How to Enter:
There are two ways to submit photos for our contest:
1) You can upload a photo yourself by clicking the "Submit a photo " icon on the contest pages or by clicking on this link. Your image will appear in the gallery pending our review and approval (which can take up to 72 hours)
2) Or E-mail your photo with your pet's name(s) and a brief description of their costume so we know what they are dressed up to be (just in case we can't figure it out) to:
By submitting your photo, you agree to the terms and conditons of this site and to the contest rules (below).
Important: About Image Sizes
For best display in the photo gallery, we recommend an image size of no larger than 600 pixels wide and/or 480 pixels high.
You may not upload images larger than 100Kb (kilobytes, approximately 100,000 bytes) in size . You can make your photos smaller using the "compress" or "optimize" feature found in most photo editing software. This tutorial may help - How do I resize my photos?
If you really REALLY can't resize your photos yourself, you can submit them by email, however there will be a delay in posting photos which need to be resized.
Contest Rules:
- This is a pet costume photo contest - no people, pets only, please!
- Only submit original photos you have taken yourself. If we catch you submitting someone else's work you will be banned from the contest.
- Maximum 5 photos per person.
- We reserve the right to resize and edit photos and to reject or delete without notice photos which we feel are innapropriate or otherwise objectionable, do not adhere to the contest rules, or are in violation of copyright.
Voting:
You may vote for your own photos and ask your friends to vote too (as well as send in their own pictures! ). We do however ask that you not vote excessively - anyone submitting an unusual number of votes or voting to the point where they jeopardize our servers will be banned from the site!
Remember, this is a FUN contest - please be considerate!
Awards:
At the end of the contest the top 10 photos by rating and number of votes will be announced and will remain in the gallery for bragging rights. In the event of a tie, we reserve the right to choose the placements.
Additionally, each week our favorite pet costume photo, chosen from those submitted during the previous week, will be posted on the home page of this site!
Good Luck!
