KG Admin Artist Info	8:23:00 AM Sunday, May 11, 2008 guy, that seems to be happening pretty often. You need to go back in and edit and update it. Make sure it is not simply pasted from Word with special characters..etc.

Jean-Cclaude Kabongo (67) Artist Info	10:28:00 PM Thursday, May 15, 2008 Yes ADMIN I haven't been able to submit all my monthly themes and i don't know why everytime i submit them the files are always empty on the previews of my renderings. is there a different way to submit.
KG Admin Artist Info	12:32:00 PM Friday, May 16, 2008 Jean, this is the only way to submit. You have only submitted once - back in Feb. and the images were fine. I'd recommend that you name your images with no spaces or special characters.
John Deal (347) Artist Info	5:11:00 PM Friday, May 16, 2008 Just wondering where or how i should shrink the pictures to the correct size.
KG Admin Artist Info	4:04:00 PM Monday, May 19, 2008 John: Adobe Photoshop
stephen christian (402) Artist Info	5:27:00 PM Monday, May 19, 2008 crazy busy time of year, forgot all about the theme...no excuse, but i don't think that i would've made it anyhoo. marquette, michigan, nike acg. inspirational colourways are from the nequemenon ski marathon, the ore to shore mountain bike race, and hogsback, an amazing hiking trail with an even more amazing view.
John Deal (347) Artist Info	6:50:00 PM Monday, May 19, 2008 admin:Thanks for filling me in becuase I read through the old forums and they recomeneded TinyPic.Oh and nice job Guy.

guy perez (40) Artist Info	3:52:00 PM Tuesday, May 20, 2008 Thanks for the coment johnny!i appreciate it. Sarah,i'm glad you like my design.it's nice to see an american with israeli connection.how long you gonna stay in israel? btw sarah, i have'nt went to design school yet,after i released from the army,but i'm checking things out.
archie tolentino (210) Artist Info	1:54:00 AM Wednesday, May 21, 2008 i know i'm a nobody to say this since i hadn't made any of the finals, but i'm looking forward to designs which incorporate their hometown in the actual design, shape or perhaps materials of the shoe... using only colorways and graphic prints are just way too easy... just my two cents... great designs peeps! i get inspired here when i see, should i say "i dare you" designs... lakeshow vs. motown in the finals baby!!!
sotiris tasiopoulos (60) Artist Info	7:10:00 AM Wednesday, May 21, 2008 Hi guys!was missed for a while since summer season started busy busy here on Skiathos island..Happy to be in n' waiting forward for all finalists..Guy,nice job man..it's nice to see new guys on the block..welcome!Good luck to everyone!Cheers..
