Just in case you haven't read the Picture competition thread, there is going to be a guaranteed cash prize (amount to be posted soon!) for the winner of the January picture competition (donated by Pro-Jump) and the runner up prize will be a choice of any one item of protective gear from the Pro-Jump website. I will leave you to speculate for the next few days as to what the cash prize will be!!

Lol I'm gonna try sooooo hard with pics this month!
Can't believe I won those pads haha! I'm sure we'll see 10 times as many pics this month, what with this cash prize being offered!
Dom
-
lol it had better be more than 20p :)
-
will have to get the camera out during the day so that you can see the PJ'S
unlike the fire breating pic that doesent show up in the day
if you squint at said pic you can just see them in the pic
any hooooo
good luck every one ;)
-
are moderaters allowed to enter the comp?....and why is matts stars blue and others are green....(is it because he is speacial?)...lol
-
I dont have any pics to enter anyway. I think the blue stars are because I'm a mod.
-
Hmm yeah! Any ideas on how much it is?? It determines how hard I try!! Hahaha!
-
do i get points 4 posting a pic of me smacking my head into the doorframe in my house? (on pj's)
^_^ ;D jack
-
no but I'd love to see it anyway.
I'd be surprised if the winning prize was less than £10,000 - in monopoly money anyway!
I wouldn't expect too much guys, projump provide this forum for us and the picture competition is just another way to build this community.
-
should i shrink the photo atall?
jack
-
I shrink all mine to 640x480, so they fit nicely on the screen.
-
if they are ridiculously big.. like over 1000x1000 .. then it may be worth doing .. try to get it to the sizes of pics that you see me and frupet have already posted ;)
-
ok cool im gona try nd take some pics 2moz if i can. (weather depentant) hopefully ill have some desent pics of my 2nd time out
jack ;D

Ref: January and February Picture/Video Competition....
...Lets make it interesting...
First of all, the January and February competition are going to be merged together, so the cash prize for the winner will be drawn from all entries in this thread (and the runner up prize too)
Ok, the top prize is going to be £50 for every 100 regular members that we have on this forum, (with a maximum value of £500) All courtesy of ProJump. Conditions Apply - see below
1. The competition will be based on pictures/videos (posted in this thread)
2. The prize will not necessarily be drawn based on the most impressive picture/video, its based on all levels, it can be any person, doing anything to do with pro-jumps.
3. The number of members must be deemed to be genuine members and regular users. Pro-Jump reserves the right to decide how many of the total members are regular/genuine. (The total prize will be calculated and posted in due course of the end of the competition)
I will be away until 21st of this month as of tomorrow (Lucky me!) so any PM's will not be responded to until I get back!! Im leaving (Uncle) Matt in charge for the week.
Take Care and Have Fun!!!!!

explain the part about 50 quid for every 100th member?
just to be sure.. its a bit mysterious (mabie our uncle could help my puzzled look on my face out a bit ;) )
-
As I understand it, the prize will be £50 for every 100 members we have on the forum.
At the time of me writing this we have 196 members so assuming we get 4 new members by the end of feb then the prize will be £100. Should the members go up to 200 members then the prize will be £150 and so on.
It's the "regular" members bit that throws me since there are lots of members who's account are stale and are not likely to be used again, infact the whole board seems to be used by about 20 of us (based on members posting, not just logging on).
I am assuming it has been worded as regular members because this is a marketing idea for projump to increase the users on the forum - it will be obvious if people are registering 2 or more accounts or getting all their friends to sign up just to up the prize money.
Before anyone asks (and to answer a PM) I have registered an account called matt2. This has nothing to do with the competition but is because since becoming a mod I am unable to view attachments and everything we do doesnt fix it so I just registered an account which I can use to view the pics etc.
I'm speaking with my own common sense here guys, DO NOT go registering accounts to up the money and that includes getting your mates to. IF they have projumps/powerisers etc and a genuine interest or someone looking to buy them then thats perfectly fine. I would imagine anyone found making false registrations will be banned, and publicly named too.
Nuff respect from da uncle.
-
Ok, sort of understand, so how many people could win the cash prize?
Luke :-\
-
unless they change their minds, only 1 winner.
I suppose its possible that if there were 2 entries that had something like someone on projumps dressed up as mary poppins while juggling with firesticks while bouncing on top a real life drunk elephant then they could say there are 2 winners. I wouldnt count on it though, and even if they did they would probably just split the prize money but never say never :)
-
ok matt.. thats cleared it up a bit for me now .. thanks
-
it says there is a runner up aswell ;D
also does my inexperience help me atall or do i have to get up with everyone else?
-
..just post and post and post.. and im sure your chances will go up for winning :P
-
I do not know.
I think someone needs to clarify if this competiton is based on projumping ability or weird stuff people come up with to do on projumps etc or something else. I dont think having it on ability is really fair otherwise the lindstrom brothers could enter on the last day and sweep the goods!
-
2. The prize will not necessarily be drawn based on the most impressive picture/video, its based on all levels, it can be any person, doing anything to do with pro-jumps.
I think this means that it wont be based on any one thing but in general if people would look at your photo and their initial thoughts are "wow thats a really awesome photo" then you're in with a good chance.
That's just my interpretation of things though, we have 6 weeks for this guys so it's plenty of time to get things clarified by uncle dan ;)
-

nope .. im sorry Uncle M'.. but it just doesnt work with dan .. stop trying to get others with this uncle phanomenom.. you are stuck.. getting others with the uncle gun wont make things easier for you ;) :P ;D
-
k thanks for clearing that up UNCLE SIMEON :P
Actually I think 'uncle' is one of the cleanest nicknames I've ever been given lol.
-

-

Dude thats just wrong on so many levels.
Hippos are endangered. Use a Giraffe or something.

the hippo is primed and ready :D
-

-
lol ah ok then

im taking my hippo training Very seriously :D :D :D :D
-
yeaa im glad... make sure hes tame... we woulnt want any rampaging evil boucing hippos on the lose. ;D
[ Invalid YouTube link ] these are first entrys into the comp... more to come.
hope your all super impressed!
-
Back from my holidays now guys, so just to clarify The competition isn't judged on ability in any way, therefore anybody can win this prize, for example like matt said if we see a picture that just makes us go Wow! then its in with a good chance, (It could involve drunk elephants and spotty hippo's lol)
And also to clarify it is based on regular members - ProJump reserves the right to come to the conclusion of how many of our members are regular. eg somebody who signed up 2 months ago and has not logged in for the last 4 weeks would not be considered a regular member, likewise someone who had signed up last week and hadnt posted anything or was just posting to increase "regular members" would also not be considered a regular member.
The idea is to get you guys to tell all your pro-jumping friends to join the forum and play a part in our community. Spread the word people!!
Dan
P.S Thanks to Uncle Matt for all his hard work on the forum recently and while Ive been away, I think everyone will agree he's doing a great Job!! Keep up the good work pal.
