Swizzle's Photo Contest June/July 2011 - 6/20/2011 9:29:23 PM    swizzle Posts: 3596 Joined: 3/2/2005 From: Upstate NY Status: offline Its time for some fun. I decided that its high time that we had a good photo contest. This contest is open to ALL forum members. So on to the prizes. The Prizes from left to right are: Ripans Tabules from the Ripans Chemical Company An Aqua Pepper Sauce & Dr. Pierce's Anuric Tablets for kidneys and backache. Contest theme is going to be "Views from the Dump". I'm not looking to show us your secret dump locations so be careful to not give up your secret spots. Scenes from the Dump can be a sunrise/set pic of the back ground, slug on a slug plate, bottles still hung up in the bank or anything else that you can think of as a Scene from a Dump. But all pics must be taken at the dump!! In cases of bottles being hung up in the bank you must post a pic of the bottle in the bank as well as out. That would be the only situation where two pics are allowed. Other then that, only 1 pic per person, per contest. Ok lets see, Contest name, prizes, rules....Oh and I'll cover all shipping cost. I'll send that bottles at my own convenience so expect at least a week for shipping. The contest ends at midnight on July 31st. There I think I've covered everything. Ok, let the fun begin...like right now. Start posting, I mean it. Swiz One more thing. Hopefully we can get a poll posted at the end of the contest where everyone in the forum will be allowed to vote for their favorite pics. The poll will run for 3 days. No contest posters will be allowed to vote. If I can't post a poll then it will be with random replies from all of our members to this thread. Thanx for reading and please have fun with this. I may post a video contest for August/September so keep that in mind. Swiz Post #: 1
