JUNE CONTEST SUBMISSIONS THREAD...

[Blue_In_AK]

Okay, you've all had long enough. Now is the time. The submissions thread for "People Pictures - Showing Their Personalities" will remain open until 30 entries are received or until 10:00 p.m. or so, Alaska time, on Wednesday, June 21st (that would be 2:00 a.m. on the east coast).

Prelims will be posted soon thereafter, with finals beginning three or four days after that. Sorry I can't be more specific at the present time.

I don't know how to do that cool-looking box that JeffR had last month, but these are the rules in case anybody has forgotten.


BASIC CONTEST/CHALLENGE RULES:

Only one entry per person. You need to post your entry in the submission thread started by the Host of a contest/challenge. Please be sure to include a "Title" for your photograph in the Subject line of your post. The submission thread is for photo entries only, no comments. The Host will usually start a separate thread just for comments.

Please try to keep your photograph entry no larger than 800 pixels in its longest dimension and under 200K in file size. If you need help posting a photograph or with image sizing just ask.

The winner of the contest agrees to host the next month's contest (or recruit someone else to host the contest), and pick the next month's theme. Typically the winners have not been able to enter a photograph in the next contest. Be sure to read the following before you enter a photograph.

CONTEST LICENSE:

An entrant to this contest, by submitting a photograph, is giving permission for that photograph to be copied to Demopedia and/or to a linked Gallery that will display the photographs entered for this contest for the purpose of publicizing future contests and/or commemorating current and past contests. The entrant retains all other rights to the photograph being submitted. Neither Demopedia and/or a linked Gallery may use any photograph submitted for any purpose other than to display the photograph being submitted by the entrant, and neither gains any real or implied ownership rights to the photograph.

An entrant can disclaim this Contest License and retain all rights to the photograph. If an entrant wishes to disclaim the Contest License they must include the following statement in the post containing their photograph; "I disclaim the Contest License, and reserve all rights to my photograph" Any photograph submitted by an entrant with this disclaimer statement will not be copied and displayed in Demopedia and/or any linked Gallery.


I'm looking forward to seeing all of your fabulous entries. :)
