RCJ Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 Just for something different to do, does anyone want to do a weekly photo competition? Just a suggestion, or has it been done before? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCJ Posted July 11, 2010 Author Share Posted July 11, 2010 could do a topic each week i.e. week 1- weather, week 2- work, and so on... and each week we vote a winner? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aph1101 Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 What a good idea! I would most definitely be up for such a competition. A few months ago we got a photography thread up and running... got to about 7 pages :D Worth a look. There are some good shots in there FOC Photography Thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aph1101 Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 So, any ideas for a theme? My suggestion is water. (Simply because it has just rained here and I've just been out to snap some beading pics :D ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCJ Posted July 12, 2010 Author Share Posted July 12, 2010 no worries will start a new thread if you want? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aph1101 Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 Yep, that would be great :D Cheers. Maybe ask Dan or Gaz to pin it somewhere to try and get as many people as possible to enter :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCJ Posted July 12, 2010 Author Share Posted July 12, 2010 We could do with a rough number of people interested? Because if its just me and you... could be a boring competition lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCJ Posted July 13, 2010 Author Share Posted July 13, 2010 One issue ive got is working out how we choose a winner.... I.e. Poll, Vote through a anonymous PM, Vote in thread, Individual Judge.... What do we suggest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aph1101 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 I would say vote through the thread, but only if we are sure that you can only vote once :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy_1984 Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 best to start a thread called August photo comp say who is moderating the competition in the thread you give a theme for the competition like "cars" give a closing date for the competition (2 weeks or less) everyone who enters posts their pictures on that thread when people taking part posts a picture they need to give the picture a title (for voting purposes) and a wee bit of info to make it more interesting. then on the closing (2 weeks or less) the moderator will put all the pictures on a new thread called "Vote: August photo comp" and create a poll using the titles of the members pictures so any forum member can vote and within a few days or a week close the voting (depends how suscessfull the photo comp gets) count the votes and you have your winner. this is the way we play it on an angling forum i use. you need to be dedecated to it though, try get actual moderators on to it to look after the threads and make them stickies otherwise its a game that gets forgot about. give it a go though ill play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCJ Posted July 18, 2010 Author Share Posted July 18, 2010 Hey Andy, Thanks for the input and suggestions for the Photo Comp brought from another forum.

andy_1984 Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 oh right never noticed the other thread, half asleep here, will give it a go mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCJ Posted July 18, 2010 Author Share Posted July 18, 2010 awesome, i like the whole voting at the end though, something that i need to look into/suggest, as im going away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy_1984 Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 voting on another forum makes it easier for people to vote as all the pictures should be posted on the first thread by the moderator with the titles next to them and the poll at the top. we tried voting in the same thread but it got confusing because people had posted in between pictures so pictures ended up on page 2 and never even got seen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
