Ya know, if you guys submit too much of this stuff, you will probably just **** the Jones people off, and they wont take ANY of the NS submissions. Ever think of that?
Look at the 'gallery' of labels chosen. They only roll about 24/month, so chances are, you'll see the Onos.
EDIT: And why the hell did you choose the Onos? A gorgie would've been so much cuter (Prolly would've been cute enough to get '10' from those that don't even know what NS is <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->)
on the "cute" note, why didn't we submit the "cute" pics that were gift icons instead of the real thing? Maybe we can do that if this one wins? We submit a cute one next?
If this makes it on a bottle where can i get some Onos soda?
It better be in a flavor i like! <!--emo&::onos::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tiny.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tiny.gif'><!--endemo-->
Heh, Onos is owning the rest. This is quite comical <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
Well, I voted 10 on Onos and 1 on everything else on the first page several times, I think onos is gonna win <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
Ok apparently winning the public voteing doesn't guarentee it will be on a bottle, but it does help it's standing... Here's how they judge photos:
NOTES FOR ALL PHOTO SUBMISSIONS:
We go through all the photos that are submitted by mail or the online gallery choose photos based on the following. If you have any questions, make sure you read the Photo FAQ/Help files
Photos that are technically superb: in focus, clear sharp, detailed, crisp black and white or crisp colors Submissions that include photo release form. Photos should be at least 20% wider than tall (Eg. 6"wide X 4"tall). Minimum photo sizes are 2.25" X 1.875" Photos that fit the unique "Jones attitude" (see a selection on existing labels). If you are submitting photos left and right and are not getting picked,think about your subject, we have all seen dogs, cats and children and while cute we are looking for something different in most cases. Think less animal more funky and unexpected! Photos submitted to the gallery that have a "Staff Pick" have a very good chance of being picked for a label (if they meet minimum technical requirements). See previously chosen photos label galleries.
So we win in 2 ways,
1: Winning the voteing
2: "Funky and unexpected"
I think we have a good shot <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> keep those votes comeing!
anyone notice how all the most popular jones label submissions are horses and how close onos resembles a horse? sort by most popular and check it out. onos ahead of the pack by about 2. onos 8.5, the rest < 6.5. oh wait thats cause its in the animal category lol

Onos is like 8.5 now, the next least favorite pic its like 6.5, even though its the <b>most popular</b> Animal Other pic, I doubt they'll let it be a label. I mean look at it, its veiny, horned and freakin' scary.

Unfortunately, it doesn't appear in the Staff Picks for Animals-Other.
EDIT: Oh, and here's the date of the most recent Staff Pick... November 24, 2002...
I also voted 1 for a few others
VOTE 10
BTW, I find voting other people's pics down just simply dishonest and wrong. For shame.
I have a friend who submitted a picture of him yelling through a bullhorn up there...never did find out if he won or not...
No. Don't post it here. Then they would have proof of us (collectively) being evil and might disqualify the Onos.
