    If I am reading the untranslated version correctly, this:

    4. The period for submissions of photos to the contest via web is starting from 16:00 hours on January 12, 2007, until , Rome, Italy time (GMT + 01). No entries will be accepted outside this time window.
    Should indicate a deadline of Midnight (Rome, Italy time), January 28, 2007.

    Awesome another one. I'm gonna totally enter it this time.
    The solution to your problem is to fence another weapon.

    Do a google search on "Britta Heidemann" and Playboy. She got Olympic gold in WET in Athens, IIRC.


    Have a nice time!

    Hey, Peter, that's a pretty picture of Britta, but the rules say NO NUDITY!

    By the way can one submit a photo taken some time ago? Time is pretty short to go out and shoot someone...

    Incidentally, how many $ are 300 euros today?

    If I had more time or were lucky I'd stalk the Kournikova girl during her saber practice... (I wish!).

    You can submit photos taken in the past, as long as they have not been published somewhere else.

    Good luck!

    The deadline has been extended to February 1, 2007

    Following from Schermaonline:

    Clicks & Touches Photo Contest

    Extension of the Deadline for Submitting Your Photos

    The deadline for the photo contest Clicks & Touches - Scatti e Stoccate is extended to February 1, 2007, 23:59 Rome time [GMT + 01]. Registrations and photo submissions past this revised deadline will not be accepted.

    The reason for this extension is that unfortunately for the past 24 hours our web site has been the victim of a hacker attack. We are doing our best to restore the operation, but some features are not yet accessible. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you.

    Yah, I just now received an email from info@schermaonline.com which said bad things about Armenians and something else in a language I don't understand. I assume they're still having hacker issues.
