Mine is being prepared for this contest. I don't have a photo in time for the deadline, hope a sketch layout will do.
 
you still have 9 days are you sure you can't borrow a cam from a friend? as for mine i am finishing the documentation today and should be done by end of day.
 
How come I only see this now, a week before it ends? :\ I look forward to a more digitally driven contest though, I would love to be involved in that.
