Take your Best Shot Contest

Is anyone entering the Take your Best Shot contest? What picture are you entering and where abouts is it located? The deadline is tomorrow (Wednesday) to enter your picture for this next week and voting starts on Thursday. When it first started I was able to vote for my own picture but it now does not allow it; so if you enter a picture let me know so I can vote for you. The details of my entry is in my siggie

It is for Canadians only.

If you are entering it now we won't be able to vote on it until thursday. Each weeks contest only runs for a week. You should try to get as many people as you can to vote for you (ie. friends, family etc.) And yes I will vote for you once it is up.

My picture that is up right now is this one and it is about 30-31ish away from the beginning and can get votes until Wednesday night (I think).

Re: Take your Best Shot Contest

Okay, I think this contest is rigged! Last week there was a whale picture that had something like 30,000 votes and it is in the contest again this week under a different users name and in landscape instead of portrait. After an hour of the voting being open it had 5,850 votes, so in an hours time that one picture had more then 600 people voting on it! Hhhhmmmmmmmmmmm sounds a little fishy to me!

If you want to see the picture it is about 1.5" from the end and right beside it is a picture of two long yellow towels with girls laying on them and a small baby laying on a towel between them.

To get votes you have to let your family and friends know to go and vote for you. Otherwise I don't think enough votes would come in because I would think most people go to that site because of specific pictures to begin with
