Way to go Aaron - PM me with your details mate!

Well done to everyone in the final, and thanks for everyone who participated throughout the year.

Thanks a whole heap to Jamie for running the finals series for me - you have been a great help mate!

Some great virts were created throughout the year.

As I do any work to any of the trees that I have used for the virts I will post them for everyone's interest.

Thanks again!

Keep an eye out for a new comp (or idea) - coming soon!
Cheers,
Leigh.

I have enjoyed this competition immensely, it has definitely brought out some wonderful concepts for the subject matter. Some were a bit fanciful.

If you are one of the winners over the last 12 months well done. For the finalists a very good job,done well, and for the winner Aaron a big :lol: :lol: :o :) :twisted: :roll:

They do not have a drum roll, or huge smiley like on Stymies site, so I thought, if I put enough, they would add up to one big WHOOOPEEE.

Cheers :D Pup
