Hi Farmers!

This month's theme is "Halloween", so post here your fabulous farms and get the chance to win some Farm Cash!!

We are looking for designs that scream Halloween! You may want to show us the best use of the halloween decorations or you may want to design a scene from a halloween film or show us what your street does on halloween or what you do at your own homes. Show us spooky, scary, haunted attractions, pranks, trick or treating, carved pumpkins or anything else you can think of related to Halloween. The choice is yours and have a great time doing it. We are looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

Halloween must be the main focus of your design and not just a small portion of your farm.

Contest Guidelines:

We are looking for a whole decorated Halloween farm, please dont decorate only a part of your farm.
You can use any items from the Store, Gifts or your Storage.
You can choose between a "picture farm" or a traditional design.
Only for this month competition, we are allowing wasted crops. Just to clarify, if your farm photo is showing up wasted crops, they have to be present as wasted on your farm when the judges visit your farm. If crops are showing up as Ready to harvest, then they have to be present in the same way or "growing" when the judges visit your farm. This also applies to trees and flowers.

Contest Rules:

You have to be a member of the Forum.
Your farm can be any size.
Your entry needs to be a picture of your farm. Do not post a picture on behalf of someone else.
One farm entry per contestant. Do not start another forum account to enter another farm.
Be sure you are entering the correct farm and picture for your entry as you may not change your mind once entered. You cant add/delete any items on your farms once you posted your photo into the contest. NOTICE: If new items are released AFTER you have entered you are not allowed to make additions to your entry, so please be sure you are done.

Links to help you:

How do I post a picture for the Contest? Please remember, you must use the Small size while taking your photo as the Regular and Large sizes are too big for the forum. If you choose the wrong size, then we will delete your post and will send you a private message asking you to take a new photo using the right size. NOTICE: Your farm photo MUST be set to Public and remain that way till the winners are announced or we will not be able to help you if your entry needs fixing. To set the photo to Public, please open your Farm town album, and click in your photo. You will see the photo and on the right you will see your name and the date, besides the date you can see who are able to see that photo. Click there and set it to Public.
ALSO, remember to remove the check mark if you have set that farm as PRIVATE, so we can visit it.

Linking your farm to the Forum Please remember we need the link to the farm you are entering.
