Ouch, my self-esteem....

Well, that's a kick in the teeth. I actually take a photo that I really like and bam! Knocked out of the competition. Suck. I really thought I was doing well this time. Which is just more fuel for my philosophy to never believe in myself or think that anything good will ever happen to me. Positive-thinking as a technique for me is apparently a crock. So nuts to that.

I wanna see these other pics that were supposedly so much better than yours.

I'm sure you getting booted was for reasons ranging from dumb judges to who the voters/judges are friends with.

there was at least one other time you posted a link to a competition where the ones that were "better" I thought were kinda lame and cliche.

so long story short....poo on them. :P

Wow, I didn't even realize so many non-doll people paid attention to these posts! That makes me feel even better about things.

Here's the link to this last round:

Thanks for the solidarity, I appreciate it a lot. :)

pft.

I personally think two of them should be disqualified for the writing. it's a photo--if you can't get your point across visually then you're not doing your job.

and I don't even get the one with the upside-down-losing-pants guy.

the other chick did the same thing in theory as you did, but yours had ACTUAL FIRE FTW.

I would definitely chalk it up to dumb judges.

and while I wouldn't want any of the dolls in my house, cuz I think they're kinda creepy, I do like your photos of them and stuff. so I may skim a little through your posts about actually collecting them and stuff, but I pay attention sometimes. ;)

besides, I am the chick who married this guy, so I understand obsession a little.

Well, one of them did ask and the in charge person allowed it, though I do agree it kind of takes away from the "photo" aspect of it, if you have to use text to explain it.

I think it was Harry Potter? They have wands?

lol Well, that's cool that you do enjoy my pictures. I understand creepy dolls aren't everyone's cup of tea and take no offense to it. I've thought about starting a seperate doll journal, but I'm too lazy to switch back and forth so it all gets lumped together. :p

Hehe, yeah, we all have our "collections" of one thing or another, don't we.
