Nominate your coupon pages round #1
1) Nominate one of your coupon pages that you created and are managing from the coupon Barnraising contest. It MUST be a coupon page built in the recent contest.
2) You can nominate more than one of your pages, but do so in a separate answer so I can chose the best page by selecting a single answer.
3)I will chose the winner this time, but in the future you guys will be voting on the winners!
4)The criteria for this round is to add a video or other media to the page -- something that makes the page more engaging for viewers. Some pages may not need videos, so either nominate a page of yours you think benefits from one, or add a photo.
Here are two examples of videos I added to my pages:

Here is a great example of photos that enhances a page from Krystyne20:

If you think two videos or two photos enhance the page, then add them!
How to add video and photos!
Adding video is fun and easy, so it is a great place to start. For those that have not added video before, go to the link section and chose featured object. Click edit and chose the video option. Put the link into the video section and then title it whatever you want. Then you can add text to describe what is in the video. Get creative here with the titles and text. It draws people in!
You do the same thing when adding photos, but instead of choosing a video, click photo and paste the appropriate link there. If you are pasting in a photo from flickr, be sure and give the person that took the photo credit by pasting photo by: ........ in the text section. You can still leave your own caption for the photo, but just include the person's name.
Have fun guys, and I look forward to seeing what videos and/or photos you add to your pages. Sometimes you can even add both!
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

M$I just added my first picture to my Budget Car Rental Coupons page. I think it looks really good!. If anyone has tips, please post them, any help is welcome.
Oh, this is my highest paying page so far, with almost M$2 so far. You have to start small to think big, right? :)

Nice page! I have a suggestion regarding your featured image: since the photo was originally an ad, it may be confusing to people who visit your page. For example, they may click "learn more" and find that they are only taken to the image url.
Good point.
Is there a way to make a picture link to the budget.com page directly, or should I alter the picture and host it somewhere else? I now have the convenience to use the budget pic itself, so I can quickly see when the deal is changed/removed, so I would prefer to keep that, if possible
The comment boxes are great-- it's a way to invite user involvement with the page--keeping them on the page longer. If you don't want them, you'll need to embed the photo in a regular section- not using the Featured Object. But I think you should keep them, and seed the discussion with an opening comment of your own.
Is there a way to remove those 'comment' boxes? I'd prefer to not have those...
Thanks, I did that. I asked to share experiences with the offers. Now let's see what gets posted :)
I like what you ended up doing -- putting a link to the official site. I think that works. Great comment to get people involved too.
