Next use some logic, I cant say why or how but use some logic when searching.

Use the brute force method and have some patience and you will find it, you cannot miss it when you open the right page trust me its big and right in your face.

To be fair no one likes being unable to enter a contest and while there is no barrier here, it seems like a lot of work to simply enter the contest. You don't actually win the card for finding the image. Simply a chance to win said card.
 
Is there any evidence to suggest the picture is on a review or article and not somewhere random on the site?

Also, in my searching, I seem to have found 2 site errors:
1) The legal link at the bottom of the site doesn't work.
2) The "CSS valid" link at the bottom of the site does work, but the site is not actually CSS valid.
 
Haha, I am going to feel dumb once the answer comes out, but I did find an error in one of your links.

On the bottom of most of your pages are a few links and the legal one appears to be broken...

Actually it is, I cant say the logic I used because if I did I would give a huge hint. All I am going to say is if you were looking for a something related to sports in a paper your hardly gonna look at the obituaries now are you.

Ya no one likes it but the prize is something epic so if your not willing to put in a little work in your spare time then you dont deserve to win something worth 600 pounds. Also by doing it this way you have a better chance of winning. For example so far less than 100 people probably have entered with the correct answer so your odds of winning are greatly increased. Now if you didn't have to put in any work what do you think the odds would be. More like 1000/1 or maybe more if it was like a facebook contest where all you have to do is click one button.

At the end of the day if you want it bad enough you will put in the effort.

Like I would love to win it cause I would sell my sli 680s and buy a second one and have sli 780s :D
 
I found it in 1 hour and 30 minutes! There's no need to brute force your search if you can think outside the box ;)

Tom, you were sneaky with the dates you used. I like it!

Edit 2: Ignore the edit below. I've submitted my entry!

Edit: On a semi-related note, I haven't yet submitted my entry because I want to make sure this site works with my email first. I don't want to win and then not be notified!

Finally found it.

I just scared the bejeezus out of the missus by screaming 'YEAAAAAHH'.

Brute force browsing will eventually win out. It's taken me the better part of three days.
 
Basically, "brute force" (in this context) means the long way. Opening every single link and manually checking the contents. As opposed to having a strategy and breaking up the search by dates or clues.
 
After looked the quarter of the ******, without any luck. I changed my method of searching by trusting my instincts and my logic and FOUND IT!!!! Yahoo!
