Are you looking for a unique, personalized Christmas present that celebrates your kids and family at the same time?  Look no further…. I have a $50 gift certificate for Photofiddle.com to give away that will cover your Christmas gift giving needs.

Photofiddle.com is a cool service that allows you to upload any photo of your choice, “fiddle” it (i.e. use Photoshop-like tools and filters to make it look artsy or artistic), and then have it shipped to your doorstep in your choice of format: framed, rolled print, rolled canvas or canvas wrapped on stretchers.  The end result is your own piece of art that looks like real art.

Photofiddle.com has been around since 2004 and most notably has been featured on Oprah’s “O List” in 2006.  This really put them on the map, as you would expect from Oprah’s Midas touch.  More recently, the Today Show picked Photofiddle.com as a great DIY decorating idea and the CBS Early Show featured it as a best Mother’s Day gift idea.

Well, Mother’s Day has come and gone and your Mom missed out on this great gift-giving opportunity (although I’m sure she loved the flowers too).  Don’t fret…you can make up for it this Christmas.  Depending on what style and size artwork you choose, this $50 gift certificate can nearly get you something for free.

So check out Photofiddle.com and enter here to win the $50 gift certificate. 

As a bonus, I have a Dad Jam exclusive coupon code that will get you 15% off of any order you place at Photofiddle.com.  I will send out the coupon code to everyone who enters the giveaway contest, including the winner, just for entering.

Here’s how to enter, and the rules:

1. Each person can have up to a maximum of two entries in the contest.
2. You can enter the contest by adding both thedadjam.com and this post to your Stumbleupon.com favorites, AND/OR, by adding thedadjam.com and this post to any other social networking website (delicious, digg, etc.).  You must also leave a comment here at this post to let me know that you have entered and how you have entered (e.g. either via Stumble Upon, or the other social networking site, or both).  This is so that I can verify your entry, and also so that I have your email address to send you the 15% off coupon code and the gift certificate if you win.
3. I will not use your email address for any other purpose other than to send you the 15% off coupon code and the $50 gift certificate should you win.
4. To get two entries in the contest, you would do both of the tasks in point 2, but you only would need to leave one comment to let me know.
5. The contest closes at midnight Pacific Time on Tuesday December 9th, 2008.  All entries past this date will not be included in the contest.
6. I will announce the winner on Wednesday December 10th, 2008, and will send out all coupon codes and the winning gift certificate on that day, Pacific Time, my time permitting, depending on the number of entries, I may not have everything out until Thursday December 11th, but will try my best to get everything out by the 10th.
7. The Dad Jam does not take any responsibility for your orders with Photofiddle.com after this contest is closed.  You will need to deal with Photofiddle.com directly to redeem your gift certificate and/or coupon and abide by Photofiddle.com’s terms and conditions for doing so.
8. The winner of the contest will be chosen by random.org.  I will assign each email address a number (two numbers if you enter twice), and ask random.org to choose a random number.  The holder of the email address with the matching random number is the winner.
9. The winner will be asked to answer a simple skill testing question to claim the prize, in order to cover my butt for any places where there it is required to do that.
10. I will be nominated to become an honourary lawyer for having written these rules.

So go ahead and enter, and let me know about it!  If you have any questions, please contact me.
