    This looks like so much fun!

    If only I wasn't getting ready for a trip to Germany and having a very difficult week at work... With 4 cats, I'm bound to get a shot (or have one) that could work.

    Does this mean that LPS II won't be starting for a couple more weeks? I was dreading that it would begin while I'm on a plane to Germany, I won't have net access while over there, and I'd be shooting blind for the first round.

    There is bound to be an internet cafe or something, or you can always phone a friend and have them check. I got no idea when it's starting though.

    Anyhow, you should enter, Laughing.gifCats are more important than work :D

    Most of the towns that I'll be visiting are probably too small to have many internet cafes, although I know that a couple of the larger ones (Baden-Baden, where we are starting and Rothenburg towards the end of the trip) do. I plan to try to check (although I won't have time to read too much, plus, I'd rather go out and see more stuff anyway). I'll see.

    I'd try to cut out on the work, but I have a deadline of getting some stuff finished before I leave. Stuff that takes a long time at work, with big gaps of waiting. So, if I get a chance on Saturday, maybe I'll throw something together.

    You could try bribes for LPSII dates as well. :D

    Laughing.gifcat w/o caption is NOT a Laughing.gifcat!
    It ain't a Laughing.gifcat without a caption. Entry 21, your bribe needs to be seriously HUGE if you stand any chances!

    This contest is all for fun, but it's still dgrin, and thiefing images from elsewhere on the web (well-known ones at that, come on, who hasn't seen the green helmetted lolcat?!?!!!) and posting them as your own is just plain old not cool.

    Entry 26 - boooooo for you!!!

    Well, my cat ran away, so I can't participate... We're hunting the woods and intersections, and if we find him, I'll get a shot and post... We might have to rename him "Flat-Cat."

    OH NOOOOOO! POOR KITTEH! I hope you find him!

    On a side note, has anyone noticed how many of us have black cats?! My cat is almost solid black, with a hint of brown in the sun. And my dog is black and white. They match quite nicely.

    PS - remember this is rated pg - if you have to rename him flat cat - don't post it a picture!!!
    Love to dream, and dream in color.

    Yeah, black cats seem to be very common - and hard to photograph! My black cat seems to come out too dark or blown out all the time. rolleyes1.gif


    Flat cat picture != Rofl :cry

    another black cat
    Here's another black cat for you. I also have another black cat that has been missing.

    I have a question....help please

    I can't figure out how to add the exif...I read the links that tell you how in another messege but it did me no good (yes, I can be a little slow to catch on at times :D ) It seems the info with this photo isn't even on my smugmug site.

    I don't think we need EXIF for this contest, but there are some great threads on linking it at the start of each LPS round thread.

    Oh well if the Laughing.gif Cat builder site is stealing pictures then perhaps it shouldn't be linked.

    Amazing how something so simple can become so frustrating.



    I used Laughing.gif Cat builder. That's what I thought this contest was. SO I search umpteen thousand pages and pick pictures to find out it's not an Laughing.gif Cat builder contest.

    I didn't know Andy had included that link to the builder, we didn't exactly sit down and plan this little charade... spontaneous, fun, anyone remember those words??? I was following basic dgrin policy - no embedding of images other than your own.

    I've removed the link, and I'm quite ready to end this silly "contest" which was supposed to be a big joke for fun.

    Seriously folks, relax! rolleyes1.gif

    If anyone is getting "frustrated" by this lighthearted Laughing.gifcat nonsense, and spending "hours" on something, I'm scared of what will happen if/when LPSII actually starts!

    I'd say the builder is fine, long as the picture it's used on is original, right?. That's where this misunderstanding seems to have come from.

    I think this contest is fun! Keep it going! Least till I find a cat to shoot an entry with :D

    LPSII entries are going to require days of planning, shooting, finishing, re-shooting... No doubt about that, seeing how seriously beautiful entries the first one had!
    Creativity's hard.
