Welcome to cropped. a contest that explores the world of beauty shots and their artistry. This competition will obviously focus on beauty shots, meaning all shots will require simple backgrounds and will be shot from at most the waist up.

This is about your unique style, skill, creativity and model beauty. Many can pull off body shots. In most cases they don't require the finesse and attention to detail that the beauty shot does. Because of this, only a choice few have the ability to pull off a captivating beauty shot. Only the truly talented have the ability to be cropped.

Are you one of them?

- This is a[/color] Sims 2 Contest
- Adult females only.
- 8-10 models will be chosen from the applicants to compete.
- All rounds will be beauty shot style: cut at waist or above, simple background.
- Obviously this relies heavily on editing, however all are encouraged to join.
- There will be no eliminations, for the first three rounds leading up to the finale.
- Eliminations for moving on to the finale will be based on a point system.
- 3 Models will be chosen to compete in the finale.
- There will be 4 rounds total.

- Drop outs will not be tolerated. If you feel like you can't commit, please join next time.
- Bad mouthing or disrespecting judges or other members will not be tolerated.
- You are encouraged to question judges about your comments in a respectful way.
- Simmerizing not allowed.
- If you miss the deadline without contacting me, you are eliminated without warning.
- Each contestant is allowed one extension. I think this is fair considering there are only 4 rounds.
- Each extension must be asked for by PM and only lasts 24 hours

Please note that any judge delaying the contest will be replaced without hesitation. If something comes up and you can not judge, please let me know in time so that I can find a replacement. I am looking for TWO judges that can give detailed, helpful critique to our models.
