OK! Without further delay, in conjunction with Zaia Inc. (a subsidary of Zaia Industries International), I am proud to announce the start of the first ever all-female Aphrodite Headshot Contest!

This contest is for photographic portraits our female posters. Contestants may put as much effort or time into this as they want, but that is not necessary to the competition.

Here are the rules:
(1) This is for headshots. Contestants may have as much or as little of the rest of their bodies as they want, but all contestants entries must have their faces clearly visible and be the central focus of the entry.
(2) All entries must be at minimum no less than 240 x 320 pixels in size, and not larger than 720 x 960 (for our 56kers). Try to aim in the middle. If you need help editting your photos to meet the size constrants, PM a link to the photo online or e-mail it to me at gilhamilton@sluggy.net and I'll resize it.
(3) This contest is all female, so no male entries will be accepted.
(4) There will be a limit of no more than two entries per contestant.

That's it! After all entries that we expect to get are in, I'll announce the closing of the contest a week in advance. Then a seperate thread will be made for voting purposes. Good luck contestants!

Just Head Shots, huh?

I'm deep in the middle of unpacking right now, and haven't had a chance to recharge my camera and take some pics for this, so this, as the best recent photo, will have to do...

Give her credit, killer. You see any other pics in the thread? Besides, as damn cute as Brat is, you should be more than satisfied with what she gave.

I think I'll go with this picture for the soft-focus effect.

You got a little something on your nose, IB.....

I'll post that for now, because it's my favourite. There'll be another in a couple days when I can upload again.

Sorry, jmac, but your entry doesn't comply with the rules of the contest, namely:

(1) This is for headshots. Contestants may have as much or as little of the rest of their bodies as they want, but all contestants entries must have their faces clearly visible and be the central focus of the entry.

I'm sorry but as host of the contest, I'm going to have to disqualify it. That is not a headshot nor is your face the central focus of the image (it's barely in focus, let only the central focus). Please submit an entry that meets all the rules of the contest.

Hey, Aerius-n nice shootin'

Jmac, you're pretty!

It's my personal opinion that you're the cutest so far JMAC.

I suppose I'll use this one, assuming I can't get ahold of a camera soon.

Oh pooh, this contest is as rigged as Olympic figure skating or gymnastics!

Ok, so my face isn't the highlight of the photo but c'mon, it's nicely centered and it's got a nice soft-focus effect. But if you wish I'll see what I can dig up...

I hate pictures, it's kinda old, those that frequented the SDnet chat have probably seen that picture. My face is all funky.. wait, it's always funky. I hate pictures. I don't paint my nails either, that was a pac-dot for nerd day at school, my thumb had a pac-man and my pinky had a ghost. Did i mention i hate pictures?

Here's a better picture:

hey, you're not so bad-lookin', sparky... sure, a little nerdy, but here, that doesn't matter!

SHHHH! Ladies, post your pictures! **whistles nonchalantly**

Most pictures of me are from a distance thus I have few decent headshots and my BF is a horrible portrait photographer so this one will have to do.

Gil, the ladies are posting.

Just post a Link to the appropriate area.

*mumble* Yessir...

Anyway, further discussion about the Aphrodite contest goes here. Please guys, in the future, use it. I'd like to keep this area relatively uncluttered, eh?

Anymore spam will result in me mercilessly deleting anything that remotely resembles spam. First, last, and only warning.
