***UPDATED RULES EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY***

1. ONE ENTRY PER DAY, ONE VOTE PER PERSON PER DAY
2. NO BUMPING
3. NO VOTING ON PAGE 1 (GIVE ENTRANTS A CHANCE!!)
*IF PAGE 2 IS NOT REACHED BY 2:00 CST...START VOTING
4. ALL 18+ IMAGES MUST BE LINKED
5. OP ACTS AS SUPERVISOR OF "QUALIFIED IMAGES"
6. NO COLLAGES, MULTIPLE IMAGES, ETC....ONE IMAGE ONLY!
7. NO VOTE STACKING (Getting votes from people on your friends list who are normally not participants in the contest)
8. NO EDITORIAL COMMENTS (Post the photo for its stand alone merits)

*VIOLATION OF ANY OF THESE RULES WILL RESULT IN A DISQUALIFICATION FROM THAT DAY'S CONTEST. THIS NEED TO BE CONSISTENT AND FAIR FOR EVERYONE.

A subject matter is picked and you post your images. Throughout the day other thread posters will reply to the image they like the best with the word "VOTE." The next morning I will count the votes and declare a winner. Pretty simple stuff right? So let's see how this goes.


Today's topic: SHADOWS!(see below for explanation)   

Thursday October 2: SHADOWS

AS OF FRIDAY OCTOBER 3RD I WILL BE TAKING A BREAK FROM THE CONCEPT SHOT OF THE DAY CONTEST. I'M TIRED OF ALL THE COMPLAINING, EMAILS, BITCHING, RULES VIOLATIONS AND BULLSHIT THAT HAPPENS AS A RESULT OF THIS CONTEST. I'VE PUT A LOT OF TIME AND EFFORT INTO THIS OVER THE LAST YEAR AND FEEL GOOD ABOUT IT BEING A GREAT WAY TO SHOWCASE YOUR WORK. I NEED A LITTLE TIME TO RE-GROUP AND RE-ENERGIZE FOR THIS.

Explanation: Post your best image that features something or someone that uses SHADOWS. Any shot that has shadows as a setting, an accent, a theme or whatever! Open to your interpretation! All models, photographers, MUA, Stylists, etc are encoraged to participate!!

Voting always ends at midnight(CST)..Model Mayhem time stamp is off by 1 hour short...PLEASE DO NOT VOTE FOR YOURSELF....the idea is to collect votes from your peers.....votes are accepted from all U.S. time zones by midnight. Winner receives Concept Shot of the Day Contest Medallion Logo if interested. Remember when you vote to quote the posting of the photo or link you like best and simply type VOTE!

Congratulations to the winner for Thursday October 3, 2008:

"AS OF FRIDAY OCTOBER 3RD I WILL BE SHUTTING DOWN THE CONCEPT SHOT OF THE DAY CONTEST"

AWWWWWWWWW! Darn! ........ but I understand; my parents told me that when things stop being fun, you should stop doing them.

Mike, THANK YOU! It's been great fun the months I've been here participating!
