First things first; I'm bummed that my entries in the Generalissimo's "Where in the Blog is Hugh's Book" photoshop contest didn't make the top ten finalists. But not very; I stink at Photoshop. Partly because I don't own Photoshop, or even Paintshop Pro (my favorite graphics program, in that I can actually understand how to use it) at the moment, and had to do both entries in MS Paint. Partly because I'm just not a graphics guy. Still, I liked both of my entries:
#99 (for out of towners, that's the statue of Mary Tyler Moore, tossing her cap on the spot in front of the old Daytons store where she shot the scene from the billboard of her show).
and #219 - (Hate to mess with JB Doubtless' favorite band, but comedy must go on).

See why I'm not a graphics guy?
Anyway, check out all 325 entries on this page (which takes a while to load, and is not recommended for dialup; Duane's going to need to take a second job to pay his bandwidth this month).
However, make sure you get in and vote for your favorite in the top ten. Of particular interest, local graphics geniuses Freedom Dogs, with the #10 entry.
