OK Bladers! Yep, it's the now yearly Photography Face Contest that's back!


As usual, all you have to do is take one photograph related to the Beyblade hobby! It can be anything: a disintegrating Bull 125SF up in the air, or even that beautiful Legend Beyblade Set box art being put to glory.

Be as creative as you want, but don't forget basic picture composition rules!

The winners will get their choice of:

• -Face Booster RED [Image: faceboosterred.png]
  -Face Booster BLUE [Image: faceboosterblue.png]
  -Face Booster GREEN [Image: faceboostergreen.png]
  -Face Booster ORANGE [Image: faceboosterorange.png]
  -Face Booster YELLOW [Image: FaceBoosterIconYellow.png]
  -Face Booster PURPLE [Image: FaceBoosterIconPurple.png]

How mysterious! I wonder what could be inside of them?

And yes, that's right, winners. The top three entries will win a Face Booster, woohoo!

In addition to that, a special BeyDays gift will be given to one winner out of that top three: a Saramanda Ifraid DF145XF!!


Here are the basic rules:

• Photographs must contain at least one real Hasbro, Takara-Tomy, or SonoKong manufactured Beyblade. No exceptions!
  
• Limit one entry per person! Your first entry will be the only one that's considered, so work hard on it!
  
• The WBO Committee isn't eligible. Meh.
  
• You have until 11:59 PM EST Saturday, June 14th, 2014 to submit your photograph. Any entries after that will be disqualified!
  
• Post your entries in this thread! (You can also talk about the contest, ideas, or whatever in this thread as well!) However, you cannot post drafts of your entry and ask for feedback!
  

As veteran Blue worded it so well, "Think Like A Camera"!

This sounds great; lots of time for me to think of an entry, haha.

I'm happy to enter.

Threads you should read:

Pony King ? God, can't believe I typed this. I have to put my keyboard in the dishwasher now...

dude are you a gangster

LOL did you asked Midnight to take that pic?

When a monochrome picture is posted on WBO, it doesn't mean that it's always from Midnight.

I wouldn't trust someone with that many Cancer faces.

Well damn.

There's nothing else really to do or say except wait for the Superbowl, but I'm only here so I don't get fined.



Time. *gets up and leaves*

We won't have tournaments in the winter. Cause we are not one of those Canadian people where they just go outside like nothing happened to their hands.

i like my coffee like i like my men B)



i don't like coffee

I never have.

*Ginga*.. you're drunk bro... go home.. : )

Tbh SGMS & BDMS are kinda worthless.
MSUV is a far better spent investment; DGMF is even better IMO.

Um what? You're just saying that because you're a dragoon fanboy...

Why would I be suspended????

HMS summarised:




Anything not Tornado Type S:  Wolborg will leave you #rekt




Otherwise:  Go crazy with Ultimate Grip Flat 




For something less cookie-cutter:  Jiraiya sure is sexy

Is Wolborg 2 useless for competitive play?

Extremely useless. 
Now, if you come upon one I'll just PM you my address so you can throw it away. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I wasn't looking for Beyblade Underwear, I swear

So editing is allowed?

Count me in 4 sure.

Well, not too much : it is a photograph contest, not a graphics contest.

Woooo!! I'll definitely be partaking in this. Now to think of a cool theme for my picture...
& lmao at "a disintegrating Bull 125SF up in the air"

Could the WBO committee members submit photographs anyway and just not have them included in the competition? They could be there as examples perhaps? Seems a shame to always leave you out.

It sucks that my camera needed to break at such a time period. I'll try to find something on my SD card, though.

But yes, definitely count me in!

umm ... till what extent can we edit it ?

Not under any circumstance should editing be allowed.

There are a couple edited photographs I've seen, which look a lot better than the non-edited ones.

I'd assume what Kai-V said during the second Beyblade Photography contest still applies:

Photography in general can involve some quite heavy editing, but obviously, you cannot do a "montage" and go in a totally different direction than what you actually took as a photograph ... If you can produce something awesome with as little retouching as possible, that will be best.

EDIT: But then the post below from the third Photography contest contradicts the above post...

What's the ruling on this year's?

This is what we all want, Brad.

An edit should just be subtle visually and compliment the actual photograph, instead of totally manipulating it into a 'graphic design-esque' thing.

Things like minor touch ups, black & white, brightness & contrast adjustment should be OK. More often than not, these things will make a better photograph.

Essentially, we are looking for 'photographs'. Please keep that in mind when you guys start heading towards the graphic design aspect of a picture.

Can beyblade combos' photos be posted?

If it's a picture of one, yes.

There is no problem for moderators, because you do not vote.
