Photo competition 89
Comp : 89
Congratulations to mick on winning competition 88.
Each competition will run for 2 weeks, 12 days for uploading photo's and a further 2 days which can be used for voting only.
During the 12 days uploading time you will be able to vote and there will be an option to cancel your vote if you feel a better picture has been submitted.
After the 12 day upload period, voting only will be allowed for 2 days then voting will be stopped.
Anyone can vote, you don't have to enter the competition to be entitled to a vote but it is 1 vote per person.
The winner will get to choose a theme for the next competition.
And to choose a prize from the list in the Gallery .
( You won't need to do anything else, the moderators will create the folder to be uploaded too)
UPLOADING ends at 10pm on the Friday night, you have 48 hours to VOTE (until 10pm Sunday UK time)
The winner then has 12 hours to PM Mick with the next THEME (PLEASE PM DO NOT POST THE NEW THEME ON SITE I COULD MISS IT PM ONLY PLEASE)
if I have not been contacted within this time Mick will pick the theme.
In the event of a tie the person who chose the theme will decide on the winner.
6 entries are allowed per person.
Anymore than this will be removed, your 1st 6 uploads will stay - later ones will be removed.
All images must be your own work, Or close family.
Scanned,(from your own photos) digital, phone, video stills are all allowed,
(please don’t use images off the Internet or from magazines or from postcards as we don’t want Accyweb getting into trouble for hosting copyright images).
You will retain copyright of all your images.
No photo's to be removed from the photo competition by any member except mods or admin
Photo's altered with image editing software will be allowed.
THE NEXT THEME CHOSEN BY : mick is :

Closing date for this competition is 22:00pm on the Friday 19th Feb 2010
and voting will be allowed up to 22:00pm on Sunday the 21st Feb 2010
NOTE
It would help me if all members that have entered the competition are on line at the closing of the competition,
so i can set the next competition up quickly thank you .
I know its not all ways possible but if you can it would help

Re: Photo competition 89
I have nothing suitable for this one either. I have a thing about creepy crawlies.......as Kate will confirm.......I once p'd down my leg because a moth flew into my bathroom......it was a big moth and it did dive bomb me.
So I stay as far from them as I possibly can...so no pics from me...sorry.

I know the feeling ... did consider turning over a few stones in the garden ... probably some wood lice under there, but would probably just turn and run before they did ... yuk.

Apologies to all who have now flicked over to the Over 18's .. have used a copyright photograph, so quite rightly, Mick has removed it. I do try and look, but never quite sure of the 'labelling'.
I don't think Spugs appreciated it anyway, so sorry if I caused any offence.
