ADA contest: Wish me luck everyone

OK, it's that time of year again. Aqua Design Amano, owned by Takashi Amano (the guru of Garden tanks) has posted the entry form for this years
"International Aquatic Plants Layout Contest 2008"
Here's the link if you're interested:
http://www.adana.co.jp/_e_contest/
But be warned, these are the best of the best garden tanks from around the world.
Having said that, I am nervously entering my Mistic Swamp tank in this years contest. It's obvious to me from last months "Tank of the Month" that you guys all like it (Thanks BTW for the overwhelming win), so let's see how it stands up to the rest of the world.
Wish me luck guys, I'm really gonna need it.

Oh, this is the pic of my tank I submitted:

Thanks everyone! Honestly, last year something like 1,150 people entered. I'd be happy to place in the top 1,000! lol

And the big fish in the middle is a male Pearl Gourami. He's actually one of the signs that maybe I got this tank right. He's the only Pearl in there, and solitary males have a reputation for being "bullies". But this one is the nicect, most peaceful fish you could ask for. So I figure either I got really lucky, or he's at peace because he's in something very close to his natural environment (which was my game plan all along)
