Re: Send in Oct entries!!!
Myaj, how dare you? 
"I will give you a talisman. Whenever you are in doubt, or when the self becomes too much with you, apply the following test. Recall the face of the poorest and the weakest man whom you may have seen, and ask yourself, if the step you contemplate is going to be of any use to him or her. Will she gain anything by it? Will it restore her to a control over her own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to freedom for the hungry and spiritually starving millions? Then you will find your doubts and your self melt away."

Re: Send in Oct entries!!!

One of them has weird blue marking =P
Edit://
Actually,they all have blue spots... This means they're C. Imitator, right?

Can't send yet- some error pops up when I try to import my pictures

Re: Send in Oct entries!!!
That image editor thing is really annoying me. I can't figure it out- I change it to what I want- then it changes by itself, not to mention the fact that I have no clue how to save the photo afterward. Help?
Thanks
Edit:// Oh, it's also making my pictures go blurry(ish).

Re: Send in Oct entries!!!
If you have a regular PC try just editing with the basic paint program. you can crop and resize as you like, then upload the pic. That's the simplest way to do it. Comps with Linux should have a similar paint program. I dunno about Macs, cause I gave up on those back in 95...

Re: Send in Oct entries!!!
I vote we skip November and not give her anything to worry about till next month. And with all this time, surely we'll have more than enough entries that she won't have to pull teeth.
I need to get a better camera so that I can get actual pictures instead of big green smears...

Re: Send in Oct entries!!!
I got the nice camera from home! Now I can submit something. Not anything stunning, but something to fill a space, anyway.

Re: Send in Oct entries!!!
Sorry all, I was sick for about 3 weeks and working extra shifts (and extra long shifts) at work. Tis the season *sigh*.
We actually don't have that many entries sitting here waiting to go.. I think I counted 13. Yes, that is only 13 entries sent in since October.
So we kind of have to make a quick decision here.. put all 13 into one final "combo month" competition, then get on to the POTY, or do one final Dec competition of the first 10 entries sent in and carry over the other 3 to January to start off next year? The admin team is discussing it, but feel free to voice your opinions here
(and technically, I haven't double checked all of the entires to make sure they are valid, many were new names.. they may not have enough posts).

Re: Send in Oct entries!!!
Hey Myaj what are the valid user entries you have currently??
IMO I would just enter all of the valid pics! So there won't be a snowball effect in the following months!
