$10,000 contest is over! Get ready for our next one...

Our $10,000 video contest has come to an end. We would like to congratulate Thanks to my viewers for winning the contest with his video sending out a big thanks to his fan base. Complimenting Strangers came in second, Thank you Prairie! came in third, St. Albert the Great Compliments was fourth, and GNCS eCompliment rounded off the top five. We know all of the top vote getters worked hard at spreading the word about their video and sharing the good.

There were all kinds of submissions. We saw videos that went from one spectrum to the other. Both funny and serious; from professional quality to webcam, from a rap song to a commercial spiff to song and dance.

To everyone who submitted a video we say Thank You! for helping us share the good.

We will be running another video contest in January. We are making a few changes to the contest. There will be awards given to the top 3 videos instead of just one grand prize. Some of the new rules we are considering include having the ecompliments website URL on the video longer, stricter requirements on the complimenting nature of the video, and utilizing a panel to select the winning videos from the top vote getters.

Please email us with your suggestions about how we can improve our video contest.
