again.
knowhimwell at hotmail dot com
p.s. I would like to win this so that my blog could get a fresh look.
I've been dreamy of a new header forever! I have the picture in my head just can't do anything about it so I would love to win this! I'd go for these three custom designs:
-custom header
-custom banner/button
-custom signature
I visit your blog as often as I can! It's such a great resource! I had your old button on my blog but just copy and pasted the new one instead. Great look!
www.awifeofvalor.blogspot.com
I'm making the change from a fun blog to a more pro looking site for my TV articles. I really need a header that's TV oriented, a banner for advertising and maybe a matching sidebar!
I love to build websites, but graphically, I'm all thumbs. Wanted to leave my email but this comment system wouldn't let me! I'll check back.
Wow! A contest! I found you because I was looking for other bloggers named Melody.
I could seriously use a blog makeover. My blog is fairly new, and I'm finding that I have no idea what I'm doing... I think I might choose a custom header signature and background if I were to win...
Oh - and I added your button to my blog (all by myself - yay me!)
http://scooterm74.blogspot.com
Thanks!
Melody

Take one look at my plain blog and you will see why I need help.
The Delanie template is very nice. I'm sure RS Designs could really do something with my blah blog! Help me!
Oh my blog is just toooo boring! I would love to give it a makeover.
The bubbles temp is really fun and cute!
Thanks!
Oh, I want to win soooo much. My blog is very standard and mundane.
I like pink and I really like the lily pads.
My 3 option choices would have to be a new header, a signature and a button. Oh how fun!!
Oh my gosh, what a great giveaway! I don't know enough about changing my template and I would love something catchy and fresh. As nerdy as it may sound, I want my readers increased and a new look would encourage me to blog more often....blah, blah, SUCCESS!
I like the bubbles and Delanie (even though it's sold)
Count me in.
Whoops! I didn't leave my email address.
huserachel@gmail.com
and, I added your button to my page!!! I hope to send some visitors your way!
The bubbles template is cute.

I blogged about your contest here - http://www.contestbeat.com/spruce-up-your-blog-design/
All we do is write about contests in the blogosphere so hopefully we can send you a few more entries too!
Regards, Matt
My name is Angela Tregembo and I absolutely love blogging but my blog needs a makeover. I would love to win the silver design package and I would choose a new header, background, and color coordination. Thanks and good luck to everyone!
This would be awesome! My blog needs serious help and I have no idea how to do it! I love the bubbles template and I also liked the sunflower header with matching extras!
I blogged about your contest at tarasveiwoftheworld.blogspot.com
Thanks!
I have been wanting to start my own blog! This is the perfect way to start, and just the inspiration I need! I'm crossing my fingers!
I'm switching over to Wordpress soon and don't have a clue as to what I will do with my blog template.
I would love to have a custom header, divider and background image.
This is just what I need to start off the new year.

I really like the Cynthia template but I'd like to do something on my header that would include a picture...

Please, sign me up. Thanks a bunch!!

Revka has done some work on my blog and I think she's just great!
I'd love to have a total overhaul, but if I chose a pre-made template it would be either Delanie or Cynthia.
Thanks for the great giveaway!
I blogged you at http://qtpies7-goodstuff.blogspot.com
Mann!
I just now checked the designs at RS designs and dude they are so artistic at there work. They seem to be the bang right people to do the design for me considering my site is about Girls.
If I win I will prefer choice 1,6,8.
My new blog theSenorita.com is about Discovering Girls. I am currently using a free theme but I know why I need a makeover.
Here is the reason:
I have been blogging on my tech blog nofullstop.com for last 1 year and since then I have learned a lot about the world of blogs. I can write a 500 word article which will list points that how a custom design favors your success. A custom design will help me create a unique image in my readers eyes.
Just like when we say A for Apple we create a image of apple in our brain I want my readers to create a image of theSenorita
whenever they think about girls
OR
whenever they succeed in understanding there girls
OR
whenever there girl says that "you are my hero"
OR
whenever a guy wants to propose her girl (he can look into my yet to be written proposal tips category)
OR
whenever he receives a slap from her girl (if somehow she goes angry I want guys to think about theSenorita.com and visit it to understand girls in better way)
etc etc etc.
In short I want guys to create the unique image of senorita when they succeeds in love!
I am going to get a custom theme very soon and IF by chance I win this than you people have free reviews due on both blogs of mine nofullstop.com and theSenorita.com ;)
my email: webtechlog@gmail.com
Oh what fun! I've never had a custom blog before. This would be WAY cool! I would choose probably: a custom header, button & signature! Sounds dreamy! :) I've posted your button on my bloggie here: http://doreens-scrap-wonderland.blogspot.com/ .

