Matte Watch – Weekly Digital Photo Contest
July 2009, marks the start of weekly photo contests which give you chances to win prizes weekly, monthly, and even yearly. This contest will be weekly going forward. Check this week to see what the current contest details in its requirements. Check out the details on our monthly and yearly prizes as we post information on those contests as well.
The first contest will be based on selecting from submissions of the best scenery photos. Competition is open to all digital photographers who wish to enter their best picture of an impressive local scenic area. Requirements include submitting photos in .JPG format, less than 4mb file size, and uniquely named to keep pictures from being overwritten.
When your upload is completed, send an email to the email address on the photo mat site telling us the name of your photo file, a description of where your shot was taken, and mention your desire to enter our weekly photo contest. Do not try to enter the contest by attaching your picture to an email message; we cannot guarantee photos from emails will be submitted for the contest.
The top 3 winners will be selected each weekend, with contestants notified by email. Prizes awarded will be posted to the site for downloading. For winners who do not wish to keep their prizes posted on our site, notify us by email that you wish to have your prize removed from view. We will also reserve the right to refuse any inappropriate or substandard submissions from contest consideration.
Weekly winners will be acknowledged by a first, second, and third place digital award, including their name, winning date, the prize winning photo, and photo location information where available. The top 3 weekly winners will automatically be eligible to compete in the monthly contest, within the month of their weekly entry. See our monthly contest posting for details about monthly prizes available. As we post the winning entries on Saturday, we will also announce any changes to the theme for the next week's contest.
Lack of participation at any contest level may lead to prizes at that level not being awarded, but lower participation increases your chances for winning. Get started winning free prizes made from your favorite pictures. There will never be better chances for you to win than right now, so don't wait...enter today.
