    - - - - - so i can have a better understanding of what to focus on based on what you are looking for
    -
    - can you please explain what you mean by "LETTER FOUNDATION" (it makes me think of the general style or type of style that is bing used for the letters, but you already list "style" as a separate thing being considered.

    - can you please explain what you mean by "OVER ALL LETTER DANCE"? (im guessing you mean connections and placement?)

    This battle will be judged about the lettering style. So put your efforts in your letters and not the background and gimmicks.

    ok thank you..

    LAST QUESTION:
    - will those who do have a background and/or use color have an advantage when being judged ,over those who don't, (me), or will a black and white piece without a background have an equal shot of winning as long as the lettering is good?

    - i ask this because even though you say to put my focus on the lettering and "not on the background", the rules mention that "backgrounds are recommended"...and even though black and white is permitted, "use of color is one of the things that will be looked for" by the judges...(sometimes coloring isn't my strong point, and i can do a unique piece in black and white but once i try to add color to it, it really throws it off balance)
    - i appreciate your help..thank you..
