Competition Rules:
01. You are allowed to post only one picture of any Aquarium, but you can post as many entries of different Aquarium you wish. Only the highest ranking photograph will be considered for the prize from all of one member's entries. Each member cannot win more than one prize!
02. All photographs must be your property, do not bring in copyright issues here.
03. Size of the Aquarium does not matter. It's the photograph that is being judged here not the fish.
04. Only frontal shots from the horizontal level of eyes will be allowed. Corner Shot or Top Shot will not be taken into consideration.
05. Please resize your image to 800 x XXX pixels before uploading to the gallery. Then display the image in this thread.
06. If possible include Make of Camera, lighting, shutter speed, aperture settings, type of lens used and as much detail as you possibly can regarding the equipment and ambient conditions.
07. The photograph competition has nothing to do with the rarity of any fish, size of the aquarium or sophisticated equipment used. It will be judged purely on Clarity, Sharpness and in the Judges opinion "Pleasing to the Eye". ( Judges please note: This is not a fish competition).
08. Entries to this competition must be submitted by Mid Night, 31st January 2009.
09. The decision of the judges is final. No disagreement will be tolerated.

Good point, Tirtha!
How about 800 x XXX. Will it look good in forum.
What will be the best suitable size for the same? |

| 800px Width will make members to scroll in some low resulution monitor. Go for 750px width maximum, so everyone will be able to view the picture without scrolling. |
