G'day Andy...

I'm glad to hear that you are excited about your winter silhouette contest.

First, let me state that I don't have a winter silhouette in my collection that
would be worthy of this competition...so, no axe to grind.

Onward...my humble opinion follows...

I think it inappropriate to use IBC as a platform to advertise a contest that
is limited to BTO subscribers (or did I miss something?). I believe that there
are 490 something subscribers to the IBC list, and who knows how many others
using it, fewer than half (my guess) of whom subscribe to BTO. If the contest
is limited to BTO subscribers, why not advertise in BTO? I know...new
subscribers...

There's just something that rubs me the wrong way...

End of opinion...

What I, a non-subscriber (see note below), have seen of BTO I think is very
well done, and I wish that I could subscribe... and, which ever way it goes, I
wish you well with the contest.

Have a good day...and contest.

Pat

NOTE: Non-subscriber (BTO), retired, limited income...and, I just choose to use
my limited excess resources elsewhere.
