    Did photo of the Week wither on the vine? Or was it stopped for a reason? Or am I just not seeing it for some reason?

    Ah I saw mention on the 2nd last one that there weren't too many respondents with 12 that week and only 8 on the last one held.

    Maybe a photo of the month / fortnight?

    Bryan,

    I stopped running it when I ran out of time and when it became less relevant changing the picture on the web site (it's now random changing images over there).

    We also have a lot more weekly threads than we did when I started it.

    I'll happily restart one, but what's the "reward" going to be? Let's have a discussion.

    Does not winning weekly contest qualify as a reward itself?

    Yeah, peer recognition is nice - and being on the website is good too - although not sure how many eyeballs they get...

    OK. One other thing I had a problem with was timings. I am really busy on many things and sometimes I forgot about the photo of the week. If it's not going on the web site, it would be good if someone else managed it. But if I get no takers in the next few days, I'll give it a go.

    I am happy look after it sometimes if you are busy. Maybe a few of us could share the responsibility?

    But to be honest, I may not contribute every week / period, the random nature of capturing suitable images being what it is...
