10 Years

The end of the July contest will mark 10 years of monthly photo contests at Chameleon Forums!

It was never my intention for the contest to last this long, but it has been a lot of fun and I hope it continues for many years go come. Since the contest started we have given out over 370 photo contest medals to more that 240 different people. We are going to have a special contest to celebrate the anniversary, but I've decided to put that on hold until August or September. We have some big site upgrades planned for later this month and we're going to be busy dealing with that.

Wow! Congrats and a big thank you for all your work on the Forum!

Comparing the original size of each image can help and is recommended. Photos should not only be judged by the chameleon displayed, but also on composition and image quality.
