Thanks Chris. I did actually know what it was, as it was recently explained somewhere on one of the forums. I only knew it as 'stacking' (without the software) so thought you were doing something different.

Good luck everyone!

No, nothing different Reinardina, just using the software to do it.

It's more than my life is worth................

Still thinking up something....great entries so far though, some I'd never even think of..

Well tomorrow is the day I put another notch on the bedpost of life (I'll be 31).......so no doubt there'll be plenty opportunity for chaos, whether I'll be in a fit state to take advantage of it is another thing altogether!..

How much is happening in your life Matthew....there'salways a celebration! You life itself is chaotic.

If anyone's thinking "oh no, I was going to use the letters of CHAOS for my shot, but someone else has done it now" then just do it anyway! I've never thought there was a problem in people doing the same/similar shots and wouldn't worry if there were 15 entries all the same - they'd all have something that made them unique.

Looking forward to seeing what you all come up with.:-)
