I've put a picture up of my entry on my profile, Iggle in a patchwork poncho and blanket made up of cut up pieces of my dd's colourings.
dd has received what looks like a soft toy and dvd which I'm sure she'll be excited by ! Should we also still receive an In the Night Garden goody bag ?
We received ours today: a dvd and a Tombliboo soft toy! Thanks mumsnet and BBC/ITNG

Yes, I agree , Andrews comments are lovely and it was a lovely drawing and so appropraite for Iggle, mega well done Liz's dd and the bidders and the other runners up. I too have won a runners up prize and really hope the goody bag arrives before Christmas.
That is fab! Your DD must be so proud of herself

here I love Andrew Davenport's comments!
Where can you see it on ebay?
Fantasic - your daughter must be so chuffed! I'll be patient then.

Take Care

No nothing yet, except lovely emails from bbc confirming the design and they've promised a pic of the finished look !!
Congratulations again LizS

Have you received your prize already? My son was lucky enough to win a runners up prize but we've not received anything yet and was hoping it'll arrive before Christmas. I'm checking in with Alexia too but also wanted to check with you.
Have a great Christmas everyone.

Ahhh well done LIZS dd

Just been to have a look on ebay. 20 bids and at £155!
Well done!
WELL DONE LIZS - your DD did a fabulous job and she is raising lots of money (MORE than some of the celebs I think!) has she made you bid on it yet???!!!
dd still looking like

, so many thanks again. I can't believe it is already at £155 !!!! Do we know how much the celeb ones have raised ?
Oh I was hoping to find out who had been selected and who had won.
I never got round to doing one

Aren't we supposed to be able to bid for the mumsnet winner iggle on ebay today?
Any news about the winners yet?
oh disaster! oh

right, I will try again. doh.
slur just checked and can't see any emails from you

have had other entries with pdf attached and they've got through.
Email contactus@mumsnet.com if you'd like help with it.
Coca if it's your design, I'd put your MN nickname, but if it's your child's, I'd put their name.
Sorry, needed to be in office to check the comp inbox, will do so right now

Oh errr NOT that we are desperate or anything, in fact DD is entirely calm and dispassionate aboutthe whole thing, she is after all 4.
<okay she may be dancing around a teeny bit saying "Has it gone in the computer Mummy? has it? has it? HAS IT?">
Ah actually I sent you six emails. hmmm.

did any get through?
Oops I sent you emails but I am not sure if they were too big. Can you confirm they got through?
I have a question.
We have ben busy designers here in the Slur house, and dd, ds and moi have all designed an iggle piggle (admittedly ds's is a bit err avant garde). Now when you say one entry per person, do you mean per person or per household?
Sooooooo, Can I send you 3 separate emails?
Sorry being dim but in the "designed by" box do you want real names or MN names?
I just found it! Check out:
www.inthenightgarden.co.uk
Thought it as only me that couldnt find it. So disappointed
Has anyone tried to go to www.ebay.co.uk/igglepiggle - dying to see the celeb outfits but the page doesn't seem to exist yet?
LIZS, sorry for delay, yes, we've got your entry. thanks

ok have done it as a .tif (whatever that is !) and sent it - can we confiorm if it got through ok ?
I already have it A4 (my printer/scanner is that size) but still too big to email. Will try to save as a jpeg
Hope this makes it easier, have reduced template to A4 size, so smaller file size, plus easier to print etc.
LIZS What software are you using? You should be able to compress the image so the dimensions are A3 but the file size under 1MB. The quality isn't quite as high but shouldn't be a problem. Avoid saving as a BMP or TIF file, go for something like a JPG.
how can you get it less than 1mb - even a black and white drawing version is 1.1 ?
Can't do A3 will have to be a4- dd doing hers atm
Thanks very much Geraldine. Will put the kids name down also so they know it wasn't just my effort!!!!
if you're posting your design, can you include your MN nickname and your email address.
thanks

grumpalumpa, I will find out and post asap and whomovedmychocolate thanks for info about file size
erm quick question but if i
am were

going to post what would I need to include??? Obviously igglepiggle but do I put my mumsnet name and home address or just email addy or real life name??
The kids have had a whale of a time doing this but really don't think anyone would 'buy' it!! Not even out of mother love!!!!

BTW Cbeebies always recommend A3 as a standard size for the birthday cards which is prob why they want this A3. Mine is deffo not suitable to show on cbeebies

Hi Geraldine - I've entered by email - but with the limitation on file size there is no way you'd be able to print it at A3! Just not doable without it being absolutely shocking resolution!
But of course I have a high res version of my
ahem artwork muwhahahhahahahh which I'll probably post online at some point to scare small children!

A3 was the template Children in Need supplied. I'll double check about the size and whether it's fine just to do A4. And, yes, it's open to anyone ie children or adults.
wmmc - no, you're the only one to admit you've entered!
I probably won't because my printer is on the blink (due to Tom shoving pens in it) and I daren't ask DP to print me off one at work.
have you seen the episode where he wet farts all over his blanket?
Please tell me I'm not the only person who has bothered to enter?

Ooh I've done one....what fun!
Is that the one with the wank blanket??

Why oh why does everyone think of S&M when they think of Iggle Piggle?

I find Iggle Piggle quite sinister tbh

He reminds me of Lurch from the Adams Family
Is it meant to be done by adults or kids? I know it says either but the adult ones will possibly be better than the kids?! Also, where can you get A3 prints done?
I deeply, deeply, deeply shouldn't have gone to look at the picture. I go off on a tangent too easily.
Sorry. I think I need to go back to the drawing board.
igglepiggle ina gimp mask and chain?
Why is it A3?
Can we ahem, help, the DC with this. Mine are only small so I'm so worried they won't be dexterous enough to get their 'vision' just right.
Thanks,I hope so as I don't fancy tracking down a place with a bigger photocopier to do an enlargement copy onto A3 as some don't do the colour copy at that size.
I'm sure it'll be OK.

I've been to the library to print out the template, it is A3 size , but I had to get it done on A4, as the printer doesn't take larger paper, so the blanket area is quite small but ok, do you think it matters?
PMSL!!
You can copy the igglepiggle template on to A3 paper and post your design to the address on the link if you don't have scanner.
what like nipple tassels and crotchless pants?
would love to, however no printer or scanner!
very jealous of whoever wims this.
Good Luck!!
