[Minderella]

Ya'll should take tips from me.

I did it right the FIRST time.

What if you take a picture of a picture that's of a landscape? Technically the picture is 1 item :giggle

 

[Siphorous]

Ah shucks, I have to decide on mine from a few and quickly too!

Just a reminder that

I will be accepting entries via pm until this Friday June 29, 2012 at 9 pm PT time North America.

I should get extra points for having had mine done two weeks ago.

I had one I was going to use (first choice) and then realised Francis would reject it due to the rules after seeing the way they've been applied - so had to think again. I wouldn't be surprised to see my next one rejected too but I have plenty of backups

 

[Francis]

People are getting frustrated at me for applying the rules as stated in the OP..

At this point, if people are upset with the choices, I am no longer going to respond as I am fed up of people criticizing the process of a challenge instead of seeing this as a chance to try to improve their abilities to take pictures.. I tried to give everyone who failed a as detailed an answer on why and asked them not to give up.. I have to meet the same conditions and I was the first to submit a picture to Siph ( for fairness ) and meet these tough conditions which I will submit my entry as is..

Siph, please makes sure you tell everyone how much they should send you in Tokenz as I know I own you mine..

Thanks Francis

The fee is 2500 tokenz per entry. Successful entry that is - you don't have to keep sending me 2500 for each try of course. That would be rather silly (but extra donations will all go to the prize fund).

Francis, please don't take my PMs last night as frustrations towards you. You are simply doing what you've been tasked to do and, trust me, I understand. I'm not very good w/ change and having to stray from the norm has been severely frustrating for me. I apologize if I took it out on you. Thanks for all your hard work...I know this hasn't been an easy round to host, LOL

Also, I sent my tokenz to Siph.

It's OK Tasha, I did not take it personally, just feeling frustrated.

When I feel people coming at me as if I am the one who is the problem I have issues with this.. I am not trying to be difficult and when i go out of my way to try and help people by explaining the problem with the picture, you would think people would step back and look at it and understand how to correct or find a new way to shoot the next shot within context.

No I am not perfect and all of us learn something new everyday.. Isn't that the point of doing these things..
