Barring begging and forced coercion/extortion, I don't really think there's a wrong way to do it, so don't stress about it :P

Ok guys, send me your pics of your models and I will post them at the new thread.

viewtopic.php?f=36&t=148977

I am going out of town for the weekend, not sure if there is internet where I am going or not but will try to access BT while I am gone. I will be gone till Monday so if pics don't shoe up before then, it's because im gone.

If you want, you can use the image I already posted unless you want me to retake the photo; I don't mind either way.

Well, could you take it again with your username? Because that is what we are going to have everybody else do. Thanks!

Didn't we just decide we WEREN'T going to identify the model with the username, for fear of people voting for someone they liked, instead of work they liked? I guess it's probably too late now, but I could have sworn we just talked about this.

I had already posted my pic before 'we' decided that rule; my apologies.

If it bothers you that much, I can change models; I don't mind.

So do you want me to take down the pics with the username's? If that's the case, send me ones without your username with the date written or something so we know it's real.

Most of them could be cropped, or have the name blurred. At this point, though, I feel the genie is out of the bottle, so I don't know if it's worth the effort.

So, I just wanted to check in on this... in the official thread, there's no start or end dates mentioned. Have we started or are we still waiting on someone to submit their before entry? Are we going for 2 weeks? I just need to know so I can budget my time. If no dates have been set yet, can I suggest an end date of Monday the 17th? That gives everyone at least 2 weekends, and then people can vote during that week so winners can be announced the following weekend.

The starting dates are,

October 9th through October 23rd.

Ya, sorry about blowing that. :/ It doesn't look like M&M will be joining anyways so it's not to big of a deal. : )

Also, BITZJUNKIE will be supplying prizes for first, second, and third! He is debating between terrain sets, and gift packages. (Not sure what would be in the packages) We are still working out the specifics. Would you guys like one over the other? Or does it matter?

About the starting dates, I think we have all the entries. So we are going to have a total of 5 contestants. We could start as early as you guys wanted now. We could go from the 5th to the 16nth and have voting over the next week if that would work better for you guys. Just let me know. I am going out of town through the 28-31st of October. So anytime before that works with me.
