Cutest Kid - Vibe - Post Pics here

[Rathji]

EDIT: Since there are threads popping up about this contest all over, I want to propose that we merge them that way, we can put our votes toward getting the finalists from CP
*************************
Post your voting link and a picture in this thread
*************************

If there is enough demand, I could even edit my original post to add in links/pictures for anyone who doesn't want them to be lost in multiple pages.
---------------------------------

So my wife has entered our daughter in this cute kid competition they are holding at Vibe. I figured I would do my part and drum up some support. You can vote once per day per IP. Right now the servers are borderline epic fail so I have included the direct link to vote so you don't need to wade through 20 mins of load times to find her.

If you don't already have someone who you are going to vote for:

Vote here - Vote Often

That's a really cute kid you have!

Can't say the same for a lot of other kids though; a lot of the parents who are submitting their kids are unfortunately revealing that their kids look more like gremlins than cute children. I see it with other people who are promoting their kids on facebook and such.

Nice picture Rathji.

My sister has one going as well for Halloween costumed kids at her photographers website. She dressed my 1 yr old nephew as a floppy eared bunny. I told her to be prepared to hide those pictures. He's going to HATE them!

Love the picture Rathji.

You have my vote also.

She's a cutie. Good luck in the contest.

cute girl OP and goodluck

I dislike this VIBE contest tho based on the fact that everything i read on the internet with calgarians in it has multiple people bringing it up. GREAT move on vibe's part though, a successful campaign with the amount of publicity it is getting.

Vibe says the site has crashed from too much traffic.

People are massively flooding my FB home page with these requests. Then, I click on pictures of their kids and half of them look like demonized gremlin mutants that would give the toilets in Cowboys at 2 a.m. a run for their money in the cuteness department.

Cute kid Rathjii, but this contest itself is becoming increasingly annoying! But I voted you nonetheless.

[Ethaniel]

Please Vote and Pick the Cutest.

See Sig for my Twin Girls.

Yep. Pretty sure I'm going to start saving all these pictures to my hard drive and uploading them to new paid subscription page known as uglybaby.ca.

I also dislike these types of contests, because honestly, most parents think their kids are a lot cuter than they actually are. And people always give the obligatory "aw..that's so cute!" with EVERY baby they see. Meanwhile in my head I'm thinking "are you freaking serious? Cute? Really?" for half the babies I see.

P.S. Not directed at you Rathji, cuz honestly I do actually think your kid is pretty cute.

I made this thread with the intent that it was a generic thread that anyone could post their kid in. I will edit the original post to make that clear so we can get rid of the multiple threads.

I agree 100%

That is why I posted a pic, to let people decide for themselves rather than just clicking the link blindly. If you don't think she is cute, vote for someone else you think is. My original hope was this thread be a collection of pictures we could vote for from the CP collective. That way we can get as many of the finalists from CP as possible.

[Ethaniel]

Yeah and I agree the Mods need to combine them and maybe more generic or i have a feeling the board will be flooded with kids.

Last year my cousin had a baby that I thought looked rather ugly on first viewing, although of course I didn't say as much. Then, when I mentioned to my dad that I thought the kid was double-plus homely, he laughed and said, "That's too bad because your mother thought he looked a lot like you!"

[worth]

Isn't this kind of whoring out your kid for the chance to win money?

It seems strange to me that people are so eager to post pictures of their children all over the internet and enter them into contests. I think that's something I'd rather stay away from when I have kids.

We had submitted our kids...or at least we thought so until I looked at the site when it was up and running. Apparently we didn't send the photos in on time so they're not entered...and now that I've seen how many kids are up there, it's just as well. I don't know a single person that would wade through hundreds of pictures and actually vote on the one they thought was the cutest. The only way people are going to get votes is by asking friends and family to vote. While I don't like all the Facebook group invites I've recieved (no, I didn't start one nor would I have if my kids were in!), I do understand parents "campaigning" for some votes.
