kljsdf Sorry for the delay; it's gonna be one of those days. Last challenge! Since Astro gives you guys the awesome, manly, dark images, I figured I should balance that out by choosing girly, cutesy pictures. Nothing too easy I hope! Please tell me if you need the images uploaded elsewhere. Best of luck to the finalists!

I get the feeling that the finalists are going to hate me after this round.
As a quick note, we'll have sign-ups for round 13 in two to three weeks. We want to wait a little while because so many of you signed up for animanlims, and we know how stressful it can be to be in more than one LIMS at a time.
