Competition Threads
Discussion
Hi,
I thought people had made the decision to have all the competition threads under one stickied post??
So why is the photo competition thread stickied a the top, but the photoshop competition and chat are hidden away in the other sticky??
Also, the photoshop competition links are old, and the new ones need adding to the sticky.
We should just go back to the old way of having 4 stickys at the top of the page for the 4 competition threads, it was way easier.
Anyway, someone please get the new photoshop competition threads stickied into the competition thread:

I thought they weren't going to be stickied anymore and that seems fair enough - they get enough traffic to self-elevate during the month.
I didn't ask for the photo comp thread to be stickied, someone just did it. As for the multi-purpose photo comps thread at the top that <i>should</i> be stickied, it's a wiki so you should be able to edit it yourself

the wiki idea is rubbish tbh, doesnt work. What did work was having just the one monthly comp and having that sticky.
The photoshop comp then became a bi-monthly thing with sticky after sticky dedicated to it as the previous one wasn't pulled down.
Putting them in the wiki made it hard for a web and ph veteran like me to find, let along first time browsers that might have a go.

But there will only ever be 2 competition thread running and two chat threads...
If the 2 entry threads were sticky, and they had links to the chat threads in them i thing that would be better.
Also, that link in the wiki to 'Minimans photo comp website' should be taken down. It's not been updated for years, and it's the first link on the page, so it detracts from the competition threads.

Yeah, I know, it needs updating. I will get round to it. Although not sure it is "years" 
This is the problem with things that are done voluntarily, they tend to take a back seat behind things like, ooh, having a baby. Actually it is nearly a year since I updated it, which is pretty slack. I consider myself duly chastisedETA - of course, being a Wiki, you could remove the link if you wanted. And I could put it back

So how come the photo competition thread is STILL a sticky, but the photoshop competition thread isn't???
If we're keeping the 'new format' of having them all in one thread, then that's how they should be!
(even though since we did it the amount of photoshop competition entries has dropped substantially)
