Ha, ha. I agree that it is more "DPC like", but the more than 10 year old code has become unmaintainable (my guess is that is also the case with the current DPC code). Will the beta-version of DPC ever become a production version? In this modern world DPC looks like a very outdated site (talking about the layout, not the content)

I tried in Safari and Google chrome also

Thanks for mentioning. Seems to be an expired SSL-certificate. Unfortunately I'm not allowed to fix that myself. I'll contact a support department asap.

Support department reacted very fast!! Problem should be solved now

I think we're actually quite cool now. In a retro way we're unique and stand out in a positive way.

Thank you Henk-Jan for your tireless service to our DPC community! Like Wendy, I am indebted to you and your "unofficial ribbon race" for keeping me going and submitting when I would've slacked off without this extra motivation. Looking forward to the 2024 race!

Congratulations to all of the participants!

Kudos to the Top Ten!!

So much talent in this place!

I apologize for not entering as much as usual in 2023.

I was on cruise ships for 170 days. Then, add in the travel time before and after and... well...

I might have an addiction. :D

Anyway, I was pleased to enter the ones I could while only having a cellphone the entire time.

I love the Points Race. I would not have entered even as little as I did, if it weren't for the Points Race!

Thanks bunches, Henk-Jan!

thank you so much Henk-Jan for creating the ribbon race .. :)

like other ppl it has kept me entering when i probably wouldnt have ..
although dpc alone does that for me .. just being here .. it feels a bit like home ..

also .. i cant believe i've come second .. i think there's something screwy going on in the universe .. there are much better photographers who deserve that ribbon more than me .. and not to sound like a dummy .. but i dont understand all the numbers etc here ..

anyway .. thanks so much to everyone for walking this path with me .. xxxx

edit to say .. CONGRATULATIONS TO THE OTHER RIBBON WINNERS AND EVERYONE WHO DID WELL ..
i should have said that earlier .. but i've got my grandson staying and its quite distracting .. ;)

It's been fun, but I need to run. :-)
Seriously ... DPC is starting to get in the way of some priorities I need to make at home for a while.
But, I'm not going away. Sorry, can't get rid of me that easy. :-) I'll still enter challenges, just not EVERY ONE of them!
I'm addicted. Can't quit cold turkey. :-P

It will be interesting to see how the Ribbon Race plays out. I'd put my money on Larry, but Mark is the dark horse. :-O

Ha. Too many talented photographers above me and too few challenges left to take a serious run at it. I would need them all to stop entering through the end of the year, and I still might not catch you.

Not me. Like my golf game I blow hot and cold! Every bird in my backyard sees me coming with my camera now and flies in the opposite direction:(

If I even think about taking a picture of a flower the wind starts blowing -- I've considered renting myself out to a wind farmer as "insurance" ...
