I am making a second contest. But this month's contest is a bit different.
Now we have two themes (+and a bonus theme).
Theme 1: Take a photo about love. (What is love, what resembles love for you, what makes you to love and why we love?)
Theme 2: Take a photo about hate. (What is hate, what resembles hate for you, what makes you to hate or why we hate?)
Theme 3: Take a B&W photo (pictures can be made B&W with any picture editor - Photoshop, Paint.NET, Gimp, etc...)

You can enter the contest with only Theme 1, or only Theme 2, or both Theme 1 and 2 as separate pictures. You can put any number of pictures as you want. There will be two winners, one for the Theme 1 contestant, and one for the Theme 2 contestant.
Theme 3 will be bonus category.

Rules are same with the previous contest.

Rules (important):
1- These pictures must look like a real photograph and without the game interface, chat panel or any similar panel.
2- This is not a screenshot contest, so "hey look at my high score" or "phear mai l33t skillz" type of screenshots will not be counted as a photograph.
3- You can use minimal photo editing, like contrast, sharpness, hue, brightness adjustment, but please no photo montages.
4- Suitable photography forms and techniques will be accepted, aerial, architectural, cloudscape, landscape, street, wildlife photography etc... Treat the contest as an art contest, so you don't have to do things like photojournalism, documentary photography.
5- Don't cheat. If you put a picture that doesn't belong to you and this is detected, your picture will be out of contest. Take new pictures for this contest.

Prizes:
Love entry winner: Maximum $20 (19.99) amount of games from Steam or GOG
Hate entry winner: Maximum $20 (19.99) amount of games from Steam or GOG.
B&W entry winnter: Maximum $6 (5.99) amount of games from Steam or GOG.

Winners will be chosen at the end of June (1 July).

PS: Baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me, no more

Love and hate are human emotions, so I'm not in. ;)

But thanks and +1 for your generosity, muratogut! Haddaway. ;)

My two cents: Howard Jones - "What is Love"

I am so tempted to go looking for a copy of The Sims, to be able to enter both giveaways with a single screenshot. Not sure if I want to go in all the trouble of properly setting up the relations and the timing though...

+1 and looking forwards to the entries.

Edit: We are also linking music videos? Yay!

Quite a few "Night at the Roxbury" vibes from this one.

Thank you for the giveaway!

The first picture is about love. Or desire - who can always tell the difference? As a bonus it's from a game I love. And yes, it is a picture from the game, even if it's a cut-scene. I
And for the case that this is considered cheating, I also attach the reverse. I.e. a scene in the game's graphics engine, but not actually from the unmodded game.

As for hate: the third picture is not a scene about hate per-se. But the character on the right is so much hate-inspiring, that she is a kind of avatar of hatedom.

This should answer your question. ;)

Thanks for doing another edition of your giveaway!
I´ll try to create a real good entry, but I´m not ready yet ;)

One question: How will a pic be counted that solves both themes?

You love the GEMA blocking Youtube? That's all I see here in Germany.

If that picture is the best one in love category, it will be the winner in love;
Else If that picture is the best one in hate category, it will the winner in hate;

Oh yes:
Germany---our country?!
No! The country of some shitty, shitty organisations!

If I win that Seduce me game, I'll post a lot of love pictures here... hehe... ;p

Seems simple and logical. Thanks!

So I guess my random mood pictures of Skyrim landscapes and caves are out of the equation then :)

Well, good luck to all - it will be interesting to see what people come up with.

Nice to see another contest like this, however, I'm not sure yet if I'm going to enter or not as I don't think I own any game which I could use for these themes. Anyway, I will still keep an eye on the thread.

Just took some screens from Wolfram.

Sorry for the jpeg :(

Edit: BTW, this is for Theme 2...if that wasn't obvious :|
