Your entry can be anything contains text. It can be calligraphy, picture of used note, interesting-looking sign, or even photograph of text that displayed on screen. Obviously, you should not add text on already existing picture. Rules - One entry per person. - Picture has to be made by yourself and can't be just a reproduction of someone's work. If someone else's work is in the picture, there needs to be something extra. - No manipulation besides basic photo adjustments (contrast, exposure, cropping, color balance, lighting, etc.). - No text or framing in the photo. A signature/watermark is just fine, but it's preferable if you don't have "O Hai Eye Hav3 T3XT" (or something similar) present in the photo. - When voting, please don't select your own image. This will ensure fairness. - You are free to submit an old photo; you don't need to take a new one just for this competition. - Winner hosts the next contest.

Posted June 22, 2018 (edited) Sign in rest stop along I-40 in Arkansas. Made me grin. Have they really had a problem with this? Spoiler Edited June 22, 2018 by purplehaze Share this post Link to post
Posted June 22, 2018 Took this photo on my second visit to Tempe, Arizona. Everywhere else, this would say "speed bumps". This one made me think of multiplying bunnies. Yes, I have a dirty mind. Share this post Link to post
Posted June 22, 2018 "High Water Marks" It's located in the Great Falls Park next to Potomac River in Virginia. Share this post Link to post
Posted June 24, 2018 (edited) Spoiler This graffiti was round the back of a building I used to pass on occasion and it always made me chuckle (it was indeed the darker side ). If the number plate on the car looks odd, that's because I've covered over it. Edited June 24, 2018 by Alectrona Share this post Link to post
Posted June 27, 2018 (edited) The “Titanic” sign outside of the Titanic Museum in Belfast, Ireland. I believe the piece of metal actually came from the ship wreck itself. Edited June 27, 2018 by Sunlexor Share this post Link to post
Posted June 28, 2018 (edited) Sign at the entry to a corn maze in Florida: Edited August 3, 2020 by Lagie Share this post Link to post
Posted June 30, 2018 (edited) Tough choice indeed! @Naraku your picture reminds me of the C & O Canal Park. (DUH - now that I see you had it captioned, it is exactly where I thought it was!) Edited July 7, 2018 by purplehaze Share this post Link to post
Posted July 4, 2018 (edited) Just voted, tough choice! I had to go with the corn maze though. Good luck to everyone ❤️😃 Edited July 4, 2018 by Sunlexor Share this post Link to post
Posted July 8, 2018 (edited) I was kinda wondering that I should need tiebreaker poll, but it didn't. It was quite close! Congrats, @GhostMouse! You're a winner! Edited July 8, 2018 by sh20000sh Share this post Link to post
Posted July 8, 2018 Oh wow! Thanks!!! It was so close there at the end. I'll have the next one up in a day or two. Share this post Link to post
