    Send your entry and pee to Mark, right?

    And let the shadiest member win?

        First I planed a nice board, then sharpened my chisels...

        Seriously, It is a combination of various background layers with the wood images and then a text layer with various embossing, bevel and shadow styles added.

            You get my vote as of around and hour ago as your sloppy and slacking attitude towards posting this week has meant you (or I) missed my deadline

            Do I get to do a re-buy

              Sometime this weekend I'm going to post several different versions of plaques for the fact checker if that is ok. What I'll post won't be a smooth version but rather some quick and dirty ideas to see what everyone thinks might work. Loring do you have any preference since it's going to be coming your way? I've done a couple that are overly fancy and a couple that are traditionally boring. I tried doing an image of the BT saw but I couldn't get enough detail for a carve.

                  I wouldn't think of goading you on to more posts since I already have it figured out.

                          If at first you don't succeed, deny you were trying in the first place.

                            We need to slow him down a little since my lady friend kept me busy this weekend and there are no plaques yet.

                              Nope just eliminating the "Ebay" guesses. With 20 post yet to be posted everyone will have to make a windage adjustment and guess. So you could wait until the 9980 post point and then guess, but if Loring posts a quick 9981 your entry won't count.

                              So get your entries in.
