HHahahahah Tim

And now that that's out of the way... lol. Thanks guys, it'll be great to finally see another photo contest! Been missing those, it's always great to see everyone's favourite shots.

Now, you'll have to excuse me while I go searching through the thousands of pics on this computer trying to pick one out to enter

One photo per member keeps things fair, and down to a minimum on sheer numbers.

And like Matt said, reptile related photos only.

This is all fun guys.

Another quick question... what about modified photos?

What I mean is are we allowed to tweak them in photoshop?

Sorry to be a pain about it Matt But with only one entry each i'd be disappointed to have some really nice photoshop job beat out a much nicer overall pic that wasn't just cause we didn't ask beforehand. Not that I have a snowball's chance in hell of winning heh.

I guess if I get anything sent to me that is severly photoshopped, i'll post it for the mods to see and we can decide from there.. If they feel it's just toooooo tweaked out, we'll not allow it and the person who sent it will be informed and given a chance to submit a 'clean' pic.

So that's a yes, it's allowed... but don't go crazy with it?

meaning stuff like correcting colors or lighting a bit would be allowed but the full meal deal of 'art' ing it up would not be?

What about people without photo shop? This contest should be about who can take the best herp pic with the camera they have, no touch ups.
My two cents,
Trevor

It's impossible to keep everyone happy.. And THIS is why we haven't had contests for so long..

Photoshop can't really make your pic "better". It can help you frame it and present it a little more professionally but a bad pic cropped, resized and copywritten is still a bad pic.

Guy's it's just a little contest for fun.

And like Tim says, photoshop cannot make your pic better. Photoshop can crop, resize, fix lighting but aside from that it's not a big deal. Obviously we wouldn't throw up a pic that shows a photoshopped pied python with pink spots. It's not art, it's a photo contest.

Even popular digital photo contests online allow simple photoshop changes..i.e. light, crop etc.

Free Photo Shop for members

This is a basic but free download if you do not have a photo shop on your computer. http://www.adobe.com/products/photos...m/starter.html Good luck everybody and great job to the crew that put this together!
