For the timing, basically take whatever time you see in my original post and add 40 hours. My first post went up at 9 pm monday nite....and currently its 11:30 am for me. I dont care too much about it being exactly on time, just as long as its in before friday morning (in south eastern canada)

Is cropping using photoshop fine? This could potentially "improve" the image though it is not modifying it in a significant way.
yes cropping is fine. The idea is to avoid ub3r photoshop skillz that some people have *cough*lucifus*cough*.

How do you want the photos uploaded through PM? Would you prefer just a link to the hosted image, or the image crammed into the PM?
Well a direct link from imageshack would be ideal, but as long as i can either directly link it or upload it somewhere else and link it, its fine.

size of the picture? or do you resize the pictures yourself, so we don't have to give a crap about that?
Size is also up to you...if having a smaller/bigger picture is part of your artistic style, thats fine. Im going to assume whatever i get is how it's intended to be seen, so i wont be resizing anything. Just dont send something HUGE or with a file size of 10 mb. If its gonna cause problems for someone viewing the forums thru dial-up, try another approach.

How should we submit the picture? Email or photobucket etc?
PM to me and xan (on the off chance that i dont get to it, i dont want the whole thing being delayed). an imageshack link will be fine.

If I'm lucky enough to make it to the next round... I don't know if I can participate.. I'm in the middle of moving to NYC
send a picture of your bewbs and i'll guarantee you'll make it

I assume this will be an anonymous entry contest? ie no one will know who took what photo? I think it will help keep voting more objective, yes?
yes, we're just gonna put up the links. the names will be revealed once the polls close.
