A Poster Giveaway.

Not that long ago I decided to stop my BlogHer ads. Not that I minded the ads, but I really wasn’t getting much from them, and instead I was missing out on other opportunities because I couldn’t participate due to their advertising policies.

About a month ago, I picked up a Sponsor for my blog, Uprinting.com.

They sponsor my blog, which helps pay my hosting fees and in addition they offer giveaways every month or so and I can choose whether or not I offer them to you. This is the first one I am participating in and will see how you guys like it.

Since Photography is one of my favorite things, and so many of you are also fabulous photographers I thought this would be a great giveaway to participate in. UPrinting is offering myself and one of you an 18×24″ digitally printed high-gloss or demi-gloss poster. Two of the products offered by Uprinting is Poster Printing and Custom Poster Printing which allows you to print one or many posters at a time.

All you have to do to win one is leave me a comment and describe which photo you would pick to have blown up to poster size.  This is the photo I am going to send in:

It speaks to me of summer, one of our favourite places to go and be together as a family.

So let me know, which photo would you choose?

Contest closes August 6th, Winners will receive their coupon code via email on August 7th.

*Giveaway is open to US/CAN residents. Ground shipping of prizes is free, but there is a $5 handling fee that must be paid by winner. UPrinting reserves the right not to print obscene or offensive materials.

All designs submitted in the form of a giveaway may be used by UPrinting for online marketing and promotional uses. The designs will be used solely as examples and will not be printed or commercially distributed.

    I would probably choose one of the photos of our last beach vacation which was just about 2 years ago now! We really need to go again!

    Or perhaps one of the pictures we took at Lake Louise a few years ago. It was a cloudy day when we were there, but the color of the water was still amazing!

    Wow! Congrats on landing such a great sponsor! I’m going to poke around their site (I ALWAYS need printing too!) but I wanted to throw in an answer for the giveaway.

    I like the pic your chose for your poster. I *really* loved the one you brought to BOLO.

    I’ve always wanted to take a photo of a piece of toast, get it blown up really big, and hang it in our kitchen.

    Or maybe it’d be better to get one from our Maritime road trip last summer. There’s a partial set here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/fishbowl_fish/sets/72157606630975086/

    (I knew I couldn’t just pick one!)

    My daughter loves posters to put all over the walls of her room. So I would let her pick out a picture.

    Great giveaway and sponsor!!
    It would be tough to choose but I think I’d have to go with a photo of my family. I need a bigger house to put up all the photos of my loved ones I want to have up on the walls 🙂

    Hmmm. I don’t take much in the way of artistic or beautiful photos — all of mine are of my kids. Ideally I’d make the poster a shot of all three of them, but I can’t remember the last time I managed to capture all three in the same shot! I think I’d have to take a new photo…or else just scam one of yours :).

    I am sure I could find a photo of the boys that would look great poster sized. Or maybe wait till the baby is here and get one of all 3 🙂

    We’ve lived in this house for 14 months and all we have up on the walls is a clay lizard my then-four-year old painted. So sad. I’s probably get one of our pic from Argentina blown up.

  • Kami July 31, 2009, 5:59 pm

    I would pick one of the ones I took in the Bahamas though I took them with my point and shoot 4.0 megapixel…alternatively a flower shot I did recently because it would look lovely in my bathroom

    Great giveaway!

    Great giveaway! Umm… tough choice… I think I’d get a picture of my boys from our trip to Bahamas blown up! 🙂

  • Shannon August 1, 2009, 8:26 am

    I’ll have to check out that site! I have a ton of stuff I NEED printed but never got around to! I think I’d get one of our wedding photos blown up for our new house. Married 5 years yesterday! We should have at least one photo up of the special day shouldn’t we?? 🙂

    Excellent giveaway! And congrats on the sponsor.
    I would choose a photo of the two kids. My son was only 2 and half months and is sitting in his sister’s lap in the picture. It is pretty cute.

    If your contest is still open and if I won, I would have this picture from BOLO poster-sized.

    Then I would give it to the blogger on the far left of the image.
