September 10th, 2006 IMPORTANT!!!! With the end of the contest coming, I want to be sure certain things are clear. If you are working on an entry, and you have finished it, you must submit it by the 6th. If you're entry is not done or you want to work on it some more, submit a Work-In-Progress (WIP) this can be a screenshot, or the image itself just with a note that it's a WIP. Any WIP's have to be in by the 6th, and they will get an extra 6 days, until October 12th to work on their entries. All completed WIPs must be in by the 12th. If you're still confused don't hesitate to PM me. I would HATE for anyone to miss out on getting in an entry 3nodding
August 30th, 2006 We're up to 38 entries! Also, Joey has a tattoo! It's decided it's on the base of her spine. (Any entries that were entered before she decided to get the tattoo won't be disqualified or looked at differently.)
