Congrats, guys!

Thanks Szalinski, very good gesture by you.

A big congratulations to Incrediwagon, a fantastic shot.

And a massive congratulations too for Cosy, great shot, very imaginative and impressive.

Weeeee! That's a surprise!

Well thank you very much - I'm honoured to have won a couple of monthly contests, let alone the end of year B Movie Extravaganza

I'll even let Szalinski off his rather colonial spelling of my tag

I've really enjoyed all the entries over the past year... not just the winners, but the 2nd and 3rd places... as well as some that didn't garner many votes at all!

Hey ho - looking forward to seeing lots of entries in the Photo Competitions this coming year too - the themes always throw up some great and imaginative shots.... so CONGRATULATIONS TO EVERYBODY who took part at some point during the year!

nice winners, congratulations.

all good and well , and i voted for many non sex dolls,
but i look forward to the day when only sex dolls are competing with sex dolls. i kind of expected that in a love doll forum but i understand in order to make everyone feel included those other non sex dolls are now in the cat B.
so only cat A is really a love doll photo contest. the cat. B might as well include barbie dolls and gumbie.
so i just think the whole point of the forum is missed.
just my on target opinion. sorry to those non sex dolls and mannequins and plushies .perhaps a cat 3 for NON love dolls?? next year perhaps. or take those into the Cat A. for a while. just to be fair.

give it all some real thought.
love you all, and your ladies. just know the B,cat love doll girls have a hard time competing with the perfection of mannequin art and such.they are so beautiful as are these miniature dolls.

respect to to all,
and this is all a lot of fun either way. thanks to all ho participate.

p.s ,i always advocated for a single all inclusive photo contest. less divisive. and only about a good photo . not doll types. , i love these winners by the way.

I understand your point of view, beardy, but to be perfectly honest, I wouldn't be here (i.e. even found this place!) if there wasn't a welcoming crossover of doll ownership.

Of course, the mannequins and miniature dolls aren't welcomed by the Cat A people either. Personally, I don't see the problem with having one big Photo Competition and placing as people see fit. However, I appreciate that it's a political thing at work here..... which always complicates matters.

The "purists" don't have to read the mini/mannequin/robot threads, and they can vote for whoever they want in the Photo Comps. If some people who are into the "proper" dolls also find their interest piqued by the less/more standard dolls then great, what's the harm in it?

The monthly Comp, just like the Forum itself, only supposed to be a bit of fun, after all.

Congrats to the winners and all the other fine entrants as well.

IMO cosycottage’s winning photo (which I voted for) had nothing to do with the type of doll but everything to do with imagination and creativity.

it is a lot of fun .i enjoy participating when i can. always will. love the brilliant work done by all this year. so inspired and of good intent even those controversial ones. all a pleasure ,to me. thanks . BG
