Wow, that was quick. Already got entries. (Good ones too). I was going for something that everyone could enter, and that would get a lot of entries, instead of, like, 4. lol.

You got the right idea, Don:D He's way up there.

That's a snake that looks good in any surroundings.

[RedSidedSPR]

Well, my plan worked... :D lots of entries. (good ones) Keep 'em coming!.

[guidofatherof5]

I love all the entries. Will be hard to decide.

Don!!! That's the funniest picture ever!! Hahaha

[Venti]

Jepie, I loved the picture of your garters curled up together :)
The contrast between the orange and the green is lovely.

[RedSidedSPR]

Wow Nick. Thats one content lookin' snake :D

[ConcinusMan]

I don't think I've ever seen a fat snake that didn't look content. It's just impossible to be that fat and not look content, you know? :p

[RedSidedSPR]

Exactly.

I promise I'm not trying to be overly competitive, people. I just saw some of the recent pics and got a bit of inspiration.

[RedSidedSPR]

It's hopeless :D

Nice job, man.

[RedSidedSPR]

YEAH!! two pages!! :D

Here's an idea: since a single contestant can post multiple caption pictures, why not have a poll for the individual pictures? That way, a person who posts numerous caption pics (like I did this month) won't have an unfair advantage over someone who posts only one. Besides, I'm usually curious as to which individual picture people find the most entertaining.

[RedSidedSPR]

I was thinking the same thing! I was ready to go vote for one of them, and then... There were only two. :p

I never posted a caption, I wasn't sure if I was allowed.

[Didymus20X6]

Of course you are! The criterion is that it has to be based on one of the official Photo Contest pics. That, and it has to be relatively "clean".

[RedSidedSPR]

Yeah, I couldn't think of one anyway.... :rolleyes:

I suggested that long ago. I guess it got vetoed. It wasn't about an advantage and it's not like anything is at stake anyway. I just wanted to know if a winner had multiple entries, which entry drew the votes?

[katach]

Yeah hard to know which one was most liked if they aren't voted on separately.

[ConcinusMan]

Exactly. But I guess it's too much trouble to set it up that way.

Congrats to Odie for winning the July Photo Contest and to Didymus20X6 for winning the July Caption Contest.
Nice work.

Odie, best be thinking of this month's theme so we can have as much time as possible to make our entries.;)
