Man I'm always playin' catch up lol ..
I was asked to be a judge for that contest for another category other than design .. so I did ... but I had NO IDEA I had even been nominated for something until someone sent me the actual link to that site .. then a day later I was sent an email notice and a link button. So I'm just going along working day to day with no clue I was even up there lol.
As far as I'm concerned Todd's guys do just as good of work as anyone else listed there, if not better ;-)) I honesty can not see why they would not have been nominated.
Heck, I'm just ONE LITTLE GUY in the whole adult industry, as long as I can generate enough work to keep ME busy than thats all I really worry about. Being '#1' at anything was never of any concern to me personally.
