THANKS Muppetperson. I posted this in another thread:

Hey folks!

Please take time to sign up for this message board and vote for the Memphis part of Kermit's trip. We (Lin, Antone, Janet, and I) spent a LOT of time and effort to create some great photos of Kermit and his trip to Memphis! Plus, of everywhere he went, we were the only group who took him home to Leland, MS! The winner wins Kermit the Frog and all the goodies he got from all the places he went on his trip!

So, please go here and vote for Memphis!

And if you don't remember the pictures, please visit this part of my website:

Toronto was some tough competition for sure!

Ah, now I remember you talking about it Kevin. I must have missed it at the time though; did he ever come to New York?

Good luck Kev, Memphis is in the lead!

Wheee!

Thanks folks!

The list is on the Master Replicas' link I provided above, Fraggle Muppet. New York is fourth from the bottom of the list.

Over in the Authentic Kermit Replica thread I posted some posing suggestions to get a good Kermit look to him that I discovered as we posed and played with him. You'll notice how much better he looks at the end of our photos than at the very beginning. Thinking like a puppeteer helped, because we had to figure how to get the poser to look like he'd been posing with a hand and arm in him.

Lin, Antone, Janet and I are all excited about the voting so far. The hard work has been appreciated!

You know... Would probably be more enthused or decided as to which to vote for if someone would/could help in talking about the photos from any of the entries. Heck, break down the pics by city, post all them descripts in a row, and then go for the next city. Would be a bit of work fer sure, but at least it'd benefit those of us out of da' loop on this.
*Still slightly upset I didn't know about this tour, that there'd be a stop in my own PR backyard, and that I didn't get in on it.
*Hopes for a World Tour for any of their other Muppet posers and to be alerted should it happen to get in on the action.

I can't help with the others, but if you click on the link to the Muley forums in my post above, one of the links will take you to the youtube.com videos where you can enlarge the photo montage video to fit the whole screen. Might that help any?

Here are the links:

Thanks Kev. Clicked on the Kermit goes to Leland link, got musical clips. Though I can guess why the song "Gone Fishin'" was included, it seems a bit out of place as the other songs have the connection of Jim characters going for them. Wish you luck with winning... Maybe there'll be an MR Animal World Tour later in the year.

You can see all kermit's Visits on the Kermit's world tour link on the MR homepage.

Thanks. Problem is, due to my visual impediment, photos don't really do much for me unless someone takes the time to describe or talk them through. Maybe this explains a little more as to why I asked for the help with these. But no worries, I'm confident Kev will win. After all, what'd be a more natural pair of friends together again than a frog and a bear?
