This months contest theme is Blenny or Goby photos. Photo dimensions cannot exceed a 150k file size and should have an aspect ratio (or be croppable) compatible with a standard calendar page (approx. 11x8.5" or thereabouts). Each person can enter one photo into the contest. Remember that if you win we'll need a full size version of your photo to use for the 2008 Reef Central Calendar
Good luck everyone!

For everyone who is not familiar with how to post images-- this article will teach you how to resize the images, clean them up in a photo editing program (has a link to a free editor), how and where to find image hosting sites, and finally, how to post the image here in the body of the thread.

[Blazer88]

Does a Mandarin count as a goby?

[Phyllia131]

Is tastefull, yet blatent photoshop allowed?

[gregr]

Mandarin is a goby so yep. Regarding the Photoshop question-- the policy with this kind of thing is to let the voters decide.

[Phyllia131]

Goby / Dragonett, Whats the difference?

[bwest]

I'm not trying to get into any kind of argument here, but a mandarin is not a goby, being that they're in the dragonet family.
