Its a cham forum, why would there be other pets??

If you read the rules, it clearly states the pic has to be of a chameleon

no,, that's not what i was saying/asking..... i know it's a chameleon forum,,, no other pets are in question....
just sometimes it's of a "spacific theme", hunting, basking, eyes..... all the pics i saw seemed to be shots of cham "profiles", no "spacific theme",,, hunting, basking, eyes, sleeping, etc........
never mind, i guess my original question made it sound more confusing than it was......

 

[VeiledChams]

ooooh, haha, since you mentioned other pets I got confused.

There is no theme this month.. the pic can be of your cham in any way

Reminder

Today is the last day to enter the August 2011 chameleon photo contest.

 

[dbolemiss]

So I missed it for this month? Can't slide one in today?

Sorry, first try at this.

Having a hard time deciding on your favorite?

Slideshow: Click to view slideshow

Comparing the original size of each image can help and is recommended. Photos should not only be judged by the chameleon displayed, but also on composition and image quality.

Hey Brad, I don't know if you know this or if you did it with the video contest, but you can do a slideshow on youtube too, Vsauce/Vsauce2 does it for "leanbacks".

Duplicate Photos

Both Poll Photo pages display the same photos. So... some appear twice and others are not there at all.

We received over 75 entries this month, but as usual only a limited number of final slots were available (16). There were many great photos that unfortunately did not make it to the final round of voting. If anyone would like know how their photo could have ranked higher please send me a pm. A very large majority of entries could have benefited from a little noise reduction.

 

[KarmaChameleon1337]

I would start joining the contests but pictures and videos of a small, usually only green Senegal bore people. People like vibrant colors.

Thanks, I'll check it out. The seasonal video contest is new and the interface needs lots of improvements.

 

[KarmaChameleon1337]

From what I've heard it's easy to do. You put it together and whoever visits the videos can sit and watch as it automatically takes you from video to video, even if they're not yours.

if it were the best picture i would vote for it, there are ways to spice up a picture. action shots, funny positions, creative stuff.. if you threw a contrast color behind he would "pop" a lot more and maybe seem more colorful. the last i seen of him, he was pretty yellow i think? so maybe a purple background would be good?
