I've said this a few times already, but since it's now the appropriate
topic:  I think one of the best areas will be through aquarium societies
and small aquatic plant groups.  Perhaps a mass mailing (e or snail) to
the lists on the FAQ or Fish Link Central?  But something not quite as
annoying as Ted Colletti's Spam for the North Jersey show in October
(i.e., we only send it once!).

We can encourage societies to tie in the contest with something local,
such as their home show.  This way, people can work together like a "club
team" (note, I'm not saying to judge stuff this way at all!) to help the
folks without photo skills get entered.
