DMBLGIT June 07 Edition: And the Winners Are… — Et les gagnants sont…

You waited patiently, now here come the results to the DMBLGIT June 2007 Edition!

There were three main categories: Edibility, Originality and Aesthetics, an Overall Winner Category, and a total of 116 entries. We were 6 people to judge (Matt, Aun, Jules, Stretch, Fred and myself). I would like to extend a special thanks to my great team of judges, for the effort and time spent scoring every one of these great pictures. Merci ! You did a great job!

And so, because there were so many entries, I thought that instead of only giving out the first three winners, I would also include the list of the Ten Leading Pictures. A big thank you, merci, to all of you for participating.

  10. Oh, they’re all so gorgeous! What a difficult time for the judges…

    On an administrative note; Were there badges that I missed for the May edition?

  11. Anita, as to the badges, you probably should check with the person who hosted the May edition (I already forgot!). He or she should be able to let you know.

  12. Congrats to all…

    and a little comment – the link to Johanna, of Passionate Cook, is not working for me… might be a good idea to check if there is a problem with the entry
