are we allowed to enter more than one entry?

**Fed** · 07-18-2005, 06:33 AM

a few questions:

do the photos become of your property or I can use the photo/s I upload even in other projects?
how many entries are allowed?
which is the deadline?
what will the image be used for?
your url has to be something relevant on the image like a 500px wide or something like a 80px signature in a corner?

thanks

Yes, but the photos will be judged on all of the following:

1: Creativity - (show us your artistic side)
2: Exposure - (the more people who see it, the better)
3: Clarity - (make sure it is readable)
4: Good taste - (please no illegal or dangerous stunts and no "adult" related photos)

So focusing on one picture idea might be best.

Sorry, you're right. Here are the answers to all of your questions, even those on the submission page:
Q: do the photos become of your property or I can use the photo/s I upload even in other projects?
A: No, by submitting you give us permission to publish them, but they remain yours.

Q: how many entries are allowed?
A: As many as you wish, but you can only win one prize.

Q: which is the deadline?
A: October 1, 2005

Q: what will the image be used for?
A: To be published on SearchBliss and maybe for advertising.

Q: your url has to be something relevant on the image like a 500px wide or something like a 80px signature in a corner?
A: I'm not sure what you are asking, but this might help:
Simply take a photo showing our URL (www.SearchBliss.com) and send it to us. You may submit as many photos as you wish, however, only one prize can be awarded to one person. Photos will be judged on ALL of the following:
1: Creativity - (show us your artistic side)
2: Exposure - (the more people who see it, the better)
3: Clarity - (make sure it is readable)
4: Good taste - (please no illegal or dangerous stunts and no "adult" related photos)

So for example, let's you decided to create an large banner with our url and hung it from your home. You would revive points for how creative the banner is, how many people may see it, how clear the url is, and is it in good taste. The winners wil;l be ranked high in all of these 4 catagories (the fourth being the easiest of course).

it seems so, I was thinking about making the image but now I think I won't enter anymore

**toolman** · 07-18-2005, 02:04 PM

you would get more entries if we could use an image already taken and then incorporate the url.

**kline11** · 07-18-2005, 02:18 PM

That is fine as long as the following are present to win:
1: Creativity - (show us your artistic side)
2: Exposure - (the more people who see it, the better)
3: Clarity - (make sure it is readable)
4: Good taste - (please no illegal or dangerous stunts and no "adult" related photos)

Can you do this with an exsisting photo incorporating the url?
