Just a thought

Postby patchz » Mon Jun 28, 2010 12:29 am

[color=#000000]We have screenshot contests for Freeware, Payware, Edited, Judges Contest and the Monthly. We also have some very talented photographers and a Photo and Camera section. Why not have a contest for them, or add the catagory to the nomination thread. I don't have a working camera nor the opportunity/location to compete, but I think there are enough members to have a decent contest. Some of them border on professional quality. I have not had a conversation with any of them, so I don't know if they would even be interested, but I think it would be a very interesting addition. As the title says, just a thought. Cheers,
Larry

That thread was back in October of last year, and we've had a few new faces come in since then.

Never hurts to ask again.  ;)

I would leave out the word 'contest' though.  ;D  ;)

Call it, Photo of the Month, more as a recognition of exceptional photographic work, or sheer dumb luck if no one wants to be so bold.   :D

I still think it's a good idea.  [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Nah, eventually he's going to take every shot, from every angle, of every plane, that is possible to take there.

That, or they'll shut it down.

I, for one, am extremely jealous and would love to visit there one day. But I fear the closest I'll ever get is through Mic's shots unless someone wants to pay for me to fly over there. :D

[quote]I've read how a lot of the tax payers in England are quite sick of the large waste of money that loop represents.
I think they don't know a good thing when they've got it.

I can't find the link, but, I KNOW it's here somewhere, and it is directly related to these two:

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... donia.html

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... donia.html

As soon as I figure out who posted it, and where it is, I come back here and post it,
but if I don't, please be aware, that it's not that important an issue to me, as I live several thousand miles away from it, and it doesn't cost me a dime.
