If you would like a list of the wins my daughter has had in the past few months please email me directly. She has won or placed or been an optional winner in MANY contests since she got her new pictures. We are very pleased with the new photos and apparently the judges have been too. She has won supreme or division or optional titles in "The", Darling Images, Most Beautiful Faces, Starquest, Dolls For Dolls, Rainbow, Supermodels, etc. We entered Keri's contests BEFORE she joined the Real Deal. If you don't like the pictures then fine but she has won alot with them recently and we are very happy and her wins have nothing to do with Keri. THANK YOU TONI OVERBY for the beautiful new pictures and thank you to all the photo contest directors we have had the pleasure of being part of!

I agree, the problem this person has is with ME, LEAVE the children OUT OF IT! They are ALL beautiful, and ANY of them could win at anytime, your comment was totally uncalled for.

The other day on bravo there was some discussion about directors misleading future contestants by advertising "low entries", so I thought I would voice my opinion on this.
Low entries isn't a certain number. It's a certain number per a certain photo contest. To me, low entries is any number under the number of entries needed for a director to break even. Because without reaching a certain number they will lose money, therefore I think they can advertise "low entries".
If a contest awards $250 cash and costs $10, then to me low entries is under 25 contestants. If they award $500 cash and charge $25, then low entries is under 20 contestants and so on.
I don't think it's fair to call directors dishonest because they advertise low entries and end up with alot of contestants. Anyone who runs a contest or enters alot of photo contests knows that most contestants wait until the last day or two enter. I'm not quite sure why most enter at the last minute, but they do (even in those contests that don't show contestants until after the deadline).
I guess, what I wanted to say was to those who think directors falsy advertise by saying "low entries" to look at how much cash they pay out and what they charge and to figure where they break even, entries below that number can fairly be considered "low entries".
