Hi Christine,
What cool shoes! Thanks for posting this. I went to the site and voted. Can you post a couple of the kids' shoe designs here? (I tried but I am terrible at photoshop or whatever.) They are excellent. We have very talented students and teachers. If they are this good already, they have won already, but the 50 thousand would be nice.
