Thanks to a tweet from Argus this morning, I found out about this really cool photo contest by one of my favourite shops: [LeeZU]!
Usually I am not at all into contests of any kind in SL, specially not photo-competitions – as they tend to be popularity contests, rather than a real competition. Anyway! This one is different. All you have to do is wear five items from [LeeZu] and take a pic. It’s not about the quality of the photo, you may submit a simple screenshot. As long as you are wearing the 5 items from LeeZu (eyes, hair and jewelry excluded!). For full details I suggest you go to the main store and grab the official notecard with instructions!
Once you enter and the outfit is checked, you already won something! You may then choose a nice piece of clothing in a colour of your choice, from a list that is in the notecard. The grand prize is a photo shoot, your pic in the store and on their website and more clothing.
Sooooo, I went through my inventory and managed to dress myself up in the mandatory 5 LeeZu pieces, took a nice picture and sent it to Barbara Nicholls:

Within 2 hours I got a very nice IM from Barbara that my entry was approved and will be going for the Grand Prize (heh!) and since it was according the rules I could pick something from the list. Yay!
I already had a peek in the shop this morning, so that was easy: I choose the Arabesque Blouse in Pink – which I received immediately! Double yay!

You can still enter the contest, closing date is 15 July and the winner of the Grand Prize will be announced on the 16th. But hey..I already feel a winner, it was fun going through my stuff, making the picture AND getting a lovely blouse for free!
What a fun outfit, Cait! Mine was a mash-up of various pink things. I guess I should post it somewhere and I chose the Baby Pink Courtisane Lingerie. Good Luck to all.. fun contest!
Ty! I just saw yours via twitter :p. Looking good! It is a fun contest indeed, as I was determined to only use stuff I already had, and not buying new ..haha! I managed!
Oh their lingerie is amazing :). In fact, I like most of the outfits….”))
What a shame. Personally I have alts that stay fairly quiet unless needed to help with permissions checking or battles for fun to be fought with weapons. I would not shut any of them down. They all reflect a part of my psyche that needs expressing at times. OTOH, you are stimulating the SL Economy so you go girl;-)
