Dark Image of the Day Competition for 08/24/10

TODAY'S THEME: "Enigma"
Next Theme: "TBD"



THE PURPOSE

To showcase the essence of art that is more defined by and risen from the shadowed realms of the emotive, persona and psyche.

THE RULES:

1 - DO NOT POST IMAGES - ONLY LINKS TO KEEP THINGS FAIR
2 - Stay on topic with the posted theme though artistic interpretation is welcome
3 - Mark links to mature images (blood, bondage, nudity) with "18+"
4 - Only one entry per person each day
5 - Only one vote per person each day
6 - No voting for yourself
7 - No spamming others to vote for a specific image
8 - Past winning images are not allowed to enter

HOW TO ENTER

Using today's theme as a guide, look through your personal images (on MM or elsewhere) and find one that best fits the theme.  Artistic interpretation of the theme is welcome but do not select a non-related image just to post something.  Then, copy either the image or page link and post it in the thread.  Do not use [IMG] tags to post the image.  If it contains anything the MM rules deem as mature (blood, bondage, nudity, etc), then please mark the link with "18+".  You may also add a brief editorial about the image, if you wish.

HOW TO VOTE

Voting starts at noon PST (MM Time or 3pm EST) and ends the next morning (approximately 4am EST) when the votes are tallied.  To vote, simply quote your favorite entry and type "VOTE" below it.  After the day's competition ends, the host will tally the votes and post the winner of the day.  In the case of a tie, the hosts will choose the image that best reflects the day's theme that is not their own.

Hosts: DVS (M-F) & Visually Odd Photo (Sa & Su)
