The 9th annual SNAZAROO Summer-Free-For-All contest has officially started! This is a chance to compete against your peers internationally. As usual we will accept cheek art, half faces, full faces and even body art that complies with our PG-13 guidelines. THINK ORIGINAL and seek to send in ideas that are not like the 7,000 photos already posted to the SNAZAROO photo pages. Try to come up with different approaches to those faces you have seen. We are not saying we will not accept the tiger, Spiderman or butterfly face be we are asking you send in either new twists to the design or superior work. I am asking our photo queens to turn away the photo if it is very similar to art work that was sent in earlier. It takes these ladies many hours to process photos and to cut that back we will turn away photos that have been seen and posted before.

Please focus on your photography! Zoom in on the painted portion of the face and be mindful of the lighting. Keep the image size under 350kb. If it is larger that that your image will be discarded. Read all the posting rules at www.snazaroo.us/upload.htm 

We will post a maximum of 50 photos per page. Like in the past, the top five photos will move on to a finalist page for a final vote. no more than 5 photos per page per artist. We stop receiving photos the last day of August. Do not wait until the last month and send in a rush of photos.

SNAZAROO in the UK will sponsor the prizes for the European Union. If you live outside these areas the prize are still there but you must pay for shipping and duty from our office to your home. Prizes and certificates must be claimed within 90 days of closure of the contest.
