I really don't think that there is a lack of interest. It's where it is and how buried the thread becomes. People don't dip all the way down to the photography contest. Lately the only forums that are really seeing any action is the New Hobbyist and The Aquarium. The contest needs to stay at the top of the "New Posts" page so that more people know about it. I didn't even vote this much because the thread got so buried.

was gonna skip a month or 2 due to lack of interest....and I have no way to sticky it up top
That's good for me. My tank is on its way to looking pretty. I still have some work to do on the sea horse tank.

WELL it seems we have a 3 way tie SOOO
congratulations to Xcali985, pbnj and siptang
We are going to take a break due to lack of interest...BUT we are going to try to come up with something else....if you have any ideas, please let us know
For me it is a lack of interest. I enjoyed the species/ themed (mushrooms, zoa's, etc...) contests more.
Lets do a single video contest, less than 1 minute. Youtube uploads only that way when you post them you can use the video embed and it will work just like the pictures.
I think even without the prizes, we should start this thing again.
Just to get more people involved and others inspired and motivated and to get fresh new ideas that they can incorporate into their tanks.
