Neko and Calenatarion are bringing back the photocontest, but they are going to need a bit of your help.

It's coming back my fellow Seibertronians!

The PhotoContest!

And we've added a new twist. Each contest will follow the same basic concepts of the old contest. However, instead of three of the staff members soley deciding the winners one of you will be chosen every months to be a guest judge along with me and one other staff member, Calenatarion.

So here's your chance to be apart of it!

If you want to be a guest judge for the upcoming and future contests post you name here!

The way in which a name will be chosen will be completly random. Once you have been a guest judge though, you will not be considered to be on for a future contest and will be taken from this list.

If you have any questions please feel free to PM me and I will do my best to answer them.

Thanks and remember to have fun!

Just a few questions about the rules:
1) Backgrounds CANNOT be screens, right? But say you printed out the image and stuck it to a Bristol board behind the figures and snapped a photo - is that acceptable?

2) Are we allowed to use Transformer figures that we've customized?

1)Hm...never thought about that. I don't see why you couldn't. So yeah.

2)Yes. Kickbashes and customs are all acceptible.



I'll be posting the contest rules later tonight so stay tuned for those.

Thanks, I look forward to reading them!

I just remember someone complaining some other time about how the rules didn't specify or something like that.

2)Yes. Kickbashes and customs are all acceptable.

Cool just checking.

Oh, and one more thing:
Has a subject been decided yet, or are you guys still taking idea suggestions?

I don't mind being a guest judge, as long as I get to use the ugly Quintesson face when I say a picture is guilty.

I haven't decided on a specific idea as of yet.

You can add suggestions in this thread here:

And while it is allowed, I am going to discourage useing the printed pout backgrounds. They rarely ever come out well and tend to make the photo itself rather sloppy. However it's you're choice and if you can do it and make it look awesome; more power to you.

I'd like to be a guest judge at some point, if that's ok.

Don't worry, I'm not considering it. I was only asking if it was, is all. :PEACE:

I'd like to be a judge. I have entered photo contests here before and I know what to look for. Better yet, I'll respond right away so it won't take weeks to get my scores.

Check out the NEW Photo Contest Discussion Thread in TF Toys Forum. We're already throwing a bunch of good ideas around!

PS. Mods, maybe we should link the discussion thread to the announcement. :)
