# I like that.
simple.

As has been said, this compo is mostly more of a caption job than an image challenge. I think next week's should have a ban on text within the image - bit of old skool image work.

# do you know
that's rather a splendid idea. I have developed quite a thing for Elephants recently.

# elephants may be the new kittens.
only less practical as house pets.

# It's amazing isn't it
in my opinion this is the worse challenge we've had (no offence) yet it is the one that has reached the widest audience!

# I think there's been some great stuff...
..it's just not very image-based. And is thus easier to create for.

I don't have a problem with it... variety is good. I just think we should spin it the other way this week and go for a pure image effort.

# maybe

# oh no
I don't have a problem with it, I couldn't decide what company to slag off! it's a generic compo entry.
the text at the bottom seems a bit harsh though, I should remove that really..

# I think it's a really
good challenge. Just that people have tended to get stuck on a theme - too many tampax ads etc.

# Bit sorry I suggested it this week now.
Still, I guess I should have thought it through a little more before I put pinkies to keyboard.

Trouble is, although it's possible to be clever with this competition, I forgot that while a lot of folks have problems with the art tools on 'tato, the text tool is very easy to work with...

Ho-hum.

Sorry folks :(
