Vote for my picture!

Post by SOonthebeach »

Hey guys! I have some exciting news. I submitted a photograph to a contest for Starwood owners (we own at the Westin). Thanks to the other forumite photo contest winners that urged the rest of us to submit!!

Out of about 1,500-1,700 pictures submitted, mine was selected as one of the top 10! Very cool. The girls even threw me a little party yesterday- so cute.

Now voting is open to the general public. Starting today through August 22nd, you can vote once per day from each device that you own (ie desktop computer, laptop, iPhone, iPad, whatever). I would love it if you vote for mine if you like it! You can also forward this to anyone- the more the better! No registering- it's just a few clicks to vote.

Here is the link: http://www.starwoodvillas.com/?page_id=8342

You can also go to www.playpauserepeat.com . On the top of the page is the photo contest banner. You can click where it says “top 10 finalists selected- vote for your favorite”. I am picture #1- it is my 2 girls skipping on White Bay on JVD. Here's the picture:

I am so excited that I got selected for top 10- would love it if you would support me and vote every day if you like it- thanks so much!

It should- voting is open to the general public. Were you able to click the bubble below the picture? The minute you click the bubble it will say thank you for voting an will not allow you to vote again for 24 hours from the same device.

I am checking the links to make sure they are right. Thanks for trying! Will post again with what I find out.

Thanks guys! I think I have figured it out. I think the website is having some loading issues for some of you. Most people are getting through but some are not. I'm sure all the top 10 finalists have asked all their friends and family to vote and I bet it is overloading the system :wink:

Please keep trying!! Thanks again!

I just voted, too. GREAT picture, so cute. (I honestly think it's the best one, too!)

For people having trouble the voting, I had to turn the compatitbility mode on with Internet Explorer 8 and it worked just fine. Didn't let me see the radio buttons before I switched it to compatibility.

Good luck!

Thanks guys! Citapita- thanks for the tech tip- you are way more advanced than me ;-)

Bert- I SO wish it were a few nights at the Westin STJ! The winner gets a vacay at the Westin Lagunamar in Cancun. Not STJ, but still looks good- I'll take it! 2nd and 3rd runners up get a maintenance fee reduction and Starwood points- I'd take that, too!

Just really fun to even be in the running- I love photography and it's really exciting to be recognized for a picture I took. I sure do appreciate all the support!
