I vote for little challenges that take place in the forum. Just to get people out and taking pictures.
There are several reasons why I like the idea of this:1. Maximum participation. Virtually anyone will be able to play along.2. There is no long term commitment. You can participate in one challenge, miss the next one, and participate again in the one after that.3. You can use any doll you like for each challenge, which opens up a world of possibilities.4. We needn't worry about rules when it comes to wigs, etc. As long as you make the deadline, you can participate!5. Competition, while fun, can be stressful on the contestants, and can sometimes cause contentions. With no eliminations, we needn't worry about that.
P.S. I think it would be fun to post all the photos anonymously. Meaning that all the photos would be posted in one post with no member names attached to them. We could then reveal who each photo belongs to after the public poll is complete. Thoughts?
I would love to do small photo challenges. Maybe something like A Doll A Week?
Aww, thanks, guys!Don't be disappointed though. If another cycle is approved, I'm sure *somebody* would be in a position to host! And if not, I'd be happy to create little challenges for all members to participate in. How awesome would it be if we got twenty entries a challenge? Or thirty? Or forty?!
I like the idea of individual challenges as well. Are we thinking similar to the doll a week challenge, but with accompanying voting?

Something like that, I suppose. As for the time limit, I wouldn't want it to be too taxing or demanding. I was thinking maybe one challenge every two weeks. That would be something like seven days to submit your best shot, five days for voting/discussion, and then two extra days for the member with the highest amount of votes to decide on the next challenge and post it in a timely manner.Since so many members will be participating, it makes sense to allow everyone to vote for as many different contestants as they like. Or we could come up with some type of limit such as choosing your top five, etc. Otherwise it would be quite dreadful if there were 25 entries and you could only vote for one!As far as anonymity goes, I still would prefer to post photos without a name attached. I think only a small minority of members entering could have their identity revealed by a single shot, and that's really not too earth-shattering. Overall, the focus should be on the photo/model and not who is snapping the photos. Besides, I think no names offers a bit of mystique, even if some members ARE able to guess who you are! hehe
