Ok, before we get to the good stuff, I have to say something here. You would *not* believe how close this competition was! I'm quite serious, the difference between 'first place' and FIFTH was a matter of two or three votes. SO - please don't assume that because you didn't 'win', your doll was awful, if we'd had three more people vote, I have no IDEA who the winners would end up being! Also, and as long as I'm babbling - If I'd used straight judges votes, the winners would bear no relation to the ones below, for example... the judges repaint winner didn't even place after the popular votes were tallied in!In my opinion, everyone who entered - WON!
