    That really, really winds me up too!!! :mad:

    EXACTLY the same thing happened a while ago in a FB comp by The Range to win a barbecue. The task was to answer a question. But, surprise surprise, someone I'm sure we're all familiar with entered with a wacky zany photo (which they'd already used in numerous other BBQ comps) and was selected as the winner.

    It's not fair towards the people who follow the competition rules.

    why cant she do that? adding a photo is against the rules? be happy for her, shes done nothing wrong.

    I agree she can add a photo if she wants, and no it's not against the rules.

    The point I was making was that entrants were required to answer a question to enter the comp. It wasn't a photography competition. But like the Aldi comp mentioned above, it can't be a coincidence that the winning entry happened to be a humourous staged photo. If they'd said in the rules "enter by submitting a funny/creative photo" then the other thousands of people, who all followed the rules, might have stood more of a chance.
