Smile 2003 AF Model Of The Year Contest

Its that time again !!

PLEASE read this over and over before you post a question etc

Cheers
PMan


"AF's 2003 MODEL OF THE YEAR"

The rules will be ....


*Only open to AF members who have joined AF BEFORE the 1st December 2003
*Must be a model built this year (2003) by a AF member before the 31st December 2003.
*Entry will open on the 1st December and close on 31st December 2003...NO models will be accepted before this date
*One photo only will be posted...so make it a good one.
*The photo MUST be uploaded from AF
*Only ONE model per person
*The contest will be open to the FIRST 40 MODELS I RECEIVE due to the amount of people that are members on AF. So you will need to be quick if you want to enter. (This may change if we get flooded with entries)
*Open to cars and bikes only.
*The Modeling Mods decision will be FINAL
*This is run as a Peoples Choice contest.....no category for different models


HOW TO ENTER.

*Two photos to be sent by Private Message to .....Me, "Primera Man"
*ONE photo for the contest…the SECOND photo to show that the model is yours. Take a photo of the model with you’re A.F name on a piece of paper with the model to prove it’s yours
*Photo's only...no text


HOW TO VOTE.

*Once all the cars have been intered I will make a thread at the start of the year.
*Each model will have a number to vote beside it, and the person who built the kit.
*To vote, simply send a PM to me with your vote....NO OTHER VOTES WILL BE ALLOWED
*You can vote for THREE (3) MODELS
1st=3pts
2nd=2pts
3rd=1pt


*Only AF members can vote that are members BEFORE the 31st December 2003. This will also stop people logging on with different names to vote again. If a vote is suspect, I can check it out and it will be deleted along with the entry of the model.
*You CAN NOT vote for your own model
*The thread will be locked so you can view them only.
*My idea of this is so that it will ONLY have the pics of the models.
*It stop's people from voting twice from other computer's etc
*Stop's any AF Mod from deleting or changing the votes......You guys will have to trust me on this !!!
*This way if the poll is changed in any way I will know as I will have all the votes.
*The judges vote will be FINAL.
*In the event of a tie...i will go through the votes to see who had the most 3pt votes to get a winner.
*The updates of voting will be posted every 1-2 days
*Voting will finish on the 31st January 2004 and the winner can then show off as much as they like !!!


I will enter the contest, but in the event of myself coming first, the runner up will receive the prize

I will give a prize out to the winner.

I'll buy a kit of some kind (A new Tamiya/Revell/Fujimi), also some compound, tape etc ….. and will send it to the winner.
Chris (flyonthewall) has also very kindly decided to give one of his SAS kits as a prize also
Tonioseven will add a prize also.

If any body else wishes to add a prize…..let us know so it can be added to the winners list !!

So stay tuned for the kit i get !!

Remember....this is just abit of FUN.....Don’t flame me or others if things don’t go your way. I'm doing this for SOMETHING THAT I HOPE YOU WILL ALL ENJOY AGAIN.
As I said before...you guys will have to trust me on this one with the voting. The only person that will see the voting will be Myself or the other modeling mods if I decide I need a hand with a decision. All I ask is for you all to be honest and help out our own little "AF Model Club"

Last years A.F.M.O.T.Y was a huge success and hopefully this years will be even better.

You can help out by adding the contest into all of your sigs to remind people

Cheers
Modeling Mods


PS...This thread will be made a sticky soon

Re: 2003 AF Model Of The Year Contest

Max pixel size, please? P-man, you don't want to resize so many pictures, do you?
640x480, 800x600 or 1024x768 ?
Also, multiple images (for example front and rear) in one picture is permitted, right?


<Tip for new members>
* Web camera is no go. Arrange to borrow a digicam or SLR from your friends before the contest.
* Good lighting will greatly improve the photo.
* Don't try to fill the view finder with a model to take a close up photo, or the image might turn out blurry. Try to focus first, then crop the image with a photo editing software.

Since you have to upload the images to AF galleries, I would imagine the limiting factor would be the size of the image you can upload there.

It`s that time again already?! Unfortunately, I won`t be able to participate, or atleast build something special for this. I am looking forward to seeing what gets entered this year though, and I am sure it will be spectacular!
