Welcome!! We're glad to have you here!! ;D
Once you've had a chance to look around, head down to the Introductions thread and say hello. We'd love to know a little bit about you and your models.
If you are interested in showing, please contact me (you can send a private message) or one of the other moderators to get the information on the shows, website and password. You'll need to pick a stable abbreviation or initials that you will use for showing - you can find a list of the ones currently in use in the Abbreviations thread.
Take a look at the Rules section that gives you info on, well, the rules! The most important things to remember:
- no more than five horses per class
- maximum photo size is 400 pixels any one side
- be sure to include your horse's name, your initials (or you can do a stable prefix and then the horse's name), color, breed, sex (make and model is optional) in the TITLE of the photo.
We have two show sessions each month. All the show entering and judging dates are listed in a roster at the top of the 2015 ABMHA SHOW thread, so you can see what is coming up, what is being judged and who the judges are. We ask all of our showers to also judge at least 2 times in each three month period - we have a grace period for our new showers, but if you'd like to get involved right away, that's fine too!
Shows are split by make of model (OF Breyer, CM/AR, and Other Makes) and some of the larger classes offer novice sections for new showers. We have an OPEN ring for Grand Champions (includes OF & CM GCs, Breyer Ponies and Mini Whinnies). If you have a question, feel free to contact Crows Nest Farm if you have any questions, although you can ask almost anyone and they will be happy to help.
You'll find lots of threads on models, tack-making, photo critiques, games, etc. This is a very relaxed forum - everyone is here to have fun and help other showers out and we hope you enjoy it here too!
Cheers,
Kay
