2007-04-27 [Nadie importante]: [windowframe] I did what you told me and now it works, however i wish i could just fix the problem because on the original one is where i have all the layers and stuff... but if itsnot possible thanks anyway! at least u gave me an alternative:)!

2007-04-28 [windowframe]: YOu should be able to drag all the layers across; but I think the problem is to do with how you scan the picture in - if you tell it to do a black & white scan, it'll set the canvas type to greyscale. Could be wrong, though. :3

2007-04-28 [Nadie importante]: yeah i was actually able to copy paste the layers, but i scanned normaly...but oh well, the entry is finished^^ with colour:P

2007-05-01 [SlightlySpiked]: ive never heard of a trunk dragon. can sum1 ummm......help me out?

2007-05-01 [windowframe]: There's a definition at the top of the page, " A trunk dragon is much like a normal dragon, but it has a trunk (like an elephant) that it breathes fire from. Though they cannot breath as much fire as their cousins, the trunk dragons can breathe a much more concentrated stream of fire that allows them to precisely aim the fire exactly where it hurts"

2007-05-01 [Yncke]: I don't think there's anything to help out about. It's a dragon with a trunk to breathe fire through, everything else about a trunk dragon is up to you and your imagination. ;)

2007-05-01 [SlightlySpiked]: i feel ignorant now. this is just tha first time ive heard of a trunk dragon.

2007-05-01 [Stephen]: Well, that's because Hedda and I (mainly Hedda) made it up. =p

2007-05-01 [SlightlySpiked]: oh, ok.lol

2007-05-11 [grayghost]: this might sound like a really stupid question but here it goes. What is a Trunk Dragon??

2007-05-11 [Linderel]: Quoted directly from the top of the page: "A trunk dragon is much like a normal dragon, but it has a trunk (like an elephant) that it breathes fire from."

2007-05-11 [Paul Doyle]: Quick question: is deadline 12 May 2007, at 0000 hrs ET time, or 12 May 2007 at 2359 hrs, ET time? If the case of #2, it'll be done. In the case of #1, ouch o__O

2007-05-11 [Sunrose]: It is always at the end of the day, I don't understand why you're asking this again.

2007-05-11 [Paul Doyle]: Thanks. I sincerely apologize.

2007-05-13 [Paul Doyle]: Reason being: in the past, some contests were closed based on the host's local time zone, and not ET's. One Herald-related contest closed at 12:01 AM, in the timezone of eastern Australia (which is UTC +10). Where I live, in northeast USA (UTC-4), is a very significant time zone difference! I couldn't finish my pic for that particular contest, because I was assuming the contest was going by ET time. So, you can see my question wasn't entirely unfounded . . . thankfully, using ET time has standardized everything. :)

2007-05-13 [Sunrose]: It was unfounded to me, because you asked me this question on an official Council-contest before. Mistakes are sometimes made, but official contests have for a long time been closed at 24:00 ET time.
Mind that the Council does not have a specific relation to the Herald, it does not control their contests.

2007-06-11 [Artsieladie]: First, I want to thank the Council for selecting my piece to be among those featured in the Mainstreet poll, as well, it being their choice. (Thank you [Sunrose] for adding this mention of on Mainstreet! :D) I want to thank all those that voted for my art piece in the poll. To be quite honest & b/c I'm a realistic artist, I have been seriously contemplating that my art doesn't really fit here on Elftown, b/c this is a community of fantasy & science fiction, not that I don't love it here for heaven knows I do. However, I must say, the citizens of & the Council of Elftown have forced me to rethink my thinking. This contest was going to be my last that I was going to enter. It's almost as though everyone knew what I was thinking. So, w/o dragging this comment out too much, I again say, a deep & heartfelt thank you to all! God Bless & *gigantic huggles*
