It doesn't look like it's going to change your life but then, it doesn't look like too much of a scam, either. ButteryHOLsomeness sprang to mind but I thought others here might wish to investigate - I don't know anything more about it than what I've seen on these two pages so please *do* investigate if you're interested.

Looks genuine, and a way to earn a few quid. However, make sure if you do send it in that you state you are retaining the copyright, and that you are allowing them to use it as stated in the copyright bit they give you (i.e. on the websites mentioned, but not as part of a book, for instance).

I submitted the photo and text for Southwold Pier last year, and also put some effort into other attractions. However, after realising that the site owners want complete ownership I decided not to continue.

They do seem to over egg the earnings:

Hours and the amount you do are flexible. If you have 20 or so points of interest on your doorstep, you could probably photograph them all in a space of a couple of hours, and write a description for each in around 10 mins. (20 lots of 10 minutes) + 2 hours = a total of 5 hrs 20 mins, and the payment for that would be �100 so you can see it has potential...!

Would not take a lot of effort to see that it might not work out quite like that.
