Taking pictures of watches can be exciting! I tried to take some today, and that's what happened. My bag flies off into the river. Good job it was empty... d'oh! But I know myself, had I tried to grab it, I'd have smacked my Orsa into the water... better not worry about an Ikea bag that costs only a few bob! So, watch out, when you're taking your pictures!

Just one question. My English isn't the best, just to be certain: Do we send you the pictures and you upload them to photobucket, or do we do that and then send you the link? |

Apologies for any confusion. Send entries to the email address in the first post of this thread. This is a monthly contest. you have until June 8th to get your entries in and then we vote for a week. Again, the pictures should be at 800X600 or as close as possible. They will be hosted on a PB account set for 800X600. The entries are coming in slowly. Don't dilly-dally and get you pix in!! |

Steven, I would think it's best we upload the pix by Photobucket in much the same way we post pix here. Makes it more convenient for the judges to place entries side by side on their screens. I think had you fallen into the water, for sure you'd have your left wrist just above the waterline as you swam back with one arm to shore . Your Orsa could have taken the water, of course.;) |

Wow, great contest with a superb Boschett Cave Dweller as the first place prize. I have got to figure out how to post my watch pictures and then do so. As a minimum everyone at 3T should thank Keith for the opportunity to win such a stellar watch; thanks Keith! hand6.gifhand6.gif |

Remember to size them per the instructions. 3T will post and host. Look back at some of the prior contests to get an idea of the format.:D |

Hi Guys. I just submitted my photos...woohooo..... I had to redo them all because this old brain forgot the picture resolution rules by 3T and shot a first batch with much, much too heavy resface4.gifolution. When I remembered, the better lighting was gone  . So, let's have fun guys!!! |

Thanks, Oscar and Pax. I didn't know that could be done that way. I did it the jurassic and wrong way, I guess. First, I set my camera resolution to comply with the rules; second, took the shots and lastly sent the photo straight to 3T as an attachment. Thanks for the tip you just gave. Will recover in the 2nd round.;););) |
