KEY VOTING and Mission 24 business

WOW! Lots of key interpretations!!

So, let's cut to the chase and LET'S VOTE!

Here's how we will do it this week:

BEST OVERALL:

Best photo setup:


So, let's hear what you think!!!
(both of last weeks winners didn't post this time, so you can vote for anyone who submitted a picture!)
****************************************************************

Now, a bit of Mission 24 business.

--PLEASE remember to label your pictures when you submit them!!!
Put your NAME, and the category of the challenge.

--ALSO, I have sent out several emails now. If you have NOT gotten one from me, PLEASE let me know. I know I have said this like, a hundred times, but I think we are getting close to having an accurate email list...and I have a good system in place for new joiners from now on.

--What do you guys think about us having a sidebar button to post on your blogs. I have debated over this for a while. Yay or nay? Is it something you would use or would it be a waste of time?

--also, anyone have any ideas as to how we can make posting the feature photographers easier? I realized AFTER the fact that having everyone email me their pictures would mean a LOT of time trying to save and then upload everyone's pictures...maybe I could set up a schedule and you guys could each PREPOST your interview and pictures??? What do you think?


--Just want you all to know how much I appreciate you. I am constantly coming here and feeling so inspired! You have made this blog SO wonderful by being so open to sharing your art. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.

I am SO appreciative...

Happy Monday.

AND DON'T FORGET TO VOTE!

I think a list for feature photog is great- no need to add that extra burden to you!

Best setup: April F. I loved the makeup box!

Shoutouts: Felicia, your violin is beautiful! And I really like Shelby's natural heart rock with the pretty old key. Awesome job, everyone!

I like the idea of a sidebar button, except I already use my sidebar to both display my bi-weekly picture and I link it to the blog.

I'm fine with just posting my own interview on a schedule, if everyone wants to do that...sounds simple.

I have no problem posting my own feature...anything we can do to make your lives easier I am totally for!

I would LOVE a sidebar button for my blog

SUGGESTION/QUESTION:
There are "poll" buttons...do you think that would be easier for you guys on voting days than the way you're currently voting? I haven't ever used one, so I don't know how easy they are to set up/reset, but you could have one for the "BEST OVERALL' and another for "Secondary Category" so you don't always have to change it. Then you could just have EVERYONE's name on it and we click on who we vote for. Just a thought.

Set-Up: AprilF
Overall: Jackie

I think people can be responsible to do their own feature posting.

Janelle said...

@Melanie...we talked about a poll at the beginning of voting, but there are sometimes 30 or more entries...it would be a LOT, and I don't know how many options Blogger allows.

I think a sidebar button would be AWESOME! Maybe even a separate one we could post if we win a challenge. But definitely at least a "spread the word" one.
