Things to Note...

Be sure to read these before entering. :)


<img:stuff/10daysblt.jpg> First and foremost - You may only enter your own photography, though that rule *almost* goes without saying.

<img:stuff/10daysblt.jpg> One entry per day, per person. If you are unable to upload every day, we understand that this is not reality and real life comes first, but please have your photos uploaded by the specified time after each round. Usually two days are given after the ten days so those that need to catch up may before judging commences. New rounds either begin after winners are announced or when there are a sufficient number of participants to compete. (This number left up to the host per circumstances that appeal to each round.)
ALSO - The idea of this competition is to challenge yourself and physically go out and take a picture every day. -However- I cannot stop you from submitting an older photo if you choose. :)

<img:stuff/10daysblt.jpg> No manipulation At this point in time, I am also excluding you from putting borders around your images >_< *Nazi pixie* Simply because sometimes putting a border on a picture can really add something, and not all entrants will do that. NOTE: Black & White photos are now allowed, however no other photo manipulations are allowed.

<img:stuff/10daysblt.jpg> A new rule! Be sure to notice that from now on every contestant should add the date the photo has been taken in their own photowiki. That rule is to encourage to take the photo after the theme is posted instead of posting an old photo. In general we only allow new pictures, but if you have no ideas or time for taking the new photo and you have a perfect old one for the theme, you can have one or two old photos out of ten. If you add an old photo, you should post the real date, and we will allow it, but we will consider the date when voting for the winners.

<img:stuff/10daysblt.jpg> There is now no size limit...Just please keep them at a reasonable size for viewing >_< (One of the judges was grumbling about not being able to appreciate the pictures in their full size xD)

<img:stuff/10daysblt.jpg> The theme *must* be followed, but you may allow yourself to be as creative and as sneaky with that as you like :D For example: The theme might be 'orange'. You could take photos of something orange, or an orange...but not a duck sitting on the water! :D Unless it was an orange duck...

<img:stuff/10daysblt.jpg> It was such a huge job for me to do everyone's separate wikis the first time - so, can you put your pictures into your personal '10 Days' wiki (when it is made) when you change your photos over please ^_^

<img:stuff/10daysblt.jpg> Yes, you are allowed to participate multiple times ;p

I think that is all the rules for now :)

<img:stuff/10daysdiv.jpg>


To enter this competition, you will have to be dedicated, to be able to submit an entry every day for 10 days, and check the theme every day too. :p

2007-08-22 [Simply_Jen]: I would really appreciate that elmiira. Even if you did just one or two so I could see how it needs to be done, that would be so great. I'm really looking forward to this and seeing what people come up with.

2007-08-23 [Elmiira]: There you go Jen :) I made all the participant pages ready now.. And if you need help anywhere, just ask. :D and that was really no problem, because, once you made one, it's easy to make the rest, just copypaste it all :D

2007-08-24 [Simply_Jen]: Thank you so much.

2007-08-26 [Simply_Jen]: The first theme of round nine is up. Hope everyone has fun with it.

2007-08-27 [Simply_Jen]: Day two theme is up.

2007-08-28 [Simply_Jen]: Day three theme is up now.

2007-09-12 [Simply_Jen]: Round nine winners are up.

2007-09-12 [nekorin]: Duh I suck...

2007-09-12 [Linderel]: That's the wrong attitude. You don't suck, they just were better. :P

2007-09-12 [pixish]: Plus, looking at the other entries gives you ideas on how to improve :)

2007-09-12 [Elmiira]: damn I lost. :D hehe, well, concrats papillon.. :)

2007-09-12 [blu.nation]: o: no way! i was sure you'd win 'Holy', Elmiira. Yours was so beautiful ^_^

2007-09-12 [Simply_Jen]: There were a lot of good ones. No one sucked, but there had to be a winner.
It was so hard!

2007-11-26 [Little Insane Cat]: so do we sign our name under: contestants for this round? or for future rounds at the bottom of the page?

2007-11-30 [Elmiira]: thats up to you. :) But I wish someone would add themselves for this round. otherwise it will never start. I miss watching this competition. :)

2007-11-30 [Linderel]: If there are no other volunteers, I could host again - I can't participate in this round anyway.

