Re: Bananas Quarterly Issue 3 Photo Contest
For those who were wondering, this is the cover-photo winner. Thanks, Frank!
Any of you who receive a PM from me in the following couple of days, please be sweethearts and send me your high-res versions! Oh, and anybody wishing to be credited to both their first and last names should send those to me as well - otherwise I'll credit just your first name (or your screen name, if you haven't provided a first name).

Re: Bananas Quarterly Issue 3 Photo Contest
Ha... well I guess you never know what will happen when you hold your 5 year old, first model Kodak digital camera up over your head and click down on a plant!
Thanks Judges!

So...I'm surfing the internet today and come across my photo on a cover of BQ magazine. Lorax had deliberately misspelled my last name so it would be difficult for me to find. I sent her an email, but got no response. What a slimeball...

Re: Bananas Quarterly Issue 3 Photo Contest
Pretty sad the way this all worked out. I thoroughly enjoyed my time helping work on the magazine and then to find out all the underhanded things that were going on that I had no clue about. Maybe some day we can do our own version again.

Re: Bananas Quarterly Issue 3 Photo Contest
I don't know all the stuff that happened and I don't want to. I do wish something like this could take place again though. It seemed like a great idea.

Re: Bananas Quarterly Issue 3 Photo Contest
It went belly up. There were publishing issues.
There's a post about it somewhere, I forget where, but it explains everything that happened. This explains it Bananas Quarterly!!! Last edited by jmoore : 05-21-2013 at 02:17 PM. |
