#1: A Dual Winner AGAIN! Topanga

Topanga has really gone out of her way to make some incredible pages, and this month seems to be no different than last!

She took the #1 Content Spot for her incredible and well-loved Seahorse Keeping lens. I never knew why I couldn't raise seashorses successfully until I read her lens. If you have an interest in seahorses in your aquarium, Lilly has given you all the information you need to do it well, do it right, and give your seahorses a happy life!

She also took the #2 Commerce spot with her Unique Products for Dogs. This lens has a huge selection of interesting and useful products, with loads of information in a very charming and interesting lens.

Congratulations, Lilly! We're very proud of you!

#2 Content Winner: Frankster!

Polar Bear Aware, in a tight race, took #2 Best Content lens. You simply can't read Frankster's page without falling in love with polar bears and caring about their lives and their fates. Frankie is also a newbie, joining Squidoo in March. However, she came on the scene blazing, winning LOTD and a huge audience almost immediately!

Frankie is another example of extraordinary and passionate people who are making a difference with Squidoo. How about YOU???

#3 Content Winner: Christene

Christene is another relatively new Squidooer with some incredible lenses and a way with people. She has been gracious and extremely helpful in the lounge with new and experienced alike, and took to Squidoo like a- well- Squid to water!

She took #3 for her Broadway Shows lens, an incredible resource for Broadway shows. You can't look at her lens and not know what to see on Broadway. The details are extensive! It took a great deal of work to make such a useful and informative page, and demonstrates very well her skills as a lensmaster.

Congratulations, Christene, on a lens so very well done!

A Dual Winner in April! Lady Gotrocks!

Lady Gotrocks outdid herself this month, winning both #3 commerce and #1 Commerce awards! She is a brilliant gem wholesaler and eBayer, who has done a wonderful job with her Squidoo lenses!

The #3 best commerce lens for April is the beautiful Comprehensive Guide to Buying Amethysts. Her pictures are stunning, and you'll learn more about Amethysts by looking at her page than you ever knew possible in such a short space. Her Amethyst page was incredibly popular.

She also took #1 best commerce lens for Sapphires. Again, with wonderful pictures and information- who knew you could get sapphires in so many colors? Who knew you could get the look of a diamond with a sapphire?

Lady Gotrocks is a genuine asset to Squidoo, like so very many of our great lensmasters! Congratulations!

#1 Content Winner: Horseboy Movie Project

Quoting our wonderful Julia Steffey in her lounge announcement, because it just can't be said better:

"Less can be more. There are a lot of monster-lenses out there (guilty as charged) and while they are often fantastic, more isn't always better. Sometimes simple (yet not simplistic!), clear and concise works best.
Compelling topic, clear layout, and a carefully chosen variety of related materials, information and merchandise win this lens top-spot for the March Content Competition. Follow the progress of this movie-in-the-making, a beautiful story of a father's unbounded love for his son and the lengths to which he will go for him. The lensmaster gives some background information and then lets the film trailer speak for itself. 'Nuff said! Horse Boy Movie Project by horseboymovie"

#1 Commerce Winner: Handmade Victorian Cards

Commerce lenses are such an important part of Squidoo, and we are always impressed by wonderful commerce lenses that make us comfortable, more knowledgeable and offer a special or hard to find product. Lakewaytexas is a lensmaster we would all be pleased to do business with.

Her Handmade Victorian Cards lens is an elegant presentation of information, photos, resources and purchasing opportunities that really struck our jurists and the voters as 'just right.'

Congratulations on a masterful commerce lens!
