| When the Millennium Bug strikes on New Year's Eve
1999, the lights will go out all over the world (maybe ! ) The Competition theme for 1999 is a lantern, or any form of light powered by the basic technology of candle / oil / or burning wick. Other materials ( preferably non - flammable ) can form part of the design, but the basic structure must be ceramic. This competition will only exist in cyber-space and will be judged purely by those taking part. SUBMISSION DATES : Images can be submitted up to OCTOBER 1st 1999 Post to chris@cox1.demon.co.uk (that's a number 1, not a letter L), or send photo to Chris Cox, Stoddahgate Barn, Penruddock, Penrith, Cumbria, CA11 0RY, England. Judging will occur in late October Images will be displayed on the Cyber-Competition page as and when they arrive. To ensure entry please don't leave your submission until the last day! And now the bottom line. Prize money will be catch 22, the number of those taking part dictating the viability of this competition. There will be no submission fee so prize money will be from sponsorship only. Number of entries will influence the degree of sponsor interest, so do it primarily for fun and maybe together we'll make something from nothing. The winners will be identified and published on NOVEMBER 5th 1999 ( Bonfire Night in the UK.....What other night could there possibly be for the pyromaniacs party? ) As well as the winners, we will try to keep all the entries on the Potfest competition site for a full year. Details of how to register voting will be posted to those submitting an entry. |
