Title: Just an idea...
Post by: alecvg on February 20, 2010, 11:48:27 AM: Thought of a way the forum could make some extra money for funds...
What if you used all the photos that won the Photo of the Month contest for a year straight, and then make a calander out of them? I Would guess it would help pay funds!

This is one area where it is not better to ask for forgiveness than it is to ask for permission.

We could word the contest rules in such a way that it states that any winning photos may be used by HuntWA in any way that HuntWA chooses to use them. That way you wouldn't have to try to secure permission/releases from anyone. Many other such contests use this clause in their rules, and contributing photographers have a clear understanding up front.
