Are votes anomous? Yea cant spell. Rough evening.

What is the name of the animal in 49? Triassic baskers. Again sorry cant spell.

Yep, all anonymous.

The animals in 49 are Henodus and Placodus.

Thanks. Btw bought a henodus. :)
Walking With Monsers:
[about Lystrosaurus] Astonishingly, their vast herds make up more than half of all life on Earth. Never again will a single species do so well.

Walking With Monsters: (Hynerpeton) To avoid injury the males demonstrate their strength  in a strange  push up contest.


amargasaurus cazaui

Mine was an honest sincere question. I dont collect Papo so I did not recognize the model. I would say if anything my question would seem a compliment to the creator of the picture....but certainly nothing negative intended.

I feel awful. I accidentally submitted fewer than eight votes!

Did you accidentally click submit, or just get it wrong? :-\

I accidentally clicked submit.

My Vote has been cast!  First, interesting and great submissions by everyone.  Second, the last of the 8 votes, was the hardest to vote for!  Third, Not voting for your own submission with the last pick was hard to do.  Forth, let's hear it for the ad-min for putting on this awesome contest.  So now begins the long month of waiting to see which diorama wins!

I may not like feathered dinosaurs and stumpy legged Spinosaurs, but I will keep those opinions to myself, I will not start a debate over it, I promise. 😇

amargasaurus cazaui

Day two examining the entries is always fun for me, i see things I missed the first day. I just hope my entry at least wins 59th place !!

amargasaurus cazaui

I counted at least five pictures with Spinosaurus or about 8.5 percent of the entries, in spite of all the recent upheaval about the dinosaur......kinda surprising. I wondered if the recent findings would slow down the amount of entries for it, but apparently not so much

It's a guess, but I would figure many people had their dioramas done before the current upheaval on Spinosaurus.

How big dose the pic size need to be? ???

If you mean for the diorama contest then :Entries should be submitted as a .jpg file 1000px wide.

Well it was a difficult process but I managed narrow things down and cast my votes. And yeah, I may have voted for myself but it might be the only vote I get so I don't feel too bad about it.

Haven't voted for myself, no matter how many votes I'll get. IMO there are too many good entrys and It won't be fair to vote for myself. Great effort put in by all the contestants. It's a shame also there are no paleontologists judging this year.

Megalosaurus

I vote for my entry and for other 7 great ones. This way I ensure to have al least 1 vote  :'( .

Perhaps is because in a forum all members "read" not "listen".  ^-^    just jocking.

1000px wide if horizontal. 1000px tall if vertical. [Edit: lol You have that answer already]

The contest is an annual event. So we must wait a whole year before the next one. Meanwhile you can experiment some diorama ideas, take some shoots, and finally prepare your own Diorama Entry for the next year's contest.
The answers to all your questions were already given in the following threads:
