*The Original* 200 Views / Discuss

SuperDave!! says:

EVERY FRIDAY the admins and previous contest winners (judges) will spotlight on our 200 Views' Home Page what we think are the best 200+ View photos "200 Views" has to offer! You are an artist whether you realize it or not and we'd like to spotlight you and your talent on our homepage!

WINNER REWARDS:

1. Your photo will be large enough (on our homepage) where others can't help but to find out more about you and view your other photos. This will allow you to get more exposure and possibly reach "200+ Views" status on your other photos.

2. We'll include the name of the Weekly Contest Winner in the Group Pool's MAIN TITLE HEADING so you'll know if you've won or not on your next "200 Views" upload or the next time you visit our home page at:
www.flickr.com/groups/200views/

3. All winners will be included in our 200 Views Weekly Winners Blog at: 200 Views Winner's Blog

3. Winners of the weekly contest will have an option of becoming a judge of "200 Views" and will have THE RIGHT TO JUDGE OTHER WEEKLY CONTESTANTS. We'll will have an infinite number of judges to make the contest really fun!

Judges place their votes by submitting their favorite photograph to a private group once a week. Majority rules. If there is no majority, a final decision is made by the administrator of this group.
----------------------------------------------------------

CONTEST ENTRY INSTRUCTIONS:

1. All contest entries are to be posted here---in this post ONLY.
2. Post ONLY ONE photograph (one the you have personally taken) of what you think is your best 200+ View photograph FOR THAT WEEK. You may re-enter your photo for any given week if you HAVE NOT been named a winner for any particular photograph. Former contest winners CANNOT RE-ENTER the contest as we'd like to give everyone a chance to win. Photo entries can be in MEDIUM FORMAT (500 x 282) size average or below.
3. Answer 3 simple questions when you enter your photograph:

1) What is the very BEST thing you like about your photograph?
2) What camera did you use to take the photograph?
3) What is the very LEAST thing you like about your photograph?

4) Post your photograph!! Most of all have fun doing it! It's all in fun. You are all winners in my book anyway!!

OTHER NOTES:

DEADLINES:
Judges will make a final decision by Thursday of every week to determine a winner for the following Friday (week). You have until Midnight Wednesday (Pacific Standard Time), (8:00am Thursday-UTC/GMT) to post your entry for that week. Worldclock/

***************************************************************************

Note: Don't forget to answer these 3 simple questions...
1) What is the very BEST thing you like about your photograph?
2) What camera did you use to take the photograph?
3) What is the very LEAST thing you like about your PHOTOGRAPH?

Some people seem to be having problems with question #3. We are looking for something specific about the photo itself that you dislike.
It is very important that you answer these questions. Saying there is nothing that you dislike about the photo is not answering the question and will result with your photo being disqualified.



*************************************************************************

Also Note that when you post your photo below, it must link back to it's Flickr's photo page. We need to be able to verify that it has at least 200 views and that it is your photo. If we can't find it in your photo stream, it will be disqualified.

When posting your photo below, click on the "All Sizes" tab, then "medium" size, then scroll down to Option 1, and Copy and paste this HTML into the box below. This will leave an image which will link back to your Flickr photo page.
