New Contest System!

SP-Studio contestExciting news! I am testing a new contest system this month! The old system worked fine for many years, but recently there were annoying bugs. In addition the number of entries became smaller and I want to encourage new people to show their pictures. So now NO REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED to enter. Just upload your picture on the new CONTESTS PAGE. The topic for the current contest is BLOCKBUSTER MOVIES. You can submit your picture until July 20th. Then the voting will start on the SP-Studio FACEBOOK PAGE. Who gets the most likes wins a free wish for a SP-Studio update. Of course I am curious for your feedback on the new system. I hope to see many old and new faces. Have fun and show your creativity! 🙂
But let’s not forget about last month’s winner. Congratulations to legobasher! He created a portrait of David Zellaby from “Village of the Damned” for the CHILDREN contest. You can find all winners in the old contest gallery or visit the Hall of Fame.
