I'm right there with you. I'm just going to do side challenges for awhile until I get over the sting of the last ones that I have entered and sucked at. |
I'm right there with you girls... totally demoralised after the hidden treasures challenge. |
*lower lip quivering* But...but if you guys leave...and I know LadyK may be among your number...then who am I going to have childish pissing contests with?!
DON'T LEAVE MEEEEEEEE!!!!!

My frustration doesn't have anything to do with scores (though my low key score really sucked). It's the rules that are bugging me right now. I shot for the triptych challenge. I edited each of 3 pictures using basic rules. Then when I combined them in photoshop you had no choice but to use layers. Each picture you paste in adds another layer. That's against basic rules. I mentioned this in the thread about it, and was told to pull it by an SC or it would be DQ'd. So I did. Then it's said to be legal for this challenge. But I've been burned by being told two different things before and would rather not risk another DQ. So I wasted my time shooting and editing for it. It's just frustrating and I miss my update button. Oh well. |

That's why I avoided the triptych challenge and will shoot something safe for my corner of the world... maybe a nice cheery shot of me huddled in a fetal position in a corner, clutching a Canadian flag in one hand and swigging from a bottle of maple syrup with the other, all the while having a crazed (aka normal) expression in my eyes... |

The suggestion to pull it was made before the (invisible to you) SC discussion. Pasting the three Basic-edited images side-by-side is definitely legal for this challenge -- just re-submit it. The suggestion to withdraw the entry was only a "safety feature" to make sure that, if the SC discussion had gone differently, you would not suffer a DQ through forgetting (or being unable) to withdraw the entry later.

Nahh, just being a drama queen :-) It was actually really great, met Ryan's Magnumphotography's family and apparently they approve of me. And LadyK, surely we can find something else petty and mindless to bicker over, with the understanding being that I, Mistress Snaffles, am always right - remember? ;-) |

Should have another one of these soon:
Daughter-in-law says if it turns out as cute as this one, she'll consider patenting the genetic blend and selling fresh eggs and sperm all ready for the turkey baster.
Young people nowadays... |

nonono, I know you just hit 7, I've been watching the threads. There were just a few votes trickling in that ended up bringing me down a bit, so I was just worried that they might have hit you, too. |

No, the last two are the ones that put me at 7.0000.
I've been watching this crawl up for the last three days, and now that it hit 7, I'm going to go read 'til rollover 'cause I at least have it for now.
It will be what it will be at 12:05.
I'll be back then.....8>) |

good luck! I don't think I'll make it until rollover tonight, but I'm starting to get really curious as to who's going to win this one. |
