TheFactoryFiveForum.com is now accepting Picture of the Month (POM) Submissions!

We have categories for every model, as well as an overall POM. The POM winners will appear on the Wiki/News/Latest Post pages. They are accessed by clicking one of the links on the nav bar located near the top of the Home page:

2585

In addition, the overall POM winner will get their entry posted in a widget on the home page for the whole month!

To turn in a POM submission, you need to fill out a form. There are a few ways to get to the forms.

The easiest way is a direct link. Here they are:

ROADSTER POM Form (http://thefactoryfiveforum.com/misc.php?do=form&fid=1)
Type 65 Coupe POM Form (http://thefactoryfiveforum.com/misc.php?do=form&fid=2)
33 Hotrod Form (http://thefactoryfiveforum.com/misc.php?do=form&fid=3)
GTM POM Form (http://thefactoryfiveforum.com/misc.php?do=form&fid=4)
Challenge Series POM Form (http://thefactoryfiveforum.com/misc.php?do=form&fid=5)


Also, there are links to them from the top of the new POM Submissions Forums, listed as sub-forums for each car:
2588

Once in the POM submission forum, use the >>Click Here<< link to get to the form. DO NOT USE THE "Post New Thread" BUTTON!

2586

This is what the form looks like:

2587

There is a provision for attaching pics to the form for submission, and all fields are required.

We are using a form for this so that in the future we can use the data to tie to our registry. You MUST use a form to submit your POM entries.

ALL POM WINNERS WILL BE ELIGIBLE FOR OUR 2012 CALENDAR!

What size photo is required or allowed? I tried to submit a photo and it gives me a "File Too Large" error message. Seems you guys would want Hi-Res if it's going to be used for a calendar.

I just upped the allowable attachement size to 1600x1600. I'll fine tune it tonight. It may need to go bigger...

Lol! The contest is open every month as far as I know. There's a form that you fill out (I'm sure David H will see this post and point you in the right direction) to enter your car into the contest and if you win you receive a $100 gift voucher from FFR towards their products. We won earlier and ought some FFR Floor-mats to replace the ones we have in our '33!
