    I was thinking of having a special Challenge between the members of this Community.

    I had participated in challenges like the famous STF challenge
    http://www.pbase.com/stfchallenge

    We could create a challenge room in this forum and go with it.

    I have already done this a couple weeks ago to another site as I was the host of this challenge. I have the rules already written and all I would have to decide here is the subject of the first challenge.

    Then we post our challenge pictures, vote on them and the picture that has the most votes have the owner host the next challenge ...


    Would you be interested in something like that ?


    Let me know ...

    Will there be a Boobie-Prize for the one who gets the least votes?

    Count me in how about we do the first challenge on warm sandy beach pictures that will give the rest of us a chance against Boobie Joe since his beaches are covered in 15 feet of snow....
    seriously count me in

    Piece of cake, no problem, I'm good at that, you guys don't have a chance. Where's Terri Hatcher???? :wink:

    Just seemed fitting, somehow.

    We went through some rather lenghty discussion on another forum regarding "the challenge" in regards to post-processing, what is acceptable, etc., and came to the conclusion that there should be 2 categories, "artsy" where anything goes, and "minimal", a much more subjective set. How did you, or did you address that at all, on your other forum?

    From NJ and you want warm, sandy beaches? What the HECK is wrong with you? Why don't you just give the first one to some of those dange Floridianimeiners for crying out loud. "Warm Sandy Beaches" indeed....

    Now, I think the challenge topic should be "smoking volcanoes with growing lava domes", yeah, that's the ticket, everybody has one of those close by, right?

    By definition, you gotta work a little for the challenge, birds are too easy for the south people at the moment ...

    I tell you what, win the contest, you'll host the next one and decide on the topic :wink:

    Don't say that Frank, the topic might require more imagination than photogtaphy skills after all ... Who knows ...
