Q: Is there a particular theme or direction?
A: We're not looking for any particular theme or direction, but we're looking for photos that would be appropriate for and look good on our web site.
Q: Can I submit a photo that has been featured on a blog?
A: If a photo has been featured on an individual's blog, you may submit it. If it's been featured on a company's blog, we'll consider that "published" and it shouldn't be submitted.

Anyone can enter!

This may be a goofy question, but here goes: Is the subject of the photo open to interpretation or is there a specific theme?

Can we just enter one photo? Or are multiple photos allowed?

I'm wondering what the terms of "property of American Crafts" entails...does that mean that I cannot use the photo for other purposes such as on my blog or in my photo galleries?
