Please bare in mind that everyone progresses at a different rate. If you strongly disagree with someone's cake decorating level, please send me, Deah, or Eileen S a private message and we will look into it. I kindly request that you don't start attacking people in the forums.After the contest is over, I will give everyone the opportunity to comment about how they think the contest went and whether or not we should do something like this again. I appreciate everyone's patience and understanding that we are giving this a try in the effort to give all cake decorators of different levels the opportunity to participate in a contest.

Tina -Total plagerism here! Copied from Eileen's previous comments but since the instructions are so well written I thought I would use them again.
We actually need you to add it to the general photo section. Click on "Photos" on the upper toolbar, then on "Add Photos". Click "Upload Photos" and choose the one you want to enter. Once it loads, change the title to "Winter Holiday Cake Contest" and we'll Feature it so people can vote. Message me if you have any trouble!

I'm sorry Tina, I should have checked this before I posted last time. This contest is for less experienced cakers - 30 cakes or less. From the number of photos you have posted it looks like you are more experienced than that. Let me know if that isn't the case.

I have made a LOT of cakes over the past year ( when I started doing cake for fun) , how do you determine if somebody has made at least 30 cakes? Do people have to have at least 30 cake photos uploaded?

That is one way we check but really we expect honesty. The prizes are high dollar amounts so we hope people will play by the rules.
