9. every month there is a contest submission thread in the photography group

basically you post a link to your photo with a size restriction as listed in the submission thread. for example using flickr you can post a link to the properly sized photo. other online gallerys have similar methods.


if you go to the photography group we're a bunch of really friendly people who can help you out any way we can
the winner of the contest gets to choose the theme for the next month contest and hosts the contest

When I would get my box of 64, I would just stare and stare at them in awe and anticipation. Afraid to use them--to ruin their beauty. I broke a point off one of the orange ones and scotched taped it back on. Didn't work out so well--always had to have a separate, large metal tin to keep the broken and used and peeled was in--then I could get down to some serious coloring. LOL

Love the arrangement of the blues getting closer and closer.
