You’re only 5 steps away from winning a Spinner 360° - Here’s what you’ve got to do!
Step One – Geotag over 50% of your Photos
We aren’t doing anything in less than half measures in this Rumble. But don’t worry, Geotagging is easy. And it’s a cool way to explore all the best locations in your area (or any area) using our Nearby Map .
To make things easier, we’ve put an indicator in the ‘You’ section of your LomoHome which tells you exactly what percentage of your photos are currently Geotagged.
Q. How do I Geotag my photos?
A. All you need to do is…
• Login
• Upload your photo in the Lab as usual
• Click ‘Put on Map’ in the Photos section
• Type in or manually click the location of your photo
• Click ‘Save Position’

Step Two – Submit 3 Locations in the next 3 weeks
That’s just 1 location a week. So get thinking about where you’ve been with your camera recently and submit some location articles! The deadline for submissions is 14th February.
Please note: Location submissions must be in English
And don’t forget, you get 5 Piggy Points for each accepted Location you submit – So, if each of your 3 Locations get published (which they should do if you’ve followed our Submission Guidelines ), you’ve already bagged yourself 15 Piggy Points. Not too shabby for a little work!
Also, if you happen to submit one of our requested locations for the appropriate month, you’ll get 10 Piggies instead of 5! View our current requested locations here
Q. How do I submit a Location?
A. You can submit a location article here .
Basic Requirements for each location submission:
• At least 5 Photos
• 40 word / 3 line minimum summary
• 75 word minimum main content
• 5 descriptive tags
Read the full Location submission guidelines .

Step Three – Share your Location in your LomoHome
This is the easiest step of them all. Just share your Country and City with the rest of the Lomography community. So if you’re in Reykjavik, Iceland, say so!
Q. How do I add my location to my LomoHome?
A. If you haven’t already shared your location on your LomoHome, don’t worry, you can complete this part of the Rumble in a few seconds! Here’s how you do it:
• Login
• Click on ‘You’ in the Homes section
• Click ‘Edit’
• Select your Country from the drop-down menu and click ‘Show on my Home’
• Select your City from the drop-down menu and click ‘Show on my Home’

Step Four – Add a link to your LomoHome in the comments section of this page
Step Five – One randomly selected winner will get the Spinner 360°!
We’re spinning the roulette wheel to decide the winner of this rumble. Don’t forget, you’ve got 3 weeks to complete the mission – the deadline for submissions is 14th February. So go on and spin your way to success!

Folks, shouldn't you be writing 3 lomolocations and THEN put your lomohome here? Why would LSI folks look at you home already if you haven't wrote the articles yet? Isn't that a waste of time?
Step Two – Submit 3 Locations in the NEXT 3 weeks

Hello all!
Just to clarify, in Step 2 of the rumble we are looking for 3 NEW LOCATIONS from you in the next 3 weeks. Please submit all locations to the International site and we are sorry but translations of existing locations do not count.
@darryll208 – You should get notification within 24 hours of submitting if your Location is not accepted.
@littlekoala – Please only submit your locations to the International site. Sorry Locations you already have had published are not valid – But you’ve got plenty of time to submit 3 new locations to us!
@basho – No, sorry translations of Locations don’t count – We are looking for 3 new location articles from you!
It’s great to see so many submissions already, just remember these rules:
(1) In your Home it must show up that you have over 50% of your photos geotagged
(2) Submit 3 new location articles to us in the next 3 weeks
(3) Share your location (city and country) in your Home
Hope that clears things up for everybody! Let us know if you have any more questions!
tomas_bates
Also, for the duration of this rumble, 5 photos for each Location submission is enough (on the submission guidelines it says we want 10 minimum) - Sorry if this has caused any confusion!

@gaabi – Thanks for the question- Sorry the locations must be submitted in English…but you can always translate the article(s) to Spanish later and earn some extra Piggies!
@saidseni –Either way is fine! We will obviously check LomoHomes at the end of the rumble to make sure people have done steps (1)-(3) properly – you can post your LomoHome here now and submit the locations over the next 3 weeks!
@amirulshahrom – I’m afraid only Locations submitted after the Rumble start date count – But you’ve still got plenty of time to submit new ones!
@fivedayforecast – Yes just 3 in the next 3 weeks is fine, doesn’t have to be one a week…you can submit them all today if you want :-)

I sent in three locations; one about two weeks ago (I received an email for that one), one about a week a go (no email notification, which is why I sent it in again on Friday and today) and another one today. So what shall we do if we don't recive email notifications? Does that mean that something's missing? Or that something's wrong? Or should we just sent it in again?

I also meant to say my first is published my second was sent in the other day but i still haven't got confirmation and that was well over 24 hours, my third has just gone in but I could really do with the piggies for the 1st as I only have five days left before they die!!!

Sorry about the late location submissions! Have been so busy that I almost missed this rumble.

Would love to win a spinner! Good luck everybody!

Do the lomolocation articles need to be published? I am concerned there won't be enough time for review of them prior to the end of competition. I followed the guidelines (stuffed up my 1st submission as I did it when I was half asleep, but I resubmitted it, sorry about that) Will those who submitted locations that haven't been published yet still be in the draw?
tomas_bates
@artpunk - no the locations dont need to be published, we just need 3 submissions for you to be entered into the draw :-)
blue-dog
I did 2 submissions late Saturday night and not sure if they got there ok..sent notes but no return notes. So re-did a few hours ago and sent in again..Lots-O-Work.. so should be good to go..Best of luck.

LOL, I had submitted 3 locations yesterday, which I am pretty sure were submitted within the guidelines, but I just submitted another one about 5 minutes before the deadline (just to be sure!)
Sorry for the extra work tomas, I hope you have some helpers when you review the lomolocation submissions! Taking part in this rumble has made me realise how much I enjoy sharing my experiences and photos with others. Not only that, but it also reminds me of how fortunate I have been to have visited some truly beautiful locations. Thanks!
