Martin P Wilson Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 I know we do it for our satisfaction but just out of interest has anyone seen buyer interest in challenge pics in the month or so after a round? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allan Bell Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Not from monthly comp. Have seen buyer interest from monthly series though. Allan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiskerke Posted March 31, 2016 Author Share Posted March 31, 2016 I know we do it for our satisfaction but just out of interest has anyone seen buyer interest in challenge pics in the month or so after a round? The solution is in the challenges thread: it shows us the gaps we have. Challenges can be very apt. ;-) wim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inchiquin Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Not sure which months and which winners (because on the old Forum): Old forum? The Challenges were never on the old forum. They didn't start until the "Let's Talk About Pics" section was introduced. Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn't start until the "Let's Talk About Pics" section was introduced. Alan Alan, You must be right. Then it's before the recorded history of this forum: I could not find them with the search function. These are the notes I made before starting this month's challenge. Because I was afraid to copy some old challenge. I have no idea how I found those then. And no time to check them now. There has been a list like this before. (We all stand on some shoulders.) wim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
