*CONTEST* - Lava in the wild!

[Erin]

 

We're having our first contest here at Oozing Goo! And, this contest has prizes! The name of this contest is called "Lava in the Wild" and is open to all members of the Oozing Goo community.

 

The contest is pretty simple: snap a photo of your running lava lamp in an unconventional / weird / funny location. Send the lamp photo TO ME via this site and I'll post it here and keep track of who's photos belongs to whom and we'll vote at the end. This will ensure an even and level playing field. :)

 

Please make sure to send your pics to ME, which will require you to friend me on this site. If you have any issues sending me a photo, contact me and I'll help you out!

 

Here are the official rules:

1) The lamp and photo must be YOURS. No grabbing anything off Google Images, please. ;)

2) The lamp must be RUNNING. Yes, I know, that'll make it a little more challenging, but it will also make the contest more fun, too. 

3) The lamp must be a LAVA lamp. Sorry glitters, this contest is not for you.

4) No Photoshops! If we suspect a P'shop, you're out!

5) No more than 3 photos maybe be submitted by any one member of this site. 

6) ALL members of Oozing Goo, regardless of country or length of membership, are eligible to win. 

 

PRIZES:

1st and 2nd place winners will have their choice of ONE of the following:

• 1999 BNIB Lava Lite Yellow/Red 8402
• 1999 BNIB Lava Lite Clear/Blue 8413
• Lava Lite Blue/White Psychedelic Swirl

 

The contest opens August 5th and will end at midnight on September 2nd. No exceptions. Winner will be determined by popular vote.

 

Voting will be from September 3rd to September 10th. You may vote for ONE photo. To see all the photos in a photo album, look here: https://oozinggoo.ning.com/photo/albums/lava-in-the-wild-contest-en...

Alright, 20 solid entries! 

 

We're working out the voting behind the scenes. We don't have a good internal voting option in place, so if need be, we'll do this manually! I'll post back as soon as I've talked to Mark about this. I hope to have some sort of voting ready to go on Tuesday, so stay tuned. 

 

Thank you to all the entries! I can't wait to see how this ends! Good luck all!

I'm getting excited with anticipation for results!!  I know, I know voting continues through Saturday the 10th, but that means waiting till at least Sunday for results :(
