So as I said before the day I got back from AnimeNEXT that I will be hosting a contest for those of you who are following me and such. I finally figured out what kind of contest I would like to hold. I want to hold a photo taking contest. It's a bit different from having a coloring/drawing contest and I would hope more people would be interested in participating. :3

The rules are simple:
- take a picture of a stuffed animal (preferably anime related but I will not count points off of a non anime related picture) in an environment best suited for them.
- multiple entries are allowed (3 is the maximum)
- no nudity (obviously) unless it's tasteful.

Examples:
- Buizel http://s636.photobucket.com/albums/.....ent=buizel.jpg
- Bulbasaur http://s636.photobucket.com/albums/.....=bulbasaur.jpg
- Shaymin http://s636.photobucket.com/albums/.....nt=shaymin.jpg

I will be giving away prizes to the top three contestants that I deem to have the most creative picture. The prizes will be as follows:

FIRST PRIZE:
- A phone charm, a keychain and a necklace of their choosing to be handcrafted by myself.

SECOND PRIZE:
- A keychain of your choosing.

THIRD PRIZE:
- A phone charm of your choosing

The deadline for this contest, I would like to make it August 16th (My birthday!). That gives the contestants 4 weeks to complete a picture. :3

So I hope you guys participate! I will be looking forward to you guys all showing me some great photos of your stuffed animals! This will also be posted on the following sites:
