MAY PHOTO CONTEST- SUBMISSION THREAD "SCENE AT A NATIONAL HISTORIC REGISTER SITE"!
The submission thread will close at 9:00 p.m. PDT on May 15, 2009, or whenever thirty photos have been submitted, whichever comes first.

Prelims 5/16 - 18.

Finals 4/19 - 22.

As noted previously, overseas entrants may submit pictures of comparably significant sites taken overseas. (This does not mean you can all submit your vacation shots of the pyramids at Giza!) I will serve as final arbiter for eligibility. You may (please!) submit a title for your photo as usual, as that may be significant to the viewer's interpretation. Please put the National Historic Register Name and Location underneath your submission! Feel free to PM me with any questions, (or just post them if they are of general interest) and Good Luck, everyone!


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 months 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.
