[QUOTE="Geoffc, post: 301093, member: 8705"] I'm on a couple of forums that run monthly challenges and both offer the members the chance to score each photo between 1 and 10. Why put the load on the mods? You have to vote or your submission is removed so that encourages voting. Also, on one of them you have to rate a certain percentage of pictures or yours is removed. That forum typically has 90-100 submissions per comp. Those comps are weekly turnaround and the guidance is strict regarding the picture must be taken within specified time and only certain photoshopping can be applied depending on the challenge. On one of the forums certain members trip out the same old picture every couple of months in the hope that one day it will win. It doesn't as it's just as crap now as it was the first time:confused: Personally I would not allow that sort of thing and I don't think it's within the rules here either. [/QUOTE]
