If I recall correctly, we have attempted things like this before, but no one really seemed to keep interest in it. Nice idea, just not practical here really. If Will should come up with some sort of plug-in/add-on that can make this an easier thing, then who knows, maybe it could be attempted down the road.

It would have to be something, where we can have a section with a picture or 2 of our car, and a button to vote or something. lol

Who knows.

This is a simple game, read the rules and the previous posters challenge, go for a drive, take a pic, and post it with a new challenge for the next person. My phone is set up to automatically upload pictures I take with it to my photobucket account and gives me the HTML code to copy and paste the image onto the forum! No computer necessary! I've done this kinda thing before, it's fun! I'm game as soon as the sun comes up! People, be creative, but not too creative! The point of this is too keep it going, so be realistic with your challenges! :D

BERETTA CYPHER!
Well I may not be able to do this, as I'm still having trouble uploading photos to the site.
I wait an hour, and 1 pic won't upload. IDK why, makes me quite mad.
I post all my pics on flickr, takes like a minute to upload 20 new shots.
Good idea, but I just don't see it happining, look at the calendar, we barely got that goin' right now...!
We will though, I hope.

This.

If we were a honda, mazda or subaru site, then yeah, this would work nicely. Unfortunately our member-base isn't all that big. As 2.2 said, we barely have enough pics submitted for a calendar and nowhere near the amount I got last year, sadly.

Believe me, If I thought that a photo game like this were feasable, I'd be ALL OVER it. :D

We have done this exact thing before and it was cool... for a few days and then everyone stopped caring.

But, let's see how long this one lasts! Next to a lake? PBSH! How about ON a lake?!?

Image

Okay, so it's not a new photo, but it is damn cool. As I did not take this pic after the challenge was posted, the intial challenge of near a lake/river still stands.

The cogs in my mind are turning with this pic. If this shot was closer, shot from a much higher angle looking down at the car with no trees or grass, only ice in the background it would look EPIC! I would SO love to take that shot!
