Photo Contest 2019

Post by jim in paris »

Admin: Better late than never: here is the thread to put your pics for the 2019 photo contest.

=== =================
RULES:

To be eligible, the photo needs to be somehow spintop related, taken in 2019, and either taken by a member of the board or featuring a member of the board. If the photographer is not a member the prize goes to the player in the photograph. Otherwise it goes to the photographer. The winner will be selected by a poll on the board. Deadline to nominate a photo is December 31, 2019, 23:59:59 GMT-11. Voting will take place the first week of January.

That's it as far as rules. We recommend that those proposing a picture also give them a name/title/caption. This administrator reserves the right to give it a name or caption if none is given ;D

Previous winners were:

2010: Kevinm (yocephus) with Leggy Corkscrew
2011: Takeshi with Takeshi's World
2012: Neff with Top Face
2013: Hrosik with Dizzy Giraffe
2014: Mark Hayward with Boomerang
2015: Jay with: Eli sees dots
2016/7: Segundo with: Trompos en el cielo
2018: SpinLynn with: Spin Joy

====================

here is my 1st entry : shot in Britanny , a "crystal" diet-BK made by Eric a few years ago

Cuper had posted this on his facebook page. I think it should be a contender.

Very nice photos, Mermouy. But 2018 photos cannot compete, only 2019.

I need to get into this and make a proper thread for the contest with photos . . .

I'm sorry, I never started a proper thread for this. I'm in Uruguay now with little time to be online. You can nominate photos here until the end of the year.

"I need to get into this and make a proper thread for the contest with photos . . ."

So there will be an official thread?

Can you enlighten me on the best way(s) to post pics on this board?

I edited the thread with the rules at the top.
Post your pictures anyway you want and I will later clean it.
I will try to nominate good photos people have posted during the year, but everybody else is welcome to nominate others, besides their own.

Here are instructions on posting photos: How to Post pictures on the forum

This is now the official thread to nominate photos. After the nomination period finishes, I will make a new thread just for voting.

Ahh! A picture from my neck of the woods. An interesting side comment is that gray cement building in the background now has a very giant and very colorful mural that says "Welcome to Miamisburg." It will be a great place for photos when people come to our fair city.
