I must be ignorant but is the contest over? Anyway, i personally think its unfair about the requirements of 100 posts to parcipate in that contest, Since there are some posters who stay on this forums for Months or even years and have less than 100 posts... Like me. But oh well I know i wont win.
I cant wait till the near future contests. I hope its a photoshop contest!! cuz i am the King of adobe photoshop hehe.
EDIT: Alex, I think you should post the original pictures of Santa, Rudoplh and the Elf. Because i have seen numbers of pictures and avators that includes rudolphs and elfs as well. Can you post the 3 pictures before the contest starts for those people?
