AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around a photo contest themed "Element of Danger," where participants are encouraged to submit digital photos that clearly relate to this theme. Contest rules specify that only one photo per member is allowed, and it must be original work taken by the participant. Photos should be resized to specific dimensions, and only minimal adjustments like brightness and contrast are permitted. The contest will culminate in a voting process to determine the best photo. Additionally, there is a light-hearted exchange about a participant's cat, named Gizmo, with comments on its appearance, showcasing a blend of contest seriousness and community interaction.

A Element Of Danger[/color][/size]

You get to interpret this in your own way. However, please make sure that your photo can clearly be tied to the phrase of our theme without needing any explanation.

Zz.

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.

I can't get into Canada, and Dan can't get into the US. How do I get an element of PF Danger?

You can probably buy PF_3 gas somewhere, and it's already pretty dangerous.

Thank you! He's my boy, curmudgeon that he is. His name is Gizmo and he's 14.

I never noticed that they look like plugs, but they really do, lol.

Just out of range for the camera to focus with the flash. I wasn't about to get any closer.
