How to Submit a Photo

Submitting a photo is easy!

1. Select your best photograph of your favorite furry friend, and email it to photos@bellport.com. For this photo contest, we are limiting everyone to one photo submission per person.

2. With your photo please include:
- Your name
- Your pet's name
- Type of pet
- Your city/town
- A sentence or two telling us about your pet

There is no need to resize your images before you send them to us. Please submit your photos in as large a pixel size as possible.

A word about copyright: By sending us your photographs, you are in no way giving us any rights to do anything with your photographs other than to display them here on Bellport.com. We will not give anyone else any rights to your photographs nor will we use them in any other way without your permission.

However, you should understand that the internet, relatively speaking, is still the "Wild West" when it comes to maintaining control over your work. We've already had several instances of people copying material from Bellport.com and using it on their own websites. They removed the material when we politely pointed out to them that they can't do that, but the point is that you have to keep an eye out for abuses of the copyright rules. For this reason, Bellport.com can not be responsible for what other people do and how they use material they copy without permission from Bellport.com.

You should only submit photos if you understand and agree to the above. If you have any questions about any of this, we'd be glad to discuss them with you.
