COL Photo Competition
« on: May 17, 2007, 12:02:28 PM »
Some of you may have spotted a new section on the board for a COL Photo Competition - well, it's now open for entries - closing date is 12th of June, so you all have plenty of time to go through all your photos for suitable entries or to take new ones.  :D

To keep things simple for the judges and everyone else viewing the photos, no discussion is allowed on the competition threads - but if anybody wants to chat about the photos or the competition then please use this thread. For any technical advice re posting photos or queries regarding the rules etc - please use the Help section on the competition board.

OK, that's the boring bit out the way - let's all have some fun !  :lol:

Well done Claire for getting things under way - I wondered who'd be brave enough to dip their toe in the water first.  :lol:

Wow, some fantastic entries already - this is going to be really tough for the judges.  :lol:

Can I remind everyone to include the name of their dog above the photos - if you've already posted you can edit your post to include it. Also the size of the photos - resizing in Photobucket isn't always very accurate but there's a bit in the competition rules with an neat trick for resizing within your post ( thanks to Rachel for discovering that).

Thanks.  :D

I love this competition, there are so many great pictures already. Now I'll have to check my computer every hour for new entries  :lol:
And I'm learning a lot, I struggled with resizing one of the pics for 20min  :005:
