    --------->Mon Nov 9 19:08:04 2009
    ---------> * A Light in the Darkness: Elfwood Christmas art contest
    It would be hard to imagine there not being a Christmas- themed art contest this time of year, so we decided to run one in parallel with the writing contest. The challenge for this contest is to create a Christmas-themed image that best captures the spirit of the season: the coming of an unconquerable light which can be glimpsed both in the dance of the stars and a warm smile of a friend, in exchange of gifts, in a warm fireplace and plenitude of the feast during the darkest days of the year, all part of the vision that winter and all the death that we see in nature, will not last forever.

    Competition closes on 31 December 2009 [last entries must be handed in before 00:00 [GMT] 1 Jan 2010].
