Weekly Competition #70 - Transport

Posted 03/11/2008 - 14:50 Link
Was sat on the train this morning trying to think of a decent topic for this weeks competition, and thought hey why not "transport". I thought that it would be interesting to see what everyone comes up with, not to mention what obscure types of transport! Something a little outside the box (i.e. not just a pic of a bus) will get more points

Good luck, and I will try and be prompt with judging.

Good subject. We will see if we can come up with some new shots this time. I think it was JR who took the crown last time link

Hi All

Could someone plz enlighten me as to how I go about entering these competitions.. or perhaps point me to a thread telling me how..

Or am I asking something that should be obvious again?
Pentax K7 and K5 and several black tubey things with magnifying glass in that twist around and move in and out - to be honest I am not sure exactly what I have. Will list the proper names one day..

In the navigation bar you see on the top of the site
Gallery>Competitions>click on the current competition and you will see where to click on next
or just simply click here for a direct link (this week only though)
Hopefully that will do it and don't upload anything better than me now
Stefan.

Pete,

Something has changed and the 'Upload' button or whatever it was called has disappeared. I notice that the new post flags dont work any more and that when you click on a tag eg. 'architecture' you are taken to a page with the latest gallery submissions.

I really thought all this was sorted

Things change. Mistakes happen. Someone probably screwed up a line of code.
Anyway, write a report if you haven't already and I'm sure their fingers will be appropriately broken for the indiscretion.

he, he, Not the first time I've heard that.
While in software quality assurance I was not on the 'favorite' list of many of the people I worked with. I often went around and broke fingers - metaphorically speaking, of course.

If I look at some pieces of software I wonder if breaking some necks would be more appropriate

Oh no not another one - the Bill Payer is in QA too. First as an auditor but now as the (contracted) in-house expert.

It is difficult to imagine that anyone would own up to working in QA
