FP'ers with Facebook, please help me in a holiday photo contest, Please. - General

Hi, I can really use some help I have a photo of my son dressed as Santa with my two dogs as reindeer. [IMG]http://img706.imageshack.us/img706/6338/cropped2008001125900857.jpg[/IMG] It is one of my most favorite pictures that I have taken to date. I entered it in a Walgreens Facebook contest and was in the lead until yesterday. It seems someone with multiple pictures in the contest has taken over the lead. (lame) I am doing what I can, and have a few friends voting daily, but I seriously need more help. I think I've been around FP long enough to know that at least a few of you can help me out. Also, I know that FP is not my personal army, just looking for some friendly FB voting help. Please vote for my photo here: [daily voting] [url]http://apps.facebook.com/findyourjoycontest/vote?entry_id=386[/url] 1) allow walgreens app 2) click this link again (bookmark it?) 3) vote [daily] Grand prize (1) is a 12mp camera and 500 prints. First prizes (4) one per category is a digital Picture frame and 250 prints. Contest ends New Year's Eve. I need to see how this goes, I had almost given up, but I will try this first. If I do win, with your help, I will give back to you, FP, in appreciation. I was thinking a small Steam gift of some sort randomly chosen from those who post in this thread and who voted. Thanks for looking, and even more for actually voting.

I'm gonna help you out :) [editline]10:38PM[/editline] Looking at some of the others, the expressions on the faces of the kids look waaay too forced. Yours is one of the best. While not artistically spectacular, it has sentimental value :3 I'm going to get my friends to help you, too.

But you used the flash

I forgot to mention a few things, 1) I really need help, but I really only want you to vote if you do like the picture. 2) I will bump this thread occasionally, perhaps daily, so if you see this thread again and again, please take the few seconds to vote when you see it. 3) These are the top pictures in my Category, keep an eye on the lead here: [url]http://apps.facebook.com/findyourjoycontest/vote?category=22&filter=votes[/url] Thanks again, everyone. [QUOTE=Uberslug;18724241]But you used the flash[/QUOTE] Yes, It's not perfect, I know. I am an amateur photographer at best, and am always learning. I had lighting and took close to 100 pictures with and without flash that night, with only 3-4 I felt were acceptable. This was the best one, with all three subjects actually looking, and it's unedited/photochopped aside from color and brightness. I really hate the shadow on his face, but hey, hind sight is 20/20 and I would have adjusted if I wasn't getting so frustrated. Have you ever tried taking pictures of kids, or animals, or kids and animals? Even with help this was a task. Probably why its one of my favorite.

i think it's an adorable picture. i'm in.

Wow most of these photos in the contest are bad snapshots which have nothing to do with the theme. I'll cast a vote for you later, even though you used the flash.

Voted. Wish you the best of luck! Also, voted four times for you (sometimes it's good to know your girlfriends Facebook account information as well as both your parents >_> )

No problem. You have my vote.

I voted.

Isn't it funny how huge your numbers went up after you posted this? Thy will be done.

I voted for you, hope you win!

Yeah, and I appreciate each every vote. It has put our picture is back in first, so Thanks. Now it won't stay there without your help, and It's after 12am est. so we,(I) can vote again for today. I am not sure if there's something screwy with the Walgreens app, but some pictures disappear and reappear. There was one overall that was beating us by alot (15-20), but right now it's not there, and I dunno if it will be back. I think the grand prize goes to the single picture with the most votes regardless of category. You can keep an eye on that over all lead here: [url]http://apps.facebook.com/findyourjoycontest/vote?category=all&filter=votes[/url] Thanks a boatload guys, This has given me a renewed hope of actually winning.

Voted another four before I headed off to bed, good luck!

Put my second vote in. Oh, and dont be surprised, you'll find we're much nicer here than the rest of the forum.

Thanks for all your support, and votes, Please keep voting, and be sure post when you do. As I said before, if we can pull this off and actually win, I will give back to you guys (from this thread) somehow. (Steam?) Another half hour left to vote today on the East Coast USA, then you can vote again after midnight, FYI, thanks again.

I can't tell you how much it pisses me off that you can no longer see the top vote getting pictures. I think they're up to something, Please keep voting when you see this thread, Thanks.

Done and done.
