What other posting challenges can you think of?

I think it's great how well the YoP Post-a-Pic and Connect the pic threads have gone... so wondered, can you think of any similar challenges we can run?

The main criteria is it has to be FUN and accessible - so that anyone can join in and it's not some sort of 'competition' that just puts people off.

YoP is going back to it's roots of being fun n friendly, the place to share, learn and help - so we want these to be in-keeping what that ethos

Re: What other posting challenges can you think of?

We'll start a separate thread for 'post-a-pic' suggestions (as I think the list will get quite long! )

How about different types of challenges?

Re: What other posting challenges can you think of?

Well, I think a 'go-out-and-take-a-photo' challenge would be good... nothing we've taken before... but it's hard to organise that sort of thing well. How about a mini studio challenge? They're so easy to make - and the challenge can be mundane household objects (or not mundane if you have anything random and crazy!) taken in a mini stuido!

Re: What other posting challenges can you think of?

oh yes a fun mundane object thread would be cool.
eg. what interesting pictures can you take of a fork etc.

a continuing story thread with photos?
So someone starts a story with appropriate photo, then someone says what happens next and adds a relevant photo. Would that be too tricky?
