The amount of entries we have been getting in the competitions has been dropping lately same with the voting
so i was just wondering if it was worth carrying on with them are you getting board with them should i end them ?
with the amount of members on the site i would expect a lot more to enter and vote
it only takes minutes to upload and seconds to vote.

I thought the last one had a decent number of votes? Lisa had 6 to win it and IIRC there were 19 in total?

Katex is now on the case so thats another 4 entries

Sorry but i dont think 19 votes out of over 11,000 members good

11K active users? Don't think so

How many distinct users over a week, thats a more realistic number.

Take from that all the Stanley boys and I reckon your talking more like maybe 100 users tops?

I really enjoy the photo competition and would be sad to see it go. Although I agree that it would be nice to have more entries and voters, the ones who do use it seem happy enough.

After all, not everyone is interested in photograpy.

I always vote and I always participate...please don't abandon this comp. I enjoy it and wish more people would take an interest in it.

did i say active users NO, even so there are a lot more that could enter and vote
19 votes and uploads is perthetic.

Maybe you could add some Mick

We never see you entering, and don't give me the "I run it bit" I used to run it and entered my pics
