Xot said: Sure, you got time to peruse the forums but the contest page still says "no submissions yet." I'm only looking at a few threads here and there, like this one. Quote Got my fourth pic ready, just have to transfer it. And I re-did my third pic, I'm quite proud of this one. Cool, looking forward to seeing it! The reason the pictures haven't gotten posted yet is I need to write two new database-driven pages for the contest, since it's a bit different than the label contests. Won't take me too long, but I need to finish up building all these GreetingCarts first. ..Al |

I've mentally planned out my fifth and final entry but it will take a little while to set up. I had a list of no less than TWENTY ideas initially. I had to narrow it down for a number of reasons, not the least of which were the lack of the appropriate cart and inability to travel. |

I think we've all got lots of ideas that involve carts we don't actually own. I'm trying to aim for entries that are a bit grander in scale than the "Cat Trax + cat" pic I've done so far. The problem will be having the cart clearly visible in shot while still capturing the scene. (Annoyingly, I was at the local Casino -- the hotel they're attached to has a great lunchtime buffet -- just a day before this competition was announced. I could have done Slot Machine and Casino. Though I'm not sure they love people taking photos in there.) |

The problem will be having the cart clearly visible in shot while still capturing the scene. Yeah, I sacrificed the clarity of the cart for a good scene in a couple of 'em. But therein lies the challenge! I've been trying to do some less popular titles and some "witty"scenarios. |