2007-12-29 [BlackDragon]: Wrote myself up, why not.. I'd just like a message when its about to start, didn't really notice last time that it had =/

2008-01-30 [BinaryPhoenix]: I would love to participate, but I cannot remember if I was in the previous round or not...

2008-01-30 [Linderel]: You were.

2008-01-30 [BinaryPhoenix]: Okay, thanks!! ^__^ I'll just wait around for round 11...

2008-02-22 [Elmiira]: I'd say that if it takes this long to find new contestants, you could take the last rounds people participate too.. I don't mean I would have to participate myself, but I just want it to start to see this competition going! :D I could also be hosting this round, unless it starts during an unconvenient time for me. :)

2008-02-22 [Linderel]: I'll have to think about it, I'm slowly beginning to have my hands full xD It'd be nice to hand this over to someone who'd be able and willing to take care of hosting consistently. I can't say I've been active at all these past couple of months regarding this particular contest.

2008-02-23 [Elmiira]: wellwell.. :D I would like to try it once at least. but there has to be contestants first :D

2008-08-28 [Elmiira]: oops.. had to take me away from the contestants, as I was in the last round..

2008-08-29 [BlackDragon]: Sorry, had to remove myself (too) as I have no camera. Its broken.. =/

2009-01-12 [Linderel]: Holy shite, we have a full list? o_O
Alright, then, is everyone still up for it?

2009-01-12 [Jitter]: I am :D

2009-01-12 [Skydancer]: I believe I have the time to manage a round. :)

2009-01-12 [Elmiira]: wow.. this will be interesting. :) I advice that whoever will host this round should send a message to every contestant reminding them of the contest.. as some have been there for a long time and can have forgotten about it..

2009-01-12 [Linderel]: And I just checked some of them, at least [Simply_Jen] hasn't been around for over a month.

2009-01-13 [Able Insane]: I am, I just need a reminder for when it's starting.
Right now I'm in school too, so I might be a little behind, or use photographs from school and this contest.
:)

2009-01-13 [Venus 53]: well since i only just added my name needless to say i'm all good. currently in the process of moving but should be able to get on to upload photos =)

2009-01-13 [Able Insane]: Should we erase [Simply_Jen]'s entry and upgrade [Fetish Dolly Koneko™] to her position?

2009-01-13 [Linderel]: Assuming she wants that. :P

2009-01-13 [Elmiira]: I could participate too, if you allow me to take part in two rounds in a row.. :D

2009-01-13 [Able Insane]: Yes, of course.
:)

2009-01-14 [MisLuck]: Did I miss the round already? :(

2009-01-14 [Jitter]: I don't believe so!

2009-01-14 [Elmiira]: I officially announce, that I will accept the place of anyone whose on the list but won't participate.. if you let me. :D are you going to host this round [Skydancer]?

2009-01-14 [Linderel]: Erm, he's on the contestant list :P

2009-01-14 [Skydancer]: Me? Host? I thought this thing was being run by Lin? Besides, I am truly maddening when it comes to thinking up themes... evil even. :D

2009-01-14 [Linderel]: I've some sadistic tendencies in that department myself...

2009-01-14 [Skydancer]: Hmmm reading back.... I suppose I could maybe perhaps... host it eh.... my own contest is not doing too well though.. Art of the Natural Nude Contest

2009-01-14 [Linderel]: Well, at the beginning of last year I was having entrance exam stress, but now I think I could handle it. :3

2009-01-14 [Skydancer]: Its all yours then Lin, be my guest. I do have rather a lot going on. Presents to get done, cards, puzzles and products to finish and get on line, a website to get built, and a book to finish the bones of.

2009-01-14 [Linderel]: You's a busy bee!

2009-01-14 [Skydancer]: You don't know the half of it. :) But thanks to muses and collaborators such as yourself, I am able to do far more than otherwise.

2009-01-14 [Faery]: [Elmiira], if you want, you can take my spot, I'm going away in 3 days for a week, so I would miss part of it anyways.

