I posted this before but it didn't get through moderatin for some reason: I ALWAYS use at least 4 judges from different regions of the country. I use 5 or 6 when I can get that many so I can drop the high score and low score. It's difficult when you don't want judges who know all the kids. Please don't assume that ALL contests are in it for themselves. I've been open for over a year and have only made a profit 2 months and it wasn't enough to get excited about. -- Air it ALL

I have been a pc judge for over a year and I disagree that pc judges are not qualified. I am a former photographer(not pageant), I have also judged local and state level pageants. Yes I am a pageant mom, but who else thinks that they can pick a perfect winner everytime other than a pageant mom!! I have never used any of thephotographers for my dd photo, so I don't know any of the photographers work. Anyway the person who should win the award on most of the pics is the touch up person. Nowadays the computer enhancer does the real work and makes your dd look as "beautiful" as she does. (NT) -- angie, 06:26:08 09/26/04 Sun (cdm-66-233-21-197.eldr.cox-internet.com/66.233.21.197)
