It was my understanding that the objective of this competition was for fans of the show to create a poster using a specific picture. What stunned me as one of the entries that one did NOT use the picture. That's totally unfair for this person to have been allowed to enter the competition and even win. While the person did make a good picture, she did not follow the rules. I believe that she should have been automatically disqualified.

As I said, it was completely unfair to all the other competitors who made worthwhile attempts to use a challenging photograph and do something creative. i am disappointed in Forum32 for not abiding by their own rules. It really takes away credibility of a competition and sets a poor standard.

I want to qualify this post with - I did not participate nor do I know of anyone who did.

You talking about the top poster that was made by Zara? She is actually using the image! If you look at it more closely, the picture of Zoya is from the original picture, it's only Asad that's different. It's excellent editing that makes you think she's not using the picture :)

Aren't you supposed to use the whole picture? She used half of it.

even i hav the same doubts from the very beginning. actually i just read the rules & made the poster with only tat two pics. i was scared 2 use other pics though there were many awesome asya pics which i liked. when i saw other pics entries i thot they wont qualified or else the admin may change the rule of it. but then i assumed we can use other pics too. thot 2 make other siggie with other pics but couldnt make as my board exams were going on & i hav made those posters b/w my accountancy exams...
anyway they made me happy with kabhi interview...but still confused about it & just 4get it...or wat else i could? but still i would make my poster more beautiful if i knew tat ,...

j6p, perhaps no-one noticed or no-one wanted to bring it to attention? How do you know no-one has a problem with it? Did you do a survey and find out???

@Laila2009, interesting point... Technically you didn't have to use the entire picture... You just had to use the picture in some way... Also, I feel the other winner, Meher, had an additional picture from Asad and Zoya hugging scene which shoud not be allowed... And one more thing, I think you should mst ad ask ths in the Forum 32 website itself as I don't think tat they will easily notice it in IF.. Forum 32 is the bet way to get messages to them.., you make a valid point so I think you should get an answer to it...

They definitely did use the pictures given for contest.I believe they were given two pics one zoya with her finger on asad's mouth and one where they were just standing next to each other in the same costumes.Its my understanding that these two pictures being the core participant's are allowed to take liberties to add effects to it. It's quite creative what they came up with without actually missing the core challenge of the competition. It's just the way they interpreted it.

I notcied it too...but may be they didnt get enough entries that used the whole picture so they changed the rules and accepted whatever entries they got!
