I am ecstatic! Ever since I entered my first challenge here at DPC, I have been trying to get my first entry out of my Top Four Thumbnails on my profile page. FINALLY, and BARELY, it has happened. Ironically, my first shot was called Evolution. I have finally evolved into a slightly better photographer (knocked it out of the Top Four by .003 points). Thanks to all who contributed to this moral and personal victory!

Congratulations!! My goal is to make each week go higher.

Yeah!! I too, try to better each one. Still trying to bust that 6 mark. These last 2 challenges, I got my highest AND my lowest. That is a milestone. LOL

My settings are set to show 5 thumbnails. Guess you better keep working. = P

I met my goal with the Emotions challenge I just wanted to score in the top 50% of a members challenge...ok now that done...I'm going for the top 25%. See I'm easy to please, I just keep working on it and of course we all know the ultimate goal.

I was mildly impressed. I know my entry for time wasn't great, but it still finished above a 3. Not terrible for a firs try when I knew it wasn't a great shot.

Is it the same as mine? To crush Setzler like a grape :) Just Kidding!

No not to crush Setzler like a grape, but to get a first place winner...guess that means make sure he doesn't win just once.

I'm still trying to shift my first DPC entry - never gotten a score as high since - I should have quit while I was ahead....

I used to have a similar goal - to shift the dodgy self portrait off my profile page, and I have 6 thumbs-per-row :-/
Unfortunately it's proving very difficult to move - even my first ribbon didn't budge it, so I gave up & made it my profile pic too!

For me it's too much like cooking. I can't leave well enough alone. I have to keep experimenting, so I'm sure I won't do well too often.

Not likely his top 5 pics are all medals. :) Although it would be sweet to "unseat" him. :D

Hey, congrats on achieving your goal... set another one and go for it!! That's what makes it fun!
