Hi Everyone,

I just found this competition which looks really cool and its free to enter. The closing date for enteries is midnight (UK GMT time) on May 4th 2011

I have copied the exact text from the site:
http://www.btoffice.com/blog/office-view-competition/

This month we are launching a bright new competition to welcome in the start of spring.
We are offering all of those stuck in the office this spring the chance to brighten up their surroundings by winning some colourful office furniture or £20 off a piece of original artwork from a burgeoning new artist.

To enter all you need to do is snap a photo on your cameraphone or digital camera of the view from your office window and email it to us at: [EMAIL="theview@btoffice.com"]theview@btoffice.com[/EMAIL]. You don’t need to be a pro, what you lack in photographic ability you can make up for in originality!

We want to know who has the best view in the UK, it can be industrial, floral, funny or iconic, this your chance to make us all jealous!

The winner will receive this colourful, high spec office chair worth over £200 which is available in blue or orange. Perfect for leaning back and enjoying your winning view.

The runner up will receive a voucher for £20 off a piece of art from the South West Artwork Shop (SWA CIC), ideal for brightening up the office wall.

The winner will be judged by Laura Mulhern from SWA CIC and will be announced on May 5th.

How to take part:
Take a creative snap of the view from your office window and email it to us at: [EMAIL="theview@btoffice.com"]theview@btoffice.com[/EMAIL]
Remember to include the title and your Twitter alias in the subject line in your email so we can thank you for your image!

Your photo will then be published on Flickr as well as Facebook and Twitter.

    Hi Destruct :) Thanks for the comp. :) Can you add an end date to your title please and also the word EFFORT. To change the title, click edit, click go advanced and then you can add the end date at the beginning, like this:

    E: 04/05 Win an Office Chair or £20 off a piece of original artwork (EFFORT)

    Thanks Destruct :)
    Never put tables and chairs in the same room.
    If they congregate together for any length of time, they will inevitably hatch plots against you and your pets.

    Hi Forum Police :)

    I was just changing the layout so it was easier to read. I also changed the title so it was more informative. The end date is listed at the bottom of the post, but I will add it near the top. Thanks

    All titles need to be laid out the same to enable people to find then easily - also, if you do not add an end date to your title the comp will be moved to Game Over.
