Right you lots - pull your finger's out - eight entries last time? Pah!

Mimi hopes for. Nay, Mimi expects at least twice as many this time!

This month's theme, chosen by Richard Gaywood, is:'BLACK AND WHITE'.

Mimi paraphrasing Richard Gaywood wrote:

'Though the theme is 'black and white', photos shoud not be wholly dependant on being in monochrome. Think laterally and explore contrast of content and texture, light and dark, etc. Photos in monochrome are still, of course, welcomed, but this shouldn't be the sole focus of the black and white theme.

Here's how to take part:

1]Take a picture, based on the theme (think direct, think laterally - it doesn't matter - it's your idea and creativity that people are looking forward to seeing)

2]Upload it anonymously to the Eggwan account (obviously, don't call it 'Mimi's picture of black and white' (ho ho to the cheeky scamp that called their photo 'mimi's picture of some glass, last time, too!' or anything that makes it too obviously yours)

3]Try not to make it too obvious that a picture is yours in particular by announcing your upload, etc.

Upload your 'BLACK AND WHITE' photos to the same-titled folder in the Eggwan Gallery. (If you would like to take part in this contest and do not have the username and password to sign in to the Eggwan gallery for anonymous uploading, please PM me for details*).

This contest ends at 11:59pm on Sunday 3rd August. Good luck and happy snapping!

(*PM-ing me, rather than asking in-thread just means that I am much less likely to miss your request, but it also means that it is far less likely that people will know which picture is yours by the fact that it was uploaded a short time after you asked

)

Oh, er - I DID change it straight away - but what I seem to have done is, instead of editingteh first post, quoting the whole post or something. I don't know.

Do we sticky these or just the vote threads? I've forgotten....

Both please, Craster.

Cheers, big ears.

Vote thread is un-stickied at the end of the vote period.

The white zone is for loading and unloading only. There is no parking in the red zone.

I've taken the huff after getting no points whatsoever last time. No entry this time I'm afraid.

Except when I give in later and put up something (breaking strain of a soggy Kit Kat)

I might do a photo for once, Ive always wanted to but sometimes Ive missed the deadline or the subject never appears to me. But I really think I could do something this time.

Should I type the subject in EVEN BIGGER WRITING next time?

I think he meant 'appeals'...

Are you sure you got your font problem sorted out Mimi?

Yeah, I was making a joke, see?
