Monthly Photo Comp Discussion Thread...

I've been looking at that today...... there are a variety of calendars available and the most cost effective one is the rectangular shape with space on each date line to add your reminders. I've been looking for the best price and so far the cheapest is £4.99 however that's on a current offer but I'm sure there will be others and I can usually find vouchers on the internet to knock prices down.

Without going into too much detail at the moment... the winners can email their pictures and they can be added to the calendar quiet easily this way the quality is much better.

I'm doing some homework on it and once all the information is at hand I could put a post up to see how many members would be interested???

 

The reason I mentioned it was because I am putting one together using some of my own photo's and I'm putting together a hard back book of Tess photo's as Christmas stocking presents for the father-in-law :reindeer lights:

 

I think that's a good choice Apple Blossom, I use these calendars as they are so handy.

My daughter buys the blank version to insert her photo's into pockets, do you mean this type or a calendar that has the photo's printed on?

 

Hi @Sheal I mean the one where the photo is printed like a calendar you may purchase in the high street

 

You're right of course Shiney, there is a lot involved.

 

Hi @shiney @Sheal @wiseowl I'm sorry I haven't been back to you with regard to the calendar I've been doing some really long hours in work and then just too tired to think about it

I have some major exams a week tomorrow so my head is down at the moment swatting up for them.

Once they are out of the way I will have lots of time to investigate

My apologies again I've only popped on line just to do some research and GC keeps distracting me..... so back to my studying

 

I hope all goes well with the exams Apple Blossom.

 

I considered that, but it would have left my valid entry appearing invalid with voting started.

As you know (PM of 11th Oct), both my in-laws have been seriously ill, my MiL going into hospital twice and my FiL the once, but he almost died, and having been so occupied with that I hadn't got around to submitting anything for the Oct comp, early yesterday I thought I'd missed it completely and it was only around mid-day when I remarked to someone that Halloween the night before had been quiet and only then when told it was still the 31st that I realised there was still time to enter and took some pics, but by the time I'd had a look through and went to post saw it had been ended early.

Perhaps a marker type post, stating not to submit any more entries after 23:59 and that the start of voting post would be added the following day have worked better?

Anyway, please do not take offence and please continue with the comps.

 

That's a good idea, I did wonder if you were going to stay up to nearly midnight on the last day of every month waiting to hit the Post Reply button, even 12 mid-day should be fine as long as everyone knows when it's going to end.

If you were to be unavailable on the day, I'm sure any number of others if asked would add the 'voting post' at whatever the appropriate time is changed to be, and could have it ready saved as a Draft and a reminder alert set up in the online diaries.

 

No problem with me on that, any way, isn't it, Admin's word is final
