I Need Some Cheffer Help to Win a Contest.

In summary, a local pottery painting place is holding a Halloween contest and the winner gets a free year of studio fees. There are six contenders for the contest, but the winner is determined by votes cast on a Facebook album. One of the contenders, who is neck-and-neck with another woman, has gotten her friends to vote for her instead of supporting the other woman's pumpkin. If you have a few minutes, I would greatly appreciate your help.

I usually never ask for this kind of stuff but I hope you can help me out. This is a local pottery painting place and I've painted a pumpkin for their Halloween contest. The winner wins a years' worth of free studio fees (normally $8 per session). I am kinda neck and neck with another gal but it looks like she's getting a zillion friends to come vote for hers, so I need the power of ChefferLove to come help me out.

It's a Facebook contest, so you need to have an FB account. It's specific to vote, so here is what you need to do:

1) Click here to go to their FB fan page: Color Me Mine Elk Grove | Facebook

2) Click "like" at the top to fan the business (you can unlike when you're done voting).

3) There is an album called "Pumpkin Contest 2010" - here is the direct link: Welcome to Facebook

4) Vote for #1 - that's me! - by clicking on the photo to go into the photo and then click "like" on that photo. (it's the multi-colored patchwork pumpkin)

5) You can "unlike" when you're done voting. The vote will still count and then you don't need to get their marketing feed.

#6 is my main competition and I'm determined to beat her. She's gotten her friends to go fawn over her pumpkin and I think mine is more creative, hehe.

If you have a few minutes, I'd greatly appreciate your help. I've posted it to my wall a few times but my friends keep "liking" my wall post instead of going to the photo and liking the photo... the store won't care if people like my wall post! I need votes on the photo :) You guys rock - thanks in advance for your help!

Thanks! You are all so sweet! I am not really very artistic when it comes to freehanding stuff like this. I was going for a Romero Britto-inspired look but I am obviously far from...The only problem is that the contest runs up until Halloween, so I won't get to display my pumpkin at home or work till next year! Maybe I'll go make something for Thanksgiving...

Voted. You're definitely ahead now. I have to admit, I really like #7 and #8, too, and am sad they don't have any "Like"s.
