Hi everyone,

I've dreaded this, sitting down and judging your efforts. Im so pleased with all the entries- your affinity for the characters is evident in every piece. You dont know how delighted I was by each piece as they arrived one by one, and to see them all on the page together like that was kind of overwhelming.

But this is a contest, and there can only be one winner- er, rather, six winners.

anyway, thanks to all of you and I hope when we do this again next year, you'll contribute again - it's quite a Gallery you've helped create!
