    Wow! I am shocked, shocked I tell you. I am flabbergasted that mine was chosen - a first! :ivar

    I didn't think I had a chance against the competition, so I was out looking for different perspectives at lunch time today. I guess I'll have to be looking for different perspectives of sound until the voting concludes. :D

    Thanks, Jeff! You made my day.

    Congratulations to all of the other entrants and finalists! It will be tough to decide which one to vote for. thumb.gif

    Wow - schweet - thanks to the judges for taking the time to compile your picks. It is an honor to be in the voting round.

    Congrats to the finalists!!!!

    I was a bit worried about a weird anomaly that I was seeing yesterday. after upgrading to Firefox 3.5 all the pictures started to look UGLY with banding and YUCKY pixels and my entry had some odd banding around the models neck. Now that I fixed the Firefox setting all looks good again. Everyone's shots look so much better!

    Once again an awesome round, Thanks