2009-01-15 [Elmiira]: well if you are sure.. :) but if it doesn't start by then, I wouldn't want you to miss it. but didn't they say some haven't been online for a long time.. I have to check it.. [Simply_Jen] hasn't been online for 52 days now. and [Little Insane Cat] was last seen like over 200 days ago..

2009-01-15 [Linderel]: We probably better take them off the list :P

2009-01-17 [Elmiira]: maybe.. but I just realised that my camera is broken.. or the flash is. :S I cannot take any good photos.. :S so I probably can't participate after all..

2009-01-18 [Linderel]: Oy vey <_< Though I'd like to disagree - you can take good photos even without the flash :P It's just that it will be harder.

2009-01-18 [Able Insane]: Pshhh.
You don not need the flash, just use a tripod for anything under 1/60th!
Geez!
:P

2009-01-19 [Lothuriel]: When will the next round begin. I am somewhat confused.

2009-01-19 [Linderel]: You're not the only one, but it probably won't be starting for another few days yet.

2009-01-19 [Jitter]: I'll be away next weekend so I hope it won't x)

2009-01-19 [Lothuriel]: Oh, ok then. Thanks for letting me know ^___^

2009-01-20 [Elmiira]: I know you can take photos without flash, but it's too hard.. and it's the time of the year here when there isn't even any light outside most of the time. :D so..

2009-01-20 [Able Insane]: True, but you just have to know when you are able to find enough light... or bring a tripod, or outsmart your light meter, by choosing to shoot underexposed to make it look like night/late afternoon/etc.
I am a firm believer in no flat lighting, or single front flash lighting, so I always find ways around using the pop-up flash on my camera... Unless I'm using it as fill flash, then it's okay.

P.S. I really would like to know a couple days ahead of time when the competition will start because I am a very busy lady, so I need to plan ahead.
:P
Thanks.

2009-01-22 [Jitter]: I will be here in the weekend after all <<

2009-01-22 [Skydancer]: Nifty Jitter Shroom you did of Lin [Jitter] :)

2009-01-22 [MisLuck]: could you tell us at least 2 or 3 day before (if possible even more) the competition starts that it's gonna start so we wouldn't miss it just because we didn't know when it starts. i can't be here every day either, so the competition needs scheduling.
Thanks ^^

2009-01-22 [Linderel]: Will do. Sometime next week at the earliest, I think.

2009-01-23 [Jitter]: Thanks [Skydancer]

2009-02-05 [Elmiira]: quite mysteriously and out of the blue my camera started working again. so I'm bag and running again. I'll take part if you accept me. and I hope this could start soon. :P

2009-02-05 [Linderel]: I'll update the list tonight, or at least try to.

2009-02-06 [Able Insane]: Can we start with in this next week?
I'm ahead on my classwork right now, and need some 'self-directed' pieces... but have no ideas.
I'd really like to get this show one the road anyway.
:)

2009-02-06 [Xuan.]: patience able patience. lol. but yeah, i can't wait until it's my turn, even though i'll probably need help setting up my wiki, i'll have the pictures though, fer surre.

2009-02-13 [Elmiira]: *can't wait*

2009-02-13 [Linderel]: *shoots self* This keeps slipping from my mind. >_< Ah well, tomorrow is a day I'm trying to get things done, let's hope we finally get somewhere with this soon.

2009-02-13 [Skydancer]: Is having a most marvelous chocolate banana pudding with vanilla wafers. Yum..... :D

2009-02-13 [Linderel]: Ooo, sounds tasty. :)

2009-02-13 [Skydancer]: it is, the lady down a few doors gave me a bag of ripe banana last night so I made chocolate pudding and put them in the fridge last night. Now they are nice and blended and lovely.

2009-03-19 [Venus 53]: Ok, so... is anything happening here??

2009-03-19 [Linderel]: *cough* No. Sorry. Not quite yet. I'll try to get to it this weekend.
Alternately, someone else could just take over running this thing...

2009-04-01 [Cillamoon]: Reminder to self...check back to see when Round 10 starts and ends.

