Well, it was a quiet contest with only two winners...(there were going to be five, but alas, only two entered). But all that being said, I LOVE my supporters and therefore:

CONGRATS TO JOSHUA AND JESSE! (Jesse, see below for an important message...)

Here are the captions to the provided image:

Joshua: Warning: Do not attempt to push guillotine blade with your hand.

Jesse: No welcome mats here.

SGF Mugs are on their way to the winners.

 

Jesse! Please email me (freyjulia at gmail dot com) so I can get your shipping info to send you your prize!

Happy 5th Anniversary to Safety Graphic Fun! Caption Contest!

Five Years! How can it be...You have all kept me going through the years of awesome posts, literally, with your great pictures and caption suggestions. Thank you for helping me make it this far. I realize this past year has been a bit slow, but hey, a baby and a full time job do tend to take time away from the funny websites!

But to make it all up to you, my dear fans, friends and supporters, I am having a quick "Caption That Safety Graphic!" contest. The funniest FIVE captions you send will receive a Safety Graphic Fun Mug*. Tell your friends.

Enter your captions in the comments and I'll choose and announce the winners by end of day Sunday, December 1. Make us laugh!

Fan Participation Safety

Two weeks ago I mentioned today's SGF 2nd anniversary and asked you to send in a photo of you with your favorite safety graphic. Of the zillions of readers of this site, only one of you came through! SGF's friend Noam from Israel sent in his pic and it really made my week. 

Hooray for Noam! A Safety Graphic Mug is on its way to him as we type/read. 

It's not too late! If you send in your photo with your favorite safety graphic (or any safety graphic for that matter) I will post your photo and send you a SGF item of your choice!

 

SGF Second Anniversary Month! Giveaway!

November 27 will mark the 2nd anniversary of my wacky website and I could not have done it without you! For all of you who have sent in awesome safety graphics, thank you. I have posted just about all of them and you have helped make this site even better than I imagined. Did you know there have been over 1100 safety graphics posted??

Now I'm asking for something slightly different...

Send me a photo of you acting out your favorite safety graphic NEXT TO that very graphic and I'll send you the SGF gift of your choice (mug, totebag or mousepad). 

Send in your images by November 26 and I'll post them on the 27th. 

Email the images to safetygraphicfun (@) gmail (.) com.
