Well, I'd like to submit mine, if possible - it's not flashy or anything, but it took me four hours to put it together in such a way to accomodate my writing-type stuff...

Very nice photos, Cordatus. What is the piece of artwork in the top/middle? It's stark, yet colorful - and beautiful!

Jillian - Thank you. I honestly don't remember where I found it. If you examine it closely, you will find an Arab man with his wife in the background. Everyone interprets it differently.

Icarus - When I win, I'll make sure I mention your name.

Very nice page, Cuteangel. Your background is awesome! Especially liked also the Virginia Woolf quote and your 'extreme contrast' photo. Nicely done

I made that with Microsoft Gif animator ten years ago, when I was working for a frozen food company. It's the only cartoon I've ever made, but I had plans to make loads after that. I've written toon scripts and drawn strip toons but never animated. Maybe I will one day...

Naah, Iccy. Stop deluding yourself. I'm going to win.

nd I can't wait for Feb 15th (Yes, 15th, not 20th). At least that way I won't have to compete with so many more good profiles, right?
