About Monthly Scavenger Hunt

Purpose of the group: On the first of each month there will be a list of 20 items that you need to catch in a photograph. Some months may have themes, most won't. All through the month the members may access the voting booth and rate each photo on a scale of 1 to 10 using their own ideas about how the photo fits the category. Although this isn't a requirement of the group, it's fun and gives all members an equal chance at msh stardom. No videos allowed.

When you finish, be sure to look for your MSH Seal of Approval. You will receive yours once you have posted your finished mosaic in the discussion threads (no seals are given in the first week of a new hunt).



Thanks to Anne (www.flickr.com/photos/mrsmagic/) for April's seals!

Rules (so you know how to have fun while you play MSH)

#1. The pictures you post have to be taken by you or in your personal archive. Photos only, no videos.

#2. You can add to the group pool at any time during the month but all photos have to be posted no later than 11:59pm (in your local time zone) the last day of the month.

#3. We do have some younger members, so please no nudity, porn or extremely foul language.

#4. Have fun!

#5. Only one photo per item, although you can have more than one item in a photo...see Lucymay's classic with 11 items in one shot or ::Black&White's image with 20 items in one shot!

#6. Please feel free to replace any of your photos as you'd like - but please remove the old photo from the pool, as well as the tags. The admins are very dependent on the tags to help sort everything out at the end.

#7. Have fun! Repeated for effect - If you're looking for a highly competitive, cut-throat group, then please keep on looking. Every one of the admins and participants is here for one reason - to have have fun. We welcome all, and hope that you're here for the same reason, as well.

#8. The admin are not responsible for assuring that your photos are posted to the group pool, or that your tags are correct. These two things are very important at the end of the hunt if you want your entries counted and voted upon. It is also necessary for your photos to be "Public" to be included in the hunt. The member's section of the Voting Booth can help you verify that your photos are being counted correctly.
