Well this month's was a roaring sucess with a grand total of 0 entries!
Oh well the prizes will be kept back for a competition sometime in the future..

dan · 03-06-2003, 04:39

Sorry bout that, will make it next time... promise

oli · 03-06-2003, 04:49

no problem - I think the thing is that a lot of us are professionals and just dont get the time. I know that when I've been on the pc all day designing, the last thing I want to do is go home and do some more!

Next time the competition is going to be something easier that shouldnt take too long.

Probably. It could be some people don't understand how it works, I know the full site idea is shelved for now, but maybe you could have a couple of "Competition pages" that would explain how they work and what the current one is / deadlines etc. Just an Idea. Doesn't have to be high tech or anything, I could always help you wack up something (quick) if you like, it shouldn't be too hard if it's just an extension of the new forum style ? (when I get a spare 5 mins that is

)

[/quote:15b867e857] lol I just dont want to swap over till its spot on and has been tested etc.

dorian · 03-06-2003, 09:11

I know the feeling - I'm having it right now...

dan · 03-06-2003, 09:28

Adding those couple of pages would give us somewhere to showcase past winners aswell

Thanks for all the hard work you put into the forum Oli and if you ever need a hand you know where we are (just volunteering everyone's services there

)

You could do like we did at WDF and add a forum for each month's contest... that organizes things a little better and makes it easier to figure out what goes where.

oli · 05-06-2003, 19:26

I was thinking that, also I will install some gallery software so entrants can upload their entries and we have a permanent record of all the competitions.

flezed · 05-06-2003, 21:02

why not making a competition to design a skin for this forum?

I didn't have to time to finish my entry, I'll still show what I had...

CirtexDesign · 05-06-2003, 23:10

Well it sure looks better then what yahoo is now.
