Monthly Photo Awards at P.ca

[Mad Aussie]

Ok ... the MCM Award (Marko's Choice of the Month Award) thread is done and you can see that here http://www.photography.ca/Forums/sho...0551#post10551

I stuck it in Photo Assignments for now because I don't have access to the Announcements and Site Information Forum where I'm guessing you'll want to move it to.

I haven't checked it for spelling or mistakes etc so feel free to make whatever changes you want Marko, as if that wasn't your perogative anyhow

I'll go make a similar thread for the Members Choice version now.

Same same for the Members Photo of the Month Award thread Marko.

Ack.

I made a thread in the show your photo thread...but maybe one should email what I should have written in it..

I was also wondering..since I have to chose..can I copy and paste a photo in??? Wouldn't be right would it?

[Mad Aussie]

I see no reason why you can't nominate photos yourself Kat. By the end of the month you may still agree with your choice or you may find other peoples choices more appealing.

Looking at your thread, the only thing I'd suggest is a link to the thread I made (when Marko moves it to where he wants it) to help people understand what it's all about. You could link it now I guess and then change the link if Marko moves the thread.

[Marko]

Thanks for all the help on this...

I may change a wee bit but I'm keeping 99% of what is written.

Small point...My choices will only be from the show and critique forums. (Just choosing from the show forum took about 45 min)

Also I'm not sure that the person that I pick for my winning photo should be able to nominate their own photos as one of the 5 - do you?
and I also think that MY photos should also be exempt....do you?

Many thx again!

I just posted this in the Show your photo thread, but I am pulling myself out of this contest thing. I have stated the reasons in detail there, but thought it would be a good idea to put it here as well. I will be more than willing to help out with anything though. Just let me know. Thanks.

I deleted the post JJeling as it was the wrong place for it. I'll create a thread for people to opt out.....personally....if someone wants to nominate your photo, I'm not sure why you would object but it's your call.

Thx Marko

I think the best place for members to nominate members' photo is in the show forum so I've moved the official thread there. That's also the place where I'll post my pick as well.

There are restrictions on members posting in theAnnouncements and site information forum
(so it's not the best spot for it)

[jjeling]

With the number of images Ill end up putting up here, it just seems like it would be easier to see my name and skip by them in search for a nomination. If you dont think that would be the case then I will reconsider.

[Marko]

It's absolutely your call but I would ask that you reconsider. If someone really digs one of your photos, why should they be prevented from nominating it? You just never know when a photo of yours will touch someone so i prefer that you allow them to honour it through a nomination.
thx - M
