Hey
I was just wondering if you knew where you can view any of the last years entries if any for this contest. I searched their website but couldn’t find anything leading to it. I googled the contest but didn’t find anything but if you know how I can find any past contests similar to this one that would be great. Thanks so so much. I just found your site and I love it. Again, I really appreciate your help.
BTW, do you know if they allow you to photoshop any of your photos (minimal, crop, bw, sepia, ect.)? If you don’t know I can just ask. Thanks again.
Andrew, on June 26th, 2009 at 9:09 am Said:

Amber, thanks for your comments and questions. Sorry but I do not know where you can see their last year entries. I think that minimal photoshop is allowed but you shoudl read their terms and conditions for this.
Good luck!

ok so if if we plan plan entering this competition our photos have to be taken “IN” one of the 60 cities?
Andrew, on August 28th, 2009 at 7:56 am Said:

Yes, Lisa, I think you are right
Marley, on September 27th, 2009 at 8:46 am Said:

I did a photoshoot of a friend of mine who is an aspiring fashion model but we literally live just outside of San Francisco. The photos weren’t technically taken IN san francisco but 15 minutes away… which is utterly frustrating. Is there any chance at all that they can still be submitted?
Andrew, on September 27th, 2009 at 10:55 pm Said:

Marley, I think you can submit but I cannot be 100% sure as I am not the organizer.
