They’ve monopolized magazine covers and encouraged moviegoers around the world to spend more than $1 billion at the box office. Surely, the three young stars of the Twilight franchise —Robert Pattinson, Taylor Lautner and Kristen Stewart— have earned a break in between big-screen installments of their supernatural saga.
As the clock starts hitting 12:00AM around the world today for people first in New Zealand, then Australia and Asia and tomorrow for people in Europe, Africa, North America and South America we’d like to take a few moments to give you our best wishes.
We wish you all the best for 2010. May the coming year bring you health, happiness and prosperity. It’s been great having you guys here at ToR. We’re looking forward to another great year with you guys! Have a great New Years!
We’d also like to take a moment to thank all of those who have helped us along the way as well. Corrina, who unfortunately is no longer here, we miss you Corrina.

Phew I feel like I just did an Oscar speech, but how many times a year do you get to tell people you appreciate them? We should do it more often but unfortunately sometimes we just don’t find the time.
DreamySim1 made an amazing New Years Wallpaper for you guys. Here it is, click to make it bigger.

For the past few weeks ToR has been running at a snail’s pace, a lot of people were saying they couldn’t access the site as well. We found the culprit in our widgets! (It wasn’t me who found it obviously, since I’m so techtarded
) . A huge thanks to our web guy Dom at www.legarsduweb.com who found the problem. The visitor map widget was bogging down our server, we removed it and now ToR is much faster! Let us know if it’s working better for you.
We haven’t been able to fix the comment e-mail notification system yet. All I know is some people are getting notifications while others aren’t.
I’d also like to say a huge thank you to JustKG and JustChristy who have been putting a huge amount of work into getting the new site back up. When we moved the site the majority of the pics in the posts didn’t make the move. Shannon and Christy have worked countless hours going through old posts and re-uploading about 10,000 pics onto the site. They’re almost done and I just wanted to give them a special shout out to say how amazing they are.
On another note thank you all for sending your pics in, we received over 1,500. I’m impressed at how everyone came together for this. It’s amazing.
Here are the winners of the ToR Christmas giveaway. I used Random.org to generate the numbers related to the specific comment. Here they are.
The winner of the cardboard Robward is Amy
The winner of the New Moon soundtrack and companion is Flavia

And the winners of the 5 Series City Mags are HiciHoney, HeidiforReal, Ellie, MonaRaja and Klili





Congrats guys!! Could you e-mail us your mailing addresses to thinkingofrob@hotmail.com, if not I will be contacting you during the week.
Gina from the VRO contacted us and asked us to do an interview tomorrow night on their show,Vamp Diaries. Isabel from Pattinson-Online and myself (FP and yes my name is Marie in case you didn’t know
) will be doing the interview with them . Hopefully I don’t screw things up
Here’s what Gina had to say:
“We (myself and Amy, our producer) were absolutely floored by the awesomeness of your video and campaign to respect Rob. We at Twilight Diaries have always been anti-pap”
Here’s the info from Gina:
Tuesday, Dec 8th at 9pm ET — The VRO welcomes Marie from ThinkingofRob.com to Twilight Diaries. Marie will tell us about the campaign “The Fans Fight Back — Respect Robert Pattinson” which has reached over 100 websites and thousands of fans and is still growing. Please join us and call in to talk with us about the campaign. (866) 588‑9254
**CHECK OUT THE NEW SITE HERE, WE WILL NO LONGER BE UPDATING ON TOR*
We’re making this post a sticky for the week. It will always be the top post even if we make new posts so scroll down.
Due to recent paps pics of Rob that came out today and invasive ones taken before (chasing Rob while he’s driving, taking pictures of him from rooftops), the fans are standing up and fighting back. We want the paps to know that we don’t want to see pics like these, so stop taking them. Stop invading his private life. Enough is enough. Because no person deserves this, celebrity our not. There are limits and you have gone too far. We know pap pics are inevitable, what we are protesting against are the particularly invasive ones mentioned above. He doesn’t want this, neither do we!
Here’s our way of fighting back, in less than 48 hours we were able to get 1,200 pics of fans posing with their arms over their face to show their protest. This is our way of saying leave him alone. We’re hoping this message gets across to the paps. Fans from all over the world sent in pics and translated quotes.
We, as site owners, don’t want to post these pics either. A huge group of fans and sites came together for this post. This is a collaborative effort between Thinking of Rob, Pattinson Online, EmsCharityKiss (who gave us the brillant idea) , In My Dreams, Eyes of Amber, Random Acts of Rob, Rob My World, Why not? Twilight, Rpattz and Me, Gossip Dance , Robmusement, Twilight Ladies , Edward-Cullen.Net and 100 other sites that you can find at the bottom.
We think it’s wrong that the paps are hounding Rob like this and we want them to know.

We’ve had the new site up for a few days now and it’s been a pretty hectic week. We’ve made some changes today (since we’re finally getting a little of time). We’ve added the e-mail comment notification replies back, Shannon also added the mobile web. We’re working out the little kinks when we hear about them. Sometimes we’re just not aware that it’s missing.
So we’re asking you guys for feedback. Noticed anything different? Things we used to have that we don’t anymore? Let us know. Your help is greatly appreciated!
For those who have asked we will be adding a gallery to the site in the coming weeks. We had already planned it but we just haven’t had the time to add it yet.
Thanks, ROBsessed!
