I think the chatter will pick up again once I post the many great photos I've already received. Didn't get a chance to work on that last night, but I definitely will later today. :)

Sure, you got time to peruse the forums but the contest page still says "no submissions yet." ;)

Got my fourth pic ready, just have to transfer it. And I re-did my third pic, I'm quite proud of this one. :D

I'm only looking at a few threads here and there, like 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. :)

No rush, but I *am* looking forward to seeing the other entries. I've mentally planned out my fifth and final entry but it will take a little while to set up. 8)

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.)

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. 8) You'll see 'em all soon enough. :D

since you're not allowed to doctor photos, i can only assume you flushed your tv.

this would work well in the crack creme thread.
