Hi Dennis,
I'm a forfeit - couldn't get my entry in.
I don't know what's the problem, but the upload page couldn't load my file - though I could upload it in the FS, for example. Anyway, it was too late to complain with SC, or anyone else for that matter, and missed the cutoff time.
This sucks... that's frustrating...
Good luck all,
George


Bummer, did you check the year...it was set at the default of 2010? - on another thread a few people were experiencing the default problem once they set it to 2009 no problems.

The year was fine... I tried everything I could think of... and I don't get it!

I do not stand a chance in animals/nature/landscape. With all the beautiful landscapes around one of them has got to ribbon. Even if it were just animals I still wouldnt stand a chance but I'd be further up the list.

So how is everyone in the LNA (Landscape/Nature/Animals)crowd doing?

They don't even like me enough to give me a 6, snif.... Close, but still disheartening. I have kept this picture under wraps ever since I took it, waiting for this challenge, didn't even enter it in best-of-the-month in anticipation of this challenge, and... snif... wailllll.... snif...

I'm just barely holding onto a 5. Literally, it's at 5.0000. LOL! Maybe the jurors will like it better than the general voting audience. I kind of feel like Robert and want to just run away and sob.

Wait - you have a 59 (5.9+)? Wouldn't that be a good fine vintage age for a fine wine;-) or mayhap a cognac? Geez, I am too free thinking today with allusions though some may say I had an illusion of a fabulously good score with my entry:-)

Ugh. I was expecting to be in the '60s, stuck back in '55 for most of the challenge, and now down to '53. I'm over there cryin' on the sidelines with the Bear.

On my monitor @ home, it is stunning. On the monitor at work, it's lousy in comparison. I thought my work monitor was off, but from the comments, others are seeing the less attractive rendition.

If there could be one wish of mine, it is that I wish ALL monitors were calibrated the same. I have run into the same situation in a few challenges with regards to looking great on one monitor to looking less than great on another because how the person has it set and such.

Please put my name in Landscape category. Sorry, it looks like I may have missed the deadline.

Can I still play in the Landscape Category?

How are all you portrait peeps doing? There are some good portraits in this challenge. I've ranked 9 of them with an 8 or higher. I did give myself a 10 though. :P
01/27/2010 10:05:10 PM · #190
Mark, you portrait folks really out did yourselves...I found 13 9s, 10 10s and a couple of favs!
01/27/2010 10:23:17 PM · #191
That's for you Mark, thanks for asking :)

I can feel the simplify preset weighing heavy on the previosly applied spicefy preset!

;) great score by the way. Still have no idea which is your image!

I missed the deadline, but that may be a good thing. I'm not sure I want my entry to get beaten by voters and by a jury!

Just kidding. Actually, if the jury were made up of my commenters, I'd be doing pretty good.
