Lets work on the next contest, and we are also interested in donations for prizes.

I like the vivarium build but it should have a start date for anyone wanting to participate and give a month or two for it to grow in. I think its a fair competition for everyone. The photograph competitions are hardly fair as it seems to always be someone with a $1000+ camera set up.

We could do a phone camera only contest.

That would be a cool idea

 

[GRIMM]

Tank for sure.. Not everyone has a nice camera or phone that takes picture (my phone blows lol)

 

[ryan10517]

we could do a coolest DIY project contest. i would come up with something nifty for that.

 

[rcteem]

We should all start a build on the same date though cause a tank started a month ago will look better by the time the contest ends

how about best diy tutorial video? you could have a time limit of like 15 minutes and let folks show how to do various tasks relevent to the hobby. when its done the top __ videos could be posted to the care sheet area. not only would it be a great contest, but it could help others wanting to do some of these projects.

i'dd like to see a vid on the flevopol root, thing (like in grimm's tank), ive been planning a how to CPU fan video (as soon as i can get the camera battery charged). there are tons of opportunities. clay BGs, homemade FF recipes, tad incubators, GS, vert conversions, DIY lighting, glowing mushrooms , the list goes on and on.

I think a DIY video might be the most beneficial to the hobby. Its can be a bit of work, but I think the members would be up for it.

 

[ChrisK]

Ah I clicked General by mistake but really wanted Species Specific

 

[Bokfan1]

I like the DIY idea...I'm sure it would be very helpful for those new to the hobby as well...

I voted for a specific species photo contest, but this is a great idea.

A $1000+ camera set up doesn't mean anything, I have one and my pictures still blow.

How far out are we talking? pumpkin carving?

Surely you know someone that would lend you an ipod, or something similar, with video capabilities?

digital cameras are pretty common these days and seem to be included on everything
