    Topic: Big Vs. Small

    **Voting will be from June 24th - 30th**

    Rules:

    1. READ THE RULES PLEASE!!!
    2. ***Please E-mail or PM pictures to me and I will add them to the thread anonymously.*** Please provide a title and remove signatures that would give away the photographer. Feel free to watermark for copyright purposes. PM Me if you want my E-mail address
    3. One entry picture per person allowed for contest.
    4. Picture must be YOURS - and must be taken DURING the contest dates.
    5. Photoshopping / alterations IS/ARE allowed.
    6. Must follow forum rules (no NSFW, swearing, etc.)
    7. Maximum file size: 800 x 800 pixels
    8. Whoever wins the challenge must have new challenge posted by the last day of the previous month.
    9. This is the discussion AND photo thread, yo.

    Send me your pictures.

    If there is ANY question about the date that the picture was taken, the original image with the Exif information must be E-mailed to me. I would like to believe that all participants will honor the contest by not cheating and so far that has worked, so keep it up.

    I will be offering a double-secret prize for the winner, but only if there are five or more pictures entered. This is coming out of my own pocket, so GET THOSE PICTURES IN!!!

    AND, Goalie has been kind enough to sweeten the pot:
    UPDATE! The winner will receive a copy of Call of Duty World at War, your choice PS3 or X360!!

    Yes, you are quite good at explaining things.:rolleyes:

    Thank you, Holster. I'm the kind of guy that likes direct instructions, but I'll have to delve into the creative side for this one.

    There are some great looking pictures submitted this month. I wish I had an idea nearly as good as you guys did. On the up side I have been using my camera alot this month, but nothing really popped for this topic.
