Terms and Conditions
I am 18 years of age or older. I certify that I am the author or sole owner of the photograph I am submitting to the Tampa Bay Times and that it has not been previously published, sold or licensed to anyone else for use or publication either in print, on line or in any other electronic media. By sending this photo, I am giving the Times permission to reproduce, distribute, publish, display, edit, modify, create derivative works from or otherwise use the photo in any form or in or on any media existing now or hereafter developed — on the Web or otherwise — without payment or compensation at any time now or at any time in the future. This permission includes the right to sell reprints of my photo. I also understand that once submitted, neither the photo nor this permission may be withdrawn. I understand that the Times may choose not to use my photo at this time but may do so at its own discretion at a later date and may discontinue use of my photo at any time. I agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Times Publishing Company, its officers, directors, employees and affiliates from any and all claims or damages that may be asserted against it as a result of its use of my photo.
