UPCOMING BIWEEKLY THEMES
GUIDELINES FOR POSTING ARE IN THE STICKY AT THE TOP OF THIS PAGE
*IMAGES THAT ARE NOT THEME BASED ARE ALWAYS WELCOMED
Monthly Theme Contest
HOW THE CONTEST WORKS Every month a new Theme will be announced - Contestants enter their themed image by starting their thread with the prefix "Theme" selected, this will help the judges decide which images are intended for the contest. At the end of the month the judge will decide his/her favorites and post a result thread in this Forum. IT IS IMPORTANT TO CRITIQUE OTHER PEOPLE'S WORK AS IT WILL HELP THE JUDGES!!!:)
OUR JUDGES FOR THE MONTHLY THEMES ARE CHRISTOPHER MILLER and the Moderators!!!! Thanks to all for their time and effort!
*If anyone would like to GUEST judge a monthly theme please send Cheryl a PM.
*Moderators and Owners are not eligible for the contest but we appreciate their inspirations!!
*Forum Participants are eligible for the contest but they are not eligible for IOTW.
