Arcadia News Photo Contest Rules
As much as possible, we have attempted to avoid the use of legal language in these rules. Because of this, we reserve the right to change or modify the rules, or the prizes, and discontinue or extend this contest without prior notice.

Ownership/Consent
Entrant must be the owner of the photograph, or otherwise have the right to submit the photograph for consideration in the Contest. Entrants waive any and all rights to photographs and give Arcadia News the right to publish same in any medium without compensating entrants. Entrants agree to provide a consent / release of any recognizable people in their photo.

Announcing Winners
Each month, the winning entry will be printed in the Arcadia News, at our web site, arcadianews.com, and on the Arcadia News Facebook page. Winners will be notified by phone or e-mail, and may come and receive congratulatory accolades while picking up their prize(s) at the Arcadia News office, or we may opt to use the US Postal Service to handle this important duty. Toward the end of the year, a Grand Prize Winner will be selected and published in the December, 2010 edition of Arcadia News, on the Arcadia News web site, and on the Arcadia News Facebook page.

How to Enter
Photos may be submitted via e-mail (photos@arcadianews.com) or may be delivered to the Arcadia News office (3850 E. Indian School Rd., Ste 1., Phoenix AZ 85018). Please use the largest resolution possible for entries – we want to reproduce them in print as best as possible. 300 dpi is the ideal size, but not everyone knows what that means, so please just send us the largest file you can get your hands on (20MB Max). Deadline for each month is the editorial deadline of the next issue, which is typically the 15th at Noon of the month prior. Details about deadlines are available at our web site (arcadianews.com).

Prizes
Monthly winner will receive a gift card (or two - or three!) to a local restaurant in the approximate value of $25 – hopefully enough for lunch for two. Some of the gift cards we are hoarding, that we are now excited to award: Arcadia Tavern, Zen 32, Delux, Revo Burrito, Zipp’s Sports Bar.

Grand Prize winner (Photo of the Year) will receive a $100 gift card to Arcadia Tavern.
