Thats great thanks Jani, will take you up on that! I don't think we'll need coppermine, but hosting and running of stuff would be apriciated. I was thinking we could host all the pics, put them up in a thread next to peoples names, and have a poll so everyone could judge.

I'll let you know when we get some entries, and I'll get everyone to pm you in the next one! Cheers dude

Sounds like a cool idea guys, missed most of the discussion until now! It'll give me some sort of incentive to get my camera fixed, so I'll probably miss the first comp at least.

Come on guys, entries are thin on the ground so far! I reckon we've got four at current count, even if only one has been sent to me!!! Less than a week!

Entries from currently recieved from:

Chris
Hugh
Nick

I know Foggy and Dekay have entries (well, Dave just needs to confirm which one he wants entered I think ;)), as does Pete_F, which is coming from Greece via Pettaw (although he doesn't know it yet...)

Any more for any more? Wonder if we can get the word out to the polishing brigade somehow, might have a word with George Mitchell, to put a word in the FOTV3 magazine, and to Jack Cluer for the Technical if this becomes a running thing.

I have an idea, if I get car running tomorrow ( most likely will happen) then I will have to just take the pic so maybe I'm on time :P

Unfortunately I haven't had time to do a proper pic so have just submitted one I had laying around, but there is also a 360 related story behind it. Pretty crap, but an entry is an entry :)

I'll try harder next time :)
