Imporant note: Myself and Rachael Jay, and Blue Ash film group will be taking over while Micheal is on break. If your picture doesn't fit the contest any of us have the power to DQ it.
Anyone in violation of the rules will be DQ'd please take a look at the rules especially number 8 before posting!!! Also no talking back and forth in here and no editorial comments. Specifically note rule 8


***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!

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: CEmeTRY/DEATH!(see below for explanation)
Friday October 17-  Cemetery/Death



Explanation: Post your best image that features the concept of cemetry/death!!

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!

So much for the whole "no editorial comments" rule... :sigh: 

Even if it's 3 words describing your shot, folks, it counts.  Photos only please.  If you feel you must type words, type something like, "My entry for [date]:"

Thanks.

You're kidding right?  That's just wrong and an extremely tight interpretation of rules.  This competition just got a lot less fun, and I base whether I want to play in a fun competition on whether it actually is fun or not.

Ok, I'm gone.  And I'm gonna say something I've never said before, and in fact preach against.

I won't be back.

I'm sorry you feel that way.  BUT, the rule was put in place for a reason... and that reason was that in the past, it seemed that some people voted for an image based on the 'story' that went with it, and for MANY of us, that makes this a lot less fun (and rather unfair, as sometimes, many people didn't feel the image was worthy of voting for, but the story was). 

An editorial comment is an editorial comment.  It can be 1 word, 1 sentence, or one paragraph... but either way, the rules were broken, and it wouldn't be fair to the people who have made an effort to NOT break the rules if we allowed certain exceptions. 

Edit (4:43P CST) - Anyone who has edited out their editorial comments may still play.
