Man oh man, taking the shot perhaps already sealed your destiny. Uploading it for the competition would have been worth the risk, maybe. But to post it now on the internet for everyone in the world to watch it? You are dead meat!

Very entertaining, though. A good shot that does what Galoot asked for, it "jumps out of the screen at you" (with a scream I might add). Good work!

I hope you will live to experience your 100. post, good luck!

Has anyone heard from last weeks winner. His last log in was 12/02/09 so does he know he has won?

He has received a PM automatic. I am sure one of the moderators will take action if he doesn't come forward.

Let's wait, until that happens.

Martin.

We have to give winners a short while to respond - sometimes people even go away and don't check their e-mails...unthinkable!

Are we supposed to get a regular email or just a forum email when we win? I've never received anything outside of the forum.

Maybe an email to the winner's registered address would be worthwhile.

An e-mail is sent to the winner's e-mail address.

I've never received one. I did get one in the forum mailbox but you have to visit the forum to find out about that.

Maybe other winners could confirm if this is working for them or not.
