First I want to thank you for your generosity Sabine (love that name by the way). This thread was very informative and was worth reading just for the history lesson. I used Arien's results for the simple reason that you had made the statement "But the contest is NOT YET OVER! Someone else might as well give the same answers". I now see the word "cheating" in one of the posts here. While it clearly was stated as "I for myself would have felt like cheating" so it was not an accusation I still get the impression it is aimed at me because I did what you said someone else might as well do. Not wanting to be the cause of any hard feelings on anyone elses part I feel I must retract my post/answer. No hard feelings. Again thank you so much for generously offering such beautiful textures as a prize. Your work is stunning and I look forward to seeing more of your creations in the future. Congratulations Arien on a job well done. You DEFINITELY deserve the prize. :)
