View Full Version : New theme for photo contest.... Bob 07-31-2007, 07:02 We need a theme for August... I was think watersports.... lots of possibilities there from a kid in a puddle (if it ever rains), pools, boats, swimming, fishing, etc... Any other ideas? BAM 07-31-2007, 08:49 How about "Just in Time"? Just in time to catch a sunset or a sunrize, a deer eating, a bug land, a squirrel hanging upside down, a flower open, a wave come in. What do you think? BAM 07-31-2007, 08:56 Also what about "Don't bug me!" got plenty of them..could work on the macro too....... gretchensteele 07-31-2007, 10:30 Something that we do on some of the photo sites....whoever wins the challenge/contest has to not only judge the next one, but also picks the theme... How about great examples of Southern IL Architecture...buildings, bridges, monuments.(even the iron furnaces ) ...something man made that is a jewel in Southern IL lifestudent55 07-31-2007, 11:58 Something that we do on some of the photo sites....whoever wins the challenge/contest has to not only judge the next one, but also picks the theme... Wasn't that one of the rules set up on this one too? I could be wrong, but I thought that was how it was set up. Bob 07-31-2007, 12:00 Wasn't that one of the rules set up on this one too? I could be wrong, but I thought that was how it was set up. Works for me... GS gets to pick the next Mo. as well.... gretchensteele 07-31-2007, 12:32 okay..then I Pick Southern IL Architecture and Landmarks! Maybe we can collect enough good shots to do a calendar to help support our site! LOL BAM 07-31-2007, 13:14 That's kewl....I was kinda thinking it would be kewl that whoever won got to pick the next month's theme as well...... Nice choice gretchen..... lifestudent55 07-31-2007, 13:31 That'll be an interesting one. I better start keeping my eyes open to the buildings around me when driving around. huntrz 07-31-2007, 14:39 excellent idea! especially the calender idea! could use photos from whats been posted here. I have been thinking about doing one with my shots for a Christmas gift to family and friends. very cool idea BAM 07-31-2007, 14:40 excellent idea! especially the calender idea! could use photos from whats been posted here. I have been thinking about doing one with my shots for a Christmas gift to family and friends. very cool idea That would be an awesome christmas gift.....How do you do that though? huntrz 07-31-2007, 14:47 I saw something at wally world, at the photo developing area, you give them 12 photos, printed or digital with the month listed you want that photo displayed, I think it was like $16.95 per calender, a litle high but a cool gift for friends and relatives that will appreciate it. I need to get working on that, forst a list of who's gettin one.

Bob 07-31-2007, 16:47 I'll look into it as well... We could use the winner from every month for one, and maybe do a wildlife/ scenic one easily with all the great pics on here... BAM 07-31-2007, 16:53 Silk Worm might be able to make them cheaper I bet silkworm prices are pretty good......the one over in murphy right? They make everything..... Bob 07-31-2007, 17:02 Seems like $14-17 bucks is the standard. WM was 16.84 ea gretchensteele 07-31-2007, 19:38 there are several online printers.....and like anything, the more we order the cheaper they get....if it's something we would be interested in doing...I'll do a little price checkiing etc....I may have to call silk worm ...I was getting ready to order calenders for the Chamber, and a set of mushroom ones for me to sell at fall festival...I'd rather spend my money locally, especially if they can meet my labs price! |
