Re: Event
Im just saying we shouldn't put money here just yet. Wait for a few events to see how much attention it gets. If not alot of new people appear, then just one person with good camera will be super rich 

Ants I have-
camponotus compressus colony- the shadow warriors.
Pls just let me have a tetramorium colony

Re: Event
Well, I am going to start working on this. What do you guys think of the contest starting in May? I don't think that the photo should have to be from the month the contest is in, but if this event is recurring, I think it should be a rule that you can not use the same photo twice. Alright, I'm going to start outlining some rules:
- One submission per user
- Submissions should be of ants
- Respect the outcome of the event and be a good sport
- Do not make fun of somebody's photo, or brag about our own
- Please be mindful of the quality of your photo, do not submit a phot the is excessively blurring
- One vote per user
- You may not vote for your own photo
- Do not try to create multiple accounts to vote with
Why keep ants that aren't found in your yard?
There are so many fascinating ants right where you live!
I disagree with the keeping/buying of ants that aren't in your area.

Re: Event
I think there should also be a rule where you shouldn't kill the ants.
For eg if you want a photo of the ant on a flower, don't kill the ant and put it on the flower.
Oh and also don't edit the photo. Keep it original

The first one sounds good, but I always crop my photos. No editing except cropping how about?Antloverhuman wrote: ↑Sat Mar 25, 2023 8:34 amI think there should also be a rule where you shouldn't kill the ants.

Re: Event
Yeah thats more precise
By editting i meant like saturation changes or adding fake colours to make the photo beautiful
Just keep the photos in original conditions

Re: Event
Who would be interested in participating in this contest? Just wondering if people would actually be interested in this.

Re: Event
If you did a pic contest we all would probably have different ants.
I am interested though.
What is to stop someone taking a pic off the internet? Also I have only a few ant species at my home.

Why don’t more people like ants?
Is anyone from Wyoming who wants to sell ants?
You can email me about ants at Tucker.reynolds13@gmail.com
