Question regarding pictures/artwork. Do the pictures we use/could use, have to be original works of art by us, or can we use artwork/pictures we've collected/googled?
thanks for any and all replies.

Can we add additional areas/encounters as a prelude/epilogue?

...we should be operating within the bounds of the map.

Does that answer your question?

They need not be original works of art (though of course how that affects your Creativity score is up the judges). But remember that the Terms of Use are always applicable, and they include the following:
"You represent and warrant that . . . you own or control all of the rights to the User Content that you post or you otherwise have the right to post such User Content to the Site. . . ."

From the Q&A:
Q. Can I alter the maps?
A. No. You cannot ignore tiles or add to them.
However, the second required elements does state "Describe briefly why PCs might be adventuring in the area described by the map."
So, you cannot add additional encounter areas to the map, but as part of your prelude, you can indicate (briefly!) that the players would have had specific encounters.
I hope that answers your questions.

Oh, and Dulsi, that stat-block is great. Can the html just be cut/pasted into a forum post?
Yes. When you paste it into the editor it will still display the html text but when preview or post it will display it properly.

Why do people insist on using images for monster stat blocks? They usually look bad due to compress artifacts and are not searchable. I've modified my monster builder to output an html that mostly works on the forum. Here is the black striped snaildragon. Click visualize button on the bottom of the page to see approximately how it will look. I still need to tweak the formatting a bit but it shows what you can do on these forums with just html. Granted my monster builder isn't open to the public. Feel free to copy the formating. WotC should build that kind of output into their monster builder.
Had I known I could do that I would have.
Can you tell us how you got that to work?

You can provide full stat blocks or, if found in an official book or the Compendium, you may simply reference its name as it appears in that book or Compendium as well as the source.

for me (and those who don't speek lawyer) ... are we allowed to use art that's freely available on the wizards site?

For years, I've lived a double life. In the day, I do my job - I ride the bus, roll up my sleeves with the hoi-polloi. But at night, I live a life of exhilaration, of missed heartbeats and adrenalin. And, if the truth be known a life of dubious virtue. I won't deny it - I've been engaged in violence, even indulged in it. I've maimed and killed adversaries, and not merely in self-defence. I've exhibited disregard for life, limb and property, and savoured every moment. You may not think it, to look of me but I have commanded armies, and conquered worlds. And though in achieving these things I've set morality aside, I have no regrets. For though I've led a double life, at least I can say - I've lived.
