Picture of the Month

Post by Class172 »

I was thinking, having been inspired by similar ideas on other sites, that would it be possible for there to be a trainz picture of the month competition where there can be a poll in which we vote for the best picture, then if possible the winning picture could be incorporated somewhere on the main page.

Basic Rules:
  • One entry per user in each competition.
  • Entries must be taken by yourself only - do not use shots which are the property of others.
  • All shots must be taken within trainz.
Like the idea?

I like the idea, I could change the top banner each month with the winning entry, and their username printed on the banner too.

Yes, that was the sort of thing I was thinking about, allowing the banner to change.

Soulds like an idea, however with time not on my side currently, it would have to be Mark doing the majority of judging.

I think it would be best to let the members decide the winner.

Like on the auran forum, one member can vote for 3 different people. So their would be the winner and the two runners up. (if their wasn't more than one person with the same vote count)
Thanks for looking, Willow.

That should be easily able to do as I know that phpBB forums can host polls, where we would vote for the winner.
