Hope this helps.
I like this, because it requires people to step forward if they DO want to compete. Since this is a _competition_, their stepping forward means (hopefully) that they are prepared for the possibility that they might not be chosen as the winner -- which minimizes possible hurt feelings. I'd also suggest that having some small "token" for everyone who enters would be very nice -- something as small as a pretty bar of soap or a fresh rose. ____________________________________________________________ 0 Chris Laning | <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> + Davis, California http://paternoster-row.org - http://paternosters.blogspot.com ____________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list [email protected] http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
