Well, guys... Wouter's comment got me thinking. In the GT4 Photo Comp that I host, we have bi-weekly themes, falling on every even week. Are you people up for a theme that could fall every 5 weeks or something? (or every 2 weeks, or 10 weeks) I'm just thinking that it could add some life/flavor to this competition, rather than having the same thing happen every week. It would be an added challenge.

For example, challenges could include: GM/Vauxhall/Holden only, moving cars, cars that retail under 25,000 (US dollars), white cars, super low-res (400x300), etc.

I think that it's a very good idea.

[henk4]

can you think of a category where this would fit? Bling Bling?

Anyway, Webster Oldsmobile Special, Laguna Seca 20-8, Canon 10D,

That's not what I had in mind. I questioned the voters' motives, not the submitted pictures.

I understand what you posted, but I was just wondering if people had a desire to add challenges to this comp. If people want it to remain the same, then it'll be the same ol' comp. Plus, these challeges could be every 10 weeks or so, so it wouldn't veer the competition off it's 'historic' roots.

[Rockefella]

Does this count as automotive? :p Added a 800x600. :)

ROFL!

A train... Very good :D Wheere was that taken? It looks like i have been there before.

I also like the idea of alternating themes, as i participate in the GT4 comp, it makes a difference, and i think it is better.

Might be a problem because some people might not have acess to some cars and then wont be able to enter.

I'm sorry but I think that giving special themes to the contest would make guys who have not much time to spare (like me) would be absent of the comp for most of the time...

cliche it mmay be. But a well executed one. :)