2009-04-08 [Elmiira]: I think I could host this competition, if someone would give me a little help, if I need it.. Like if it seems that I'm not going to get online at all on some day, I would inform about it in advance, and that person could then put up a theme for that day.. And also a little help with informing every contestant that the contest is about to begin. I think it doesn't matter if there is not 10 contestants, and I also do think that anyone could join, those who were on the last round as well. How does this sound?

2009-04-08 [Cillamoon]: I would love to help out as I'm online all the time!

2009-04-08 [Elmiira]: so why aren't you on the participants list? :P But I'd appreciate your help very much, if people just accept me as the host. :P

2009-04-08 [Cillamoon]: My name is on the list for the next round....Hey you got my vote as the host! There are a few other contests that I want to revive as well!

2009-04-09 [Linderel]: [Elmiira], please, do go ahead! I'm not likely to get this round going any time this century. xD

2009-04-09 [Elmiira]: hehe.. :D Okay, I'll do it. :) Cillamoon, you should attend this one, if you just want to.. Then you can't put any themes on though.. but you could help with some other stuff anyway. :P

2009-04-09 [Cillamoon]: I would like to enter the next round, so I won't be able to help with themes. But I would love to help with any other stuff you need done. This is so exciting!!!! :D!!!

2009-04-09 [Elmiira]: yeah, go ahead, just add yourself to the list :) I'll ask you for help with other stuff then. :) For example, you could help doing those partisipant pages for everyone, if you can do it.. I would then inform every contestant that this is about to start. it seems like we're only having about 7 contestants, so I want them everyone to notice this.

2009-04-09 [Cillamoon]: no problem, I will work on that in a few minutes then and get all the participant pages made. How do you get only 7 contestants though? I thought I saw more than that on the list above.....am I wrong?

2009-04-09 [Elmiira]: yeah but three of them has not been on in elftown for over 50 days, some over 300..

2009-04-09 [Cillamoon]: OMG....okay got it. So I shall just create pages for the more recently active ones then?

2009-04-09 [Elmiira]: yeah.. :) I'm going to send them all messages now.. I put there that this would start after easter, on tuesday, if it's fine for everyone.

2009-04-09 [Cillamoon]: Works for me, making pages now.

2009-04-09 [Cillamoon]: Quick question though, am I using the set of participants listed first on this page? Or the second set listed last on this page?

2009-04-09 [Elmiira]: the first one. :) and just use the pages of last rounds as a model. I can do some pages as well. :)

2009-04-09 [Cillamoon]: Great, thank you!

2009-04-09 [Elmiira]: I made one there already. you can just copypaste that. :)

2009-04-09 [Cillamoon]: Awesomeness! Thanks Elmiira. I'm getting ready to go work passover this evening, so I will have all day to get it finished. Should only take me a hour to get it up and ready to go. I'll keep you posted. :)

2009-04-09 [Lothuriel]: AWesome!! Thanks Elmiira!!!

2009-04-10 [Solitary Comfort]: Woop! Looks like this thing is getting a kick of life, count me in (again)!! *signs up*

2009-04-10 [Skydancer]: Ah, about ready to begin then, brilliant. :D

2009-04-10 [Elmiira]: Yay, nice that you join [Solitary Comfort] :)

I'm afraid that I cannot get online everyday at exactly the same time to change the day's topic, but I'll try to do it so, that it doesn't change more than to hours, so for example from 4-6 in Elftown time..

2009-04-10 [Cillamoon]: Well I can definetly be online at the same time every day [Elmiira] if you would like me to upload themes for each day....although I probably couldn't do it this first round.

2009-04-10 [Elmiira]: oh, and [Faery] just wrote to me to tell that she cannot take part, as she has a cast on her angle.. :(

2009-04-10 [MisLuck]: I will take part. I think I have returned home before tuesday so I could at least fetch my card slots :)

2009-04-11 [Cillamoon]: Okay, so [Faery] is out.... [Elmiira], do we have a replacement that I should create a page for?

2009-04-11 [Elmiira]: No I don't think so.. Though if there is someone watching this page who'd like to participate, please say it now. :P But I think seven is fine, there has always been some people that haven't participated in every round.. :) I just hope every one of those seven will take part :)

2009-04-11 [Elmiira]: we haven't heard of two of them yet, though.. Hopefully they are able to take part.. I just don't want to put this later anymore, because if we wait for people, then the first ones always drop out..

