July/August 2007 Photo Competition
« Thread Started on Jul 7, 2007, 7:42pm »
And the mod-eth say-eth, "Ye ask-eth, and we shall deliver-eth". In other words, someone asked for a "Best tanks comp" - and here it is :)

So it's time for the July/August Photo Competition, and the theme shall be "Tanks and Set-Ups".

As it's still technically a photo competition, the Photo Competition Rules still apply.

Post your entry on this thread - no massive/tiny pics please - we'd like to be able to see them. Please remember - only one entry per member. If you dont know how to post a pic - dont panic - click here.

Cut off date for entries is Saturday 28th July (which gives you 3 weeks to get snapping and posting your pics). Voting will start on Sunday 29th July, and finish on Sunday 12th August - at which point we will announce the winner.

If anyone has any questions - just shout :)

Edited to add - As well as the usual prize of having your winning photo on the main PetSnails site - Eric has very kindly donated 4 albino reticulata babies for the winner. This prize is optional - ie. if the winner doesn't have the room or doesn't want them, they dont have to take them. Thank you Eric! ;D


Update - no more entries now please - voting begins on Sunday (tomorrow - 29th July).

Please dont forget to send your votes to me by pm - putting your vote in the pm title like so:

Photo comp - (name of member you're voting for)

That way it's quicker for me to count the votes up. Best of luck everyone!

Ok peoples, here's my entry, i'm sorry for the poor photo quality, but i've captured both angles, so the whole of the tank can be seen. Thanks. I have no chance, oh well.

Sorry if this is against the rules, i just couldn't make the perfect picture of the contents.

Here is a bird's-eye view of my aspersa Zuma's tank. She is sleeping in her coconut shell at the moment.

Right that's it guys and gals (pardon the pun) - no more entries please. Voting starts tomorrow - please remember to put your vote in the title of your pm in this format:

Photo Comp - (name of person you're voting for)

That way I can count votes without having to go through each pm. Thanks folks - and good luck to those who've entered! And dont forget to get your votes in!
