    Truly wonderful!!

    I still remember the morning my granddaughter was born almost exactly 5 years ago. Nothing like it. Not even becoming a mother myself!!

    You have some really fun times ahead of you. A loads of photo ops.

    Congratulations to all who will love and help raise this child.

    I think the guy on the right needs some contrast adjustments, but the kid's just fine.. Oh wait, I'm not judging this one...

    Irregularities were discovered in the voting for DSS #27, and the round will no longer qualify for prizes or participation in Mega-Challenge #5. Entries will remain posted in the gallery, but the poll and results have been disqualified due to voting anomalies.

    Contests and challenges at DGrin are run on the honor system. Registering new users solely for the purpose of voting for an image is disrespectful of other participants, and it is dishonest. If it continues, it could result in banning or, worse, the dissolution of the challenges entirely.

    We'd like to maintain the spirit of our challenges, and we cannot do that without everyone's honest participation.

    Why can't just the entry(s) that have the irregularities be disqualified? Why should everyone be punished for their behavior?

    This doesn't seem very fair.

    bummer... :cry

    Kerry, how's about a public flogging? :whip mwink.gif

    I'm honestly a bit saddened that I won't know how I did, but was completely surprised that my photo made it to the vote with how many awesome photos were entered for this round. Nice work everyone! thumb.gif
