I had totally decided to pass on this one, but couldn't resist. Hope you all get a good laugh from it, or at least a chuckle. Anybody else goofy with their image of hair? I hope it will be one of the funniest challenges of fun stuff we have had for awhile.

I entered landscape and wanted to enter Hair too, but said I cant....why?

There would be too many entries, I think, and because it is a choice of one for the basic challenge (though this one was using expert editing) you can only do one.

I had fun making the picture and, what's more important, I learned a lot from the technical difficulties that I had... the picture didn't turn out as I wanted, but next time I can do better!

I don't have any hair (on my head anyway) but I sure had fun and cannot wait to see how I go!

You can only enter one exclusive open challenge so you have to choose one or the other!

edit to add the same rule applies for memeber challenges

Not true, so far we don't have exclusive (i.e. one or the other) member challenges, however, the open challenge exclusive rule DOES also apply to members.

I had fun making mine, but I have fun anytime I pick up the camera. :)

I'll probably end up with a lousy score. Usually happens when I like my submission too much. This one makes me giggle every time I see it :-)
 04/17/2007 11:23:06 PM · #11
I think mine's too silly to do well. But I had fun :)
 04/17/2007 11:24:07 PM · #12
I like mine, just because it's something I've wanted to try for awhile. I had the concept before the challenge was ever announced and the planets, moon, and stars all aligned to make it possible. It's probably going to tank, and I'm okay with that so long as I get some light-hearted comments :-)

Sorry my mistake! One of the advantages of being a member :)

I just had a 3! Hope it won't go worse than this, I don't think my picture is that bad!
 04/18/2007 12:24:33 AM · #20
Ooops, sorry, I'm new here and that was my first post.... My bad!

I had heaps of fun creating my entry, and it made me chuckle every time I saw it for the next day. I was dead sure it was my best entry so far by a long way - not ribbon material, but not far off.

Apparently most people disagree. It's completely bombing out in the scores, and now I get depressed when I see my shot. It's always hard to accept that everyone else thinks it's rubbish, when I thought it was soo good. If only I wasn't hung up on what everyone else thinks, this would be much more fun.

I'll pat meself on the back and try again with another challenge.

Ah, I had often wondered what "Exlusive" meant. Now I know. :)

Welcome to the rough and tumble world of DPC, kid. ;)

This one, since my scores are in the s-----r lately, didn't matter if I maintain the crappy ratings or not. I expect it to be bad, but that is why I had fun with it. I smile every time I think of other possbilities with my shot, so if it has a terrible showing, so what? I hope I can do more "fun" shots like this one. It will make the pain of bad scores a little easier.
