Winners of Panoramio Contest of July and August 2008
October 6th, 2008 by Eduardo Manchón
We can finally announce the winners of the Panoramio contest of July and also the winners of August. ATP, the sponsor of the contest will contact the winners during the next days in order to send the prizes. Congratulations!
We have automatized the process to select winners, that’s why it took us some extra time. The winners of the September contest (that are being voted on in October) will be announced during the first days of November.
As we mention in the rules of the contest, after winning a prize you can’t win another prize in a later contest. However some few users that already got a price are submitting their photos again using several different usernames, this behavior is not allowed and can lead to account deletion.

Dear Eduardo,
the photo http://www.panoramio.com/photo/13095819 made by KseniaKasandra
was accredited and published as the 2nd prize winner of August.
I see that after some days of our congratulations the photo takes a place between “honorable” .
What is going on???? I think it is not so elegant to exchange the winners after the result announcement …
Yours sincerely, Janina
Janina,
Unfortunately the page of the prizes was available when still was under development and not counting votes properly. That’s why you got your photo there despite it didn’t get enough votes for a prize. sorry for that.
The official announcement of the prizes was made in the blog some days later on October 6th when everything was working Ok.
Eduardo
What is wrong with people? Not content in winning, they are trying to break the rules and the spirit of the competition by entering again. Greed is a sin. I hope that they really will lose their account! Maybe it will teach them a lesson. But I doubt it! Sadly
Qué feo… ¬¬
There is a little confusion among my PAN-pals about the geotagging contest: Is it true that if someone has won once either 1st, 2nd or 3rd place, they can’t win again?
Or can they be announced/listed as winners as many times as they get enough votes - only not receive any more gifts from ATP?
You use the word “PRIZE” both for the actual gifts and for the placements, too, and it is confusing. If you could clarify this we would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks, Barbara
