Hello dear readers,
As you know last year we decided to create the SX Magazine Awards with the intent to celebrate the talent of the SL Adult industry, of which we're proud to be part. The enthusiasm with which you joined us in that adventure overwhelmed out best expectations. It was good time for our community, and that's why we decided to bring back the Awards for a second edition. We also decided to create new categories, to reward the fantasy and variety of skills of the producers. We hope to see you all back for this new, exciting edition of the SX Magazine Awards.
The contest is open to photographers, models, directors and actors who created or performed in photos or movies that were created after August 1st 2016.
Awards will be assigned for the following categories:
- Best Erotic Photo

By applying for the section ' Best Movie ', your movie will be also eligible for awards in the categories ' Best Cinematography ', ' Best Storyline ' and ' Best Editing '.

To be eligible for the awards, residents must fill in an application form with the links of the works they wish to submit and their calling card. The applications form can be found at Isla's Gallery and Caves ( click here for a landmark ).
It's possible to submit an application from September 6th to November 15th 2017. The application is personal and there is no cost to apply.
Each resident can apply once for each category. Ex: you shoot a photo and acted in a movie? You can apply for both the categories 'Best Photographer' and 'Best Actor/Actress', submitting two different application forms. Be sure to fill in two different application forms, one for each category. WARNING: A resident cannot apply twice for the same category. Applying twice or more for the same category will automatically cause to be banned from the competition.
To apply for the category Best Photo the participant must join the 'SX Magazine' Group on Flickr and add their photo to the group. Each participant can submit one photo to apply for this category.
To apply for the categories Best Photographer, Best Female Model and Best Male Model the participants must join the 'SX Magazine' Group on Flickr and add 3 to 5 photos to the group.
The winners will be chosen by a panel of 5 judges selected among the experienced and respected veterans of the SL Adult Industry. The names of the judges will be announced in the upcoming weeks.
Awards will also be assigned through a popular vote open to all the residents. Certain restrictions will be applied to ensure the winners are chosen by talent rather than popularity.
The winners will be announced in December in a Gala Night Event, to which all the applicants are invited.
The 2017 edition of the SX Magazine Awards is officially open, join us in this adventure!
