Yey! Good for all. Congratulations!
John, I did not want to comment and influence the judging, but you must know I loved your entry. Very smart ;)

Thanks Lito, thought it might appeal to you with or without giraffes. I bet there's some quality spoofs of the iPod graphics kicking around the web. The odd thing was that it too so long to come up with the iNod word as the rest of it was instantaneous.
Tanya, I'm so happy for you!
Emmanuel, next time, eh?
mikko - congrats on surviving the hosting, I think these things are the hardest ones to run. May your toilet wall live long and prosper. Here's a crap image created with your smallest room in mind, a bit of toilet humour for you. You can hear the music resonate as you view this one. A few bars of Vivaldi played as a trombone/tuba duet?

Thanks, Mikko. I didn't participate this round, but enjoyed watching what others came up with. My favorite was Emmanuel's. But Tanya's and John's were both very creative and well done too.
I am feeling a little overwhelmed just doing the pp on my own images recently, but perhaps next round I will participate.

YYYYYAAAAAYYYYY woohooo. i won something! heheheheheeee
thanks mikko! it was an interesting picture to work with. I really enjoyed looking at everyone's "vision" and seeing so many funny interpretations! I would hate to think there was a psychologist amongst us, secretly making notes!!
The only bummer is that we have just about finished building our new house and we are moving over the next 4 days, which means I lose the internet. I probably won't be able to get back online until late next week.... will that be too long to wait for a new open source project? annnd you know I'm really a novice at all this, I don't think i'm up for the hosting of a project? or am I being a woosy bag?
I don't know? open to some feedback and if someone would like to take over the hosting let me know..
I'm up to my neck in cleaning and boxes and dust and paperwork, I can't think straight!

Dear all,
Thanks for your thanks! For some reason I managed to copy that version of the text that was not checked (all spelling errors) but it looks like all of you have at least found out who is the winner...
@John:
Thats a wonderful image! You should add a local newspaper somewhere in the pic and it would be a genuine 3 star Michelin photo.. ;-). Are you refering to my inner trombone...? Maybe is should stop here before this really starts to smell. 8-)
@Gobongo:
Now your pic title is corrected. As for he Finlandia vodka (and all other vodkas) it tastes like windshield wash fluid. That is the reason why you have to drink it ice cold and really fast.. ;-). I hope your trip to our deserted corner of europe was a pleasent? I have been couple of times in your part of the world. Only positive experiences..!
When you come here next time I can teach you some others nice phraces!
@Tanya:
"Kerta se on ensimmäinenkin!" ->Something like first time counts also, dont worry... But if you do not have time then it is Emmanuels turn to run the show......
Best regards,
--mikko--

Thanks Mikko for even suggesting me. I am VERY honored!
But it would be the first time I would have to judge other's work, and my English is MUCH too basic. This is the reason I participate (I love this forum!) , but write as little as possible :-).
So please.... how about giving it to John? He is very qualified and one of my favorite photographers....

C'mos Emmanuel there are more than 10 typos in my first centence and it looks like nobody cares.
Just do it!! Do it your way. There is no right and wrong way. Just look at the pictures like you do. Do not think what others might see in them or say about them. Thats at least my way of doing it.

Hey, don't you just love it when a win means so much to someone, being a boring old stodgy kind of person I forget about such excitement in life.
Tanya - just bung and image into the pot for people to hang giraffes on, then get on with your house move (exciting stuff, I'd love to build my own home). Then get back to judging this when you're back on-line. You'll be ready for some relief at that stage, while sat back in rose tinted specs. These competitions need new hosts and new ways of seeing, you are perfect for running it, all you need to do is know what you like and know the difference between a giraffe and an aardvark.
Emmanuel, your English is plenty, I bet you have a larger and more palatable vocabulary that me as I'd no doubt fling in words like bugger which invariably alienate some folk.
I've run these things before and try very hard not to win further ones! I don't mean that quite how it sounds, I simply believe that there are a lot of folk on the forum and its so refreshing to see what other folk do rather than see the same old names running challenges, assignments and open sources.
If Tanya really can't commit, then I do urge you to take the next round. if not, then I throw something in.

Mikko and John - H E L P !!!!!!!!!!!!!
How about letting me "off the hook" just to save my marriage ? (it's worth saving - 41 happy years!)
My lovely wife - who is the one who corrects my English - says NO WAY to anything longer than 3 sentences!
And by the way - she sends you all warm regards...
