Foal Trail Companion
Contest Journals
Deadline: June 30, 2013, Midnight US Central Time
Class: Summer Fun (Viewer's choice photo contest)
Restrictions: Foals (Must be younger than one year)

Welcome to the annual Summer Splash contest held by foalS!

Little kids have the cutest swim gear, from little floaties, life rings, and snorkels, to goggles fashioned after a cartoon character, so we want to see your foals all dolled up and playing in water! Get as creative as you would like, the cuter the better!

Rather than specify a location where the show is going to be held contestants will send in a photo of their dressed-up foal taken at a water source of their choosing, be it a pond, pool, lake, or maybe even an ocean!

The judging will be completely viewer's choice. After the deadline I will set up a poll with the entries for all to vote on and after two days time I will close the poll to announce winners.

Enter with as many foals as you would like! Group shots are fine, as are collabs should you wish to team up with another stable and hold a playdate, just be sure to say who did what.

You may add other horses, like the dam or just another stable horse, but it will only be foals that are judged and can place.


Entries should be submitted to the foalS Showing folder in the gallery

About FoalS

What is FoalS?


Foal Showing, The place to show off your new bundle of joy!
This group was created in the hopes of giving the foals a more prominent place amongst the virtual stables, HARPG or otherwise. Everyone loves to see the awkward little fuzzballs but it can be hard to find places to feature them. This group is dedicated to creating opportunities for your foals from fun competitions to user hosted contests.

Things to Know



:bulletblue:What do I have to do to join?
Simply have a virtual stable and you're in! Join requests are automatically approved!

:bulletgreen: What do I have to do to become a Contributor?
Contributors are those active in the group. As of right now there aren't any set guidelines other than you must be willing to host a foal show at least once a year.

:bulletblue: Where do I submit my images?
There is a folder for the different types of activities you will see around FoalS. There is a folder for "Everyday Images" of your foal being a foal. There will be a folder for training images. There will be a folder for the fun contests. There will be a folder for several of the foal disciplines that we plan on holding competitions in. We do ask that your reference sheets be placed in the Favorites section, though. Our goal is not to collect references but to show off your foals beyond that.

:bulletgreen: What is the Featured folder for?
The Featured folder will be a place for the winners to get showcased. For shows and contests with a small number of entries only the first place will be moved to the Featured folder. For the larger shows the first three images will be moved to Featured. Occasionally when a certain image that comes up is found by one of the Admins it will also be moved to the Featured folder- incredible works deserve recognition!

:bulletblue: Can I host a show/will you feature my shows?
The answer to both is yes! Now that DA allows journals to be treated like standard deviations we can create a place just for you to submit those show journals! There will also be a Blog entry that will link to the journals. If you would like to hold a FoalS sponsored show, send a Note to the group with your ideas and the admins will take a vote to determine if it is appropriate for the Group!

:bulletgreen: Is there any special type of horse you want to see, or is there any type of foal you don't want to see in the group?
As long as it is a young equine it is welcome here! From your natural warmbloods, Akhal-Tekes, drafts, or ponies to those that glow, channel demonic spirits, or have hints of other creatures mixed in, it's welcome!

Any other questions? Note us, comment on the page, or come to one of the Admins for help- we won't bite!

Do you accept artwork from people who aren't members?

I don't think that is an option for DA groups.

It can be - submitting for non members can be toggled on/off in the group settings, but many groups choose to keep it off so that only members can submit :)

Hi there, the TB Society is hosting a show that has a TB foal (and cross foal) halter.[link] Because it's a group blog and not an account's, I can't put it into the gallery. do you have a blog to post links?

We don't currently, since we have the gallery folder. I tried adding it to the group myself to see if that made a difference, but it didn't. Sorry ^^;
