One little question, could we use photoshop for special effects?

I would rather you not, but there is nothing in the contest rules against it.

Okay well I will send you a pm with the picture and the special effect, it's not a huge adjustment though I think it's really fitting but if you don't want me to I can send you the picture without the effect <3

Question! The rules include, "All files should be 500×375 or 375×500." The word "should" is used rather than "must"; does this mean it's a suggestion and not a requirement? Would dimensions such as 500x330 be allowed?

Ooo good question Chris!

I've got one of my own: does our photograph need to elicitly answer both questions? Like, the "favorite part" scene I'm going with right now could still be argued to be from a country other than what I'm implying, do I need to throw a flag in the background or something?

@Chris - Yea, a picture less then that is fine too.

@Little Su - no, the picture doesnt need to answer both.

Does it matter what file extension we use?

Nope, it doesnt matter. Though I do like .png myself.

Good to know! I've seen other contests at other places that ask for a certain file type, but I'm glad I can use .png.

Thanks for the quick reply!

Did my entry go through? I had a lot of trouble with my e-mail when I was sending it last night.

I emailed mine earlier today and just remembered that I forgot to add Morgan's name to the subject line.

@Pinkcow - I got your entry. I just havent updated the list yet.

@Mckenna - Yea, I got your too.

Just sent in my entry. Please let me know if you have any trouble w/the attachment.

Thanks!
