As mentioned on our forums a few weeks ago here at CastleTV.net we’ve been thinking about an artwork competition to help promote season 2 of Castle… This competition is now open!

http://castletv.net/forums/get-creative/castletvnet-artwork-competition-entries you must register to be able to post in this section of the forum. - Maximum of 3 entries per person.
- One entry will win the prize, a Castle cast photograph personally signed by Nathan Fillion.
- Winning entries will be posted to the CastleTV.net website. Other prizes may be allocated at the discretion of CastleTV.net.
- All entries will be posted on our forums at the completion of the competition where people will be free to repost them to forums, blogs etc (remember, the idea of this competition is to promote Castle)

Note: Sorry about the quality of this photograph of the photo, I will replace it soon, but you get the idea. The actual photo is clear and not overexposed as this image would have you believe.
Some ideas include banners people can use to post on forums etc. Videos that can be posted to youtube and linked on forums, blogs etc. Icons that people can use on facebook, myspace, blogs etc. Hand drawn artwork, really pretty much anything. The intent is to draw interest to or directly promote season 2 of Castle.
Things you can include in your entries are:
- Images of the cast or images from series 1
- Premiere date of season 2 September 21, 2009
- Reference to this website ie. castletv.net
For this competition to be worthwhile we need lots of entries so please mention it wherever you go online!
You can use this banner if you like, or just post a link to this post or directly to the forum.

I would enter the competition but the reward doesn’t seem worth it as much as I like Nathan Fillion.

Brian, the competition really isn’t about the prize, it’s about fans working together to promote the show so that we have it for another season!
I’m sorry the prize isn’t better, but in addition to the running costs of this website, I paid $40 out of my own pocket for it, I can’t afford to do any better, sorry. The only way to have a better prize is to charge people to enter and I don’t think people would go for that. The autographed photo is also something that people can’t just go out and buy for themselves so that makes it special!

Brian, this is a fansite and has no official connection with the show. It’s a miracle that it has an artwork contest at all.

I’ll be sure and mention this in the next Castlecast and be sure that it comes out before the 27th.

Very cool contest, I would love the prize, but unfortunately, I have no artistic ability at all.

I have two entries done. Just waiting to finish my third so I can post all three together.
