Rules

Entries must be posted, by you, in this thread by posting a link to the photo from your Island Paradise Photos photo album.
- See “How do I post a link to my photo?” below on how to wrangle your security setting so they can see your images without any problems.
Submitted photos have to be taken with the in-game snapshot feature.
- Photos can be from before the contest existed. It does not have to be your island right here and now.
Photoshopped or edited images will not be considered.
Photos can be of your entire island or just of a select area.
Your submission must be of YOUR island.
Only one submission per contest. So make it good!
No inappropriate images are allowed.
Do not spam the submission thread with anything that is not relevant to the contest.
Be courteous to all players who submit their entries.

How do I post a link to my photo?

First, make sure your “Island Paradise Photos” photo album is set up to be public. To check this, you can go here: http://www.facebook.com/privacy/?view=photos
On the drop down bar for “Island Paradise Photos,” make sure it is set to “Everyone,” as seen in this example:

Then, find the image in the album that you'd like to submit. If you have your album settings set correctly, you should see a link at the bottom of the page that says:
Share this photo with anyone by sending them this public link: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=1234567890

Image example seen here (the link you copy is circled in a large red box):

Copy that link and post it in this thread to enter your submission!

Prizes

There will be four winners and their submissions will be featured in the Island Paradise loading screen. Also, the winners will each receive 2,000 Meteor Credits.

What happens if I don't win?

Entries that do not win will not be automatically re-submitted into next month's contest. Players can choose to either re-submit the same entry or submit a different photo when the next contest starts.
