I moved into tenth place for an hour then number eleven passed me... Every vote helps at this stage. Help me crush the competition and give me a vote if you have a second. apps.facebook.com/promotionshq/contests/...ble_entries/36309651

Thanks Troops!

Thanks David. I think the vote counter is stuck. I've had a lot of friends say they voted but nothing is changing on the contest page. At least I'm not losing ground... :woohoo:

I hope to do OK. I heard from one person that knew some of the competition from other contests. She mentioned two names (both in the top ten) that cheat like crazy. One girl is said to have 60 email addys she votes with while the other tries to report the competition and get them banned. I think half my friends have gotten mad at me for all of my posts asking for votes. Seriously, if I get a camera out of the deal it is still not worth it. I might change my mind IF I do win... LOL.

Thanks again David.

That's the drawback probably to the contests where people vote, always somebody who comes up with a way to stack it in their favor. Some of your photos are getting good enough next time you might do well entering something judged by photographers or a call to artists. Good luck, and if nothing else maybe it'll be a learning experience, if not winning the camera (fingers crossed).

Actually the final vote will be by judges... The trick is getting into the top ten. The cheaters have images that I should be able to beat if judged fairly (IMHO of course:whistle: ). In a way they are lessening the competition. Time will tell and I'm getting used to typing with my fingers crossed... :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Thanks Sharon for the compliment. I'm still working to improve.

Finally, it is the last day for voting. Thanks for everyone putting up with my campaign. I seem to be firmly entrenched at seventh place now. I hope to finish and win a prize.
