I strongly do discourage use picture.com They'll spam you as long as they can and use your pictures without asking.

Do they? So far I have not had any spam from them. I admittedly know nothing about the contest site...just shared a contest sent to me by a friend. I submitted a photo...and so far, no spam....but time will tell. Thanks

you should really avoid this at all costs. it's organised by the 'International Society of Photographers' and 'winning' anything with them will ultimately cost you a lot of cash ranging from $75 for a copy of your print to over $500 to attend one of their prize giving conventions to collect a fruit bowl as your achievement prize. they use a lot of misleading literature including wildly untrue claims such as been associated with National Geographic. do a quick google on the International Society of Photographers to find forums littered with unhappy victims :-)

HOW EMBARRASSING!!!!!!!!!!!!! They are correct....the contest is bogus and they suck and spam you dry.....{sorry...!}

Wow, I'm still glad you posted this. It's good to know about these types of scams, teaches you to be a bit more vigilant...

My new self portrait: it will have SUCKER across my forehead....:(


PS: I can't believe they want me to buy a pic of my own image on a deck of playing cards for only 75 bucks! hahahaha
