No matter how you feel about Valentine's Day, one can't deny that love is in the air. We even had our first Vox engagement last week! Since love knows no boundaries on Vox, we've joined hands with our Team Vox cohorts in Japan, Spain, and France to make hearts all over the world beat a little faster.

Want to share the love?

In honor of Valentine's Day tomorrow, Voxers around the world will all answer the same love-themed QotD and Vox Hunt prompts, and every response will automatically be tagged "loveisvox2008". Since all Voxers (no matter what language they speak) will be using the same tag, you'll be able to search on the "loveisvox2008" tag to see why they call love the universal language.

If you're in a "love it or leave it" kind of mood and not feeling inspired by the QotD or Vox Hunt, then share whatever your heart desires, but pretty-please (with Vox candies on top) tag your Valentine's Day post with "loveisvox2008".

What are you waiting for? People all over the world... Join hands... Start a love train!

(And, um, we promise if you do, we'll stop with the cheesy puns.)

Happy Valentine's Day!

xoxo,
Team Vox

We're feeling the love here at Team Vox HQ today, and wanted to share some of it with y'all.

We all arrived to a Valentine from Ben & Mena's little dog Maddy. 

Other Team Voxers were in the giving mood too;  Jamison distributed old school Valentine cards and Nick went with the non-traditional bacon popsicles, which Steve's chihuahua Rudy liked a lot.  There are gorgeous bouquets of flowers on the desks of about half the team. Maybe all this love had a profound effect on Rudy, because he tried to steal a kiss from Maddy.  Or maybe it was just the bacon popsicle.
Happy Valentine's Day!

Whether you're anticipating it with bubbling excitement or a vague sense of dread, chances are you're aware that Valentine's Day is one week away.

Here on Team Vox, our love knows no bounds.  We love our coworkers, our neighbors, our office dogs -- even our icon is a candy heart!  We're conspiring with our Team Vox cohorts in Japan and France to create a weeklong global Vox love-in.  To accomplish this, we're encouraging Voxers around the world to do a few simple things and tag them with "loveisvox2007" so we can all share the results.  Is love the universal language?  Guess  there's only one way to find out!

Here's how you can share the love:

• Add some love to your design!

In tomorrow's release we'll make available the winning designs from the Valentine's Day Banner Contest.  Switch over to one of these love-related banners, or even make a festive personalized banner of your own (the red or pink heart palettes will come in handy!)  If you make a love-themed personalized banner and want to share it, please tag it with "share this banner" and also with "loveisvox2007".

From L to R, starting at top left, the banners are: Fall in Love by yuke, You and Me by ishi, Puppy Love by puppy52, Glass Hearts by Terri, Efflorescent by stubbie23, Bubbly Pink Hearts by Stacey, Champagne Pink by Lilia, Love Mail Red by Mena, Arctic Circle by Taylor Savvy, Love Birds by Yasmina, Paperplane by Cindy S. and Fly Away Heart by studio524.

If you have a personalized banner but want to switch to a V-Day banner temporarily, you can do that!  Your most currently used personalized banner will be saved.  When you're ready to switch back to it, just click on "Personalized" and then select your preferred color palette.  Once you click the "Apply to blog" link in your color palette, your personalized banner will reappear on your blog.

• Answer Feb. 14th's QotD & Vox Hunt

On Valentine's Day next week, our QotD and Vox Hunt prompts will be love-themed and also tagged with "loveisvox2007", so if the prompts move you be sure to ring in!

• Suggest some <3 for the [this is good] box

We'll also have a special love-themed edition of [this is good] next Wednesday.  To help us prepare, please submit love-related posts and photos to be featured (use the handy "suggest this is good" link).  Whether the point-of-view is smitten or lovelorn or on-strike, all's fair in love and [this is good].

Help us make it a Voxy Valentine's!

With Valentine's Day approaching, you could probably imagine that we're already working on slipping a heart or two in some of the themes we'll be shipping soon. But since we know how creative all you guys have been with your own personalized banners, it makes sense to hold a Vox Valentine's Day Banner Contest!

Be creative! Be unique! The five banners that Team Vox likes best will be turned into themes and be included in a pre-Valentine's Day release that all Vox members will able to use.  The winners will also receive some cool Vox schwag (including a Vox T-Shirt!).

Get designing!  The deadline is soon: 11:59 PM (Pacific Time), Friday, January 26, 2007.

Head over to the Design blog for all the rules and details to enter the Valentine's Day Vox Banner Contest.
