The Flagship Theme for March 2014 is called 1-Sailing Wait
-------------------
Here is what what means:
- Photo must be of the vehicle marshaling area at a ferry terminal
- That marshaling area must be at least 75% full. It doesn't have to be completely full, but it should convey the impression of a possible wait
- Any ferry terminal in the world is eligible
- You do not have to include a ferry in the photo, although that would be a nice bonus
-------------------
The nominations guidelines:
- Regular banner size dimensions
- Make sure that your full size links work properly
- Number of nominations per person: 3
-------------------
As of this Flagship, new rules regarding the placement of text in your photos are now in effect. Please read this:
- Adding text to a flagship photo is completely optional and at the discretion of the contributor.
- Text should be used to enhance your photo, and should not be the first thing the user sees. The less text, the better.
- Text that may be included, if the user feels inclined: Name of ferry, Copyright information, Location information (only if not obvious from photo)
- Text that should not be included: Dates, Location information (if obvious), Other information seen as irrelevant
- Text should be written in white, using a simple, easy-to-read font. If the background is light, or white is otherwise not legible, please use black
- Proper spaces and sizing for text on the image:
Any of the four corners (copyright information should go on the bottom). Here is an example (text should roughly stay outside of the brown areas):
-------------------
The deadline:
- Nominations deadline is 5:00pm on Thursday February 27, 2014
- Voting will be from evening of February 27 until the evening of February 28