2009-04-11 [Cillamoon]: Agreed, just let me know what your final decision is on it. :)

2009-04-12 [Able Insane]: 14th, eh?
Okay, but no guarantees I can get everything done.

2009-04-12 [Elmiira]: I think we are going to do this on 14th, if no one has anything against it. :) I hope the themes I choose are good ones, and everyone has fun. The idea was before that everyone has to upload their photo during the same day, but I think it's easier for everyone and more fun, if I just put the deadline three days after the last day, and you just have to upload your pictures before that. Is that okay with everyone?

2009-04-12 [Elmiira]: And [Able Insane], I hope that stretching the deadline helps you. :)

2009-04-12 [MisLuck]: I still hope that people will take that one photo per day if they can. After all, that's the idea behind this. It challenges you more.

2009-04-12 [Solitary Comfort]: Hmmm. I can see where you are coming from, and I'm not disagreeing, but doesn't that defy the point a little? 10 Photos, 1 per day. The way I personally saw it is what can you come up within one day.. But I'm game if everyone else is :)

2009-04-12 [Elmiira]: yeah I know and that's how it's supposed to be, but the other rounds have gone around this a bit too.. But tell your opinion, we'll do like most people want to do. and of course I hope too that peopple would go with that one photo per day.. But I was just saying that it might be nices, if you were allowed to upload it later if you don't have time to come online every day..

2009-04-13 [Elmiira]: I will start this contest tomorrow on 4pm elftown time by putting the first theme on the entries page. :) Be ready!

2009-04-13 [Cillamoon]: YAY!!!!

2009-04-13 [Solitary Comfort]: Whooop whoop!

2009-04-13 [MisLuck]: *waiting* ^^ This is what we've been waiting for <3

2009-04-13 [Elmiira]: Wee, I'm waiting for this as well! :P Yay!

2009-04-13 [Cillamoon]: [Elmiira], did you make a change on the entries page? I got a notice that something was changed....but didn't notice what exactly was changed. <img:stuff/m-jpg.gif>

2009-04-13 [Elmiira]: ah I just added an entry page for solitary comfort, as I noticed there was not one yet. :)

2009-04-13 [Cillamoon]: Ah gotcha. :)

2009-04-13 [Solitary Comfort]: Thank yooou, that would have left me in quite a pickle! Let the games begin! :D

2009-04-14 [Able Insane]: Meh. It could have come during my spring break, but hell. Maybe I can use some of my school work on here... That might help a tiny bit.
Tomorrow, by the way, I am at school for 13 hours, (as is the same on Thursday) so I wont be getting any shots in unless they happen to be easy to do on school grounds.
This will also carry on to next Tuesday which will be the same thing.

2009-04-14 [Elmiira]: but I think everyone understands that you upload those pics a little bit late, [Able Insane]. :) IF you can't do it tomorrow, just do it later then.. or what do you others think?

2009-04-14 [Solitary Comfort]: I'm not trying to be a pain but "The idea of this competition is to challenge yourself and physically go out and take a picture every day."

[Able Insane] What would stop you from taking photos after school? Night time shots could work, or use your flash, or set up a mini studio and use desk lights. Remember professional studios are completely artifically lit.

If photos are taken and submitted everyday it would mean that most people will probably not see other entries until they submit theirs, which in my opinion is nicer than seeing what other people have done before you go to take your photo, it also minimizes the risk of idea stealing. And if you can't make it one or two days don't worry; the last one I entered I had to go to some random unexpected family thing for the last 4 days of the competition, where I had no internet, and still won.

Personally I'm going to try and submit one a day, as I'm still on sping break until monday, and I liked it that way from previous rounds. But that's just what I think.

2009-04-14 [Elmiira]: you are right [Solitary Comfort].. that's how it should be.. I just think this competition isn't so serious that someone couldn't break the rules.. Most important thing, after all, is getting some inspiration and having fun. But everything you said about taking the photo after school, inside, in dark, is of course right.. That's what I hope too. :)

2009-04-14 [Lothuriel]: I had trouble the first time competing because I was still using a 35mm camera...with film and whatnot.

