I would have to agree with most of the posters here that the idea is to learn. I haven't posted anything yet since I'm very new, but when I do, I will probably post a WIP or 2 just to get the feedback (negative as well as positive). Since there is no money or prize awarded, just the respect of our peers, I see nothing wrong with it. As has been stated before in this thread - the idea is to learn. That being said, and since it's too late to start anything for this month's challenge, when will Sept's challenge be posted (and where)? Also, is there a ruling against using multiple programs to create different parts of your scene and comping them in Photoshop?
