sSNAKESs.com Photo Contest - Page 3

Sounds like a great contest, I'll be sure to enter... Also working in the photo industry if your talking about basic colour corrections and light intensity, chances are if your shooting with digital your camera came with a basic editing/correcting program, if it's scanned pics, the photo lab should have already done this for you so everyone does in fact have the same odds, when it comes to that. Just my thoughts......contest is a great idea.

Didn't mean to rock the boat Matt. But I do know how you feel I was thinking before I posted, "We can't even have a simple contest."
Cheers,
Trevor

I was disapointed when the last contest just evapourated, but now I see why.

So here you go, standard simple photo contest rules for dummies (my interpretation):

#1 Take a photo
#2 Submit it with your sSnakeSs user name
#3 The Mods will pick a dozen or so THEY like for what ever reason (as it is their contest it's their discretion. Period)
#4 If you cant handle rules 1-3 don't waste their time submitting a pic.

Yep I think I can handle that.
Happy snapping ya' all.

LMAO!!! Thanks Gary

Trevor, no worries man..

As far as how we'll vote, I really don't know.. Perhaps we'll vote on the ones we think SHOULD make it through for whatever reason, I think that is the fairest way..

Just be patient with us, it may take us a couple of days to go through all of the pics and pic the 'best' ones.. There are some REALLY nice pics that have been submitted guys!! Keep em coming..

I think the contest is a wonderful idea as well, but it's important to lay out the rules ahead of time so everyone is aware of what is and isn't allowed.

I'm sure some of us aren't great photographers but do ok in Photoshop while some of us are great at taking pics but coudln't colour correct if our life depended on it. Which is why I asked in the first place.

When you put up a prize of course people want to win. And when people want to win they'll do anything within the rules to do so, it's human nature.

I'm sure we'll all love the amazing pics that are sure to come out of this contest but I personally would feel much better knowing that there are clear and set in stone guidelines set out beforehand. It's only fair right?

But what are we supposed to do in that case? Say no photoshop, which means no cropping, cutting, resizing or anything? Or only allow those changes, and in the end either way, how can we tell what's been done and hasn't for sure?

All these little details.

We tried to be clear with the rules. And I mean nothing is serious here. It's all fun. If someone turns in a photo that's a total obvious fake, well that's digital art and not a photo. But aside from blatant obvious changes, we are really hoping just to get some good regular pics like normally posted here and hand out a small prize.
