This looks great. 35% commission is not bad, just adjust your price to make
sure you do OK when something sells. The following in the part that is of
most interest to me:
USE OF IMAGES:
All entrants agree that any image they submit to the Art of Photography Show
may be used for marketing and promotional purposes directly related to the
Art of Photography Show. This use may include publication in any Art of
Photography Show publications, printed materials, advertisements, or
electronic
media, including but not limited to the Art of Photography Show web site,
catalog, DVD, magazine, and gallery shows. Any image used by the Art of
Photography
Show shall carry a credit line of the artist. Copyright and all other rights
remain that of the artist.
Some "contests" including those by our favorite camera manufacturer, require
you to give up your copyright. Sometimes even if you don't "win" anything,
they want it. Either way, I say stay away from folks that want you to
transfer your copyright to them.

I enjoy entering exhibitions - hoping to get a little
recognition and possibly marketing myself. I received
something via email for a show called "The Art of
Photography". I came across a post someplace else
where it was stated that the entry fee is high and the
show sponsors retain the rights to use your photos to
market in the future". Neither of these are a big deal
but I want to make sure the show is legitimate.
I entered a "contest" a couple of months ago..paying a
$4.00 entry fee and I have a strong feeling that I got
taken for a ride. Nothing ever came out of it...the
'website' stated that they would show winning photos
on the site - that never happened.
Anyway here is a portion of the msg:
Call For Entries!
