... now it seems that the PSC community has had enough and crushed both flower entries in the "Crushed Can" contest

I'm sure there are plenty of other PSC flowers. I only mention these because I happen to have one of the winners and one of the losers (boo-hoo)

well, Vokaris, I voted for it because I thought it was a lovely image. So go figure...

Great chops take time and a lot of care. Some win due to a terrific idea and not so great execution. That's the way it is, I guess.

Keep choppin'...look through other's portfolios...you'll do great. I'm sure!
