1. There were several making difficult.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

2. Thanks for all your work on this....But, can I please make a suggestion?

Could you please get approval from Skinner to post a notice in GD, when entries are due.

Those of us who are not constantly on photography forum, might like a chance to enter
but unless you are on there you don't know about the filing deadline.

Every time this comes up, I think, "Wow, I could have submitted something on this." and it's too late

28. why not announce the deadline for submissions on GD ? I am always sorry when I don't remember

to check your forum for dates. Is it the same submission date every month?

[Celebration]

32. No, it depends on the schedule of the host

If you add the Photography group to your subscriptions, maybe it will help you remember. It's a fun group anyway!
