mod post -- Vacation Ads contest starts TOMORROW!

our 'vacation ads' contest starts TOMORROW....

you MUST at least put 'contest' in the subject line of your entry...if i do not at least see the word 'contest' in the subject line i will not count votes for it (regardless if it's a vacation ad or not).....

all ads must be 1990 and prior (all regular vintage ads rules apply---our rules can be found on the community info page)....the only rule i would say not to abide by is to only put one contest entry per post, more than one contest entry per post can be perplexing when it comes to voting.....

print and youtube ads are fine.....

TO VOTE FOR AN AD: put a 'yes' in the comments.....i tally all the yeses....only a YES counts as a vote....if you put "i like this ad" that does NOT count as a vote....and yes, you may vote for your own ad....

also, of course other ads are welcome during a contest!!!

ads for the contest will be accepted through monday july 11 and i'll post the finalists on july 12...and this month we'll be having TWO contests....after this one we'll have 'ads with meat' starting on july 19.....

if you are not sure if something qualifies as an ad, i know that LJ messenger doesn't allow attachments, feel free to send something to me via email misstiaemail@yahoo.com and run it past me first....put 'vintage ads' in the subject please....

as always, if your ads are moderated, please be patient.....i don't plan on going anywhere this week until friday (fingers crossed i don't need to go back to the vet until then), but i DO sleep at night (i'm on eastern standard time)....but i try to diligently check the moderation queue at all times, especially during a contest.....please be patient.....

i think that's it....if you're an american, have a nice 4th of july.....i'm off to watch awesome fireworks tonight.....and EVERYONE, have a great day!
