I know what you're thinking... I'm usually late with these things, so to post a contest early, something big must be happening.
For July, I have a twist on the usual photo contest. I have ordered a number of Army.ca temporary tattoos, which will be arriving later this month. July's contest is to drum up photos of Army.ca users showing their "site spirit." Use of aforementioned tattoos is encouraged.
To get your (free) temporary tattoos, just let me know your name and shipping address and I'll drop a few in the mail to you. I'm sending out the tattoos for free, but my shipping budget is small... Please consider group requests where possible! (Please consider requesting a batch for your course, the orderly room, your cell block etc. instead of individual requests.)
Please DO NOT post your address in this thread. Instead, send it to me via PM or e-mail. If you're ordering for a group please let me know the details. I'll try to accommodate all requests but as always, it's "while supplies last."
Also note, I will not re-use shipping addresses beyond this contest. (As anyone who has ordered multiple things knows: I always have to ask for their address again!)
My hope is to have them delivered before Canada Day weekend, so you can really show your Canadian spirit. The possibilities are almost limitless... remember, we have some younger visitors so please keep the photos clean and inline with the Guidelines.
Here are the official photo contest rules:
