Windows Live Spaces Runs Photo Contest

Windows Live Spaces is running the Get Real! Photo Contest, inviting Live Spaces users to post their best photos and win prizes. All entries will be judged based on community votes, with only amateur photopgraphers allowed to compete (a professional is anyone who makes more than 50% of their income from taking photos) in the contest, which runs through the end of June.

To enter, you need a Windows Live Space (which is free, of course). Upload photos to your Space, then go to the contest website and submit them for review. Up to 15 photos may be submitted per day by each person, and you cannot submit the same image twice. Users vote on their favorite photos, one vote per day, with daily, weekly and grand prizes given out to the top vote getters in each period (you can only win each type of prize once, but you can theoretically win one each of all three).

The daily prize is a Digital Framez digital photo frame, estimated value $109. 48 will be given out.

The weekly prize is a Canon Powershot SD800 IS 7.1 megapixel digital camera, estimated value $359. 7 will be given out.

The grand prize is a Toshiba 42-inch HD LCD TV and a Canon Powershot G7 digital camera, estimated value $1,700.
