PHOTO OF THE MONTH CONTEST March 2008
Please enter your favorite photo into our photo of the month contest.
March's theme...SHED ANTLERS
The photo must have been taken by the entrant, but there is NO time limit set to how long ago the picture was taken. If the category happens to include field photos, they can be taken by someone else as long as it is of the entrant themselves.)
- The photo must pertain to hunting or fishing or the outdoors in some fashion and it must match with the current months theme.
-Photo size MUST be 800x600 pixels or LESS
-2 entries per contestant are allowed per month. If more than 2 entries are submitted the first two elegible ones will be the ones accepted for the contest.
-Entries must be submitted by midnite of the 27th of the current month(March) in order to qualify for that Months contest.
-Photos of Washington material will receive preference in judging as the winner will be posted on the front of a Washington site.
-Previous entries will not be eligible for future photo of the month contests.
-The winner of the previous months contest is not eligible for the next months contest. (February's winner cannot win in March)
-Entries will be accepted or rejected as is, meaning the judges will no longer enhance, or alter images.
The photos will be evaluated by a panel of Judges made up of Boneaddict, Jackelope, Billy the Kid Rock, Huntwa, Shadow cat Bobcat and Sisu. The winner (NO TIES) will be announced as soon as we come to a majority decision.
The Winner will have their photo posted on the front page and get a free patch.

This guy is starting to "shed" his winter coat. Does it count? These hats really do produce.

You have to look at it by the numbers Bone, when the mods decided to put themes behind each month, they in affect reduced the size of the pool by eliminating large groups of posters that don't participate in said topic. Then brake it down even further, out of the members that actually do participate in each months topic, shed hunting for instance, how many of them actually post pics anyway? I'm not complaining, its not my site so I go along with whatever Huntwa decides, but putting themes behind each month actually does eliminate the amount of participants you have.

I agree with most of that Pope, like I said I'm not complaining, just trying to explain to Bone why there are few pics. We have about 1000 members, of those 1000 how many post pics of any kind? Not many. Of those 1000, how many actually go out and shed hunt? Even less. What we are left with is only a handful of people that will actually have gone shed hunting, and even fewer that will find one and post it, leading to questions like Bones. I would be very surprised if there are 20 members on here that have gone out shed hunting this year, found one and took a pic of it.
