2014 Achaean Photo Contest

Written by: Sarapis, the Logos
Date: Friday, April 18th, 2014
Addressed to: Everyone


It's time to have a photo contest!

Here's how it works: You print out one of a variety of posters and then you take a picture of it somewhere cool. The top photos, as judged by the admin, win prizes!

Posters are here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/xygi29biu5z3kwg/_xQTjV_eUS
They're all intended to be printed on 8.5" x 11" paper.

There are two categories:
* Overall best - The coolest place, whether related to Achaea or not, that you can put that poster and take a picture of it. Don't put it on the wall of some awesome building and take a snapshot close up of just it on the wall though - the picture has to amply demonstrate why it's such a cool location. This could be something in nature, indoors, outside in a city, whatever. It could be super dramatic, funny, beautiful, whatever. It just has to be eye-catching.

* Most appropriate - All the posters minus one have a picture of a God on them. Take a God's poster, put it somewhere that is relevant to that God, and take a photo of it there. Make it cool!

----------------------------------
Email address to mail the photos to: matt@ironrealms.com
In the subject line, include which category you're entering the photo in, and who your character is.

Feel free to include a descriptive note about the photo if you feel it'll help the viewer 'get it' more easily.

Other Things To Know
-----------------------
* Aside from the criteria listed above, don't photoshop a poster into another image or otherwise try to create an image of something you did not do. We won't be happy if you try to slip that by us.

* Photos need to be at least 1000 pixels wide or they won't qualify. (Not a problem on any even quasi-modern camera or camera phone.)

* Max three entries per person (not per character, per person).

* Remember to include which category you're entering a photo into AND your character's name when you email a photo.

* Winners will be posted in our Flickr account, and other entries may also be posted.
