Too Cute[/color][/size]


This weeks contest should be easier, the topic is things that are just *too cute*. It may be living or an inanimate objects.

Contest Rules:

1. Any digital photo or digitally-scanned photo relevant to the theme will be accepted within the contest period. In case there's a gray area, or you're not sure if the picture is suitable, check with me first.

2. Please resize your digital photo to no more than 800 x 600 or 600 x 800 pixels. You may also crop your picture if you wish. You are also allowed to adjust the brightness and contrast of your picture but these should not dramatically alter the look of the picture. But other than those, any form of picture editing or modification is not allowed. This is a photo contest, not a picture editing/special effect contest. You may add a watermark or your name/nickname to the photo for identification purposes.

3. Upload your photos to any of the photo servers such as imageshack or photobucket. Then post it the relevant contest thread and link your picture using the img command. PM me if you do not know how.

4. Only ONE picture per member per contest. Once a picture is posted, it cannot be changed other than a total withdrawl by that member from that week's photo contest. Exceptions will be made for modification to comply with the rules, such as resizing.

5. At the end of the contest period, I will open a poll and every PF member can vote for the picture they like best.

6. Note that in case we have a large number of entries, I will do the polling in more than one thread. If that's the case, you can vote in each of the polling threads. The photos will be assigned in the polling threads in the order they were submitted.

7. These pictures must be something that you took, not something taken off someone else's photo albums or taken by someone else. I have no way of checking if you did this, so we'll go by the honor system.

8. You can use a picture only once. Once it is used in a contest, it cannot be reused in another contest.

9. Please post only pictures meant for submission in this thread. Photos not meant for submission must not be posted in the contest thread. Posting of more than one photos by a member may result in an automatic disqualification from the week's contest.

This photo is from later that year, after a day of motocross practice at a local track. Fun days!

I had no idea you had a son! He's so cute! You're a lucky dad and he's a lucky son. :approve:

Evo, please remind me again how to post pics so that they don't just show up as a thumbnail. I was told once before but didn't write it down and I remember thinking that it was easily the worst method I had ever seen on any forum I've ever been on, but since everybody uses it, it can't be ALL that hard, just non-intuitive.

Thanks,

Paul

Thanks micromass


I am an EXTREMELY biased parent and think my son is exceptionally cute. This pic may not be quite fair, since it is about 25 years old and he's now 6'4' (I told him at 6' 0" that if he kept it up I was going to hurt him 'cause it wasn't fair that he was so much taller than me, but he didn't listen).

I have a TON of pics showing him in all his cuteness but this is one of my favorites because I built the kiddy-car he's riding.

Hey Paul,

As long as it is posted online, you can either use that brown rectangular "picture frame" icon in the bottom row (just click on it and paste the URl) and submit, or use and tags around the url. Hope that helps!

Edit:Ok, I'm too late.

And that's Too Cute! Awesome kiddy car, BTW!

It rarely happen that I vote randomly, and seems like it's going to happen this time.

Scout is so small that her arm fits in the space between tiles.

Sigh. He is in the background, on the right.

Most likely using a remote to take a picture.
