We Are One - are you in?

            You may know that most grids like to celebrate their anniversary, and you also know that lots of grids don't stick around very long. So for an opensim grid to be celebrating seven years of existence is really something!
        Craft, the 'Friendly Grid', has its 7th anniversary coming up at the end of January.

        Every year, they hold a building competition. Perhaps in past years, you've attended the anniversary party, even admired the winning entries to the building competition. The first prize is a free region for a year.  Second place gets a 10k prim region for a year... which to my mind is just as good.
       Wowee, you may say, lucky Craftians... but did you realize that anyone from any grid can take part, and win that prize?
        Yes, you too can compete in the Craft competition!         
             The theme is 'We Are One' - a great hypergrid concept, you'll agree.
            The deadline for entries is January 21, and you need to contact either Licu Rau or Tao Quan on Craft, so they know you're participating.
            If you want to get a feel for the kind of 3d creations that have had success in the past, go over to craft-world.org:8002:suq to see previous winning items... here are a few photos to give you an idea, but go over and explore, some are interactive.
          Here is some more of the information but  you should go to the Craft Building competition web page to learn more
