if you're using chrome, right click and "inspect element", then double click the code that gets highlighted, then double click the pdf file in the left hand window.

sorry for my lateness in addressing the image problems - i've been running errands all day.

everything is loading fine for me. #1 and #9 are PDFs, so that might explan why they're not showing up, although i can see them just fine. not sure why #8 wouldn't be working... are people still having trouble? if so, are rumspring's links working for you? (thanks, rumspring.)

Wow.

Never expected such a positive response. Thanks guys. Though i did spend a couple looong nights on it! It was a lot of fun. Tough competition. Grats to you too skoola.. had a good run at the end there.

I'm sorry for winning while being such a stranger but I've been a daily visitor for about a year straight now, enjoying discussions and following sales trends and all that. Cant think of a better way to waste time. My only regret is that i didn't find it earlier.

I've been well educated by so many of you. Thanks to everyone who gives to the site. I'm glad to be able to do something for it as well.. and a big thanks to Mary for puttin this on. I'm so stoked.

i have a new framing priority. :)

Great job! I was completely wrong...I thought your entry was Pat! (hence the lucky bastard comment above)

Don't apologize for your talent man your entry was by far the best of the bunch imo.

Also if anyone wants my "prototype" just let me know and I will ship it out.