2009-04-14 [Able Insane]: I am a student of photography, I take photographs everyday whether I am in a competition or not.
We have a professional studio and all the equipment to go with, but I just don't have the time between 8 hours of class and 5 hours of working... I get to school when they open for class and I close the photography building up. I will try to do some quick snapshot today, but I can't make any guarantees.

2009-04-14 [Lothuriel]: congratulations?

2009-04-14 [Elmiira]: first theme is up! have fun!

2009-04-14 [Cillamoon]: YAY!!!!!

2009-04-14 [Able Insane]: Thanks... I just wanted to be clear to [Solitary Comfort] as to why.
:P

2009-04-14 [Solitary Comfort]: Consider it noted ;)

2009-04-14 [Lothuriel]: People must realize to never take anything I say as serious *sighs*

2009-04-17 [Venus 53]: Umm... I haven't been around for a bit and so I've just missed the first half...

2009-04-17 [Cillamoon]: You can still catch up, that's allowed right?

2009-04-17 [Elmiira]: [Venus 53], you've only missed the first two/three, that's not a catasthrophe.. :) you can still join in with the rest! and if you want to do those themes you missed too, I'm sure it's okay. :)

2009-04-18 [Venus 53]: Hm well am currently uber-busy, and my camera's broken... but I shall give it a shot, surely I could do with another challenge on my list =P

2009-04-26 [Able Insane]: Yeah, my grandpa died last week... so, I'll join in on the next one. I've been too busy anyway.

2009-04-26 [MisLuck]: I'm sorry to hear Able Insane, *hugs*.

2009-04-26 [Elmiira]: oh, I'm so sorry, [Able Insane]. *hug* I hope there will be another one soon, so you can participate too. :) And everyone else as well.

2009-04-26 [Able Insane]: Thanks.

2009-04-29 [Elmiira]: Now I will officially close this contest! I wont include any photos added after this to the voting. Thanks for sticking through the contest everyone! I will get a few of my friends to vote for the winners of the themes and will announce the winner on sunday or monday. :)

2009-04-29 [Lothuriel]: Awesome! Thanks for being so patient with us!

2009-05-04 [Lothuriel]: Congratualtions Everyone, especially [MisLuck], you rock girl!! ^____^

So, since we participated in this round we have to sit out the next right? Is that how this works?

2009-05-04 [MisLuck]: Oh my :O Wow! Thank you!
And congratulations everyone. =) Lothuriel, I remember it would be like so also, as there is so many wanting to participate. =)

2009-05-04 [Elmiira]: That's how it should be but I don't think anyone would mind if we all just are allowed to participate the next round again :P I'd rather have this competision often with the same people than with new people once in every two years..

This round was very hard to vote for.. I had five friends and me voting for the winner and everyone had one vote per day. in many themes the votes did go for many people, but I just picked the one who got the most votes to win the day, even if that photo had only one more vote than some other.. Also the days very won pretty evenly, so you were all winners in a way. :) But misluck just won three as the other three won two or one.. so you win this round righteously, Misluck!! :D Concratulations :)

2009-05-04 [Cillamoon]: Awesome! Hey, I know I would love to participate again, or Elmiira, if you want to swap and participate this time while I take your place, whichever you would like to do. It was a lot of fun, I enjoyed the challenge! :)

2009-05-04 [Elmiira]: Hehe, if you want to host this next round, it would be really great, I would love to participate as a contestant again. :) Hosting was nice, but it's so nice to take the challenge myself as well.. :)

2009-05-04 [Cillamoon]: Awesome, so I will go ahead and run this next one, maybe we can just switch back and forth each time. :) So I will contact all the ones who want to participate on the waiting list, create the pages for everyone who wants to, and shall we start the kick off on Wednesday?

2009-05-04 [Cillamoon]: I will wait for you to reply before I do anything.

2009-05-04 [Elmiira]: well you should wait for some participants first :) last time it took about a year to get even those contestants we had now, so take it slow.. :) there's only two people on the list now, the others are only possibly attending, and those only mean they want to participate somewhere in the future, not necessarily on this round..

