Creative Challenge: Happy Holidays

It happens every year, the holidays sneak up on us! Christmas, Hanukkah and New Year’s are coming up fast. For the this creative challenge, share a holiday moment, decoration, symbolic object or visual story and you just might be featured on the homepage!

OFFICIAL ENTRY RULES
To officially enter the Creative Challenge, you must tag your three submissions with creative-challenge-happyholidays. You can then view them and everyone else’s submissions on the DISPLAY PAGE (it updates about every hour). To find out more about this, read the Using Tags on Creative Challenges post.

Submission Guidelines
1. Our editors look for sharp, clear horizontal images that are at a minimum resolution of 800×600 (submissions can have larger resolutions than this). Currently, vertical images cannot fit in the homepage template. Therefore, we cannot publish vertical or narrow panoramic images.

2. Images with added text or images, including watermarks, logos, copyright symbols, graphic borders, frames and time stamps, will not be considered for first place or being featured on the homepage at a later date. Collages, however, are acceptable. Images submitted should be your own.

3. Please do not submit pictures that have already been featured on the homepage.

4. The Creative Challenge runs from 12:01 a.m. on December 7 to 12:00 p.m. on December 21 (all times EST).

5. 3 pictures per person (regardless of how many member accounts you have) tagged exactly (including hyphens) with: creative-challenge-happyholidays

*Note:Images that don’t meet the exact guidelines can be submitted and viewed for everyone to enjoy, but please understand that we cannot publish images that don’t meet minimum guidelines on the homepage. Also, now that you’re tagging your entries, you don’t need to post links in the comments section anymore.

NEXT CHALLENGE THEME: Resolutions
A new year means new goals and resolutions. For the next challenge document the habits, goals or changes you wish to make in the new year. A visual reminder of your resolve can serve as a constant reminder throughout the year and help you achieve your goal. An image of a mountain or sunrise might be symbolic of your goal to have a brighter outlook or enjoy the outdoors more. While a literal interpretation such as a dirty ashtray could be the reminder you need to keep you on the no smoking track. What do you wish to achieve in 2010?
