It starts now!

The Theme:

Umm yeah, summer lover! Ain't it grand?? Ladies and gents annually wonder off into the cancer ridden sunlight and finding a piece of hot ass to mac on for about 3-4 months until school starts and your butt is kicked to the side like stained undies (maybe visa versa lol). But every now and again we find those long lasting, beautiful loves that last a lifetime and smolder like the sunset.

But let me touch back on reality for a minute; if your reading this, then your probably not one of the millions of kids gettin it on this summer. Your like me, someone who hisses at the sun and prefers to watch looped trailers of Tim Burton's new movie while quietly snickering to yourself. Your not gonna be with anyone anytime soon, so your reading this contest to fill some more time until school forces you into the sunlight at ungodly hours of the morning. Now, if your still reading this, your a true die hard. Your the one who's gonna actually enter this contest! And good for you man! We have some choice prizes this time around!

Guidelines!:

Work will be judged on overall impact and technique. we're looking for couples only! DUH! And the theme should be somewhat summer related, but I'm pretty loose about what "summer" entails. I think as long as the trees are green, and there's no snow, I'll fly with it. If your couple is in summer school lol, go ahead and put that in.

Starts: June 9^th (cause that's when my school enters summer break!)
Ends: August 3^rd (we'll be gearing up for school by then)
