[SIZE="5"]Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. It's winter, at least in the northern hemisphere. While some parts of the world has been unusually balmy, others have been buried under tons of snow. So this week, let's make snow cones out of all that snow. The theme this week is SNOW! So find...

It was a smaller number of entries than I anticipated for this time of the year (I thought there were a lot of Christmas trees around). Still, it wasn't lacking in quality and "interest", especially with that deer head that wasn't even part of the tree! :) Please vote for the picture that...

This is an old snapshot I found at the swap meet: All it says on the back is "summer 1948". I am thinking of doing a drawing of it, and just using that scrawled note as the title of the drawing, Summer 1948, but it feels like it needs cropping to improve the composition. I've tried...
