Q: Where are the rules to the Aphrodisia competition?

Q: Can I get a entry poster for myself?
A: Yes, email your PHYSICAL ADDRESS to:

You will be mailed a poster and put on the list for future mailings. Please note that we will only give out posters until they are gone or the deadline for entries has passed.

Q: Can my entry be emailed to Aphrodisia?
A: No, not at this time. We need to ensure all entry forms are correct and uniform, and paper is the best way to do this at this time.

Q: Are there any qualifications to enter?
A: No, just artistic skill and imagination! Everyone is welcome and we encourage anyone, however shy about their art, to enter. This is the place to show the world what you can do!

Q: Why are there entry fees at all?
A: The fees go to pay for the entry poster and postcard printing, mailing and postage costs, website costs advertising and distribution of the book. The poster alone costs almost $9,000 to print and mail 6000 of them!
The sale of the book will cover the rest of the costs- The printing of the book, the comission and casting of the trophies as well as the help of the staff that are putting the whole project together.

Q: What do the winners get?
A: The winners get their work published in the book alongside the well respected and famous judges, with any contact information they desire as well as a copy of the finished book. This will give the 400 or so winners a great deal of international exposure. The top 2 works in each category will be awarded a trophy sculpted by Spencer Davis.

Q: How are the entries judged?
A: Entries are judged by our professional and accomplished panel of Jurors- Danielle Bedics, Brom, Iain McCaig, Julie Bell and Robh Ruppel. Every entry will be reviewed by each judge and given equal consideration alongside the other entries. For more information on our judges see the entry form PDF or the back of the poster.

Q: How many pieces should I submit?
A: As many as your heart desires... as long as the art has been created in the last 2 years.

Q: Can I enter artwork of my favorite female character from a movie, comic or other property?
A: Generally, no- But, If you obtain the permission of the company who owns the property you may. This is at the sole discretion of the owner, please do not ask Aphrodisia to ask for you or make an exception.

Q: Can I submit artwork with nudity?
A: Yes -There are some categories that accept nudity in Aphrodisia. However the work must contain TASTEFUL NUDITY. No work that we deem pornographic in nature will be accepted. You will not be charged your fees or will be refunded for images that are pornographic and they will not be judged.

Q: Is there a way to ask you questions if I don't find the answer here or on the entry forms and rules PDF?
