Show me your banana photo contest – Win free hosting

I’ve been asked to hold a photo competition!

The photo contest is being provided by Banana Hosting and the contest winner will win a year of free hosting at Banana Hosting. The hosting plan can be any Banana XL plan (Unix or Windows) worth $172.80.

The Details:

I’m going to make this photo contest really simple.

Submit a photo of a Banana in action.

By this I mean doing something like driving a car, dancing at a party, trying to pick up another banana at a night club, swimming, doing a high jump … anything like that. Use your imagination but keep it PG.

This is your chance to be creative. Show me your sense of humor.

All submissions must be “Family Safe” entries. No photos of bananas getting hurt, or maimed and nothing sexual. Just nice fun photos.

The contest will begin as of today and will run until Midnight Eastern Standard Time, Friday April, 6th, 2007. I’d like to have at least 10 entries by the time the contest closes. If I don’t have 10 entries by Friday April 6th, I will extend the contest for another week or until I have at least 10 entries.

I know my readers enjoy photography so I hope getting the minimum amount of entries won’t be a problem.

How to submit your photos:

1. If you have a blog or website you may post your “Show me your Banana” photo contest entry on your site – however, you must leave a link in the comment section of this post to the page or post on this site so that I can see your entry easily.
2. If you have a Flickr or free photo hosting account (Photobucket etc) You can leave a comment with a link to your photo entry in this post.
3. No website or free photo host? No problem. Just send me an email with your photo entry attached. I’ll post the photo for you. My email is dragonden AT rogers DOT com.

Please submit photos of good quality. Only photos will be accepted. Please do not submit drawings, artwork or CGI entries.

I will choose the contest winner at my own digression. I will be judging the contest for most creative and likely most humorous photo. So please use your imagination!

This is a fantastic prize.

If any of you are currently using a free hosting such as blogspot, wordpress.com, xanga or any of the others now is your opportunity to start a new site of your very own. Become a domain owner and have so much more freedom as to how you run your website. I can’t begin to tell you how much nicer it was when I finally started to host my websites on my own. Now you can too – and free for a whole year!

Note: If you make an entry on your own site for the photo contest you might want to mention that www.bananahosting.com is the creator this great photo contest here on As the Garden Grows.

Send your entries in as soon as possible. I’m eager to see how creative you can be!
