    Now that we have it, I think I like it, despite my mixed feelings before.

    Wait, what?

    Is this the start of contests being open a week before they go live?

    Just trying to figure out WTF’s going on?

    Never mind… figured it out.

    BUT… HTML fail. Elsinore, would be so kind as to delete the first “Stairway in Geneva (NY)” post? Forgot the img tag.

    Muchas Gracias

    Ummm are we allowed to use stitched shots that we would have used for a contest in the current year if the internet hadn’t been playing up at the time?

    /I was planning to enter a faux pano shot I had created but didn’t get to use.

    lol yes, this is the start of that. I’ll reserve judgment till we’ve tried it out for a few weeks. It definitely feels more like PS doing it like this, and I wonder if it will lessen our sense of community by no longer having the ‘everyone get together at 8pm on Wednesday to submit’ thing. On the other hand, the PS’ers have a good community, and that really takes place outside the contest threads anyway.

    Got your post, too.

    Gotta be something you actually used in a contest if it’s something outside the usual rules, sorry.

    The one thing about the “everybody get together Wednesday evening from 8-12:30” is that a number are also visiting here and voting on themes. I have done no calculations or measurements, but I definitely feel busier in the Themes thread on Wednesday and Thursday.

    We’ll see what happens in that venue as well.

    And thanx for killing that post.

    That’s a good point, too. I shifted to posting the link to the discussion thread, but maybe I should add something to the Boobies with a link to the themes board to help drive traffic there, too.

    We can post the threads a year in advance and I’ll still procrastinate to the last minute. 😆

    Elsinore – I may have forgotten to enable voting on my 2013-05-06 10:22:40 PM king of the forest. Any chance you could check that for me before it goes live? Gratis Maxis.
