Author gypsykate says: dear friends, i know we all vote differently in challenges. i usually help ensure a bigger lead for my favorites by voting 10, 7 and 5. in YOUR PAGE IN YOUR COLORS challenge, however, i find all pages so creative, i voted 10 for my first seven faves; 9 for the next five and 8 for all the rest. uniqueness and creativity with colors plus of course overall aesthetic appeal and impact were my criteria. though it was difficult, i decided on the challenge owner's choice because i find it the most unique and creative in photo and layout plus it had a powerful message. thank you all for joining, viewing and voting. hugs - kate Oct 20, 2007
