congratulations and thanks to everyone who entered, and especially to Calvin at Illumn for the prize. There was some interesting creations. I dont know about anyone else but I find things like Nebulae and quasars etc astounding things to ponder.

……
Apparently I talk too much, and yet say very little. In my short time here Ive already come close to 1000 posts and I hear its tradition to do a giveaway. Who am I to buck tradition? Im thinking I might try to end this comp on my 1000th post rather than announce it at 1000 posts, whenever that will be (a week it seems).

….
Prize
Illumn (IS) has some good prices on the Armytek Tiara and theres been some chatter about them so Im thinking that might make for a nice giveaway. Winner can choose, NW or CW, and A1 or C1. You can probably pick silver or black bezel too.

It will come with one Olight li ion of the appropriate size.

1 Armytek Tiara C1 CW/NW plus 1 Olight 16340 750mAh Protected Button Top battery OR
1 Armytek Tiara A1 CW/NW plus 1 Olight 14500 750mAh Protected Button Top battery

IMPORTANT CHANGE TO THIS GIVEAWAY.
Calvin from Illumn (Illumination Supply) has told me he is going to sponsor this entire giveaway. Sometimes people leave me speechless, this is one of those times. Many thanks Calvin, youve made my day mate.

….
Challenges seem to be common with these things too?? Hmmmm… OK, I recently found a website where you design your own Nebula so Ill add that link and please post your creation, it has a share option that uploads to imgur and then you post that link as an image here …but a screen shot or similar will do fine if you dont like imgur. But there is no requirement to post anything (except a post of course), I enjoyed the process for several minutes, maybe you will too and maybe some will enjoy looking at what you create. In the end I will use the random post selector/number generator when I find it to select the winner.

Post your Nebula

The imgur link should be the 4th one down once it uploads, copy and paste that link here, then remove the and replace them with ! at start and finish. The image will now show in your posts.
It should look something like this:

1 entry per person.
Additional entries will disqualify you, but you can edit your 1 post if you like.
Must have been a member since June 1 and have 5 meaningful posts.

I reserve the right to alter conditions as the need arises, but I dont envisage that need.


Thanks peeps for the insane site with insane people doing insane things, sometimes with torches. Enjoy the giveaway, as I probably wont do another one.

:crown:

I’ll be the first. Number 1 never wins.


Nice site!
Thanks for the GA!

I can’t understand head nor tail of the nebula site, but here’s my favourite nebula - the Crab Nebula. :slight_smile:

Thanks for the giveaway, Ejected Filament!

Thanks for the giveaway! :party: Fun site too! :bigsmile:

i played a little bit with it, didn’t get any great results from the time spent though.

i’m in!

well, this was relaxing and nice :slight_smile:

Cannot post a nebula from the ipad… But I am in for a tiara?

Awesome! A tiara I might actually be able to pull off!

Thanks Ejected Filament and Calvin!

I’ll post a Nebula if I get one to come out as good as bushwacked.

Anyone have tips or techniques for Nebula design?


The app is kind of buggy on my Chrome. Got crashed on first attempt.

I could never do justice to the pics I see on the NASA site.
But, please count me in EF, and thank you.

Woohoo! Just googled the light. It’s a headlamp.
My H6 just died.
This is a sign, indeed a shaft of light beckoning.

(I could save you some postage - Qld too :wink: )

this… thissss THISSS… THIS IS FUN!

looked MUCH better on the website. hmmm.

I can't get it to work for me but please, count me in

Congratz on the almost 1000 posts!

I’m in.
Fun site to play with.

Nice idea :slight_smile: Thanks for the giveaway :wink: Heres mine:

Edit: Looking at everyone elses, mine appears pretty ordinary :_(

Here’s another post with no nebula. Count me in!

I also tried to write blf….

Thanks for the givaway, and great link, had some fun, and will have more :bigsmile:
Stuck the image into Gimp and added some glow and stars.

Cheers David
