Beginning with the contest on 1/2/12, we will have a winner's gallery thread. It will be assumed that you grant permission to have your image (if a winner) posted in the winner's thread unless you advise otherwise.
Today's (10/12/12) theme is "T-Shirts". Post your best image of a human model that includes a T- Shirt. Important note: We are limiting the contest to T- Shirts. Other attire, like tanks and wife beaters will not be accepted (they will be done in the near future).
Monday's (10/15/12) theme will be "Abundance". Post your best image of a human model that portrays something in abundance.
A winner's medallion is available for the winner's profile page (past winners may also receive it).
Here are the rules. Please read them before participating.
1. One entry per person per day.
2. One vote per person per day.
3. No bumping your entry.
4. No voting before 12:00 PM MM time (Pacific) unless page 2 has been reached. 5. No collages or multiple images.
*6. No editorial comments that accompany your entry.* This includes image titles. Credits are fine. 7. No vote stacking. DO NOT recruit votes! 8. Voting will end at 4:59 AM MM time (Pacific) the following morning.
9. "M" (18+) images must be linked and noted as per MM rules. 10. No voting for an image you participated in creating.
11. To vote, quote the entry you wish to vote for and type "Vote".
12. Images that are past winners of a daily theme are not eligible to be entered if that theme is repeated. This applies to images that have won on or after 1/2/12.
Please PM me with any questions, concerns, suggestions or concept ideas. Let's have fun!
* There has been an increasing amount of editorial comments lately. The idea of the contest is to portray the concept with an image and no words. It is fine, however, to credit those who worked on the image.
There have also been too many rule #9 violations lately. This could result in the thread being locked and is not fair to those who abide by the rules. Please abide by the MM rules for forum posting or more stringent action may be taken.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the CSoD participants who have expressed well wishes about my health. I didn't realize the contest participants knew about it until I was counting votes in some contests the last few days. To give a "Reader's Digest" version, I was injured on a shoot in Hawaii and it turned out to be more serious than I first thought. After poor care in a Maui hospital I flew home and was admitted to a great hospital here. I have been released and expect to eventually recover.
Timillia did a great job with the contest in my absence!
After reading below I realized the T-shirt image I posted had no "T" in it , lol , I changed the image to an 18 + ... I don't have many images of models with clothes on .

...and how is your definition of a Tee Shirt if not for the Tee shirt in my photo?
T-shirt- a garment worn on the upper half of the body.
Noun 1. T-shirt - a close-fitting pullover shirt

Oh well...
Because a T-shirt is called a T-shirt because with the shape of the short sleeves, it resembles the letter T. Without sleeves, it's not a T-shirt. What you posted would be an I-shirt. Not to be confused with an iShirt, which would have an Apple logo on it.

Yes, T-shirts have sleeves (usually short). Half the entries in here are tank tops (which are sleeveless) (and in one case, a basketball jersey). OP specifically states NOT to post those images, as that may be a future contest theme. I'm fine with being the dick that points this out, but I finally hit the point of not saying anything about how many entries don't even qualify for the theme of the day since pretty much no one else seems to. Yes, this is for fun and all, but at lease fit the theme. Sorry to those I may have riled up. </rant>

LOL!
I have learned something today I think.
My father counselled me a long time ago...when you stop learning it is time to die.
Thank you for your input, SW.

At least today's photos all had models in them. That's an improvement. Now can you get all riled up about the people who repeatedly vote early?
