I see someone named Christopher Wilson has stolen one of my images and joined the contest with it.  :rant:

What an idiot.  :facepalm:

it's possible they already removed the pic/entry. Pic #43 is not Christopher Wilson and none around #43 is, either.

Because of new entries it's now no114.

My entry still isn't listed?! Wtf?

That's some BS about someone stealing pics. That's pretty freaking low. I hope victorinox  will disqualify them.

No, as the thing of Chako shows, not really!  :facepalm:
Such a damn shame. How stupid and dishonest must be one ...  :rant:
Hope the gets a bill for it.  :megaslap:

But what annoys me, rarely seen so many beautiful photos of collections!  :2tu:

Yes, I emailed Victorinox last night but haven't gotten a reply yet. I should be used to having my photos stolen. This isn't the first, and I would wager, not the last time this will happen. I think this one hurts a little more because this is a contest. I would not want a liar to remotely have a chance to win.

EDIT: I would like to add I wasn't going to join until I saw that photo. I posted a similar photo in hopes that the folks running the contest will question both of us.

Christopher Wilson you are pretty disgusting and pretty stupid also.

Sorry this happened Chaks - Of course plaigairism is a complement - even if it is frustrating - But stealing, lying and deception is totally wrong, especially in this case.
And he will be outed! And won't have a leg to stand on.

Although I do think that this is a great idea from Vic !!

Overall for 1-43 I am amazed how poor some of the entries are from many angles:
- The pic quality
- The lighting
- The SAK layouts
- The SAK selections
Your average photo on MTo is way better than most of those  :salute:

Although there are some nice stories and real enthusiasts taking part
Wonder if I should enter
I am not in the same league as many of us here !

In my view, its not a foto-shooting contest! Angle, light, composition dont matter for me. Its about the story, not the quality of the picture.

I hope that not a super high quality magazine story/picture wins.

Hope to see some pictures in the style of old man repairing and cleaning old rusted saks in his cellar while his wife is always complaining in the back...

I re-entered my pic and it STILL didn't show!?

Why am I actualy putting energy in, Vic? :rant:

Last time I didn't get any reply from custumer service, this time my pic isn't posted... TWICE...
Getting quite double feelings with Vic lately.

I know, the world doesn't revolve around me, but how hard can it be to send an email? Or to give everyone a fair shot at a prize?

:serverloft: you!

Is there already a decision made by the jury?
How is it going to be published?

Chako,

Sorry to hear someone ripped off your photo. Hope he gets a fair amount of grief for it.

True Ulli - Although it would be nice to get both - Great pics and great stories - Like JBs for example !!
There are plenty of both there now !

You know there was at least one entry like you request ! Did y'all see it ? About the guy who got chucked out of the bedroom to go and sleep in the SAKroom.
It comes up in the 'most shared' list!!
Hilarious if true !!
Also really disappointed to see Christopher Wilson's entry is still there with Chako's photo -  :twak: Also in most shared !!

Can't find the contest entries in the site. Not user-friendly at all...

Still, I found this:
