    I consider myself to be pretty good at following directions but methinks this process is a bit wacked. I created a login, found my tune and typed my message. But I have yet to be able to click the "OK" button. It is shaded gray and is not reacting to a click. I have tried several times.

    Please help...I plan on winning this thing. :D


    yikes!

    i have been planning on doing this thing, but procrastination is my religion ;).....and if it's half-arsed to boot......not a good sign. :p


    i most definitely have a particular pic in mind, but i see some mentioning multiple entires? if so.....hmmmm.......even more possibilities!



    if/when someone figures out the 'master formula' to make the site work for submissions, would be appreciative if you share here. :)
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow

    When you exceed your character limit of 150 characters on Blip the ok button goes grey, so keep an eye on the number in the upper right, if it reads -39, that means you are over liit by 39..you follow? thanks, keep me posted on the progress and good luck!

    Not sure about photoshopping, but I asked them earlier about multiple entries and they said it was ok and that you can even win multiple times.

    Unfortunately I never take pictures at PJ shows, so i'll definitely have to get creative. For now, I entered this old picture from Hawaii. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3103/2679115262_368b9a8713_o.jpg

  • cool contest...

    i am going to enter...just one question.

    do you insert the URL for the photo then have @pjpromo at the end of it? like.... (photo url here)@pj.promo.

    i don't get it...why does @pjpromo have to be in the box? is it an e-mail address? but you're not sending an e-mail, you're submitting a photo?

    haha sorry for this, i guess i smoke too much weed but i really don't get it.

    it's @pjpromo (url)... i think they want you to enter the @pjpromo so they can filter based on that... so they can see who entered the pj contest by searching @pjpromo and then click on the url

    I think Lance is gonna be missing out on a few good shots from some of us.
    Cant wait to see all the entries!

    It is going to take a few days for them to go through pictures. I went through a few pages, seems alot are not real entries, unless a photo of a framed poster or a baby wearing a PJ shirt count..LOL

    Personally, I would hope Photoshopping wasn't allowed, except for maybe bordering your pics os something.. but to apply filters and effects or doing touching ups, or editing things out or in is not photography, but merely photo editing. In my opinion, this would defeat the principle of the contest.

    Peace

    I used a little Photoshop on all 3 of my images... Cropped them, adjusted the levels, and a little bit of color adjustment too... I could have removed some of the noise from the photos too but I liked the way they looked with the noise in them.

    You can check them out here. Would you disqualify me for submitting these images? (I'll let you guess what images they are)

    Photoshop is a tool, if used properly you can get great natural looking work out of it. If over used and abused you get shit... I'm sure they'll weed out the shit...

    Cropping is not something I would really consider photoshopping.. I mean, it is a function of a photo editor, but not something that alters the original photograph except to take the part of it that you want focus on and bring it to the right position for viewing. The color adjustments would be somewhat questionable, but then if you shoot in the raw, you would apply all these adjustments later as a photographer. I dunno. It would be nice for them to answer this question. It's definitely an important one and time to enter is ticking away.

    Peace
    Just me
