May GPGA Contest - PART I

Journal Entry: Fri May 23, 2008, 10:46 AM













May Grand Prize Give Away Contest




The Contest Theme for May is "Flowers"


You decide if your deviation qualifies but the winning entries will be judged on image quality, imagination and original interpretation of the Theme :). Any media is accepted including old and new deviations.

Anyone that likes the ideal behind this contest and is prepared to donate a prize that the winner or maybe a 2nd or 3rd placed deviant can give away to someone else should note me and I will update the journal with your sponsored prizes.

The news article is here, please add your love to it :)

The entries and results (when finalised) for last months GPGA contest are here


The Contest Rules


The rules and the prizes are slightly unusual so please read them carefully before entering.

The Contest rules and prizes are designed to promote the ideal of giving without expecting to get something in return, an ideal which I feel is seriously lacking in todays society.

The Rules

To Enter the competition

1. Send me ^KevLewis a NOTE, titled GPGA Contest, containing the thumbnail, or thumbnails, of the deviation(s) you are entering. To include the thumb in the note just cut and paste the : thumbXXXXXX : which is by the side of every deviation on dA into the note.

2. A maximum of TWO deviations only per deviant is allowed, any more and the note will be ignored. I will update the entry list on this journal on a weekly basis to avoid spamming everyone with my journal.

3. Anyone entering the competition will not personally gain from the contest prizes, nor can they be nominated for a prize by the winning deviant.

4. The contest will close on the 31st May at midnight GMT and the winning entries will be notified shortly afterwards.

5. Read the rules twice and understand them before entering.


The Prizes


The Winner will receive:
- A 12 month dA subscription that they MUST donate to another dA member, Donating the subscription to a club is acceptable.
- journal feature from =mom-the-bomb, =DevilsDreamer, =leocbrito, *sugadaddy, =2dazed, *Vertasual, =Masterwks and =Flynn-the-cat

Shoutboard

The Gallery descriptions for the Animals, Plants and Nature Categories


* Birds - Photographs of live birds either in their natural habitat or captivity (ie. zoo or wildlife sanctuary) should be placed here. Photographs of extinct birds on display in museums also belong here.

* Domesticated Animals - Photographs of live animals that live with people as pets or livestock in houses or on farms. Images of captive wild animals should be placed in the Wild Animals category.

* Flowers & Plants - Studio or outdoor photographs featuring plants, trees, flowers, and so on. Pictures of mushrooms will go here as well, even though they are not plants.

* Geology - Photographs taken to illustrate naturally formed geological features. Landscape/waterscape images should not be placed here as they have their own categories.

* Invertebrates - Photographs of live Insects, Arachnids, Gastropods, Molluscs, Butterflies and Dragonflies.

* Landscapes - Photographs of an expanse of natural scenery that can be seen in a single view. This category differs from a waterscape in that landscapes should feature solid ground for the most part.

* Aquatic Life - Photographs of all aspects of both fresh and salt water live subjects belong in this category. Images may include coral, shells, sea creatures or fish taken from above AND below water level. Waterscapes do not belong in this category as they have their own gallery.

* Miscellaneous - Photographs of Animals, Plants and Nature that fail to fit in the other categories.

* Reptiles & Amphibians - Photographs of animals that includes crocodiles, alligators, tuatara, lizards, snakes, amphibians, turtles, frogs & toads.

* Sky - Photographs of nature involving the sky or astronomical features as the most significant element. Images of fireworks are specifically excluded from this category.

* Waterscapes - Photographs of an expanse of natural scenery that can be seen in a single view. This category differs from a landscape in that waterscapes should feature water - flowing or standing - for the most part.

* Weather - Photographs focusing on capturing the weather at the particular point in time.

* Wild Animals - Photographs of live animals that do not typically live with people. This category would also include wild animals in captivity (i.e. in a zoo). Birds, Insects and Arachnids, Reptiles & Amphibians do not belong in this category as they have their own galleries.
