<p>Here's the "wednesday" only picture thread rules at nikon forum.</p>

<p>Thank you for the guidelines, but looking at the top of this page it clearly says Pentax, not Canon, Nikon, Leica, etc. Nikon et al. have rules that work for those forums, and I think it's great. However, we are hammering out some not too overly stringent guidelines here with some open feedback based on the participants of this forum.</p>

<blockquote>I posted 5 once & a couple pentaxians flip'd out so I no longer post pix here in the weekly or monthly and soon I guess daily picture threads some are lobbying for.</blockquote>

<P>

BTW, can you point us to the POTW where you are brow beat for posting 5 photos? I don't really recall you ever posting photos despite several members telling you we'd be happy to have your Canon and Nikon photos involved in the POTW!

<P>

I am willing to bet IF it happened you posted 5 shots of Canon gear taken with your Pentax? Nothing wrong with that, but it sort of isn't what most people want to spend 4 mouse scrolls getting past. Had you posted 5 quality shots of Yellowstone from any camera, I bet you not a single person would have complained!

<p>Updated totals for the top 4 vote getters:</p>

<p>Photos:</p>

<ol>

<li>15</li>

<li>12</li>

<li>17</li>

<li>2</li>

<li>more than four = 3 votes</li>

</ol>

<p>Because I find the submissions to usually be more of a "photo essay' from many members of their weeks adventures, I'm down for:<br /> 3</p>

<p>If it were a competition, then one would make more sense. But it's not, just us sharing a few of our best. Doesn't mean that we have to post 3 if we only have one good shot worth sharing. Just a max of 3. Also doesn't mean we have to add photos every week.</p>

<p>I'm not enjoying the tone of things here lately and am in firm agreement with Markus Maurer and Michael Elenko. Lets get things back on track here.</p>

<p>τρείς (3)<br>

for this reason: "I also seem to sometimes have a group of 3 that is better than a single photo."</p>

<p>3.</p>

<p>(i tried posting that a minute ago but it doesn't seem to have gone through. sorry if it's a repeat.)</p>

<p>Photos:</p>

<ol>

<li>15</li>

<li>12</li>

<li>19</li>

<li>2</li>

<li>more than four = 3 votes</li>

</ol>

<p>Ok, I'm closing this with the final tally above. I will post some guidelines for the POTW hopefully at some point before the next POTW.</p>
