Poll question: Should we have another coloring contest?
These are always fun...I tried to find something Mother's Day related this time around, but the best I could come up with was this old "Nanny and the Professor" coloring book...



Now here's your picture, should you choose to enter, and remember kids, this is an innocent children's coloring book...




The rules are simple, the first ten people who summit to this thread by, six o'clock Eastern tomorrow night will be entered in a poll.

Unless no one wants to do it, in which case I'll take my crayons and go home...
:P

2. Fun fun!
But we don't get judged on being conventional and staying in the lines, do we? That would so NOT be fun!

3. Of course not, judging is based on fun
If you're not having fun; you're out of the contest.

5. You might want to use photoshop for this contest
or some other such program.

Though if you want to print it out and color it in in the traditional way, that's fine too.

7. Oh, cool, maybe when you get your star you can join us
over in the Artists Group.

I'm more of an oil paint pastel man myself.

8. What does it take to get a star?
Do I have to post like crazy? I would love to join the artists group! Ah, oil pastels are a fave of mine as well-I'm into the Cray-pas lately, the kids I work with love them!

9. You have to make a donation to DU
It doesn't have to be much, only something like five bucks or so.

But you get special privileges such as posting in groups...

Here's the link to the Artists Group if you'd like to take a look...
