Director's Note to Contestants Hello to All!   Well to my wonderful 2002 State Queens, let me first say that it has been my pleasure to have "met" each one of you. You are all wonderful women whom have made this year's pageant the best one yet (though I wish there were more of you!). Let me stress how much I appreciate your support of both myself and the Ms. Picture Perfect US Pageant.   This year's panel consisted of 4 judges whom are all involved in the pageant industry in one form or another (1 directs an online pageant, 1 directs live pageant, 1 is a pageant coach, and 1 is an attire consultant). All of these judges have had prior experience judging competitions. 3 of these judges had never heard of or seen any of the contestants prior to judging the competition. I am proud of the job they have done and thank them again for volunteering their time during the busy Holiday Season to contribute to this pageant. Their effort is greatly appreciated by both the contestants and myself. I know they had a tough decision as I myself had a hard time choosing the winners of the Director's Awards.     Earlier this month I made a video featuring all of the contestants and former National Queen from this pageant in .ram format. The movie recieved positive feedback from all the contestants and many site visitors that I have decided to present the Winner's Tour in a .ram movie format as well as my traditional "page-turning"style. I suggest if you have a "Real Player" installed in your computer to view the Tour in the Movie format...it is fun if I do say so myself! I believe in the future that I will continue this and offer both types of Tours.  Again, thank you to my beautiful contestants and Good Luck to all of you. I wish I could give each of you a title and crown because you are all so deserving and I would be proud to call any one of you Ms. Picture Perfect. You have all behaved and treated each other with warmth, respect and class- in my eyes you truely define the word "Lady" in every respect.  On the final page of the tour contestants will find a place where they can login and retrieve their scores, and since you are all a winner or member of the court all scores will be posted. This is a protected page and you will not be able to enter it without utilizing the "Username" and Password which will be sent to you via email.  Now with out further delay, scroll to the bottom and continue the Tour! My Best, Debbie- Picture Perfect Director
