Well to be honest hardly anyone is posting and there is still a wall of rules.
I think its off putting.
Maybe this would be better
1. Theme for challenge
2. Post your own work
3. Try and post work produced within the challenge period. (not a golden rule.
My reason behind my number 3 is : its not always possible (I'm a full time dad) to get out and shot even within the 2 week period. Discussion on other on-topic work produced before the challenge dates is just as valid and just as useful.
I think the thing that separates this thread is the theme, and C&C. Other threads either have a theme or have C&C - you have both.
I have supported the thread as I think it's a great idea but as it stands - not much is happening.
I tend to agree with most of what Chappers has to say. I don't think the rules are really what's putting folks off, though. People tend to get set in their ways and post to Weekly Contest or POTD. This thread and the Best Point and Shoot gives people like me who are short on hot glass and such a place to post photos and grow in skills.
The short form proposed has it's advantages in allowing limited back-dating. The last Fortnight here in Washington State has been one of record heat, and I only got out once or twice.
