Ratings before October 31, 2008 will be cleared and do not count. Only registered Airsoft Pacific users can rate photos, and they may only rate photos once.

Judging Criteria:

1. 40% Costume Quality. How much effort did you put into your costume?

2. 40% Authenticity. How close you look to the real thing.

3. 20% Creativity & Originality. How cool was your idea? Did everybody else have it?

Rules:

1. Any entrant 13 years or older with a valid Airsoft Pacific account may enter the contest.

To prove the authenticity of your photo, you will be required to submit an additional photo in the costume with a sign that reads, “I Love AP!” This can be hand-written on a piece of paper in your hand. This doesn’t have to be your contest photograph for public rating, but you should have it and be prepared to submit it. Take it while you’re taking your other photo, don’t forget! Entrants with no authentication photo will not be eligible for prizes.

4. Photographs must not contain any nudity, profanity or any content unsuitable for audiences as young as 13.
