Update on the Latest GritFX Competition Winner...

On the 2nd of March, Wayne John was announced as the winner of "Guess the Number of Jelly Beans in the Jar" competition with a guess of 834 - one off the exact number! Wayne has since selected his prize and has posted a contest thankyou video which we'd like to share with you all.

Visit Blogger Help and Assistance to read Wayne's post.

And here is an embedded video file:


Wayne chose the "Agent Provocateur" design.

Note: At one point in the video, Wayne pulls out the Cafepress flyer... to be clear, Cafepress are just a Print-On-Demand (POD) supplier we (GritFX) use for our Mother Store* which offers all of our designs on various shirts.

Our Sister Store is operated through another POD - Zazzle - and has a selection of designs available on a retro apparel range.

There's a love-hate relationship here... any POD we use profits from any one of our shirt sales, yet we wouldn't be able to offer what we do without them! Our long term goal is to have complete control and do our own screen printing.

* UPDATE: GritFX have since re-evaluated our relationship with Cafepress and no longer use them as our primary print-on-demand supplier.

ONCE AGAIN, THANK YOU TO ALL OUR COMPETITION PARTICIPANTS.

Floods are fun for some...

"Floods are fun for some" is this weeks "Camera Critters" post. If you want to participate, click on the image above.

I took this image after the massive floods that we had during Australia's long weekend in June 2007. The lake edge is where I once rode my bike as a youngster. On an ordinary day, the shoreline would usually be approximately 50 feet past the tree line, and where you see the birds playing is where the bike track is.

The mood in the area was sombre and residents were shocked by what they saw. One small thing that broke that mood for me, was watching these birds have the time of their lives!

I took a few photos that afternoon, and this was my pick for "Camera Critters".... the break in the water surface is partly the reason for the selection.
