My "Transition" prize
Yes it is a bit of an odd title, but it's a really simple concept. All I'm looking for is a series of photos where something changes/transforms. It can be someone moving from location to location looking for something, can be someone building something from nothing, anything! All I want is to see what happens photo by photo, so the set tells the story of the transition! So not just a set of different poses in the same place!
I'm looking for creativity and artistic sets here, so even though someone starting off fully clothed and doing a strip does fit this theme, it's not that creative by itself, so that sort of set is very unlikely to win this prize (unless you do more with it in a creative and artistic way!).
I know I probably won't get anywhere near as many entries into this prize as my previous prizes, but I love to see sets which have a story to them, with a clear start and end, and would love to see a prize for them, so I made one myself :D
I can't wait to see what everyone does for it!!
**Just to make one thing clear, I'll be the one choosing the winner this time. Number of votes or comments won't be a factor at all (although I'd still like to see comments on the sets!!) **

Yes, there is a lot of scope for good ideas with your new contest. People enter contests for publicity? Really? I just enter contests when the theme takes my fancy, or when I come up with a an idea for something which suits the theme of the contest.

** Due to a lot of messages asking about this, I need to make clear that in my "Fully Clothed" prize, people need to be fully clothed in the prize. Also, if any underwear is visible in any photo, then your not fully clothed! I thought it was clear what a fully clothed prize would mean, but obviously not. Sorry! **
Just to make something clear right from the word go, I am not against nudity or stripping! There are a couple of reasons I wanted to make this prize:
Reason no1. is that when I'm talking to models about them joining the site, they're put off by all the nudity. I've been told on a number of occasions that they simply won't pose nude (which is fair enough and I will never force anyone to pose nude), and they feel that it looks like all people on this site want is to see nudity, when it's about a lot more then that. I want to encourage people to not strip, but still take gorgeous photos!
Reason no2. is that this time last year I had my Water prize up, and I had a lot of complaints from people saying it was too cold to shoot water shots this time of year! So it shouldn't be too cold for a prize where people stay fully clothed :D
The other thing I want to encourage with this contest is user comments. I see so many people leave votes and not comment on the set! So the winner of this contest won't be my favourite set, and it won't be the set with the highest votes, it'll be the set with the highest number of individual commentors! So a set with 1million votes and one comment would come second to a set with 2 votes and 2 comments :D I'd love to read people's feedback on a set! What they love, what they find funny, anything! There's nothing worse then an incredible photoset, with tonnes and tonnes of votes, but barely any comments!
If anyone has any questions, inbox me! And since this will be won by commentors, I'm only going to allow new sets into this one sorry! Wouldn't be fair on people otherwise!
Good luck and I hope you all enjoy shooting these sets as much as I'll enjoy seeing the sets and all people's comments on them!
**This is a very easy theme to stick to, but I'm going to be strict on it. If there's a set that doesn't stay true to staying fully clothed, I won't let it win, no matter how many comments it gets. Please keep this in mind when making your sets! I'm sorry but it wouldn't be fair on people who'll stick to the theme if I'd let a set like that win! **

by Nymphette
Thank you for the compliments on my new photos! I thought you'd like it!
I also wanted to say thank you for making a "Fully Clothed" prize. Sometimes it's frustrating as a model who doesn't do nudes when it can seem like the hard work and creativity in the set doesn't matter as much as the nudity and I'm glad someone is giving us girls an opportunity too. :)

Hey, one more about your stance on the prize contest ... couldn't agree with you more. Was looking forward to a showcase of the beautiful Zivity models who choose *not* to get naked, and a chance for them to get some exposure, and it's a shame that that's been lost along the way. Kudos.

Sure! It seems like a pretty cool challenge. I am still throwing some ideas around in my head for a cool shoot. I find it admirable that you are trying to put more emphasis on the photography rather than the nudity content so I will definitely try my best to submit a set!

I understand. That does make sense. I like reading comments on other people's sets as well and I get super nosy and curious when I see hundreds of votes and no comments. Although I think some heavy voters prefer to remain anonymous lest they be badgered by the hordes of beautiful models. lol. And thank you for answering my question. I've got my thinking cap on and the gears are turning :)
