I thought it was a characteristic of only women to be able to go out on a hunt and not come home with dirt under their nails. I could be studying outdated info though.

I keep my nails so short that there isn't room for anything to be under them, that and long nails on men kinda disgust me. Hygiene is important

I'm going to make a couple observations, I sincerely hope they're not taken the wrong way, or personally, but since in general the board is about learning maybe this falls under it. It should probably also fall into the 'who gives a rats butt about it' bin and not worth a post, but here goes, since i entered, i figure i get a minor say.
1) if you announce a contest and make rules, its really not cool to change the rules after the contest entry ends. 2) if you say you are going to be the judge, be the judge. you'll have to make a decision and it may be difficult, but you made the rules. [see above] 3) if you are going to submit it to a vote by the general public, perhaps the photos should be submitted by pm, so that only you as the moderator of the contest knows who submitted them, so its actually a contest, and not just a love-fest. 4) I still think there should be two tiers, one for people that love the photography aspect and invest a lot of time, effort and money into it and produce those really stunning results, and another for peeps that tromp through the woods, not always necessarily looking for mushrooms, but come across cool stuff and document with what they have available, usually a phone. I think there are more of these than the former out there. To lump them together is pitting pros against amateurs which as we know from other aspects of life, usually has one outcome.
on a personal note, i entered for the fun of participation and really didn't want/need a spore print, and would be a bit leery of providing the necessary personal info to someone i knew so little (as i've only been posting a short time, perhaps it goes both ways) and didn't expect to win. That said, those of us who have goose-eggs on display, well, have goose-eggs on display. Put yourself in our shoes?
i think it was well intended, and a fun idea, but slightly flawed in execution. I hope this doesn't start some resentment but rather discussion on how to make it better

I liked the voting, And i think most people were honest and voted for there favorite pictures not people.
My only constrctive criticism is that i wish all the pictures on this thread had been the same size, I highly doubt everyone who voted expanded all the thumbnails to appreciate each picture.
Maybe next time make them all thumb nails similar to the POTM threads.
Great contest though and thanks so much for giving to the community Joust!
-------------------- Favorite quote: I want to know if they are active and magic or not. And if they are not active, can i pick them before they are active and then they will become active or do they have to grow till they activate?

ya, maybe the 'bullet points' makes it a bit manifesto-ish. i don't intend it to be. it just in my nature that when i play monopoly with someone and they change the rules mid game, i'd wonder why and say something. call me weird huh?
i agree, voting can be fun. i do it every election
