Appreciation thread: Mira and Mz Pip-April Contest

Much gratitude and thanks to Mira, for posting the prelims (and will be doing the finals) as I was unable to post the polls because I am not a Star member (not in the budget to do so )

All through this month, both Mira and Mz Pip have been PM'ing with me to support and guide me through hosting the April contest.
Their help, advice, and kindness has been above and beyond the call, and their positive responses to my gathering of submissions and how to keep track of all made this a simple and clear process.

So, please, Kudos and Appreciation to Mira and Mz Pip!
I want all of you here to know that without them, this month's contest would have been a mess in my hands.

Good luck to all! All of the entries are perfect for the Color Riot theme, and I want to thank you for getting the total of 30 entries in before my end date of 4/20.

Thanks to all of you!

I'm glad they were able to help you. I'm sorry a star wasn't in your budget ...

You did a wonderful job of keeping us informed and motivated. In about 2 and a half to 3 years this is only the second time we had 30 submissions!
I tried hard to buy you a star, but could not figure out how to do it. So I took a tranquilizer (LOL _ and a joke) and set to creating the threads.
It's good practice, it has been a while since I was on the hook for hosting.

Many thanks!
And so sweet of you to look into buying me a star. *gratitude*

Also, I did not know that this was one of few times in recent years that we didn't have 30 submissions!
To all who entered

..and all I can say is, I better not win again unless I have a star
