If you would have looked you would have seen that it was in reply to Chris. Why would I have asked you what you considered "lots of time"? There was no reason for name calling. I have a daughter older than you.

Sounds like a reply to what I posted.

I said
It bugs the crap out of me because I can't remember what pictures have been submitted in contests and by accident I submit a picture that has already been submitted to a contest. Also I hate the rule that a photo can't be submitted in more than one contest. I think if the picture has won a 1st 2nd or 3rd in a contest it shouldn't be submitted again.

you said

This is what Chris said He didn't say anything about entering photos that have already been entered into contests.
My suggestion is to everyone starting a contest, allow for lots of time. What's the rush, the point is to have people go out and take new photos instead of submitting the same old ones. Leave lots of time to do so and you'll see more entries. For people like me, suffering from a lack of creativity, it takes contests like these to get me thinking.

Guys, chill. Seriously, this isn't worth arguing about.

"...submitting the same old ones..."

I think TJ interpreted that as Chris saying "...re-entering pictures into contests...", so her reply wasn't aimed at you Jaxx.

Thank you, Himself. That's exactly what I was saying. Smile

By the way...why does it say Aficionado under my name? Question

TJRusso, the terms Fan, Devotee and in your case, Aficionado have to do with the number of posts you've had in the forum. Its a quick way of identifying how active some members are in the forum.

I'm new here, so you may have done this recently, however I didn't notice it in the archive. I thought I'd make a suggestion for a contest of City Lights. Urban lights at night seem like they might pose a nice challenge.
