Suggestions for POTM topics

I like ugliest sump! How about nastiest wiring or getto reef pics? Or pictures of our electricity bills?

Whatever it is, I think it should be something that everyone can participate in. Perhaps the limited participation in last month's contest was because a good number of us don't have SPS to photograph.

although limited edition sps are not common i still love to see peoples pictures of them. if the competition becomes too common of a subject then the entries will be enormous, just my 2 cents

How about just a 'bump' to the thread requesting pic. this last one I totally missed

I second that, I missed it too . Then again i was too busy wondering where my pic for Dec potm went

It was a sticky at the top of the pictures forum. Do you guys need occasional bumps to get it into the "new posts" list of threads?

Just checking cause we can do that if need be.

I don't know how easy this would be but.............is it possible to track the pictures that are posted in various threads on the board in a given month? A lot of people will not "enter" their picture in a contest for various reasons but probably mostly because they don't think it is very good.
I just thought that if there was a way to track the photos that do get posted and then have them all "collected" somehow for voting on by membership it might be a way to see more people's photos get recognition????
Heck I don't know.

Then more people would feel less marginalized

Well, perhaps a massive amount of entries will just jack up the competiton If the POTM contest never includes "too common..a subject", people who are new to the hobby will rarely get a chance to participate.

Just my opinions, though. Carry on...

Edit: Perhaps it would also be helpful if you guys could post a list of previous POTM contests, so we can try something new.

I missed it as well, it might be because I only look at the newest post thingy on the home page. I never really look at the actual forums.
