[QUOTE="bluenoser, post: 26559, member: 6351"] I think I must be missing something here... But isn't the weekly photo contest of the week winner featured on the home page already? The contest winner should be more "celebrated" than the POTW selection from the galleries. Anyway, anyone can draw attention to any thread on FB or Twitter by linking back to it. Again, I must be missing something. If the POTW contest winner is going to be selected as POTW choice, I don't see how this isn't redundant in every way other than the most hair-splitting way (i.e. the amount and location of the announcement) You read far too much into my comment Helene. I'm not trying to stifle anyone. Yes, banter is definitely part of the charm of this group (and others I belong to). However when the banter posts exceed the "on-topic" posts, it gets tough to follow the thread. I'm not saying that with any bias or vitriol - just stating a fact. Sorry if I've upset the social compact - however this section is called feedback and suggestions and I simply offered mine. I'm not trying to dictate, pontificate or even strongly suggest - I merely offered my thoughts on what I perceived to be a redundant aspect to both of the weekly photo activities, plain and simple.
