All you need is a hat a cane and a moustache…
From Lucille Ball to Brigitte Bardot…from Billy West to Robert Downey Jr and France’s Gad Elmaleh… children who love his films or his walk: people have often dressed up as The Little Tramp.
To mark the new design of our website and the 30th anniversary of Chaplin’s death, we thought it could be fun to launch a competition for the best picture of someone dressed as Chaplin. We don’t mean professional look-alikes, but you, your children, your grandmother!
Almost 90 years ago, Mary Thurman (actress) had the chance to wear the real costume of The Little Tramp…

I've uploaded my pictures onto the website. Are they automatically entered in the contest or is there another step I have to do?
TheLittleFellow1991
I signed up and uploaded my pictures onto MyPage. How do I enter them in the look alike contest?

How did you enter the contest Little Fellow? You look great! Thank you, in advance.
TheLittleFellow1991
I'm not sure how to enter the contest. Could someone help me out please?
TheLittleFellow1991
I uploaded my pictures onto MYPage, but I don't know if I'm automatically entered or not. Thanks, for the compliment by the way. I like your picture too.

Thank you, Little Fellow. I see five of your photos. It must take a day before one is entered. Best wishes and Happy Holidays to all!

I have the same inquiry as Little Fellow, if I've signed up and uploaded my images, when do I know if I am part of the "look-a-like" category? I looked for images in the "look-a-like" section but they aren't there yet. Should I just sit tight and be patient?
Dingoesatemycamera
oh, and ps I like your images little fellow.
rkoceaneyes@aol.com
Dingo, you look great. Visions of Charlie! Yes, they are there. It takes a day...or two. Best wishes!

I added some pics and would like to enter. Can someone tell me how?

I have a question about how small or large the images should be to submit for the contest. I have saved them all at 72 for the web. The dimensions of each are roughly 4x6. Do they need to be smaller? I tried to upload one and it was taking a long time. I finally gave up and decided I'd better ask. Thanks.

charly @meeximus: the bigger the picture the longer it takes to upload and generate the many thumbnails(5 dimensions each) but there isn't any limitation really. Great picures by the way !

Thanks, I tried a different server to upload them and it worked just fine.

Thank You! :-D

So any uploaded pictures will automatically be entered into the contest? How long does that take (I know I'm cutting it a little close to the deadline...)?

I uploaded my images a couple days ago but they weren't sent into the competition- did I do something wrong? They're on my page, how can I add them to the contest? Any help is appreciated. :o)
