Calling all Tripawds members, it's time for the 2014 Tripawds Calendar Contest!
Starting this Friday your Tripawd can be considered for the 2014 calendar when you share your one very best Tripawd photo here in the Forums.
Who's Eligible?
All registered Tripawds.com members with living or angel Tripawds, are eligible. Honorary Tripawds (quadpawds undergoing palliative care, those with a limb deformity, etc.) are also welcome to enter. Packs with multiple Tripawds are also eligible.
Photo Requirements:
Only one "Print-Ready" Photo per nominee will be Considered. This means that the one image you share here must be of good enough resolution/size to be printed in a paper calendar. Your original source image must be at least 2300 x 1800 minimum size.
Here's how to tell if your one photo is the right quality:
On a Mac, you'll find the resolution when view the photo and "Get Info" by typing " + i" (Command+I)
On Windows, you can see the photo size when you hover your mouse over it in your Library or image viewer.
Clear as mud? Ask any questions you'd like so we can help you find one great photo.
Here's How the Calendar Voting Will Work:
Round 1:
- Between Friday 10/4 and Friday 10/11, all registered Tripawds.com members can nominate themselves and/or another member here in individual posts within this discussion. Each nominee must have one photo upload accompanying it.
- Not sure how to upload your one photo in the Forums? Read these forum photo upload instructions. If you still need help, contact us, we're happy to assist. Keep in mind that when you post your pic here it will automatically be resized. That's OK. As long as you have your original you're in business.
Round 2:
- Voting will happen between 10/12 and 10/20. Admin and I will start sharing all eligible nominees and their one photo on the Tripawds Facebook page wall on 10/12, spreading them throughout the day. We'll do our best to get them all up on that day so everyone has equal voting time, but it depends on how many nominations are received here.
- Nominees will then ask as friends and family members to “like” their photo. Each “like” = one vote. Tripawds members can vote for each other too!
- The 12 nominees with the most “likes” (votes) received between 10/12 and 10/20 will be in the calendar.
- Winners will be announced the week of 10/21.
We hope this makes sense. Please ask any questions if something's unclear or you need help, then start digging for that one perfect photo!
Thanks so much for your participation. A portion of calendar proceeds help keep the Tripawds.com community online.

Here is our entry... or should I say, "I nominate my girls! 
"
Sweet Angel Brendol and Crazy Girl Adelaide - Karma
Adelaide is a young tripawd Husky, from an injury. Her amp was on 10/1/12. She has 4 sisters, Aissa (a senior border collie/chow), Maggie May (a puppy Great Pyrenees), Mathilde and Morrigan and 1 baby brother, Bagheera. We are all watched over by our angel Brendol, who was dx with OSA 1/30/13, amp on 2/6/13, and left us on 8/20/13.
You can read their stories at http://adelaide.tripawds.com and http://brendol.tripawds.com
I hope this works. 
I have so many favorites of this big boy but this will have to do
lori and chuck
We were so much prettier in our hirsute youth. but pretty is as pretty does, and we have some good recent shots... Will have to decide by the 4th.

-Douglas Adams, The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul
What if there are 3 tripawds in our pack, can we submit a photo for each one of them? Ooops, saw in the instructions that packs with multiple tripawds are eligible but question still stands.Or are we limited to one photo, in which case a collage ala Brendol and Adelaide or a single photo with all 3 would be appropriate.
Woohoo! Tripawds Rule!

Is there any way to vote without facebook? I hate that site (yes, I used the word hate) and will not visit it under any circumstances, nor will I like/post/spread anything facebook related.
tjm we totally understand. If your friends and family are on FB we can still put your pic up. Then you can just email them all to let them know his pic is up, and they can vote as usual. Or you can have them email us directly and we'll tally them up.

Okay TJ's dad-------you weren't very clear....soooooo...you're saying you LIKE facebook, right?
JUST KIDDING!!
You actuallyhave a great point (in my 2¢worth)! Not everyone here uses facebook ....well...maybe there are just two ofus!
If you'll add one vote for everyone who enters from Happy Hannah and myself, that would be great!
Happy Hannah had a glorious additional bonus time of over one yr & two months after amp for osteo! She made me laugh everyday! Joined April's Angels after send off meal of steak, ice cream, M&Ms & deer poop!
Sooooo, of course...just as I hit my reply button..."On top of everything at lightening speed Jerry" has already responded about the facebook stuff!

Sally you're not on the Faceborg either? Well you HAVE to enter her pic! So do my suggestions for TJ's dad work? What do you think? Any ideas for the non-assimilated humans out there are appreciated.
