    :D Nathan I was just in the gallery & it occurred to me that there are quite a few of us posting pictures now so why don't we have a monthly photo competition :confused: It could be garden related only, or you could devide it into :- Flowers, Veg & scenic (hols or days out) but as garden related as poss. :D We could all vote at the end of the month. :D What do you think ?? :D Damm it forgot to tick the box again :rolleyes: :rolleyes: Damm I need a spell check too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    [​IMG] Welcome if you are new to the forum. [​IMG] They are a great bunch. :D I know we don't all have digital camaras but I am sure you could scan your photo in then upload it. [​IMG] It really is quite easy as long as you follow the steps on how to do it [​IMG] [​IMG] So how about it Nathan :confused: :confused:

    Sorry,

    Recently, I have had a lot of things on, and have not had time to do lots of things :rolleyes: .

    It is a very good idea, I will start a thread at some time in the VERY near future, I will have to find out about a prize (possibly a gift voucher for a garden centre?).

    I would like to say though, Please spread the word, because if the stalwarts of GardenersCorner are the only entrants, it won't be much of a competition, so the more entrants the better.

    Thanks for the input Marley.


    Nathan.

    :D Hi Nathan,
    No problem, we are all very busy at the moment I think. With the photo competition idea, I wasn't really thinking of a prize, just the satisfaction of entering our photos in a comp. The winners photo could be posted on the home page perhaps, each month. If you start offering prizes you are moving into a different ball game & would start costing money, & that is not the idea. Just keep it simple. Maybe we could do a poll? As for picking the winner maybe you could set up a voting facility, where we all vote & then you post the winning picture. I do try to spread the word too. Anyway let me know what you think of that idea. :D

    Oops! how did I miss reading this about the Pic Comp? Yes, count me in, I'm new to posting photos but I'll have a go. I am still trying to get to grips with posting an avatar.
