About Official Hair Fair 2011 Photo Contest II

1. This contest will run from 9th July - 16th July.

* The photo must be taken at one of the four Hair Fair sims inworld.

* The photo must include you or another avatar in the photo, posed on one or more of the aDORKable poseballs set up at the location. If using another avatar in the photo, you must have the permission of that avatar to take their picture and enter it into the contest - by submitting the picture the Hair Fair Committee trusts that that is the case.

* The person in the photo MUST be wearing hair purchased at Hair Fair 2011, and must include the name of the hairstyle and the store it is purchased from in the description of the photo on Flickr.

Photos submitted to this contest must have been uploaded to flickr since the start of the contest. Photos older than the start date will be declined...we want fresh focus and a definite passion for the contest.


2. Feel free to enhance your shot in the photo editing program of choice, but don't include any text or brands/logos. We don't want to see vendor images here or store logos in the background - other than those on the builds and advertising at Hair Fair 2011.

We wont be judging your photos on how little or much you know of PS or GIMP, rather the feel of the picture and the capture itself.That being said, please do not "over process", we want to be able see the poses/fair grounds and you.

3. Keep your photos at a maximum of 1024 pixels by 1024 pixels square. You must tag all photos Hair Fair 2011, aDORKable Poses, VR Studio, What's New SL, ( Hair Store Name of Hair Worn ) - when you upload your pictures, there is a tag box, so just copy paste the info in there before you upload...or you will find an 'add a tag' option on the right side of the screen below your picture.

4. Photos may only be entered once, and only the person entering the photo is eligible to win. The same photo may not be entered by more than one person. You must have full ownership rights to the photo you are entering. If it was taken by someone else, then you must be allowed to use it in this manner. Check with the photographer before entering because any disputes of ownership of a photo will result in disqualification.

5. Entrants are limited to a total of 5 entries. Enter only your very best photos, as swapping out will not be allowed. We will be keeping track of who enters what, and swapping out your photos after submission will result in your disqualification. We want to make it fair to everyone.

6. In the description of each photo you enter, please include:
* Your Second Life avatar name
* Model
* Photographer
* Hair Style Name and Store
* Poses by aDORKable Poses

7. All photos must be entered by Midnight SLT on 16th July, at that time uploads WILL be disabled.

8. Winners will be announced by 22nd July on the website and Flickr.

9. No Nudity, this is a charity event to raise money for Children, naked pictures and pictures that the committee deem inappropriate will not be accepted, the committee's say on this is final.

The hair you wear in your photos must be one of the styles only available at Hair Fair 2011, the photo must be clear enough that there is no doubt to what style it is to the judges, based on the info you provide - hairstyle name and store.