I really need to reboot my blog so a new template might be just the right thing to get things back to where they were. Actually I just love the Pennies In My Pocket Template, I think it's so cute! But ok, I'm not very fond of pink so I'd probably ask for something greenish or maybe brown instead. ;-)
And my entry is found here: http://mayogiathome.blogspot.com/2008/01/another-great-giveaway.html I hope I win! *lol*
Oh wow!
I just added your button to my page.
I could so use a makeover. I have been trying to do it slowly myself but its not easy. :-(
I would love to be able to have a set page that I dont change that I love. Thanks for hosting this giveaway.
Nichole
Holy cow you post a lot. I missed this one somehow with all the moving and what not, and I had to scroll through a bazillion posts to find this contest. I need this. I love it. I want a blinged up blog. created1@charter.net
I have been wanting to work on my blog's design for a while...it is quite bland. But, a 6-week old daughter makes it pretty difficult.
I would chose a custom design with a new header, background image, and adding a column or possibly the custom navigation bar.
crap, I forgot my email on the above post. Sorry.
alisiab at mail2world dot com
OMG what do I NOT need? I need a total makeover! A custom design with new header and totally new navigation bar would be FANTASTIC!

This is awesome! I would love to win.

Great contest!
I love RS Designs and even did a post about her this month.
I already had your button on my sidebar but I updated to your new one. Love it!
I'd have her do a redesign of my new weight loss blog. I have no idea how I'd like it to look - I'd leave that up to her imagination!
cpamomva at hotmail dot com
I would love a blog make-over! I just started it to use for my birth photography! :)
I'd love to win this! If I won, I'd choose a custom menu bar, custom signature and custom divider for my site. I'm thinking about changing blogging platforms so this would be wonderful timing to redesign my site!
I blogged about your contest today:

I'd like a three column, but I love the Delanie template, with a custom header. I added PenniesInMyPocket to my blog!
Count me in for the contest!
I love these templates... which to choose, which to choose! I think I'm partial to the Cynthia template. I'm still using the free blogger styles on my blog :-( Hense the need for a makeover!
Hi,
I've blogged about the contest and linked using your banner.
Sorry about the last comment
Here is my entry
http://www.contestradar.com/win-a-custom-blog-design-from-rs-designs/
I would love to win a makeover because a new look would definitely mean a unique identity for my blog and this would help in its way to success
thanks,
vijay
I would choose a custom header, a custom background image and a custom navigation bar.
I need this because I'm still using a prefab template that a zillion other people use! I would choose a customer header, color coordination, and add a column.
I love this idea...my blog needs help...it's not yet "me", and I can't do that on my own! I'd like a header, color coordination, and an extra column...
Well first of all I love anything I can win! It makes me feel lucky and Special!
I love the designs that RS Designs has I really like the Delaine and the Bubbles, however I think it would be really cool to have something totally custom made for me, but honestly anything would be better then what I have.
I am so in need of a blog makeover, I am fairly new to this and I just used a template that I was easily able to find but as I read more and more blogs I see that mine could use some jazzing up! So PICK ME!!!!!!
BTW I also have placed a post on my blog because I love extra Credit!
Steph - swhln@aol.com
I love extra credit!! So I gave you a shout out on my blog - and specifically about this contest: http://momoftheyear-not.blogspot.com/2008/01/very-cool-blog.html

And I think I like the Dotted Pastel design the best.
I would love to have a new design for my new blog now that I have my own domain in the works!
If I won, I'd take the Custom header, Custom advertising banner and Custom background image.
I want to have a blog makeover to stand out from the crowd! My current theme is already ok but would love to personalize it a bit. I would love #1, 3 & 4.

Because I just started a parenting blog dedicated to my daughter, I would love a girly design! :-)
Email: wordpress [at] theparentingdiaries dot com
Oh man- do I ever need this! I have been trying to start a career in freelance writing- and that is supported partially by my blog which is very lacking in visual interest! I would choose the custom header, advertising button/banner and background image! Come on- show me the love!
You can reach me at chic_kenz(@)yahoo(.)com and my blog is www.mamakenzstudio.blogspot.com
