We took a few days to update the software that hosts the NickerTown photo contest and plan on doing a few more updates as the software adds more functionality. Another update will happen over the next few days (minor bug fixes) and then a major update in the June time frame.
Anyways, all that to say that the judging has been a little delayed, but we expect to have the finalists selected today and will turn on the voting as soon as the finalists are selected.
Talk to you soon!
Last week we picked up what will be the prize for the photo selected as "Photo of the Year" for the NickerTown photo contest. We're going to give away a Dell Laptop computer...
You might remember that we asked about this some time ago and based on your feedback, the laptop was purchased. Well, here is your chance at collecting the nicest prize we’ve had to date. To be eligible to win the Dell Laptop computer, all you have to do is enter your photos into the NickerTown photo contest. The photo selected as the “Photo of the Year” will be awarded the prize.
We hope you enjoy the news and we look forward to seeing your photos.
Thanks,
The NickerTown Staff

We’ve decided to make a change in the Photo Contest. We want to give you a chance to participate in the selection of the Grand Prize Winner for the photo contest each month. This change is happening immediately and NOW is your first chance to pick the winner. Each month, our in-house judges will select the finalists for the photo contest and we’ll then put them out to hear your selection for the Grand Prize winner.
Here are the finalists for February 2011

The Grand Prize winner for the December 2010 NickerTown photo contest has been chosen and announced. The photo “Running Bear” was submitted by Kirsten Brandenburg and shared some info about her photo below:
“My photo was taken during the first major snow storm of this winter. Most of the horses stayed in their run-in to escape the weather, but Running Bear chose to come out to the fence for a visit.”
For winning, Kirsten received a $25 gift card from Amazon. Congratulations Kirsten!
