Ladies and gentlemen, children of all ages, I give you the First Annual That Costume Girl Halloween Costume Contest. Whew, that’s a mouthful.

Send in your pictures of your Halloween costumes. All costumes are welcome (so long as they’re not obscene). All ages can submit their costume for the contest. There will be four brackets in which to compete.
Child: infant-10 years
Teen: 11-18 years
Adult: 19 and older
Group: 2 or more in themed costumes
The rules are simple: send in a picture of your Halloween costume. Costumes can be hand-crafted or store bought. I do not discriminate. A costume only becomes great when worn by the right person. Picture dimensions should be between 800×600 and 300×225 and in JPEG format. Email the pictures to ThatCostumeGirl@gmail.com. Include your name or screen name and your age in your email. Feel free to describe your costume, write a tutorial, or tell about your Halloween adventure. All pictures will be added to the Your Pictures Gallery and may be used in a post. The deadline for submissions is November 7, 2008. The winning entries will be announced November 10th right here in a post.
I may ask for opinions from friends and family, but the final selection of the four winners will be mine. Yes, there will be prizes.
Small blog-level prizes, but prizes none-the-less.
I give you fair warning to get your camera out on October 31st. I can’t wait to see what you wear!
