    Well, here's mine: http://www.frogforum.net/vivarium-te...rog-forum.html

    This thread about the new habitat for the Dendrobates azureus has everything: how to build a clay wall, a drainage layer, what plants to use and how to take care of them. Although it will be a draw, I'm really happy to submit it as it was a community effort! I will also re-write it and post is in a shorter version as a how-to.

    Well I think I'd like to submit mine too, even though I'm totally new to this. I like how this contest works, everyone has a chance! If it's ok, I'll submit my viv build/customization, finished yesterday. XD

    Here's the thread: http://www.frogforum.net/vivarium-te...viv-build.html

    The point of the contest is to get everyone to share. It does not matter how elaborate or extensive the build or project is. For some this may be their very first build. Getting those members to share may get them more invested in the forum here and hopefully expand the frog community in general. Someday we wont be going to "reptile shows" looking for frogs. The snake people will be going to "Amphibian shows" looking to find a random snake. Frogs are much more fascinating to keep and eventually the world will see it one terrarium at a time.

    Your posts are always so inspiring Cheri, I'm really glad you started this contest. ^ ^ It's nice to know that even I have a chance at winning, and everyone else who decides to submit their projects, too.

    I can't WAIT until there are "amphibian shows" out there and especially some closer to home. It's so hard to find good places to buy and sell healthy, captive bred frogs, especially out here in so cal. I hope one day I'll be able to go to the Anaheim convention center and see some awesome Amphibians. XD

    Oh yeah I totally forgot about Frog Day! That would be so much fun I wish I could go, but I don't have the money for a plane ticket for me and a friend to go unfortunately, or I'd be there! I've never been to New York, but I think it's something every Californian dreams of. XD Thanks for the offer Cheri but I don't think I can afford it.

    Not that I've seen, and something like that would be really helpful for those members who like to take lots of pictures (cough cough...>>). It would be cool to see something like that and I think it would be perfect for this contest, as long as it had a step by step process and was informative, as the name suggests. Someone should do one!

    Vic I think that would be a great idea. Is that something that you feel you could do? Remember not everyone is into advanced photography so it would be great if you could make it for the newbies and for those that have more advanced camera skills.
