Hi Mrs.Varma, the contest rangolis are not published yet, since the deadline is still a few days away. We'll publish the entries right here in this site after a week, and you should be able to vote then. :) Nithya, I do see your pink rangoli. :)

Hi Ms.Shalini_Srivastava, I see four rangolis uploaded in your name, and I can't tell which one is for the contest (it doesn't specify so in any of the four files). I would request you to upload the one meant for the contest again with the word “contest” mentioned somewhere in the file (either the title or the description). Hello Ms.Umanagarajan, the voting for the Marapachi contest got over before the Diwali season commenced. Ms. Anu, we only disqualify entries which are NOT drawn by the participant (and also the ones copied from other sites). :) This site is all about learning from the entries already posted/drawn by others, and also about sharing your own designs and your versions of others' designs as well. At ikolam, members feel happy when someone gets inspired by what they had drawn and posts it back into the site for all to enjoy. :)

Hi Marees, I don't see any rangoli uploaded with your name, so I guess you need to try again. Dr.Rekha Shetty, yes Krishanaji made it here safely. The couple will give darshan in a few days, along with others entries. :)

Hi Sunvathi, you've uploaded a collage of 3 rangolis, reduced in size. Please try to upload just one bigger rangoli for the contest. The other two can be uploaded as regular uploads. :) Dear Agilas, you'll be able to view your rangoli when it is published on the 15th. I think I should let you know that part of your rangoli appears cut off at the top. Feel free to upload a complete copy of the rangoli. The Dusshera rangoli image is very small. :) Dear Marees and Umanagarajan, I don't see any uploads in your names, in the queue. Please try again.

Hi Soumya, I think the image didn't get attached. Be sure to click on the "attach" button after you select your rangoli image. And then "submit".

Hello Lata, Can we upload rangoli done on floor in other medium (like poster colors, flowers) too? Or is the contest only for rangoli done in powder only? Pls clarify. Thks.

Dear Marees, don't worry. Your image did not get uploaded so just send it to me as an attachment with an email. Please just call me Lata (not madam) :) Hi Jyotsna, voting begins on Nov 15th (that's the day all the entries get published). Hello Kitsfin, long time no see. :) I'm not sure of what to say to you regarding including rangolis done using poster colors. In the past, a couple of our members had uploaded images that looked more or less like paintings hung on the wall (with frames removed). They could've been done sometime earlier, not exactly during the festival of Diwali. I guess we need to take a look at the work before we accept. Flowers are okay in rangolis. But, we do want to avoid the following mediums; software, embroidery materials, and paint (permanent painted rangolis). Go ahead and upload your rangoli. It does sound like a fresh “Diwali rangoli” to me. :)

Rani Is it you submitting kolam for contest? So Nice to hear, that you are into the contest overcoming your fearness. Don't worry as usual I'll be there for commenting (Guess I'm the only person spending time in others page rather in my own gallery he heee..) and voting.

Hi Umanagarajan, please try to upload again, since it didn't make it. Don't forget to click on "attach" after you select your image. And then click on "submit". The newcomers/new participants often forget to click on "attach" when trying to submit. :)

Hi Rani, Etharkku peyar thaan Vanjaga Pugazhichiya..(I'm not sure how to put it in English, it means, Rani is trying to praise me on the other hand trying to tease) Hi Marees, Good news pa.. All the best..

Oh no vinci dear....GOD PROMISE ...I am laying my hand on my head ...really...i mean it very seriously...one has to be so broadminded to just keep on commenting and commenting ...even i felt ashamed of myself when i was new to this site and enjoying other's work but didn't have d thought of wishing them just like uma, pragaya, sadana and sudha mam ...and many members.recently do on my kolams...thats what i meant...

Hello Rani, What is this? I expected a lighter comment but this is too sentimental he hee.. You should have quoted with my words "O Vinci is this called Vanjaga Pugazhchiya, Glad I learnt something today" Enjoy...

It is kind of late to upload for the contest. :) You could use the "Upload", "Upload rangoli" tabs from the top menu to upload your rangoli.
