[Wawa Coffee]

I'm a newb to photography and this site but I may attempt this challenge just to better myself if anything.

The prize for the winner of the vote, as always, will be a $25.00 Amazon voucher courtesy of the TPF owners.

I don't think they give out awards anymore as I have yet to receive my Amazon $25 award for Novembers "communication" contest and it has been over a month ago?

PM me your mailing address and we will get this out to you!

OK, the deadline date has now passed, so no more entries. I'll go take a look at what's come through the entry door. The February Challenge will be along shortly.

As an aide memoir for next month, can I point out that:

1) Zip files are not an acceptable method of bypassing the file size restrictions and will not be processed.

2) File sizing can be achieved as follows using Photoshop:

1. Use Ctrl + Alt + I to get to the image resize dialogue (or Mac equivalent) - set the longest side to something between 600 to 800 pixels
2. Choose File | Save As
3. In the dialogue box, select the JPEG file format option, choose a name to save the file as, click OK
4. On the next dialogue box, adjust the quality setting down, until the indicator shows a filw size of less than 150Kb, click enter
5. Submit the photo to the competition

3) You do actually have to attach the resulting image to the email.