2009-05-04 [Cillamoon]: Hmmm....okay :)

2009-05-05 [Lothuriel]: I would love to compete again! Just let us know when/if we can sign up again.

2009-05-05 [Cillamoon]: Yeah, if you want to do it again I have no problem with that! Elmiira, if you have any objection just let me know, otherwise Lothuriel, I will add your name to the list right away. :)

2009-05-05 [Lothuriel]: Oh, ok! *hugs* Thank you!! If [Elmiira] has objections, I totally understand but, for now *makes a happy dance*

2009-05-05 [Cillamoon]: Happy Dance! Do the Safety Dance! lol :D

2009-05-05 [sweet.tx.tea]: 'Cause your friends don't dance, and if they don't dance, then they're no friends of mine! <3

2009-05-05 [Lothuriel]: haha!

2009-05-05 [Cillamoon]: I love that song! :D How about Joy Divisions "Transmisson"? Dance dance dance to the radio! I think we'lll daaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnceeeeeee!!!!! Dance dance dance to the radio! If you haven't heard the song, I suggest you do so, it's AMAZINGLY KICK ASS!

2009-05-05 [Cillamoon]: Wheee!!! We only need one more person for Round 11!!! I'm so excited! I didn't know so many ppl would answer so quickly otherwise I would of said Tuesday! lol XD

2009-05-05 [Lothuriel]: This contest has inspired me BIG time!

2009-05-05 [Cillamoon]: That's great to hear! It has inspired me too, and I hope it further does. And you know, that can be the whole point of the contest, is to inspire yourself and others. Whatever gets the creative juices flowing so more art is created! I love it!

2009-05-05 [Daisy le Fleur]: *twitches nervously*

2009-05-05 [Cillamoon]: Don't be nervous Daisy, everyone is laid back here. No pressure whatsoever. :)

2009-05-05 [Captain Rachel Black]: Thanks for the link! *waves at Daisy* hello hun ^_^

2009-05-05 [Cillamoon]: Yeah sorry about the link thing, I did have it in the message so that it was clickable....I guess it didn't stick. Sorry about that! *smiles sheepishly*

2009-05-05 [Daisy le Fleur]: ello ello capn!

2009-05-05 [Captain Rachel Black]: Is'all good XD
ello love ;)

2009-05-05 [moira hawthorne]: ok ill do my best... sound like fun

2009-05-05 [moira hawthorne]: you may wish to take [~Lady Morgana~]'s name off the list... as awesome a photogragher she is... she has also been missing from ET for 198 days ago. (Logged out)

2009-05-05 [Cillamoon]: Yes, I am editing the inactive members out now. :)

2009-05-05 [Shjahjdahdvwa]: Damn, I got here too late... -_-;

2009-05-05 [Cillamoon]: No worries! I can put you down for the next round if you like ^_^

2009-05-05 [Elmiira]: why would my opinion matter more than anyone else's? :) And I don't mind at all if Lothuriel wants to join.. :) But if there is such a great number of people joining the next round as well, then we should stick with the old rule (participating only on every other round) again.. :) Great job by the way Cillamoon! This page is more active than I think it ever has been! New ten contestants in just a few days! Wheeeee :D Cool, you're the best. :) ANd so nice, that there's so many participating, we're going to have fun, I think. :P

2009-05-05 [Cillamoon]: Wellllll.........in regards to reinstating the every other round rule, I'm up for whatever the consensus decides on. I know that I you and I are adhereing to that rule Elmiira, but I'm not sure how you feel Lothuriel. Whatever the consensus wants is fine with me. And thanks!!! ^_^ I really wanted to get more ppl active with this contest since it is SO MUCH FUN! And I wanted to get members who were actually active on here, so it worked out wonderfully! We've got some great contestants for this round and already for the next round lined up, all truly gifted I think with the camera. So it's going to be GREAT! I'm just cleaning things up a bit with the pages, picking themes right now, and we'll be ready to start bright and early tomorrow morning. YAY!!!!

