Picture Post of the Month !
Ok, basically this is what happened. Member of the Week was a good concept, in my opinion, but I was completely unable to maintain it, given my intense workload. So I'm changing it to "Picture Post of the Month". Soon, the GIOP will turn into the Academy Awards of Photography. Called the "Ansys" or the "Leibowitzys". Whatever. Basically, I just changed it because this would be easier to judge and maintain. So here are the rules.
-Every month, I will go through all the picture posts submitted for critique in the main forum and choose the 5 best picture posts. Then, I will post links to them here, and open a poll. The first post to get to 15 votes wins the prize of $1000.
-I would have other categories such as Critiquer of the Month, but I really can't. It's as simple as that. Sorry.
-I will judge the posts on creativity and technique. Any posts that fail to comply with the rules will not be considered for the prize.
The Final Five for the Month of February will be announced on the first Sunday after February 29th.
