Each BoldBrush Contest entry offers the following:
- Link back to the artist's website
- BoldBrush Artful Alerts button (formerly Get New Art Alerts)
- Follow button
- Vote button
- Facebook Like button
The Facebook Like button is not a vote.
See this FAQ: Facebook 'Likes' Are Not a Vote
Clicking on the Like button adds the image and link for that entry to the visitor's Facebook wall under Recent Activity (left column).
|
Neither the Vote Button or the FB Like button have any effect on who actually wins in the competition. Winners are selected by a judge. |
The Vote button and the Facebook Like buttons are just for fun. They both provide additional exposure by
(1) displaying your entry in the Most Popular grouping and
(2) sharing your entry on friends' Facebook pages.
Invite your friends to visit the BoldBrush Contest site and Vote for your painting! Share the entry's url with them. To obtain the url of your entry:
