I think I have sticky blindness as well as banner blindness. Often times I've missed something on a forum that everyone else knew about.

Could a kind judge ping me the images for January's round so I can update the results site? If we're going to leave things for a bit, lets get the archive in order

Ace Modder · 11 Jun 2013 at 23:22

Well I'm game for getting it back going. I have bought a Canon 400D

ElDude · 11 Jun 2013 at 23:25

It needs more than 1 person

I think there were only about 5 people doing it when it stopped.

Ace Modder · 11 Jun 2013 at 23:30

Well this is the point, who is interested in starting it back up?

If we get a good amount it will be cool!

It would be nice to see this come around every summer or so. Maybe the next time around when things come back, a theme of, what we could do with our hardware since this community is based around OCUK and hardware. I think that theme has a little freedom and creativity like Product shots. Winner or however could get a OCUK coupon code or so?

Really would depend on the rules of its establishment as to my thoughts on participation really....

So...

Judges, Would you be willing to run a round of the comp over the summer?

Rules and procedure as usual, except:

Period is July and August.

Theme of your choice.

Deffo count me in, I'm up for it.

chet84 · 12 Jun 2013 at 07:52

I'm in if it happens

. Been too long!

Red.5ive.Oh · 12 Jun 2013 at 08:00

Put me down as an interested party – I need an excuse to get out with my camera.

A.N.Other · 12 Jun 2013 at 09:29

If there's more interest gathered - early days yet - then I'd probably be happy to return to do some judging. Will have to wait and see what the others say, though, as they both have quite a bit going on. Else we can probably get some guest judges in.

I'm interested. I've hardly taken anything since the competition stopped.

chet84 · 12 Jun 2013 at 12:42

I'm also happy to help out with any organisational work that needs to be carried out around the competition

cokecan · 12 Jun 2013 at 13:11

I'd be interested in this again, though I would like to see the format/rules before saying 100% - I wasn't so keen on some of the ideas that were popping up in the other thread about the future of the comp

I would be happy to try this as a test bed for the competition. Normal competition rules and marking criteria, just each entry must state its own chosen theme and would be judged individually against this, an entry period of two months for a one off competition would hopefully boost the number of entries.

Mobius 1 · 12 Jun 2013 at 18:59

i think i'd be interested in maybe entering!

That might be ambiguous. My intention was that the judges chose the theme.

On the grounds that they would likely choose a good one.

This was discussed during the comp future threads and people moaned a lot about the themes being to random and not generic enough :rolleyes:

I guess it could work either way, so are we thinking normal competition but two months for entries to be made? If everyone is happy with this I am game for a go.
