  • Wanna Be on the August Cover of the AC?

    Hope You Are Having a Great Weekend!

    It is time to start our search for the next cover. So, the question is, do you wanna be on the August 2017 Cover of the Authentic Campaigner? Please submit your image in this thread.

    We are looking for images that best-exemplify the look of the authentic living historian. Images taken with period technology only are required (wet plate, pencil drawing, field sketches, etc.) Images that have previously been on the cover are not eligible.

    SUBMISSION GUIDELINES:

    1) We will accept the first ten image submissions in this thread only. Posts on social media will not be accepted. The thread will be closed after the tenth image is submitted, and any images submitted after the tenth will be deleted from the thread.

    2) Once we have ten images, the staff will select the final three. The final three will then be put up for a general vote to the membership of the forum. The winning image will be placed on the front "cover" of the web site for one month.

    3) Make sure and attach the photo to your post. If necessary, we will crop the photo for the best fit.

    4) The Moderators/Administrators reserve the right to remove any submissions that they feel don't meet the standards of the Authentic Campaigner.

    Now, let's see your best images!

                        Is it allowed to enter a photo in different months if it is not selected as the winner or is it "one and done?"

                          Michael, if it didn't get on the cover, it can be re-submitted.
