Now Accepting Calendar Photo Submissions for the Doodle Kisses 2012 Calendars!!!

[Adina P]

As of today, September 1st, Doodle Kisses will now be accepting photo submissions for our 2012 Doodle Kisses Labradoodle & Goldendoodle* Calendars. I will first link you to the photo requirements and then I will tell you how to submit and what email to send them to--ALL the info is here and in the link...please read it very carefully so you don't miss anything. It is lengthy.

We have created a list of photo requirements to help guide you in choosing an appropriate photo(s) of your doodle(s). Please be sure to read these requirements carefully so you choose high quality photos: http://www.doodlekisses.com/page/calendar-photo-requirements -- this will help you avoid wasting time sending photos that will immediately be disqualified.


Now ... on to How to Submit Photos

1) Send ONLY ONE photo PER EMAIL ONLY--I know this is tedious, but if you do it wrong I'll make you do it over :-/ It helps tremendously in sorting photos if you only send ONE photo per email. So if you have 1 photo you send one email. If you have 5 photos, you send 5 separate emails.

2) You may submit up to 5 photos PER doodle you own.

3) In your email please tell me what TYPE of doodle you have that is in the photo (labradoodle or goldendoodle or whatadoodle*) and tell me what your DK Profile name is.

4) IF ANY of your photos are professionally taken you must confirm that you have rights to use said photo(s) in a calendar that will be sold. Also if the photographer wants a copyright notice with the photo (i.e. Adina Pearson Photography (c) ) then please let me know that information.

5) Send your photos to

That's it!

Deadline for Submissions: September 30, 2012---please bookmark this discussion or click "Follow" at the bottom of the thread to say up-to-date on any changes which DK Admin reserve the right to make at any time. It will be your responsibility to keep informed on this by reading through the responses to this discussion because these may contain clarification and additional tips. Selection of final calendar photos will be done by DK Admin and is subject to their best judgment

* Because Doodle Kisses is primarly a site for labradoodle and goldendoodle owners, our two main calendars will only feature labradoodles and goldendoodles (and double doodles/NAR's). However, our multi-doodle calendar will accept photos of other commonly accepted doodles such as aussiedoodles. While we love all dogs, we have to stay true to our site's focus. If you have a rescue doodle and are not sure what precise type it is...just take your best guess when listing the type of doodle your dog is.

**As always a portion of proceeds from sales of these calendars will be donated to doodle and dog rescue organizations.

Adina, stupid question here. Is there a difference between [e-mail] and [e-mail]? 

 

I submitted 2 to the all caps e-mail but only one of those two to the lower caps one... 

[Adina P]

should not be a diff.

[Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle]

This is my question, too. Can you tell us for sure if you've gotten submissions that were sent to the "all caps" version of the email? I just want to make sure my submissions were received.

[Adina P]

It doesn't matter because google mail is not case sensitive.  For example there is not the option of all these email addresses:

DKcalendars@gmail...

DkCaLeNdArs@gmail...

dkCALENDARS@gmail...

 

As long as the letters are in the right order it should get through.  Otherwise it would be pretty confusing and emails would get sent to the 'wrong' email all the time when people forgot/added caps in the wrong place.  That and if the email simply didn't exist it would come back to you.

[Adina P]

PS - I checked and found one from Camilla to the all caps email.  And I found 3 total (to whatever email) from Karen.

[Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle]

Thanks Adina!

[Harper]

Quick question - are we allowed to submit photos of our doodle with another doodle (on DK)?  Harper hangs out with her buddies Mochi and Latte all the time and we have some very cute photos of them together, but I'm unclear with whether we can submit photos of our doodle with other doodles that aren't our own.  I can of course get approval from Mochi and Latte's mom.

[Adina P]

As long as YOUR doodle is in the photo, other doods may be in the photo too :)
