January Challenge + Christmas Polls
Yay! Last Secret Santa arrived, everyone submitted a dragon, I'm thinking the activity condition worked well

Christmas Final Poll:
[link]Pick the winner! Made from the top 4 from each of the previous polls.
I have moved all of the 2011 challenges into one gallery folder, Secret Santa included.
REMEMBER if you want to enter the January challenge you must credit the stock properly. Its not hard, I have provided a How To, you can find this on our front page below the current journal. You must also notify the stock provider by sending a link to your picture. Often they have a rule for how they want to receive that, please check their rules.
Also remember that I check the rules of the stock images I choose, there should be nothing to catch you out like non-commercial use or no off-site use, if you use other stock as well you must check that provider's own rules yourself. I'm only looking after the stock I pick, if you break someone else's rules that's your problem to solve.
