We have been very busy. I guess I never realize how many hair designers there are on Second Life when you add them all up. I am sure we missed a few but we tried our hardest to make the most complete list we could. Laynie was having computer troubles so I sent out 136 notecards to hair designers tonight with their nomination ballots. Designers, please, if we missed you or your nomination ballot accidentally ended up in the circular file, let us know and we will send you on a new one.
