Thanks for info Ian!
You should have more categories, or more prizes (e.g. for best three entries). That would imo bring you some more contestants, who could say - what for do I enter, when there's AlexiZ or Ana around with their entries
No, I didn't mean myself :lol:

Hi Nameless.

You could enter for the fun of competing against the best! :D

You could enter in case the best decide not to enter because they think that Nameless will win! :D

You could enter for the thrill of having your marvellous paintjob admired by all our visitors! :D

Or you could enter because you have a heart of gold and it is a very good cause! :D

Or you could enter because I have to give $2 USD to Children in Need on behalf of each person who enters even if they do not win! :D

There are so many reasons to enter even without prizes for being second or third! :D

:lol:

Hi,

I does this work if I want to enter.( Terrifying with everybody entering and my lower skill level :))) Do I have to send you the mini(s) over to you if I'm a poor photographer ? Does it cost anything to enter(donation to children in need or something else ?

Thanks
Moose

Hi Moose.

There is no entry fee. We sponsor everyone who takes part by donating $2 USD to Children in Need on behalf of each entrant regardless of their level of skill. We will also sponsor a couple of experts more heavily just to make sure that there is some decent competition for Nameless to worry about! :lol:

Of course anyone can make a donation of their own if they wish, either via the Challenge or direct to CiN if they prefer. :)

Please do not send your figures to me! I am the world's worst photographer. If you are really not good at photography please find someone who lives near you who will help.

:D

Yep, that's a gooed enough reason to enter - the donation to charity for the very fact you participate.
