I thought it would be cool to have a page that presented all the new PB's for that week, or in the last 7 days. Everyone, who got a new personal best in their score would get their photo on that page for 7 days or so. That way, even the beginners would have something to work towards, and be rewarded for.

It could be an added gallery if it's not too hard to code querying the database to update the contents.

I agree that it's a great idea though.

Best score is the only one which makes sense and is easy to keep track of. That way, even blue-ribbon winners have something to strive for.

I wanna get the first 9.x score ever! Do you think that target's a bit too high?

Great idea. Though I can't see myself getting on there anytime soon. My own Personal Best goes back about 2 years and I've never got anywhere close to repeating it.

Great idea.

One option: why not put it on the front page in place of the challenge descriptions? There is a button on the menu for that already, and a front page photo would probably generate lots of positive feedback for the people doing well.

The challenge would have to be very narrowly defined, which would make it boring to judge; so a 9 photo would have to take a narrow subject, present essentially the same thing everyone else is but do so in a way that nearly everyone agrees is unique. On top of that it would have to be technically perfect. So, yeah I think a 9 might be a bit too high. :D

Tyler, interesting idea. All I can say is "it has been added to the list"... =]

I think there should be a page for all of the DQ's from every challenge.

that way everyone would get a chance to shine... and well deserved i might add with a new PB,... even the beginners would get a chance.
