Please email in your guess.

hi,
there are actually two different things in the photograph
i know what they both are but which one do i send in or do i send in both?
June 15th, 2008
Just list either or both. In this case, the upper item is more of the key item.
June 15th, 2008
As Mike recommended listing the upper right item is the one that is the main thing but there is nothing wrong with describing everything seen.
