Soliciting Suggested Themes For February Photo Contest--UPDATED
Hi everyone, this is my virgin run at hosting the contest and I would like to see what should be the theme. I have some ideas to offer but someone might have something better. Since it's winter and February at that, I was hoping to incorporate a February tone with something fun.
So here we go...
I will decide Monday or Tuesday and take the next steps shortly afterward.
ETA: I changed three of the selections (#7) because those option didn't work. Feel free to change your selection if you like.
I'll leave this up for the weekend at least.
