John Anderson August 3, 2026 at 6:08 PM Hi, Congratulations with your place in the Criss-Cross Pivot Contest. You did a wonderful job with the complex layout AND with the concept gathering down to the PIVOT and then expanding out with a changed perspective. Note: You can use 2-3 words on either side rather than a single one. If you are interested in continuing with this layout and perspective - send me a soup mail and I will provide a link in return post to a python tool that does 90% of the layout for you. Have Fun! Cheers!