2009-05-05 [Elmiira]: Well as Lothuriel is on the list already, she definately can join this round, if it's up to me to decide. :D

What time exactly are you foing to start this tomorrow? :)

2009-05-05 [Cillamoon]: As soon as I get to work I will upload the first theme, so that's 7am Pacific Time. And yes, thank you for making the deciding factor :)

2009-05-05 [Elmiira]: Could you tell that in elftown time? :) It's just easier for everyone to follow that and then calculate their own time based on that.. At least I have no idea what's the pasific time exactly. :P

2009-05-05 [Cillamoon]: Uhhhh...err.....how the hell do I do that? lol

2009-05-05 [moira hawthorne]: very top of the right side banner is the ET time...

2009-05-05 [Elmiira]: ET time is the same as GMT.. your time is gmt -7, so ET time your 7am should be 14 pm, unless you have the daylight saving time going.. :) But you can see the current elftown time on up there, just like moira said.

2009-05-05 [Cillamoon]: Ummmm.....okay. I will figure it out. Either way it will be really early on tomorrow morning.

2009-05-05 [Linderel]: For reference, see UTC.
Also, [Elmiira], there is no such thing as 14 pm xD That'd be 2 pm. The am - pm thing only has twelve hours, as opposed to twenty-four. Midnight is 12 am, noon is 12 pm. It's all very confusing and silly, really. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/12-hour_clock

2009-05-05 [Cillamoon]: Lol, thanks Linderel for the clarification, I am now no longer confused. XD

2009-05-05 [Cillamoon]: So if I understand everything correctly, the first theme will be posted at 7am on Wednesday (tomorrow)

2009-05-06 [Elmiira]: I know it Linderel :D I'm not that stupid :P I just mixed it all up, I wrote so fast... :P

2009-05-06 [Elmiira]: So 7am in your time or in elftown time?

2009-05-06 [Lothuriel]: I have no objection to sitting this round out if there is someone on the waiting list that wants to take my place. ^__^

2009-05-06 [Linderel]: Elmiira, I didn't mean to say that you're stupid or anything. Really. Sorry if I offended. <_<

2009-05-06 [Elmiira]: Nono, I didn't feel offended in anyway.. Joking. :) I don't use happy smiles if I'm angry :D

2009-05-19 [Cillamoon]: Elmiira, are you going to be able to do theme's this time so I can participate? Or would you like for me to take care of them again, if so no worries, I can always participate in the next round. I just wasn't sure how your schedule was going to work out for the next week or so. Whatcha think?

2009-05-19 [Elmiira]: I don't think I'm going to do it just now.. You know I never thought it's going to be this active. when I said I could do every other I was thinking it will happen about twice a year or so.. :D I think hosting this contest or even participating is quite a lot of work, and I have a lot of other things going on as well..

2009-05-19 [Cillamoon]: No worries, I will continue to keep it running then, let me know when you want to host it for a round, and I will participate at that time but will keep it going until then. ^_^

2009-05-19 [sweet.tx.tea]: If we want to do round 12, do we put our name on the list or get approval.

2009-05-19 [Cillamoon]: Well the usual rule is that you are not allowed to participate two rounds in a row, in order to give other's a chance to join in, but seeing as how I am missing ppl for this round, and I'm not sure how many more I will get....are you going to be active for this one?

2009-05-19 [moira hawthorne]: maybe waiting till hedda get ET stable would be a good idea... that would make it easier to upload images and give you time to find the other new people for this round

2009-05-19 [Cillamoon]: YAY!!! Linderel I'm so happy you are going to join in on this one! :D!!!!

2009-05-19 [Linderel]: Figured I'd give it a go again. :)

2009-05-19 [Cillamoon]: And I'm so glad that you did! I'm really trying to get things rolling to start tomorrow.

2009-05-20 [Lothuriel]: I agree with [Moira]. I could not participate in the last round because I couldn't upload my photos. Elftown is STILL timing out on me randomly and won't let me upload photos.

2009-05-20 [sweet.tx.tea]: Yes, I will be active for this one. If people reappear, I will withdraw to give them opportunity. Besides, I do enjoy seeing other people's work. :D And, THANK GOODNESS! I thought my internet was screwing up. It has not been me! XD
