They're all very nice! If this is ment to be a silent vote competition I'm very sorry, but I like the "postcard" from Norway best.

Do what the Mamod Forum does - declare a tie, exalt both and make the 'winning pic' a gif which flashes between the two equally?

Also...joint second...not bad for my first try. 8)

I all ready have a few options to choose from, I just need to consult them with the other mods to see what their views are 8)

I still need to find out how to get a picture of the winning pic up...something to do next week!

A decision on what is to be done is being put on hold until Friday afternoon, unfortunately the timing of this has clashed with my re-sit exams so time is at a minimum to sort things out!

A decision has been made, and that a joint win is to be congratulated to Lner fan Sam and SLRmidge! However, as Lner fan Sam has so far not won a competition as of yet, I am giving him the honour of choosing the next theme for the Autumn Competition! :D

Expect an incoming PM sometime later this evening Sam!
