**PET PHOTO CONTEST**

[wolf_Q]

Hey--what are some of your ideas for type of awards? I'm thinking, Best Trick, Cutest Expression, Best Markings, Prettiest Eyes...uhh any ideas? Of course I'll have a 1st, 2nd, 3rd place also, but I want to have some other awards.

[karlicat]

Those topics you said are good, and maybe best costume, or funniest tail, or funniest picture, or funniest expression, or furriest dog, or most candid picture?

Biggest Flirt? Hmm.. Model Material? Cutest Couple?

[wolf_Q]

Hmm I seem to have lost the email for the owners of these pets:
Gizmo (calico cat)
Sandy, Snoopy, and Jewel (chihuahuas and coonhound) The reason is the emails were sent to my other mail so I forwarded it...and in the forward it doesn't have their email address. Would anyone get angry if I posted the emails that I have just to make sure yours are on my list? If so, just let me know and I won't.

Oh! I forgot to tell you guys about this cool thing I discovered (maybe you've already heard about it but I hadn't..) It's called the Pet Link Exchange. You have to put a banner on your website, in exchange you get your banner put onto that banner (if that makes any sense) I've only had the banner on my website for a few days and my banner's exposure is 929, that means it's been shown on the banner 285 times a day. You can see the banner at the bottom of my website (it's quite small, and you can choose from 3 sizes) http://www.geocities.com/wolf_q/home.html Oh and the best part...it's FREE! Your website just has to be about pets. I can help anyone make a banner that size too if you need me too! Just thought I'd tell you about it!~~Amy http://www.petlinkexchange.com/index.html?refid=wolfq

Aly, that's Harley all right, it did capture the look in his eyes, what a wonderful drawing.

Simba is going to have a tough time to win when hes next up to all these cuties!!!
But if we do use some of thoose topics in chooseing who wins i think Simba could win in:
Prettiest Eyes
amd Best Trick
Everyone comments me about his eyes and how pretty they are and once u have one glance into them u fall in love with him. Maybey thats why I got him when he was just sitting there at the dog pound stareing into my eyes.

And Simba knows tons of tricks i think his best one is how he says "rI Wruff rooo" (i Love You) One day i am going to buy a mic and record him saying that and put it on my wab page for everyone to hear!

BaSim--Simba really is cute! I'm sure he will win something, hehe. This might take me a while to judge, lol. I added some more pics, although I still have several more to add. The Pet Portraits cost:
9x12 pencil/colored pencil $30, watercolor $35
11x14 pencil/colorec pencil $40, watercolor $45
9x12 cartoon colored pencil $20, $10 if you order another portrait (regular one)
I also can do woodburning--like signs, pets for your doorframe, etc. and ummm any requests, just ask, lol. I'm starting to do 16x20 acrylic paintings also. These would be done with a very realistic background and I would take at least a month on it...I'm doing one of a cougar right now and it's taking me forever, all those details. Probably around $200, don't ask me why I'm writing all this I just feel like rambling.

Thanks for posting the pic of Harley, Aly!

[Daisy's Mom]

I just entered Daisy. Droopiest face? Hehe just kidding. She wouldn't have any competition. That wouldn't be fun

[wolf_Q]

Ok the Cute Pet Contest is CLOSED. I'll give you until Tuesday to send in pics but I've already started making awards. Thanks to all who participated, you'll get an email when I'm done!~~Amy
