Hi everyone!! :wave:

What a great first week we had!! Take a look at the video to see the entries from week one and who got eliminated.
YouTube - Talk Budgies Next Top Model - Week 1 Results

If you can't view the video, read on to see who got eliminated. ;)

--------------------------
So, this contest would not be a contest without our three fantastic judges! I shall introduce them again:

clifff123!! :D
Budgiekin!! :D
aka.pody!! :D

And of course, if one of these judges cannot judge for one of the weeks, our guest judge Dave will step in. ;)
--------------------------

Let's have another refresher of the rules. :)

Rules:

Each new challenge will be posted early Sunday morning in the Western Hemisphere. For those in the Eastern Hemisphere, you will likely see the new thread Sunday midday or Sunday night. Contestants will have four (4) days to enter a photo. So, the deadline for entering a photo for the challenges will be Wednesday night at 9pm EST (people in different time zones will have to figure out what time that is in your time zone, you can use this site (http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html) to convert the time to your time zone. ;)).

Then, the judges will deliberate for the rest of the week (Thursday Friday Saturday) and the results and new challenges will be posted the following Sunday.

The DIVA card: So basically, if your Budgie is not co-operating with you for the challenge and you don't know what to do, you can use your DIVA card. This season's DIVA card has not been chosen yet, so it will be announced on the day of the first challenge.

Rules for the DIVA card:
It can only be used ONCE during the entire competition so use it only when you really have to!

The DIVA card can be used for any round except the final.
So, the DIVA card for this season will be:
Sleepy Bird!


Also, please try to enter a recent picture, preferably one that has been taken during this competition, for this competition. ;)
---------------------

Alright, so before I announce our next challenge, I suppose I should perform the sad task of announcing who was eliminated this week. So, today we say goodbye to......






Izzie. :( :(

Sorry Izzie to see you go so early! Don't forget you can play along in the play along thread if you wish. :D
---------------------

So now, let's take a look at the next challenge, shall we?? :eek:

So, for week two, the challenge will be:


Bon Appetit!!

So this should be a good challenge. There are a few options you can do for this challenge. You could have a picture of your bird dining at a fancy restaurant. Or you could have your bird pigging out on its favourite food. Don't forget to add lots of interaction with the picture!!

The deadline will be Wednesday, March 2nd, 2011 at 9pm EST!!

Well that's about it for what I have to say. Week 1 was a great week, so let's make this week even better. Can't wait to see the entries!!! :D

Good luck! :thumbsup:

Quito will enjoy this one! Just yesterday I caught him "clearing the table" aka dragging his plate of sprouts off the table and over the edge. It's amazing the mischief that one little budgie beak can cause!:)

Not sure if this has been brought up already, but are we going to have it like last year where the judges post a small 'critique' of our photo? :) That was helpful!

Loving these entries so far. Keep it up!! :D

I think we decided against that for this year. Last year it took too long for the critiques to come in, and the critiques seemed to cause very minor disputes too. Sorry!

We will have our finale round when there are three birds left. We still haven't decided on a prize yet. We'll be sure to let you know the prize when we figure that out. ;)
