I'm normally real passive about things like this but these contest results really got under my skin and for the record I could care less whether mine won or not, though I have to admit, I thought it had a chance.I also thought that there were some magnificent pieces of art on here that smoked what I put up and they didn't even get mentioned. Something about this place just isn't right! With that out of the way I am wondering what was in the judges eggnog when they judged this contest? Whatever it is, I think they should share, then maybe we'll all feel better! Fortunately, I did learn a very valuable lesson, Renderosity is great, so long as you are buying objects and looking at art, just don't enter their contests. I am truly sorry for the sour grapes approach as this normally isn't my style but this is the second time that I personally have seen this happen and from listening to other artists on here it apparently happens all the time. To the winners, you have my congratulations, though I'm not sure that all of them should have it coming. Don't get me wrong some people in the winners list deserve to be there and some who are on there don't. Sorry, but the truth is the truth and it's about time somebody said it on here. I am also going to Thank Lillian because I know she busted her tail with every aspect of this contest, I just wish that it had turned out better and you had gotten the credit you so deserve. For whatever it is worth, you have my heartfelt thanks!
