This looks like one for the children, but thought I would post it in case someone had not seen it. $7500 and some exposure for the winner.

and this is one of the nicer ones for competitions....

However, by entering the Competition, and to the extent allowed by law, entrant grants Google and its affiliates, licensees, promotional partners, developers and third party marketing entities ("Permitted Users") a non-exclusive, perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free license to modify, rearrange, copy, reproduce and adapt the images only to fit the format required for an iGoogle theme, product web pages and marketing materials, and to publish and use the Photographs themselves and the content of and elements embodied in the Photographs, including any names, locations and likenesses, for the duration of the rights, in any and all media, including but not limited to digital and electronic media, computer, and audiovisual media (whether now existing or hereafter devised), specifically for use as an iGoogle theme, in any language, throughout the world, and in any manner, for advertising, promotional, commercial, or any other purposes related to the Google Photography Prize or in iGoogle branded content without further review, notice, approval, consideration, or compensation, provided that after the fifth anniversary of the awarding of the Photography Prize entrant may terminate this agreement with Sponsor by contacting Sponsor in writing, in which event entrant's Photographs and other materials in which entrant has intellectual property rights will no longer be reproduced or used by Permitted Users and will be removed within 30 days after receipt of notice by sponsor, except that Sponsor may continue to use such Photographs and materials in connection with the Photography Prize and the promotion thereof.

I probably wouldn't have a problem with that agreement after getting $7500us for it :)

It's been a long while since anyone put $7500 in my pocket for one picture. I don't like to lose control either, but everything has a price:)

That's true about the $7500 but what if you don't win? It seems to me that just by entering you are giving your image rights away on that particular pic?

Yup... Not just the winner. As this stuff goes this is pretty decent but just make sure it's what you want for your image - regardless of the slim chance of it winning :-)
