Monkeys?
I dont think hiring some one to bad mouth the activites that your web site supported is a good idea. It wont draw too many people in. I give that man a F for failing to be positive. The contest is rocky and lots of people are bitching but its still going and it is still something that is being taken serious by some of our strongest artists.
I have a feeling some one who was booted off the contest as either a judge or artist had a part in that essay. Im sick of bad news in the worlds papper and now I have to read bad news here....it just gets old.
