The Virtual Pumpkin Contest is a contest to see who can design the best
digital pumpkin carving or jack o'lantern, as quoted from their web site.
As to how the judges are going to view the image, that is their problem.;-)
Seriously speaking doesn't everybody have anaglyph glasses? ;;-) My bets
are that they would probably have the glasses as opposed to a stereoscope.
That's another reason why most of my images are in anaglyph. In any case
I consider anaglyphs an art form and don't need the glasses to appreciate
their beauty. Just looking at them (without glasses) invokes certain feelings
similiar to mom baking apple pie.:;:;:;-)
So, I am going with this preconcieved idea that the judges (don't alot of
people?) will have regarding anaglyph images, thus I don't care if they don't
have glasses, simple as that. ;;;;x10000)
You say sounds like apples and oranges, well to me it sounds like pumpkins
and jack o'lanterns. Then again I never "heard" how an apple or orange sound!

Trick or Treat?

Just kiDDDing.
Since I couldn't give you all a treat, this is my trick to P3D for Halloween.
