The stuffing machine class was interesting,

The high triple teddy design was very eye catching,

Off to re-size the last of the pictures to put on later. I have to say that just looking at the pictures does not do the designs, sculptures and event justice.
You have to be there to smell the latex so to speak.

I sooo agree with that quote Graham.... but its a great second best for those of us that could not go to the event for whatever reason.... and I have to say for those that did not think it was for them your pictures and comments have to be a fantastic insight for them when making a decision next time....

I know people work with balloons fro a wide variety of reasons and ways, from it being a hobby to a job to a life style and it all makes a difference to the perception of any event, what ever its size... BUT if you want to be WOWED big time, Qualatex always know how to take these events and throw a party to remember..

Thanks for giving us an glimpse of what we missed (it was unfortunate on the date for us)... next time we hope to join the fun....

These are from a Sue Bowler class,

The last two pictures from the event,

So it's now competition time, I have at least two prizes and all you have to do is make something from any of the pictures I have put on the forum from the event. It does not have to match exactly, a variation or you had an idea from one of the pictures. You have a fortnight from today to enter, all entries will be put into a hat and the winner pulled out, that is if more than one person enters. You can enter as many times as you like, so if you put up 3 pictures your name will go into the hat 3 times. Good luck.

I have two delegate bags full of goodies to win, perhaps one will be Neil's who was unable to make the event.

Quote from: "Graham Lee"If anyone would like to use any of the pictures I have taken or any quote from the forum could you please ask me first as in 99.999999% I'm sure I will agree.
Perhaps I'm from the old school but I just think its polite and courteous  

At the event Graham, I heard a few times mentioned that they didn't want any of the photos uploaded to the likes of Facebook etc without permission from Qualatex. I didn't want to upload any pics just in case. What's the normal procedure regards this? I would love to put some photos on my Facebook to show the quality of what was there.

I thought it was just the step by step instructions no on wanted putting on to facebook. Some people had there camera's set to take a picture every 10 secs.

Oh, maybe, I'm not sure what their rules are  :?:

I was under the same impression as Graham -  reason I have not posted pics on my web site or Face Book -  Maybe we can post pics of our sculpture and just general pics.

Graham has always posted pics on this site for the qualatex events he goes to....

But I too was under the impression that at all qualatex events they had stopped people posting pictures before the Images mag was produced - otherwise they would have no news to show..

But pictures and inflormation are being uploaded onto the qualatex facebook page as well as other pages and websites...

I think you are always allowed to post pictures of your own Sculpture Debbie... easiest thing is to phone them and check

I will have to check with her Agency as she is a little Star Struck at the moment,  all the camera flashes have gone straight to her head -  Little Diva she is now.....

I will post on some photos of my one so everyone can see what we did -  as I said I think we came 4th as we did not come `1st, 2nd or 3rd.....   lol -   we enjoyed ourselves and learnt a lot for maybe next time........  it was a huge learning curve that was well beyond my comfort zone and I hope that I have taken some positive things from it for the future.

Ok I will start the ball rolling with pictures inspired by the ones Graham has posted....
