I don't think that I saw a topic requirement. Do you just send in whatever you want?

Maybe I will read it again. Closer. And pay attention this time.

Prophet out.

No topic requirements. I was hoping no one would see this. Only bad this is the prize is in store credit. I'd probably end up buying $2500 bucks worth of diapers.

I think you'll be OK, they have a thin candy shell. I'm surprised you didn't know that.

Nic - Sorry I mentioned it ... store credit is okay, I see a big screen t.v. in some TPF'ers home by Christmas !!!! Now the only problem is deciding which photo to submit that I think that might even come close to being competitive.

Costco Contest Submissions - 11-02-2006, 11:54 AM


Wondering if anybody else submitted an entry and if they're willing to share what they entered. Here's what I entered (minus of course the matting and frame I've created here) ...

Any suggestions or comments for improvement always appreciated.

I noticed the part about the image becoming their property. I'm wondering exactly what this means.

Drat! Randy, by posting your reply above I thought this was a current contest. It ended on 9/30/06.

Foiled again.

That is a cool shot, though. Did you add the mist in PS or through the use of filters?
