This should be a fun one!
Rules for submission:
- Themes will be voted on during the week prior to the start of the month. Watch for the voting thread to get your input counted.
- Only one submission per month, per person will be accepted, and the first one to reach our email inbox will be your accepted picture. It may be in your best interest to wait until closer to the end of the month to submit your photo.
- The submission must be taken during the month of the contest. This is a friendly contest meant to encourage people to go out there and shoot new things, not a contest to see who has the biggest archive to search through.
- Include the EXIF information with your files (ie: do not "Save for web" in Photoshop)
- The largest side of your picture must be no bigger than 800 pixels.
- All photos must be emailed to
[email protected] with the subject "(Month) Photo Submission" by 10:00 pm the last night of the month. This will give us time to gather all the photos, strip the data and post them in the voting thread.
- All photo submissions must be accompanied by your name, your beyond user name and a title for the photograph.
- No dramatic alterations on your photo. Colors, contrast, B&W conversions, removing a powerline from the sky, ect. are okay. Please don't add objects to your photos or put them through a filter that makes them look like it's printed on stone or canvas or made out of a neon sign or anything like that. No boarders, watermarks, URL's, ect that could be used to identify your photo as yours. Use your discretion.
- All photos submitted MUST NOT be photos we've seen on this forum before. If you submit it into the "monthly photo thread" then it is no longer eligible for the monthly contest. This is to keep all photos so that we truly can't match them to an owner.
- Voting thread will be up for 5 days before a winner is picked and people will vote based on the title of the image. The winner will be announced at the end of the 5th day and their name (and photo) will make it to our hall of fame thread.
