those kinds of things have been around for years and years - I remember getting all excited when someone wanted my son to be in a Magazine - lol - yeah sure - once I paid them 200 dollars ??? no thanks.

Too bad but it was nice to be excited there for a while wasn't it ?

Thanks you would have laughed at me today when I called his Daddy and told him our son was going to be famous LOL. Then I called my in-laws and told them too they just love love love Georgie. I am just wondering if I should do it since I am not obligated to pay anything for it

They DO end up asking for money...nothing but a scam. I highly recommend you DO NOT anything with this company.

Thanks I am not going to send anything back. It was fun while it lasted

Your welcome I know how your feeling...I was so excited too, I called everyone I knew and told them about my dog becoming a star, LOL I soon found out that I wasn't the only one who got one of their famous letters. Turns out about 4 other dogs in my family had star quality too, LOL...that company is such a scam!!

LOL !!! You gave them a thrill at least.

I was thinking since I read your post - Georgie IS cute enough to be a star - The Book called DOGS 24/7 is awesome...http://www.247mediagroup.com/projects/dogs.html

With Christmas coming - it would make a great gift for your husband & your inlaws....you get to design your own cover with YOUR picture on it when you order. It's so nice it looks like the book was made with your yorkies picture on the cover - It's Very high Quality.

This is my book on the lower right of the picture...it's a really Big Book and a great coffee table gift...I had a really hard time choosing a picture though

Scam Scam Scam... Plus now tey will send you emails for YEARS telling you how you can STILL get in on prizes and such. Plus you will probably get a great official looking letter in the mail with this GRET pix of your dog showing you how it all will look so great in the book...SIGHHHHHHHHHHHH Don't worry.. if you cahange your mind you will get MILLIONS of chances to go ahead and send them money...FOR YEARS

go for it. Congratulations

If you don't have to pay anything I'd go for it. Why not? GoodLuck on whatever u decide.

This is a scam. Maybe you will be in a book but you'll pay for it. I have an idea if anyone wants to test it out. Enter a really bad picture and see if you get a notification that it's a contest "winner". Then you'll know for sure!

Darn, I entered mine in this one. Too bad, I would love winning that money.
Do they try getting you to buy a book with this one??

LOL... I entered Spice into picture.com and received a similar letter. I too called everyone telling them how she was going to be famous. My mom was thrilled and told everyone at work...now I'm a little embarassed. I just won't tell them that it ended up being a scam! I was sooooo excited. Thank goodness I didn't send them money. It did seem a little fishy when they wanted money from me and an autobiography. Why would I have to pay to send in an autobiography for MY picture that THEY want to put in their book???

They want me to send a biography as well to put under his picture. I am very excited and figure why not they are not asking money just permission to use his pic and a biography. They also provided me with an ISDN # for the book at the Library of Congree so it seems legit. What do you all think should I continue with it? Thanks

I hate to burst your bubble but, I did that 6 months ago with Misha. The book is legit they just want money for the biography, the picture enlarged in a frame, & the book. I ended up paying. I was disappointed in the book, it was in B&W, & not very good. I didn't do everything, so I'm only 60 bucks into it. Since I got the book I haven't heard from them again until now. I did it again with Piper. I just received the letter saying I a semifinalist. NO! I am not going to order another book. It's up to you, but I think we could do a better job right here with pictures, and make our own book.

Actually the book does exist. it is not worth the 35.00 for it tho. A picture will be in the book and it will be very small and b/w. The book cost more than it is worth but dont be fooled into buying all the crap they send you.
