* NOT have watermarks (copyrights, names, or other text overlays);

* NOT have decorative borders;


nice contest, though i dont agree with these because:

thats the way the photographers id their work. i dont assume but what if someone will use them and claim as their own.

for the borders i think a simple black or white border around the pic would make it more captivating.
