The 'I don't know how to call this contest'-contest

A couple of days I announced in chat to sponsor a contest if a certain source was chosen.

The source image, Young Daredevil, was submitted by St1n3r featuring his son Christopher, and will open on 27th July.

The contest will be a normal contest (non-anonymous)
Permission has been granted to release the source to ALL users

(keep in mind that as non-advantaged you will only be able to post it upon contest opening)

I do require a little bit of help from you people:
I really would like this to be an unofficial reunion contest and have as many entries as possible!

Veteran choppers who haven't chopped anymore, start chopping!
Veteran choppers who still chop, start chopping!
New choppers who haven't chopped much, start chopping!
Every other chopper not mentioned above, start chopping!
People who don't consider themselfs as a chopper, start chopping!
Spammers, get bent!


And for those who know how to contact lost choppers, contact them and persuade them to enter too. (facebook, email, twitter, postal services, tam tam, spam...)


The Prizes:
1 year advantage for 1st place.
3 months advantage for the highest scoring non-advantaged user.
3 months advantage for an additional winner chosen by Christopher (the young one in the image )
*update 3/07/09: Only 1 prize per user, next in line will be chosen in case of double wins

A few notes:
Winners will be contacted by me once contest is over
If you win you will have the opportunity to chose another user to give the prize to in case you don't need it (or feel generous).

Got more questions:
feel free to post them here

Listed as a Facebook event, feel free to add your RSVP there

I've already entered one image for it... second one in the works...

Thanks again, Grefix!
Perfect idea: 3 months advantage for the highest scoring non-advantaged user.

Great picture St1n3r... and a very good looking sporty son!

Show off

source is now made available in the opening post (thanks Procyon!)

I have posted an entry already, because it was one of my favorite images on the calender these weeks. My dad bought me the advantage I am using now, so I don't need to win a prize, but it sure would be cool to give away the prize. Great to see it is used as a reunion chop.

how does the contest goes? I mean,does it have new rules on it or it is the same like what we used to do...


Thats a great price...

Normal rules apply, conaircon.

Contest open for everyone, voting is public.

The only thing to be considered is that non advantage people will not be able to post before it actually opens, but they can already get started with chopping (so make sure you save your entry somewhere where you can easily find it back ).

Ok..thanks Grefix..

Is it ok to post this information on the Monkeys Facebook page and send message to all fans? Maybe the other teams who made facebook pages and do the same that way we can reach a lot of people. Cool idea Grefix. Nice work.

sure thing, the more people know, the better

Well, This is cool.
Just doing this for fun or is there a back story?

Caffeine overdose made me say that in chat, and I'm a man of my word

But basically, St1ner mentioned his kid was in one of the vote sources. And I went: 'Well, if it's chosen, I'll attach a prize to it'

And then suddenly votes went up for that image, and one thing led to another

On a side note, If you have not yet "friended" me at Photoshop Place, please send your request and include your PSC screen name so I know who you are, and I'll be happy to add you!

Please help spread the word! Any MySpace users out there? Tell your friends on MSN!

I still got that list of 250 members from the scavhunt so I will start pming them once again...we do need a multi pming thingy guys.

Great idea Fixa...Im in
