Follow the instructions to first visit www.Shutterfly.com to take a look at the Photo Card templates and return to the applicable Hosting Website to post a comment about your favorite template. By submitting your comment, you will automatically receive one (1) entry into the Sweepstakes. Posts may not be indecent, obscene, hateful, tortious, defamatory, or libelous or contain material that violates or infringes another’s rights, or disparage Sponsor, Administrator or Shutterfly or any other person or party affiliated with the Sweepstakes, or contain material that is unlawful in any way. Sponsor and Shutterfly reserve the right to remove any posts that it finds unlawful, or in violation of these Official Rules, all in its sole discretion. Limit: You may enter one (1) time per Hosting Website during the Promotion Period. Multiple entrants are not permitted to share the same email address.  Any attempt by any entrant to obtain more than the stated number of entries by using multiple/different email addresses, identities, registrations and logins, or any other methods will void that entrant's entries and that entrant may be disqualified. Use of any automated system to participate is prohibited and will result in disqualification. In the event of a dispute as to any registration, the authorized account holder of the email address used to register will be deemed to be the entrant. The “authorized account holder” is the natural person assigned an email address by an Internet access provider, online service provider or other organization responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted address. Each potential winner may be required to show proof of being an authorized account holder.


5. Drawings: The designated overseer of each Hosting Website (“Host”), determined by Sponsor in its sole discretion, is an independent judging entity whose decisions as to the administration and operation of the Sweepstakes and the selection of the potential winners are final and binding in all matters related to the Sweepstakes. Each Host will randomly select a potential Sweepstakes winner from all eligible entries received at the applicable Hosting Website, on or around December 7, 2011. Where necessary, potential winners will be contacted by the applicable Host to collect the potential winner's name and email address. Each such potential winner will have two (2) days to respond with the requested information to claim the prize. Thereafter, Administrator will notify the winners by email and except where prohibited, each winner (or parent/legal guardian if winner is a minor in his/her state of residence) will be required to sign and return a Declaration of Compliance, Liability and Publicity Release ("Declaration") and such other releases that Shutterfly may require, and which must be received by Administrator within five (5) days of the date notice or attempted notice is sent in order to claim the prize. If a potential winner cannot be contacted, or fails to complete the Declaration within the required time frame, potential winner forfeits the prize. Receiving a prize is contingent upon compliance with these Official Rules. In the event that a potential winner is disqualified for any reason, the applicable Host in conjunction with the Sponsor will select an alternate winner by random drawing from among all remaining eligible entries. Only three (3) alternate drawings will be held, after which the applicable prize will remain unawarded. Prizes will be fulfilled approximately 8-10 weeks after all winners are confirmed.
