JPG Magazine Competition
Become a JPG member, upload your photos and have a chance to win a one year subscription and $100 if your photo is published.
We want your best photos, your favorite photos. Photos that you look at and think, you know, there’s something really special about this one, and I’d like to share it with other people who have a thing for photography.
Choose the Theme currently open.
The JPG Uploader will only accept photos that are at least 2200px wide or tall. This requirement is to make sure your photos look good in print! Please do not enlarge your photos to be larger, as it lowers the image quality dramatically.

I’m not sure your participation with COSTCO’s annual photography rights-grab… sorry, photo competiton is well advised.
Let me remind your that item 10 of the Costco comp. rules states: …By participating, entrant agrees that ownership of the entry and all intellectual property rights in the entry is assigned to Costco, and will do all things necessary to give effect to that assignment.
So, let me get this straight. I send Costco a picture, and they take away my copyright (and moral/intellectual rights) and they get the right to use it (and all the other thousands of of entrant’d shots) where ever and when ever they want, for whatever purpose, and in return for this, in case I win, JUST in case I win they’ll give me a staggering $1,500.00 of Costco CREDIT (which after deducting your mark-up, is worth maybe $600.00.
Woopi-Doo, that’s a really great deal Costco.
Why don’t they just call it as it is:
“Hi this is Costco, we need a huge free image bank that we can tap into whenever we like, so send us your best pictures and we might throw three or four of you oh-so lucky so-and-so’s a relatively insignificant sum of credit to spend on something you probably wont want in one of our stores”
