Theme: "Old" - Sometimes, it's not about being shiny or attractive. This time, it's about being decrepit, downtrodden, or downright dystopian. Old people, old buildings, old anything!

Timeframe: Your entry must be emailed to finalgearphoto@gmail.com on or before midnight Mountain Time, October 27th, 2007.
Prize: Bragging rights, and a position in the Winners' Gallery!

Restrictions: Please follow the following restrictions in order to submit an eligible entry.

- Your image must be a maximum of 1000 pixels (height or width), and a minimum of 500 pixels (height or width).
- Your submission email should have the title of the image and "Contest #12" in the subject. Please title your images, as the poll must have some way to distinguish between them - I don't want half the vote options to be "Untitled."
- Also, when you email your submission, make sure you include your FinalGear screen name so I know who's submitting what!
- Only one submission per user. Please do not create multiple accounts to submit more images, as it is 1) unethical, and 2) statistically reduces your chance of winning anyway.
- Your image must NOT contain any borders or signatures or anything to identify the photo as your own. The images will be stripped of EXIF data as to make the vote 100% anonymous. Please do not mention which photo is yours, and please do not post that image anywhere until the contest is over.
- Your image must have been taken after the contest has started, I will not accept old photos that happen to match the subject. This contest is designed to promote creativity, not find out who has the biggest backlog of good photos.
- Your image may be altered in whatever imaging software you choose, without actually altering the content of the photograph. (i.e. you can alter the curves as much as you want, but you can't paste in David Hasselhoff.) Editing out distracting non-content objects such as power lines is also acceptable.
- Please keep the submissions tasteful and without gore/nudity. I like nude photography as much as the next guy, but this is a public forum. Don't submit anything you wouldn't put up in a public area.

If you have any comments or suggestions about the rules of the FinalGear contests, please voice them in the appropriate forum, or in this thread if you want.

When submitting your image, feel free to suggest a topic for the next contest!

Good luck, and have fun!



Note: Sorry about the current delay, I'm in final exam season at the moment and things will resume in mid-December.

Sounds like fun! Hopefully I'll be able to make it into this one...
 
Ooooh, this should be interesting :) Haven't got an idea yet, maybe I should just take a self portrait :p
 
I can see more entries for this one..
 
:tumbleweed:
 
Don't worry - with the latest competitions, BCS always too a week or so to set the voting rounds up, I'm confident it'll be the same this time!
 
Don't make me "miscount" the latest voting thread! ;)

I'm tallying and thread-making between assignments today, could take a few more hours before everything's ready.

:p No probs, I was just bored.

You are a tad late for this one... The last post was exactly 10 months ago. But there should be a new one up soon.
 
Not sure. BCS said he would, but clearly hasn't gotten round to it - its been a while so he'll need to sort stuff out probably.
 
Sorry about that, being hammered by classes again. Somebody shoot me a reminder PM tomorrow and I'll get the thread done while I'm in class.
