2009-09-21 [Nehirwen]: :P
I'll set them up somewhere during the day.

2009-09-21 [Nehirwen]: You want to open all of them directly? (I made the fire; fire and smoke btw)

2009-10-08 [Hedda]: Yes, why not?

2009-10-08 [Nehirwen]: I forgot. >.>

2009-10-09 [A Phoenix Rising]: Alright! New themes, yay!
:D

2009-10-11 [A Phoenix Rising]: Question - it's not permissable for one to submit the same images to more than one session, correct? For instance, were I to submit photos for the Fall Session from the Plant session, they would not count, would they?

2009-10-11 [Nehirwen]: No, they wouldn't. ;)

2009-10-14 [Hedda]: I'm not sure about that. If the photos are OK for both themes, than I guess they are OK. It's just that we expect a little different styles, I guess.

Just submitting the same page to two contests will make you unpopular though. But using the same photo of an autumn tree in a series of autumn photos and in a series of photos of that tree in different seasons would be totally OK.

2009-10-14 [Nehirwen]: But it wouldn't improve the count of submitted pictures as it was already submitted before, right?
It's going to be annoying to keep track of those double pictures when counting everything when adding stuff to the reference pictures..

2009-10-14 [Lothuriel]: Yes because we all base popularity on how well we are liked on the internet.....0___o

I agree [Nehirwen]...

2009-10-14 [A Phoenix Rising]: Well, I wasn't so much concerned with the actual contests themselves, I suppose, as much as I was asking for the general purpose of having the contests, which is to accumulate reference photos for different topics. I would assume that in the Photo Sections, "Trees" and "Autumn" would be under different categories, even though several images may count towards both. If they didn't count in the voting or whatever, that doesn't bother me, and I'm not really worried so much about winning as much as contributing to the categories that I am able to.

Am I explaining this well enough?

2009-10-15 [Lothuriel]: Yep

2009-10-15 [SilverFire]: You could just make a note saying "It's okay to submit the same photos to more than one session, but if you've already submitted them before, please tell us. If you don't... we will hunt you don't an kill you!!! :) " <_< Or, well. y'know, something like that...

2009-10-15 [Nehirwen]: You contribute even better if you make and donate different images for each category. :P
I guess that note is a good idea too though. >.>

2009-10-15 [Lothuriel]: I really don't agree with the idea of allowing people to use the same photos. The purpose of this contest marathon is to build our stock photos in number. If entrants repeat entries, then it defeats the purpose. Just my opinion

2009-10-15 [Nehirwen]: We could double them in the reference pictures themselves perhaps if a photo fits two themes, so you can easily find stuff..

2009-10-15 [Lothuriel]: If that is what you want to do....

2009-10-15 [Nehirwen]: Meh, I think wikis that close in category should be listed on one wiki anyway.
I'm not that fond of double pictures either (and the work it involves). x)

2009-10-15 [Lothuriel]: LOL...amen to that last part. Like I said hon, whatever you want to do and I will comply. Well, help...not comply...erm....ah man...

I totally messed up this comment but, it's kinda funny so I will leave it, hehe.

2009-10-15 [A Phoenix Rising]: :)

Didn't mean to make a big issue out of it, but thanks for making it clear.
I'll just submit new photos for each session I've an interest in to save you all the trouble.

2009-10-15 [Lothuriel]: No, no sweetie! It's not a big deal. We just have to discuss it so the left hand knows what the right hand is doing. New suggestions and ideas are always welcome! ^__^
