Well I bought a gift subscription for this thread

But her parents paid for it. Now I have a subscription I have to burn. We will run a contest. Here is how it will work:

We need 10 registered users to speak up that are willing to go out and get a photo and allow me to upload it just so we can keep it anonymous. Anyone can nominate someone but make sure they are willing to do this before you nominate them and they must be a registered user. Once we get 10 then we are done. I will give them 3 days to go out and take a photo of anything. Then email it to me at rexdpc(at)gmail(dot)com. I will post them here and will need everyone to post a vote. The photo with the most votes after the given closing time wins the free membership.

Nominees(so far):

1: gaurav (Entry Received)
2: dixonp1 (No Entry)
3: Wildshutter (Entry Received)
4: NstiG8tr (Entry Received)
5: saurabhv (Entry Received)
6: mark_u_U (Entry Received)
7: booboo_goon (Entry Received)
8: rockchic3000 (Entry Received)
9: Citadel (No Entry)
10: Jimbo_for_life (Entry Received)

List is full.

1st Place: A Gift Subscription from rex
2nd Place: A Gift Subscription from ericwoo

Get people to nominate another user for it.

Once you have 10 names, pick one out of a hat/ pot/ bag

That does seem to be the usual best course of action. The self nominations don't go so well. (rose, anyone?)

could always have a shoot off the person with the best pick in 2 days gets it?

I like the best photo idea. Think we can get 10 participants? Maybe we can have the 10 participants email me their photo and I will post to keep it random and let everyone decide on which photo is best by a vote?

should probably set a few parameters and see what happens
10/25/2007 08:22:28 PM · #7
Best photos within a time frame, like the challenges, or best in our portfolio?
10/25/2007 08:22:54 PM · #8
You could offer it to the registered user who scores highest in this weeks open challenges and who has entered 20+ challenges...or something like that

ok we need 10 registered users to speak up that are willing to go out and get a photo and allow me to upload it just so we can keep it anonymous.

Hows that?

Sounds like a great plan. I have a nominee in mind, just waiting to hear back if he is willing to do this.

I would like to nominate dixonp1 for this free membership. I have received a PM from him that he is more than willing to shoot for this contest.

I have nominated him because he has a very nice bunch of challenge entries, he is active on this site and in the forums. He has been around DPC since the end of 2003. Lets give this user a chance to become a member.

you already have a membership :P

Just an idea,

Have a mini competition, and the highest score on a set challenge gets the membership.

Not sure if this fits your philosophy though.

(edit: nevermind, just saw it was suggested!)

just to add a little confusion to this thread I have a copy of the NZ Camera 2007 book it is a coffee table high quality publication showing the best of Psnz members work.
I would like it to go to a good home I would like a donation to the Animal shelter or The Spca in California equal to the cost of postage .
This book retails here for $NZ 75.00.

Just a little something I can help the fire victims pets

I have someone in mind that is NOT a registered user .... yet. If I can get him to be a registered user and he's willing I'll nominate him. He has some amazing photos and would do well here on DPC. I've mentioned it to him once already. I won't see him til next Tuesday though so if you don't have 10 by then and he's willing then I'll post here or PM you.

Do you have a timelimit on when you need to get this done by?

I nominate Wildshutter, last challenge excluded, he's not too bad. (Of course he is my hubby so I have to say that). I feel bad for him because I have a membership and we just gave our son a membership C4Pictures for his birthday, and poor hubby is left out in the cold :-)

Anyway, hope it's ok to nominate family.

You know, I wonder, if people want to give free memberships, start a private contest and give the membership to the winner.

Say, you have 5 people lined up you’d think membership worthy, and tell those people to enter at least one challenge the week of “whatever”, and whoever gets the most point, takes the membership. Of course that winner would be only a registered user, and never had membership before.

What'ya'll say :)

i'm a registered user that's willing
