3 Weeks for DW

[matopia]

So, I thought it would be cool if the community did something for the event starting on Monday: Three Weeks for Dreamwidth.

Here are my ideas, please comment with thoughts or your own ideas. Since it's cutting it close, I'd like to make a decision by Saturday night, so hopefully we'll get some input. (:

IDEA 1: Have folks sign up who wish to participate in a 3 week (21 days) posting mania. Basically, whoever signs up agrees that they will post 1 photo a day for the three weeks (doesn't have to be newly taken photos, but it would be nice if some 'newly taken' were mixed in).

There will be an incentive. To those who DO sign up, and DO complete the challenge, they will all get 30 dreamwidth points. Pretty much, there would be a 24 hour window to sign up (Sunday), and then after that ... folks can still post for fun, but won't be eligible for the 30 points.

IDEA 2: Since some folks are rather busy and may not be able to post every single day, we can do a bi-weekly photo post in the 3 weeks. Folks can post a photo twice a week (days of their choosing).

IDEA 3: Have the two options above running. One has more 'work' involved, obviously, and that's why I am awarding points to those who choose to sign up for that one.

Thoughts? Other ideas?

Also, I think this will be great to get folks posting photos, and getting each others input. I think a lot of us like to hear what others think about our photos ...I could be wrong though (:

I think it's a great idea!

I like option 3 best, that way if people are busy and aren't able to do the photo-a-day, they can still participate. I


This will motivate me to sort through all the pictures I keep taking!

I agree ... I am liking having both running. Thanks for commenting! :D Can't wait to see your photos (:

I would actually try the photo-a-day thing (especially for points, lol) but I'm going on vacation next week and the hotel doesn't have free wi-fi access so I'd miss a week. I can do the bi-weekly thing though! I think option number two is overall more flexible for people and would probably get a better turn-out. I could be wrong though.

Does Dreamwidth have a delayed post function thingy? If so, you could prep and host your images in advance and have them show up on cue, like magic, while you are offline.

I didn't even think of that! It looks like maybe it does since there is a little "edit" link next to date when you post. Thanks for the idea I may use that :)

I also think option 2 might get more people participating, but it would be nice to have both options available.

Oh I like all the options. 1 is a nice challenge.

I have a one track mind: I opt for option one!

I do like Idea 1, but I am unsure I would be able to participate in it myself. I vote for Idea 3!
