Photacular's "Cutie of the Month" Photo Contest Rules

Our photo contest is designed to be a fun way to share our users' best photos with others, giving the photographers some well-deserved recognition and helping to associate the Photacular brand with cuteness.
Contest Rules
1. Who Can Enter
Our contest is open to legal residents of the United States, age 18 or older. Void where prohibited or restricted by law or regulation. Employees and immediate families of Photacular (Sponsor), its agents, or promotion agencies are not eligible. Entrants must create a free Photacular account to enter. No purchase is required.
2. Contest Period
The photo contest will run on a monthly basis. All photos entered each month will be judged together the following month. For example, all photos entered between March 1, 2008 at midnight and March 31, 2008 at 11:59 PM Pacific time will be judged together to receive the March 2008 awards. The March 2008 awards will be announced in April 2008.
3. How to Enter
Entries must be submitted through the photacular.com website. Choose any product listed on the site and click the "Add Your Photo" button to launch the Photacular Designer.

Entrants can submit as many photos as they would like. Each photo will only be considered for the current month's contest. Entrants can resubmit their photo for a later month's contest if they wish, unless that photo has already won the contest. Each photo can only win one time. If a winning photo is re-entered in the contest, the entry will be discarded.
4. Contest Categories
The contest categories are "cutest person photo" and "cutest animal photo". Each photo will be considered for the appropriate category. If the photo contains both a cute person and a cute animal, it will be considered for either award for the month, but cannot win both.

Minor digital enhancements are permitted, but photographs that appear to have been significantly modified or appear unnatural will be disqualified.
Any photos depicting harm being inflicted on a person or animal by any person are not eligible for the contest. Any photos causing concern will be turned over to the appropriate authorities.
6. Judging Criteria and Selection of Winners
Photos will be judged on their overall cuteness. Judging will be conducted by a judging panel selected by Photacular. All decisions by the panel are final.
