IMMINENT! The Picture Perfect Highlight Reel

Screen Shot 2013-03-17 at 8.03.18 PMThis week our Giant Squids pulled out their cameras created some magic. These “Picture Perfect” lenses revolve around photosfrom their own personal collection or new photos they took for this challenge.

So not only have we awarded 15 lensmasters a raffle ticket this week, we also gave more than 50 IMMINENT! lenses a +20% turbo boost. The best (and fastest) way to move up the ranks is to create unique, valuable and (0f course) quality content.

Way to go Giants!

Only Giant Squids get to participate in the IMMINENT! challenges. Not a Giant Squidyet? Don’t miss out on the fun…check out the Giant Squid program right here.

    fantastic choice of lenses! so sorry I was too pushed for time with the day job to manage this one. one little comment though – the quality of .jpeg images on squidoo is pretty poor these days. i’ve started using .png files to remedy this…has anybody else noticed this problem? there seems to be too much compression going on…

    • http://www.squidoo.com/lensmasters/SerraBlogs SerraBlogs

      Yes, using .png files helps keep the sharp quality of the images. I’m not sure what the reason is, but the .jpeg issue has been present for months.
