LOL, GP is right about how tough it is. I think most of us know it's more about sharing in the community and honing your skills. Nothing does that like running with the big dogs. I hadn't realized how many times GP had entered, I think you tend to forget about that when you see all those Gold Medals.

I still get excitted by participating in the challenges. To me that's good because it keeps you jumping back into the ring until you are creating what you want to create.

I really should go back and redo one of my old maps just to have the side by side comparison to show how much I've improved from doing these.

I'm going to post some lesson's I've learned from Challenges but I'll do it in the main thread so as not to derail your WIP thread here.
