Fantastic Photos
http://www.menewsha.com/img/banners/...7572e78f6b.png Banner by Ikuto Akihiko Hasegawa The phoenix orchid is once again in bloom! I think I can smell it from here, and we're not even at the greenhouse! We may not all be lucky enough to have phoenix orchids popping up in our gardens, but I'll bet almost all of you have something beautiful blooming! Or maybe nature isn't really your thing? Perhaps you find more beauty in the gleam of metal? Whip out your camera and show me what you find most beautiful, be it natural or industrial, and you might just win yourself a prize! |

OH a taking picture contest. Interesting.
|
Do you know of any ways to get the username onto said photos because I do not have any access to programs that would be able to do that on my computer but I do want to enter this contest. [yes]
Because the entries that I want to enter are ones that I've taken in years past so I can't take a picture with my username like the ones that you gave an example for. |
I could help you out with that if you need Nemo. :) I gots all kinds of shop skills. :D
|
Nephila: Alright. What would be the best way to send photos over to you? I also need to locate them - I think I know where one of the two that I want to enter is. But I am not totally 100% sure where the second one is.
|
Just pm me the links when you find them and I'll get on it. :)
|
Alright. If I can locate them, I'll send them your way. I am also confused by editing in the username - like is it not allowed to be put on on the computer? Because if that is the case, I'm in trouble because I have no way of taking decent pictures right now of the flowers I want.
|
Ooh nice.
Is it possible to use already-taken pictures, though? :/ |
Queen: That's what I want to know too... Because the photos I know of were taken months ago. But the way that the rules are worded makes it sound like it has to be photos that have been recently taken... Which means I can't enter. [sweat] *sighs* I really do want to enter though!
|
Hey I won't tell if you don't nemo. lulz!! uh oh though they might hear us.
All the flora is very boring and brown right now for me. >.< Though the snow can be purdy so... |
Hm..
This will be interesting to do! |

Hmm, desert flora. I can probably work with that. We just got a pretty new bougainvillea and a bunch of new vines for the back yard that I think have little buds on them. Maybe I'll even go scouting tomorrow morning for wildflowers. Might actually have to give this a try...
|
I guess i won't participate in this because i only have a cellphone to take pictures with...
|
I think I might be able to make my pine tree work it. We'll see how it goes. I'm going to have more difficulty with the other part of it.
|
Oooo! I love photo contests. [:D]
I've been really lazy with taking photos lately, but since it's spring here there are plenty of flowers to take pics of. |
This is perfect! I have a whole week off so I might go into the city or gardens to see what's what. Although I do have a few photo's I took overseas that fit into the categories but I'll have a hard time proving that they're mine... That's if we are allowed to submit photos we have already taken. I guess it won't matter, I'm sure I'll find something in the city. :)
|
This sounds fab, especially the industrial category. I can't wait to see what kind of pictures you guys take!

Just wondering: not that the answer will make me change my mind at all -- why don't you want us editing our name onto the photo? I can tell you. And it makes me feel like you don't trust us - but the photo that I have in mind was MOST DEFINITELY taken by me. [yes] |
Because editing your name onto it doesn't prove you took it. I could take a photo my friend posted on facebook and edit "Cherry Who?" onto it.
Please understand that people do try to cheat contests and games that we host during our events. It may be a small percentage of people, but every now and then someone tries something funny. Certain precautions have to be taken against that. There's really only so much I can do here. Not everyone lives in an area that currently has flowers blooming, so I have also included the industrial category. Not everyone has access to a good camera, either, but there isn't really anything I can do about that. We strive to offer a wide variety of contests and games during each event so that there's something for everyone, regardless of the resources they have at hand or the time they have to spare. Unfortunately, most people won't be able to enter every single contest and play every game, but we do what we can. |
Cherry will you get upset if i try to enter with not so high quality photo that I try to improve the graphics slightly using photoshop?
