Welcome to the ride of the month thread. Please read the rules carefully:
RULES HAVE CHANGED FOR JUNE’S ROTM!!!

Voting for the JUNE ride winner will start April 28th. Submissions accepted until 11:59p, May 27th, Pacific Time!!

1. Unfortunately, the poll is limited to only 20 options. Last month we filled all 20 options and still not everybody made it to the voting round. This month’s competition will be even more difficult. Nearing the end of the month, the mod staff will decide on FIVE of the best submissions to make it to the voting round. [We will look for submissions that have great image clarity (grainy photos are unlikely to be included), those that ascetically will work/look good in the banner of the site, good background choices, unique modifications, attention to detail, etc.] If we feel more users deserve their submissions to make it to the voting round, more options may be added, but no more then TEN submissions will make it to the voting round.

This will drive the quality of the ROTM contest up- so get your game up!!

2. Each member is allowed up to FIVE pictures, which cannot be changed once submitted. A good idea for these five images would be: ENGINE, INTERIOR, two EXTERIOR shots, and an additional shot of CHOICE (of your car). Any posts edited by the user will result in disqualification of the June ROTM contest- no posting and then changing once others have submitted! (PM TRIZ if you have any issues with edits to your post after it has been posted.)

Upon the close of submissions, your images will be turned into one file that will be voted on. Here is an example with some pictures from Rufu’s car. (We’re still working on the aesthetics of the layout)

3. Picture submissions MUST be 800x600 in size and in good resolution (at least 2MPix). Pay attention to your photo quality! If any of your submissions are not 800x600 in size, your submission will be deleted. You are not disqualified and you can resubmit the correct image sizes before the deadline. Last month we had several users images that distorted the thread window and significantly decreased the loading time of the thread. Open Photoshop and check your image sizes!!

4. Competition will be steep so make your best effort and select a good background and shoot professional looking photos. PLEASE READ THIS to make your photos MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH MUCH BETTER!!!: LogicWavelength, drew22mader and dirtySAMURAIs Guide Automotive Photography *NEW PIX* Attention to detail is important, so please wash/detail your car before you shoot photos!!

5. Mod list in the same post as submissions is optional.

6. The winner will have their picture in a forum announcement until we can include the winner’s image in the forum header. All images submitted will be displayed in the forum announcement in their full 800x600 submission size. An optional write up on your experience getting your car to the point it is, any hardships, and future plans will also be included with your image and optional mod list if you choose to write one after winning. We encourage that you do write about your experience!

7. Only a civic can win ROTM and have their image displayed in the sites header. Non-civics can be submitted. If a non-civic happens to win the contest, they will be displayed in a forum-wide announcement for the month, but the next highest voted civic submitted will be placed as the sites header image.

8. This thread is for entries only. DO NOT COMMENT ON PHOTOS in this thread unless it’s in your submission- PM THE USER YOU WANNA HOLLAR. Comment posts will be deleted, resulting in disqualification from the JUNE ROTM contest. Yes, we're strict about this!

9. To be sure you understand the rules, post “I accept” at the beginning of your post. Rules for ROTM change from month to month- so read them to the end!

10. If you've won in the past 6 months, you are ineligible.

This thread will be turned into a poll beginning WED 28th of this month for voting.

Will close June 3rd month. The ride with the most votes wins!!

Dates:
Submissions will be accepted until Tuesday 27th 11:59p, Pacific Time.
Voting will be held from May 28th to June 3rd 11:59p, Pacific Time.

Confused? Questions? Do not post them here, PM TRIZ

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!

Bitches, if I'll submit my stock ride against these guys, none of you have any excuse for this pitiful turnout.

Hell, right now I've got a 33% chance of winning.

WOW clean cars guys, hard to pick one!

hypnotic20

Wow, this is going to be a hard one

Unevolved

Is the typo in my username a joke, Triz?

SSMCivic2k5

iTrader: (6)

had to vote for rufus because of 3 reason:

Gearbox: Nice and Clean, but not modded like Rufus.
Unevolved: Pretty Much Stock
tfnaaf: Was in line to get my vote, but tails and the indiglo turned me off.....Thats what i have to say...

Also, I think all cars are nice and clean so don't think im hating!

TRIZ

iTrader: (14)

Haha, no I was just tired I guess. All fixed

Unevolved

It's in there more or less as a joke, since no one was entering. Somehow I've garnered three votes already.

Unevolved

I just noticed something... Since Havok just made me a Photoshop mod, everyone that entered is a mod. Not sure if that's cool or pitiful.

Rufus

iTrader: (17)

haha we had some slackers this month for sure. I didn't even post a mod list. Here's a rundown: everything is modded. lol

andyman97

iTrader: (14)

Even thought you're a dirty *****, I voted your car....

Rufus

iTrader: (17)

I told you the rash cleared up. I feel like you never listen to me.

robbclark1

iTrader: (8)

Since the competition is DRASTICALLY falling, maybe I will enter soon!

TRIZ

iTrader: (14)

You should. I had changed to rules to include a mandatory 5 pictures... apparently thats too hard for most members.

And remember, previous winners cant have a second win within 6 months- so maybe a strategy would be to wait till the heavy hitters win, and then sneak in after them.

why Unevolved

My car is better

robbclark1

iTrader: (8)

because he got his pics and other information in before the deadline and you didn't.

Rufus

iTrader: (17)

Wait.. so I can't win again next month?!

sniperscout

iTrader: (8)

damn it! i always miss the submission deadline

TRIZ

iTrader: (14)

Nope, you gotta sit your *** out next to andy. Its in the rules on the first post.

TRIZ

iTrader: (14)

Every month submissions will open 2 weeks before the end of the month. Submissions will close before that last week of the month, and the last week of the month is reserved for voting. This month just happened to get started off a little late because I was busy. If you have AIM, I'll AIM it to you every month, as I did with all the users on my AIM list- None of my 7th gen AIM buddies represented.

Unevolved

Cause I entered and you didn't, ho.

Hey Triz, you convinced me to enter. Hell, I even got like 4 votes.

Rufus

iTrader: (17)

As long as he wears those crocs

TRIZ

iTrader: (14)

crocks or gators, real pimps get down on the flo

Rufus

iTrader: (17)

Good girls get down on the flo, so tell how low will muh Andy go.
