All entries must be sent via email to Christos by 6 pm Tuesady, 15th December 2015. I'll send the email address to all entrants a little closer to the submission date.


Please send in 4 photos of your project, including a photo of the pallet you picked up. All pictures must be sent via email to Christos on or before the finishing time and date( 6pm, 15th December 2015).


Photos sent must meet the same criteria as the Forum Photo standards as this will make it easier for you to send in your submission and for us to create the photo voting thread.

Please send photos of your pallet and project even if it's unfinished, so we can still have a look at what you were up to.

Judging:
This is going to be a mebers only vote.

The poll will be open from the day the photo thread is up and will close on the 23rd of December 2015.

In the event of a draw, the final decision will be made by Ubeaut, who has judged at national level.
