Monthly competitions - **please read**

Post by staffylover70 on Sat 29 Aug 2009, 07:07

We have decided to open up the competition to all forum members, each member can now vote for 3 dogs in each category, you must vote for all 3 before you click on submit.
For the September competition we will be adding another category, pairs and packs where members who have multiple dogs can enter if they do not want to take individual pictures, you cannot however enter both categories.

As you are aware voting was previously restricted to mods only due to vote rigging where members would register with multiple accounts, if this happens again then the competition will be withdrawn permanently.

So lets get voting and remember the new competition starts next weeks so get those photo's ready Big grin

i cant believe people would do that after all it is not necessarily your dog that would win but the photo you have taken that would win and how your dog is portrayed , it is only a bit of fun

Totally agree,
A good photo, or an amusing one of freaky old crossbreed, can trump a bad picture of the best looking dog in the world any time.

It's all fun, and if your dog doesn't win..
Remember... There are no bad dogs.. only bad photographers... laughing

(And I'm miffed.. cos since I took the one I'm using as my profile pic, I haven't got a decent one of the little monkey. Will have to try and get a couple before the end of the month..)
