We’ve opened this contest up to accept submissions from people living in the USA and Quebec. And a few other matches on site in October will also be open to folks living south of the border in the United States of America. Don’t panic if you loved Lenzr because it was Canadians only, that’s not changing…. much. Its just that in this next contest cycle, and perhaps others we will have some different contests, clearly marked Open to USA that allow submissions from people living in the United States of America to enter and if they have the best pictures according to Judges, Lenzr will award the prize. The contest will probably not be extensively promoted in the USA because we dont really know how to do that very well, and in fact that’s another reason we are trying this. And because we are backlogged on fixes and changes and further web development, this seems to be something we can easily try. So bear with us, and please let us know your thoughts in the comments.

Warehouse Stockpiles is the second in a series of three photo contests sponsored by a software company that seeks images for their new website.

Similar to A Manufacturing Process this competition follows a new style reward structure whereby the winning image is licensed alongside three other images selected by the sponsor, from anywhere in the index.

In this match the sponsor is seeks images of stock being managed to accompany text on the website in which they show thought leadership in Production Planning and also Inventory Management

These two pages need some visual references that compliment the text, but are not so spectacular they are distracting.   The prize is $250 CAN in exchange for the rights to use your photo*  Non exclusive license for 3 yrs. Solarsoft is under no obligation to display photos. Three other photographer’s works will be offered non exclusive license agreements for their works at a rate of $75 each.

RULES / TIMELINE The contest works like any other Lenzr match–it’s a sixty day challenge. Upload your pictures to the index now, and right up until November 25th, 2011. It’s recommended that you promote your pictures when voting begins Nov 15, 2011 to get into the Top Ten grouping. Judges pick from the Top Ten images that are locked down on the 25th of November at 12:01 am when voting ends – the winner is announced Dec 1, 2011.  Must be 13 yrs of age or older to enter. Contest is valid everywhere. Lenzr will ship prizes anywhere in the United States and Canada, and yes that includes Quebec.
