DPNow Salon Competition No 88 - VINTAGE

[Gina]

Thank you Peter for picking my image as the winner of salon 87.

I've chosen Vintage as this salon's theme. I am looking for the image which best represents the theme. Colour or mono, it's up to you so be creative.

Closing date, 30th June 2010 at 12.00 GMT


The rules are as follows:

1. All photographs are to be uploaded to the photo gallery at http://dpnow.com/galleries/. They can be put in members own gallery if they wish. The resulting link generated for the foto/photo will then be pasted into the next available space in the salon tread. Please keep photos to a maximum of 800 pixel wide so people can see the whole image without scrolling.

2. One entry per user ID only please, which must be the personal work of the entrant.

3. Entries should be "in line" within the thread (not as links to an image held somewhere else)

4. Comments only on entries are welcome witin the salon thread itself.

5. After the close the curator will indicate a winner and a couple of runners up.

6. The curators decision is final.

7. Winners should be offered first refusal to choose the next theme and curate the next salon.

8. If the winner is unable to curate the next salon the current curator may offer that "honour" to any willing volunteer, possibly the entrant in second or third place.

9. These rules are to be copied and pasted with the new theme by the curator at the top of the new salon thread with a finish date and time.

10. As with all photos posted on DPNow, copyright remains with the photographer and DPNow will not use them without permission.

If you google vintage, all that comes up mostly is wine, cars and guitars*LOL
Very rock n roll! Which is not a problem, I have lots of pics of these:\
Can we just clarify that you wan't something old, or are you specific in that it has to be something that is known to be 'vintage'?

IMO it should be down to your own interpretation Ash. So long as its clear in the picture what you saying that's all that matters. I doubt Gina would want to be too prescriptive

[Gina]

OK .... I see the problem ....


Can I change the salon theme to Mono or black and white instead of vintage at this stage?

[Autumn]

No, I hate mono.

I had a lovely colour one lined up , now I can't post it.:mad:

[Gina]

Oh no, I wish I hadn't named the salon Vintage now ...


I would like to apologise for not being more specific with the subject and cause so much hassle.

I would like some advice on what to do now please?

Gina

Ask Ian nicely to delete your first post. Go have a drink of something Vintage, then come back with a new Salon!! :D

[Gez]

Gina, since no one has submitted a photo, why not abandon this thread and start a new one from scratch.(mention in the new one that VINTAGE is cancelled)

[Gina]

Thanks Gez I will ... sorry everyone :\

[Gina]

This salon is void and will be deleted - please see new thread for salon 88


thank you

Sorry Gina. It's your thread. I must just have been feeling grumpy.:o

I've got loads of stuff, but none of them are b/w or sepia, but I can convert them. I actually hadn't found it a problem. It just would have been up to the members to interprate it as they feel.

Challenges some times can be too specific and then there are not many entries.

So if you want to keep it as Vintage just do so.
