Existing Weekly Photo Challenges

There are a number of existing Weekly challenges on Ipernity.

Can we create a list of these and whether they are public or by invitation only.

e.g.

Happy Fence Friday - Public open to all.

11 comments - The latest ones

Why not ! We can list some of the most popular ones known to us, I can think of 6. I'm thinking along the lines of finding one that is not in use anymore and perhaps adopt that. The problem will be trawling through the many thousands of abandoned groups to find one.
I,ve counted 12 so far that mentions the day of the week.

Colin - Perhaps you could gather all the weekly groups mentioned here in comments so far, and edit your discussion here to include that list. That would make it easy to see if something has already been mentioned.

Just an idea.

I find it very hard to do weekly challenges. I'm happy to work on this monthly/quarterly challenges!

I know of:
'Saturday Self-Challenge'
'The Sunday Challenge'
'Macro Mondays'
'Bokeh Thursday ~ check weekly' (not active)
'Orange Thursdays' (not active, though people sometimes add a photo
'Fence Friday (Not the Original)' - people still add to it, but i don't think there's an active admin

Poor Tuesday and Wednesday, they don't seem to get a group, ha!

Worth considering Isabel, I will circulate the suggestion for others to comment.

There are a number of groups with the word "week" in them, don't know if any of them are actively being administered.

I found 12 weekly challenges, many have been inactive since 2014. I searched mentioning the day. Because there are several choices of subject in the quarterly group and assuming you would have more than one upload for each subject, for me that would substitute weekly but without the deadline pressure.

Not exactly topical comment, but I mention this here anyway. There are several new and old tricks for group admins:

1) As a new tool, the group administrator now finds a feature on group setting to send an ipernity mail to all group members (+ co admins and mods) at once. Useful tool to make sure that all members get the news.

2) Thanks to Rob, there is link to group rules below the group about description. Might be useful to remind members on it.

3) As one may have discovered already, one can keep the image private, and then share it on the group only. That way the contribution becomes seen in the group context only, and only the other group members can comment.

4) At Macro Dreams the keywords and group search are used creatively. So, one can ask members to use certain keywords, and even allow contacts to add keywords to make sure they become used. For example one could then give link to search results like abstract. The keyword search is not case sensitive. So, also the cases for "Abstract" will become listed. More examples can be found at Macro Dreams group.
