Thanks to all of those that participated. Pretty cool shots. I enjoy seeing what different parts of the county have to offer.

Good luck to all.

Considering all of the history in my area, I really should be in on this. Is it too late?

FWIW, I have never voted or anything because I dont ever see this until the winner is announced on the Home page. Ill vote when i get back to my room though, for some reason I cant see pictures anymore.

Yup turnout too low. We have 1000 members or more and no votes, so I cried.

This contest usually runs in the Photog and Video subforum. Maybe a note at the top of the forum homepage would help....

If you're at work, they may be blocking the site where that image is hosted.
I have that problem as well, though I can see Dane's perfectly. Probably different blocked sites.

The poll looks like it's closed

Ahh. Dane set that poll up. Don't know if he wanted it to close so early.

But if he did, congrats. I'm reserving my enthusiasm until I get the official word. :biggrin

It might help next month to have a huge banner at the top of the page instead of the normal sized one there now, maybe in a different color too so it grabs your eye

Many people have turned off their ability to see graphics, etc. There is a graphic at the top of the site now. I know some people have never seen it.

The yellow one will have to do.

That's the one I'm talking about, could you change the font size/color?
Marcus-SanDiego
09-30-2011, 02:02 PM
Font size, yes. Not sure on color. I'd like red. Will check.

Thanks Boss!

Congratulations.

What I thought was cool about the theme for this month was that we would either recognize a place we have been or learn about a new place. Good theme Dane and great pic Hermes...

In your bad ZHP.

I just wanna say it was cause of Casey that I took this shot, if he hadn't posted a shot at the wrong ship (didn't work with the rules) I wouldn't have even gone to this spot. The pic in my sig works also for this contest, but I just had to shoot at the Star. Casey, can you put that shot at the Midway back up please?

Congratulations on the win JP and thanks for the kind words. I am glad you were able to draw some motivation/inspiration out of it and get out there and shoot.
