Title: Shot of the month competition
Post by: kanemartin101 on 04 April 2009, 17:28: Dont no if many people think this would be a good idea or if its in process at the moment but it could be one for all the photoloving Golf owners. I am suggesting that every month we should have a shot of the month competition where there is a theme (for example urban or scene with a large statue in anything) and people submit their enteries. From there there should be a closing date and also a poll where people can vote for their favourite. Good Idea ?? Looking forward to feedback.

Ps winner gets nothing just the feeling of winning lol

Creates a ready feed for a forum calendar at the end off the year, too.

Post by: DanoGTI on 19 April 2009, 19:43: FWIW, this idea works well over on the 306gti6 forum. Each winning photo ends up in the forum calendar.
Great idea too :)

We should sticky a thread where people can post in their entries? One per person I assume? Deadline end of next month? What do you all think?

Good work sir!
Title: Re: Shot of the month competition
Post by: kanemartin101 on 21 April 2009, 17:59: Yeh that was what i was suggesting so a theme is set at the start of the month then there is a deadline for the enteries to be in once they are all in someone (don't mind who) would collect the images together and put them into a new thread. Once they are in and the thread is posted everyone can go on there and say a number picture they want and to which one gets there vote. (Y)
