Thank you, Dee-Marie! You and Cindy, with your IM's made me curious about this forum... so I came to see how you are all here :-)

Douglas, all kinds of Certifications can be bought on web - I'm not sure if should believe or not....:-)

Thank you both for your kind words! :-D

Newbie here - but been in 2D forum more. But it's fun to visit different places, and meet nice people everywhere - and especially learn more every day! Nice to meet you, Tedz :-)

Great action! Snowballs are fun :-)

Hi Douglas! Thank you for your nice welcoming words! I heard them very well :-) Yes, the dog is my Kirppu aka Flea in English. He is a little cute fellow - weighs about 45 kilos, and from nose to tail he is about one and half meters long, and his head is just high enough to be above our kitchen table. He is my best friend :-)

Thanks Cynthia! You know how to encourage us poor photographers with a as poor digi camera lol I really appreciate your words! Maybe we'll see another time yet. :-)

Thank you so much, Cynthia! It's pity that everybody can make only one suggestion :-) I could make at least some color variations of this - now it has quite natural colors, but toned gradually with golden orange looks also nice (IMHO). I hope you find the most perfect banner for this great forum :-)

Thanks Rich! I know this ain't any good as a photo but I thought the sign idea was what counts as well. And I didn't see any winter signs in the challenge gallery. If this is too bad quality I can remove it. I don't get hurt - as I told I'm not a photographer. :-)

Scary and funny pictures! My vote 1. Gunsan's Simon 2. pstekky's Spider 2. Gunsan's Entangled Thank you, Satanimus, for organising this challenge - it's always so fun to view wonderful art! I hope I understood voting right! If not.... then.... :-)
