While prizes are nice, I don't enter to win anything. I enjoy the contest and seeing what other people do. Maybe a little avatar with bragging rights is enough: "Photo Winner/Oct '07" would be fine. Prizes of live animals especially make it bittersweet for people in other countries to enter. Why not just do it for fun? I am more than willing to offer some animals for prizes, I've got some remaining rootbeers, but I might not be able to donate shipping at this time. That's why I think its just fun to enter, but prizes aren't why I participate.

Yeah that's a good idea! And right now, I'd take anything! It's been about two years since I've added to my mini collection! I might have something next year, but they wont be anything special. Unless I have any hidden genes, they'll be normals het amel.

How about if I donate something like a T-shirt with the winning photo on it and Corn Snake Source on the front or something (tote bag, mouse pad, coffee mug, etc? There are plenty of places on the net that will put your pet's photo on a shirt.

And honestly, I just enter for the fun and to see everyone's entries. The prizes don't really motivate me in one way or another.

size issues - hybrids?

Does anyone know how to downsize (lol)? I've gotten to 795 x 795, 595 x 982 and 511x 871 but if I go smaller I ruin the picture.

One more question - are hybrids included or only pure corns?

Cropping is how I got them to the size they are now. I'll have to keep fiddling around with them, maybe I can get one down to size.
