The word from the Spominator, Litter's chief paparazzo and factory sponsored online mountainbiker on Litter's next Online Supplement is;

"The staff at Litter "Mega"zine is extremely lazy. So lazy in fact, that no one managed to get a useable cover shot for the next Online Supplement. Now we're offering our hard earned money to you, the huckster and photojock. Litter will pay $200.00 USD(that was given to us by another popular mtn bike magazine for their cover shot) for the most cover worthy image we receive by April 19th, 2004. The winning image will be used as the cover to the Online Supplement scheduled to go live on April 30th, 2004.

We don't care if you're a pro (Hylands, Sterling, etc. get to it) or if it's the first photo you've shot in your life (kids, go get dad's digicam) as long as the photo has something to do with bike riding.

The winning photograph will be selected by the Litter staff and you won't know who wins until you see the cover. I suppose rumors could leak out onto the web beforehand, but it's unlikely that they will be true.

Conditions:
-E-MAIL submissions only.
-If it's not your photo, we won't use it. Fraudulent photo submissions will be discarded and your email address will be sent to the FBI or cops or something.
-Photo must be submitted by the PHOTOGRAPHER and must include the First and Last name of the Photographer and Rider(s).
-A valid email address must accompany the photo (if it doesn't and you win, you won't get paid).
-Any bike with 24" wheels or more than 10" of travel will be discarded (JUST KIDDING!)
-First and Last Name of rider and photographer required.
-Litter "Mega"zine reserves the right to crop, adjust and alter submitted images as necessary.

Specs:
-High Quality RGB format JPEG files only (no tif, gif, bmps etc...just jpegs).
-Cover will be displayed @ 652 pixels tall by 424 pixels wide @ 72dpi.
-The bigger the file, the better, as far as we're concerned.
-A "vertical" layout is preferred. If a landscape shot is sent in and wins, it will be cropped to fit the cover specs mentioned above.
-Color images only. Litter will not consider black & white or monochrome images for submission."

So get out there, get snapping and send your photos to Litter in the hopes of a glorious cash prize!
