Second...Rules!

1. No store bought costumes!
2. Take a picture of you in the costume and post it in this thread.

We look forward to seeing your entries! Good luck!

Can we sticky this? I don't like the fact that it's slipping slowly towards the black hole of the second page. Confused

Thanks for the sticky, Grif.

I think within the next two weeks we need to get all the judges together so we can work out a few things.

(This is Sgt. Salt bringing you two custom Halloween costumes.)

Here Snoink is, profilin' as a rejected member of the Police (on the basis of her Piggy tie no less!). Cool





Here I am sporting a 'fro, being a roll bouncer from the '70s. (Not exactly sure what that means, but it was fun anyway!)



The costumes weren't store bought, but we did buy the mullet and afro wig. Everything else was clothes swapping between sisters and putting together a costume from what we already had.

"!" Snoink exclaimed!
