Am I having a grey moment ?

How do I make it happen to get notified by mail about the way the comments thread in the weekly competition are developing. Just to observe and lurk before I participate. I am looking for the add notification button, but somehow it seems to have vanished. I only see it under the individual pictures which are submitted. It even doesn't appear after I enter a comment. I am pretty sure it was there before
Best regards,

Martin.

The comments thread in the weekly competition are in the forum and the competetition itself is in the gallery.

In the forum you set notifications either in your profile or by ticking the box just underneath the choice of smilies.

In the gallery there is a similar box to tick.

Try again, you'll find it! It must have been a blank moment.
Best regards, John

I think I know what Martin means ... If you click through to an individual competition (gallery) entry, there is a "Check this box to receive notifications" checkbox so you can be notified of comments on that one particular image. But if you back up one level, to where the competition entry thumbnails are displayed, there is also a comment box, and that one does not have the "Check this box to receive notifications" checkbox.

Thats exactly what I mean.
The thumbnail page is the usual place the judge puts his C&C. On that page there is no add Notification button.

Once you've made a comment though, doesn't the box appear under the reply pane?
Best regards, John

Nope, I've checked that, already.
