Please vote! There's no criteria to your choice - it's called "People's Choice" simply because you vote on what you like best for whatever reason. Just note that the black "no copying" bars on every photo were put on by me (Morgen) and that they should be ignored in your choice - I tried to make them as discrete as possible but I just wanted to point that out, in case you are focused on composition -> those are my fault! (necessary evil). In a few cases I needed to cover up a copyright too. That's it! Go vote now! :D

& Thanks so much to everyone who entered and good luck to everyone!!

Final Round coming to Blab later today!

Please read my whole post/reasonings over here: http://kilbourn-contest1.blogspot.com/2008/10/final-round-coming-to-blab-shortly.html

This is how the scene contest finalists (top 60%) sorted out:

Entry 1
48 (22%)
Entry 7
44 (20%)
Entry 8
44 (20%)
Entry 2
28 (13%)
Entry 11
15 (7%)
Entry 10
10 (4%)
Entry 6
9 (4%)







(I went with 60% b/c it allowed one more entry and it was at the cusp with 11 entries of being 7 at 59%... and it's just HARD to leave anyone out on such a tiny margin dangit! lol!) ;)

Congrats to everyone who entered again - I really REALLY loved seeing these entries!!! I'll be posting the full sized photos late tonight & starting up those polls. ... uh... probably in the "Games & Silliness" forum which is viewable to the public and votable (I suuuure hope b/c Blab rules make it sound so!) by ordinary unpaid registered members. Good luck to the finalists in round 2!!
