Rules and other information pertaining to the Monthly photography Contest. PURPOSE: This contest is to encourage members to not only upload their photographs into their personal or other gallery here on Trackpads. But to actually display their work for others to actually see them without needing to do a search through the many galleries. Furthermore, in doing so, it will allow fellow members to recognize photographs and the photographers with awards. And hopefully tart a growing interest in the various forms of photography, through threads discussing techniques, styles, etc.
