Anyone can enter this contest. It is not so much we have these in the spirit of competition, rather we have these contests to challenge ourselves and to give ourselves motivation to take pictures that we might otherwise not do. And in turn learn and grow.
RULES
IMPORTANT RULES:
A) When creating your effect, you MUST save a photoshop file on your computer (ie; .psd) BEFORE you 'flatten image' and be sure the history and layers are visible. - this is to ensure all entries are infact created in photoshop (or paint shop pro), and not as they were out of the camera. - If/When asked, please provide Big_B or I this version of your photo to confirm that the effect was created in photoshop/paint shop pro & to stop people using other programs or preset actions to achieve the effect/manipulation.
1) The contest will run for two weeks and will end on Friday 1st October, 2005 at 8:00AM GMT.
2) You can submit up to two pictures, and change these if you wish up to the time that the competition ends.
3) No cheating
4) Photos must be no larger than 800 pixels at the longest dimension. Also, please try and keep the filesize down to under 200k if possible to make viewing the gallery easier for modem users.
5) No text or copyright notices.
