;_; I tried, KRM! Honnest, I tried! I just can't make it woooooooooork! (coz the light has to be right, and the backround has to be plain, and the flash REFELCTS of the stupid money! And I don't have an entire set of bills around so it doesn't work anyway! (waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!)
Sorry. ;_;
Random note: As off this year, our currency is changing slightly. On July 31st our 5-cent pieces are being taken out of circulation, as well as our 10's changing to a bronze colour and all 10s 20s and 50s being made smaller and slighter, effective November 1st. Woooowowowowoooo! (I'm actually kinda annoyed about it coz now I'll lose it all easier, and I'll miss the Tuatara (a native NZ lizard that is depicted on the 5-cent piece)).
Second random note: I don't want to give you more work than you need, and I don't know if this kind of info is required for your thingy, but if you feel like it, you might want to make some comment on the native environment of NZ being special.
to explain: New Zealand, being an island, (especially before the settlers came, and even more before the Maori came) had it's own little eco-system. I think scientists decided that just due to how the islands broke off the other land masses they were part of like, millions of years ago, after the dinosaurs died off, there were no mamalian predators on these islands. NZ became home to some of the most unique bird and reptilian life in the world, as without predators like cats, rats and weasels/stoats/ferrets, egg-laying species found life easier. This is why their are such interesting flightless birds like the Kiwi and the Kakapo, and ancient lizards like the Tuatara here. Also, before they were hunted out of exsistance, we had the biggest flightless bird in the world: The Moa, plus the worlds largest eagle, the Hasst's Eagle.
<_< ... sorry, I know I'm ranting, but I did just do like, a year's worth of study on these kinds of things....
