Some of you people need a humor detector. It was a joke! Except the part about him winning the contest. That was real.

I heard that Mimi punched his lights out. Maybe it was just a rumor...

Congrats Jody.
I remember that photo from a photo thread quite a while back. Very cool shot compositionally, and the colors...striking.

Yeah, nice one. I have to wonder if Jody is really "Above the Fray," or if the sleeper wave contained within the t&c could still wash over him... hmm. As L said, I could swear I'd seen that photo before. Oh well. ;-l
BTW, $1K shopping spree for a full page print ad, plus all rights in all media in perpetuity blah blah blah... is what we call crap rates, aka: rights grab. Those terms are atrocious. The winner here is Mtn Hardwear. Sorry Jody. I still think your photos are winners though.
Can't believe this stuff. You might as well have just signed over the copyright by merely entering the contest:
"Publicity: Except where prohibited, by participating in the Ad Deadline Contest and regardless of whether you are the winner, you grant Sponsor and its subsidiaries, affiliates, and licensees an exclusive, irrevocable license to use, alter, adapt, edit, publish, distribute, copy, exhibit, display, market, promote, advertise, publicize and/or otherwise exploit your entry, including your name, signature, photographs, likeness, written and other entry materials, as well as additional photographs, video footage or other images that Sponsor may take of you if you are a winner, in whole or in part, in any manner and for whatever purpose Sponsor shall individually elect, in any and all languages, and in any and all media now known or hereinafter developed, including but not limited to, website, television, radio and/or printed materials, worldwide in perpetuity, without further compensation, notification or permission. You shall not claim or be entitled to receive any compensation or credit for such use. If you are a winner, you agree to wear Mountain Hardwear's branded outerwear and apparel as directed by Mountain Hardwear during any trip, photo shoot or filming related to a Prize."
Sheesh.

$8,000-$10,000 is a pretty fair price for full, exclusive rights on an image
Mountain Hardware is getting a good deal
Jody makes nice landscape images

$1K- $8k- $10k- it doesn't really matter if the world is only 6k yrs old and you are perpetually on the edge of your seat waiting for The End of Days... or something like that.
EDIT
hey randy,
i thnk if you've spent enough time in church, you are likely to be experienced enough to know that you should show up w/ your own astroglide!
(ba dum bum!)

That's what I was saying Jerry--I never forget a photo.
Edit: Could probably argue that "published" wording. Also, just because the content's the same, it might not be the exact same photo.
Dirtbag--where are you? We need your expertise on this....:-)

Jody: don't swallow any plastic forks. Believe me.
That's 'bout all I've got. :-(

It's pretty clear: "To qualify, your entry and related materials must: ... Not have been previously published, made publicly available in any manner whatsoever, or submitted in connection with any other contest or promotion."
I'd assume that includes the internet.
Hey, who cares though. I'm happy for Jody that he won.

Jerry - interesting comments. But there is no evidence that his 2 images have been used before.
Clicking on that link to Jody's thread shows a near-identical photo, but it's not the same image.
So technically you (and L) are wrong. Nice try, though...
