Free Flickr Account - Closed

Saturday, July 2nd, 2005

UPDATE: Judging is taking place. A winner will be chosen soon.

I have a free Flickr accout to give away. I’ve had it for a while and haven’t had anyone to give it to. So what I’ve decided to do is hold a very small and quick photo contest.

What you need to do is take a photo of something geeky and tell my why it’s geeky. The best photo will win the Flickr account. This is a quick contest as the flickr account has to be assigned before the 15th July 2005 so get your entries in quick-sharp!

As with most competions this one also has rules…here they are:

  1. Post a comment on this page with an img tag containing a link to the photo.
  2. The photo must not be larger than 640 x 480. Images outside these parameters will be removed.
  3. Store your photos on your server/web service.
  4. Entries close on 10 July 2005 at 11:59pm New Zealand time.

So there you have it - dontcom’s first competition. Impress me and you’ll be the lucky owner of a Pro Flickr Account (which lasts a year).
