Gold color...

Now, my father was jeweller, and I saw many kinds of gold in my life... The things I mentioned are not gold, but looks shiny gold... There is white gold, green gold, red gold... depends on what you put in the gold to give color, and strengthen.

Open to argument :)

I think that, in this challenge, extra points should be awarded to all geologists as a gesture of appreciation.

All of these â��goldâ�� ideas remind me of how my day went. I know thereâ��s probably a lot of horror stories of how people try to meet the challenges, but allow me to vent mine. To begin with, Iâ��m ill with a major head cold. I have all the typical problems that go with it: body aches, coughing, sneezing, runny nose, etc. In general, I feel like crap. This is the first summer season cold Iâ��ve had in years. Anyways, I call in sick at work and stay at home. Throughout the day, I took short naps. Then go to the computer, check out the forums on DCP and go back for another nap. While Iâ��m sleeping, Iâ��m dreaming of this Gold Challenge. These are really weird dreams! I think itâ��s the cold medicine or me just being disoriented in general. Somehow, I get this awesome idea of a photo using chocolate gold coins. I get off the couch with every intention of going to the store to buy some. However, I only managed to make it to the bathroom and then proceeded to go back to the couch. Chances are Iâ��m going to miss this challenge, but I should be able to do a lot of voting and commenting on photos. I hope your day was better. Good luck everybody. :-)

ok, need to clarify this, we are talking gold colour (color) rather than solid gold? This will be my most expensive prop purchase to date (and thats even if the guy buys it back off me on Monday like he promised)

Challenge desc says find something gold, not find something made of gold. Of course the interpretation could go either way, and probably will. A shame the challenge descs can't be better defined.
