Grr! My parents said I can't enter the contest. Something about internet safety...

That's a shame. Hope they change their minds!

KathyAnderson · May 04, 2013, 08:38:12 PM

Believe me, they won't change their minds...

But thanks for saying that anyway.
On a happy note, I can't wait to see everyone else's dioramas!

What are they afraid of?

KathyAnderson · May 05, 2013, 02:10:37 AM

I have no idea...it just really makes me mad...

Sorry to read that, Kathy... $:-\$ But somehow I can also understand your parents a little (I have two sons). They care for you and want to protect you from any possible risk. Admittedly, the internet isn't always the safe and cosy place it looks like. They don't know anybody here in the forum personally - but if you made an entry and win, your address would be required. It may seem uncool and unjustified at first but I can understand when your parents are worried about that. My two sons are still too young (seven and four) for unsupervised online activities but I will probably be just as cautious and alert as your parents once they start surfing on their own.

Thank you for your comments, brontocus.

You all have been really nice and that's why I just didn't understand...I guess it sorta makes sense.

I received the prizes from Safari Ltd today!

AnimalToyForum · June 13, 2013, 12:52:05 PM

I'm pleased to report that entries have started to come in!

brontodocus · June 18, 2013, 09:33:44 AM

And with still more than ten weeks left and the weather getting better and better I'm sure we will see a lot of very fine diorama entries in the end!

AnimalToyForum · July 06, 2013, 09:38:40 AM

Two months remaining to submit your diorama

AnimalToyForum · July 28, 2013, 06:03:38 PM

One month left to submit your diorama photos!

AnimalToyForum · August 19, 2013, 10:01:48 PM

Not long left to submit your contest dioramas. We haven't had too many yet, so everyone has a good chance of winning!

Hi, Only animals or also fantasy??

Hmm. I think only animals. Although fantasy animals...I'd probably accept

By the way, all participants will receive a confirmation email.

I usually send them within a day or two, but I'll be out of town for the last week of August (bad timing!), so some confirmation emails might be a bit delayed. I'll make sure all confirmation emails are sent by the 2nd September.

Battatitan · August 29, 2013, 10:42:11 AM

Can we send our ATF and DTF entries together in the same email, or is it better to send them separately?

OkapiBoy · August 29, 2013, 07:27:58 PM

I would say separately like the instruction said

Less confusing for sorting

AnimalToyForum · August 29, 2013, 11:17:50 PM

Yes, separately please

Or I'll just get confused!

AnimalToyForum · September 04, 2013, 01:40:37 PM

Right! All the entries are now in so I'll post the poll very shortly. Only nine entries in total but the quality is very high indeed! All participants should have received an email by now, if not, let me know.

sauroid · September 05, 2013, 01:53:00 AM

where can we see the entries?
