A red on my 18th challenge......entries in 108 & 109 now with no ribbon in danger from me. I had a sixth and a ninth in there.....
Can you say, "One hit wonder"?

They give out ribbons here? Wow! 113 challenges and none in site, well, unless you count the 4th and 5th places which are only also rans.

Maybe 1000 challenges before I get a ribbon... too bad I lost my fisheye lens, as it seems I need it to get above 5th place. ;-)

We've always known the answer was 42, and now you have provided us with the ultimate question!

I got my one and only ribbon on my 86th challenge entry. There were entries I thought would have ribboned (seriously thought, not just hoped) but no such luck. The one that got the ribbon was a shot I took just playing around outside. It was never intended to be for a challenge, but I decided to shoe horn it in at the last minute. Go figure.

Your also-rans are better than many many ribbon-winners. I'm a fan of yoiur work. Keep up the good work!

Almost exactly one year. I entered my first challenge on Jan. 9, 2007 and won my first ribbon on Jan. 8, 2008. That was challenge number 104 for me!
