Do you want a regular photo competition ??

I've made the "July photo competition" thread a sticky for the time being.

As mod for this section I'm quite happy for a "photo competition" thread to run continuously, I think it will be a bit of fun. At the end of the month I'll open a new thread and remove the sticky from the previous month.

I'd like ask that you remember forum rules and that no photo's of a dubious nature be posted (as they'll be removed).

So, here's some basic rules to discuss:

1. One entry per person per month,
2. "Photoshoped" photo's are allowed, AND ALL images in the scene have to be your own work, putting a decent picture onto a background that you didn't take isn't that fair.
3. If you do photoshop the picture please mention it when you post it. Not that there is anything wrong with editing them, it just will allow people to make their on decisions about voting.
4. The winner of the competition will suggest the subject for the following month.
5. The winner cannot enter the following month, but they can provide a photo in the opening post to set the standard if they want to.

As this has been a rather "spur of the moment" idea, let's have some feedback and input on rules etc so we can build the competition around the consensus of opinion.

Some of the regulars can set quite high standards. TC3, Mitch and Jdubya have all posted numerous excellent photo's in the past, so winning won't be easy.

Discuss.....

That sounds good to me and it has my vote

Seeing as this is essentially a bike forum, may I suggest that the pictures always carry that theme as well...
Otherwise it may just become another photo competition.

Nothing wrong with being just another photo competition far as i am concerned as it will allow many more people to take part.

The previous hasn't, but I'm inclined to think that we could have a "General" and a "Bike" award. No reason why not.

Great idea! I also second the theme idea, possibly to be suggested by the previous winner. I'd best get snapping...

Yep sounds like good craic to me bet there are some interesting pics

I have one for it but Quiff took it can i still enter lol, it is of me!

Are we gonna run a bike themed and non bike themed in the same thread?

Sounds like a good idea, might even spurn me on to get the camera out.
