We have been overwhelmed by you; website users, facebook fans, and twitter followers – overwhelmed with excitement that you’ve not only embraced our idea of “Moms helping Moms,” but you’ve FAR surpassed our hopes for spreading the word about us to your friends, family, and business owners!
The daily suggestion list has grown, the comments and ratings on places that are already listed is growing, AND best of all – thanks to YOU GUYS, our fan base is growing! Your positivity keeps us moving forward and we appreciate all of the feedback you send in!
Since we love the topic of traveling with children, we wanted to host another FAN PHOTO CONTEST, this time with a travel theme! We’re looking for any photo of your child (ages 0-10) in the car! Please read over the rules (lengthy, I know but everyone needs to be aware of how the contest works so you can all have a fair shot!!)
******RULES OF ENTRY*******
ELIGIBILITY: The Contest is open to any child ages 0-10 who has been entered by their parent. Household members of Bye Bye with Baby employees are not eligible. The Contest is subject to all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations and is void where prohibited by law. ONE winner will be chosen overall, FIVE runner-up photos will be chosen as well.
HOW TO ENTER: You may enter online at the Bye Bye with Baby Facebook page (you must become a fan to enter, click here to become a fan) by adding a photograph to the Bye Bye with Baby fan page wall. You must include the child’s FIRST NAME ONLY. Last day to submit entry to our Facebook photos/wall is SUNDAY, August 29, 2010.
You may only submit one (1) photo per child per household. BBwB reserves the right to disqualify multiple entries. Incomplete or inaccurate entries are void. BBwB is not responsible for any lost, late, incomplete, invalid, unintelligible, or misdirected registrations, which will be disqualified.
CONTEST PHOTO FORMAT RESTRICTIONS: Copyright: All photos and descriptions must be your own. Do not submit a photo or description created by someone other yourself. All entry information becomes the property of BBwB. By entering the contest, entrants grant BBwB a perpetual, royalty-free, worldwide license to display any submitted photographs. Entrant name may be displayed on the BBwB fan page and within BBwB advertising and promotions without any fee or other form of compensation.
We have noticed privacy settings or phone upload settings not allowing other users to view photos or find the child they would like to vote for. In some isntances, the moderators of our fan page (and The Mom Squad members) have not seen photo submissions so please make certain the photos you share have privacy settings that allow us to see your picture!
JUDGING CRITERIA AND SELECTION OF WINNERS: Submissions will come to an end on Sunday and The Mom Squad will then organize the entries for voting. Bye Bye with Baby Facebook fans will be able to vote for their favorites from Monday, August 30th – Sunday, September 5, 2010. The winners will be announced on MONDAY, September 6th, 2010 on our Facebook fan page. Users will be able to “LIKE” the photos in the contest album (and facebook only allows one “Like” per photo)
Facebook Fans of BBwB will have the opportunity to vote for their favorite kids by “liking” their photo in the contest album. Multiples submitted in the same photo count as “one vote” for that and in the event they get the most votes, they will both be considered the “sole” winner.
******RULES FOR VOTING*******
The Mom Squad will go through the photos that have been submitted, add them to a new folder with no comments or “likes,” and unlock the album when the contest voting opens up.
VOTING TIMELINE: Voting will begin first thing Monday morning (literally, 12AM central) August 30, 2010 and is open to any Facebook fan of Bye Bye with Baby. There is no limit on fans or votes; asking your family and friends to vote for your child is acceptable and encouraged. Voting is open from Monday through Sunday, September 5, 2010, coming to a close at 12 MIDNIGHT (central).
To vote for your favorite, simply “like” the photo of the child you choose in the labeled contest album. Voters are allowed like as many photos as they want.
To share our Fan page with others, simply click “Suggest to Friends” underneath our default photo. You can choose who you’d like to send an invitation to, however you cannot add a personal message this way. If you would like to share our page with your friends but also mention for them to vote for your child, we suggest you post a status message with a link to our fan page by typing @bye-bye with baby (right after you type @b it should list friends/pages that start with b, continue typing until you find bye-bye with baby or select us right away from the list) and YOU MUST CLICK IT FROM THE DROP DOWN LIST to add our page in the message. This will “tag” our page and directly link to it.
