Oh good! thanks for fixing it again :)

so, we should just take the first 20 then?

been on an uploading spree. i must have added close to 50 pics to the movie gallery. i know it says there are only 65 pics in that gallery, but there are really well over 100. want to do this before the damn thing breaks again (and there are problems still.... if you have mod status, upload, sure, but do NOT edit pics)

hey, if you have any NC pics that you like, and arent in the gallery, just upload em. like i said above, no thumbnails required, it will make them for you ;)

also gonna make a Nocturne gallery, but can't decide if i should put it under the 'Nightcrawler' section, even tho she's not Nightcrawler, or screw up the nice even layout by making a new category on the main page.... hmmm... decisions....

Jill, you have NO IDEA how happy I am to see that the caption contest may be up and running soon! :D It was one of my favorite features when I first discovered the board. It's a shame that we'll have to limit the captions, but what must be done, must be done. I can see the logistical problems you must face, and putting a 20-post limit seems to be the best solution.

There was usually a deadline for entries. You didn't close the thread after the deadline this time, but the deadline can still apply.

And, btw: Whoo-hoo! Jill!!!

This is great!!! :D The caption contest is going back into action soon.

Maybe you could just do a limit again, and start with a brand new one. That way no one who joined in late will feel that they didn't get their chance because someone before them posted, since everyone will start over again. Eh... that's just a suggestion. :shrug

Sweet Jill! I never got around to participating in the contest before it broke.

Do you still have the two covers of Kurt's crotch that were to be linked to from the Kosher thread? Bunny was a sweetheart and scanned them for me. I think I still have them on my harddrive somewhere, if you can't find them.
I've left the board. Friends know where to find me :)

This is so awesome! You know a pic of them riding sentinels from "the return of the king" story line (haha just realized that that's same name as LOTR 3 :offtopic )
anyhoo that'd be funny. Lots of good stuff you can do with that. (yee-haw and whoops and so on).

Thankyouthankyouthankyouthankyou and

Danke schön Jill,
I really missed the caption contest. If you dont want to put a limit of twenty, you could put a time limit. Either way, I am very happy to see it returned.

Also, I just got quite a few Excaliburs (and Uncannys between 145-215). I dont have them all (yet) but if there are any favorite pictures you may like that are not in the gallery, just ask and Ill scan them and email them to someone on staff.

if you have a lot of pictures, it would be easier for me to just grant you mod status to upload to the galelry... all that you need to \do then is click the 'upload' button and yer done ;)

Yay! Caption contest is back! Awesome!

I'd say to limit it to the first twenty entries, like suggested above.

I'd say only start off with the basic rules, such as only having one entry per person. Then go through what the majority of users think are funny and then single out those as per usual.

Oh! Your taking in some pictures! I have a ton but I'm not sure about some of the pictures. They might already be there. I think most of them aren't though. If you want any I could email you a couple of them. Or I might just upload them onto my Village Photos account and you can check them out there.
