Here is a little nit-pickey....Could someone edit the topic thread title so that PHOTOGRAPHER is spelled correctly?:

Note: To enter the overall POTN Photographer of the Year 2005 contest you must submit a photo in at least one of these categories

What catagories? I have yet to be able to find a list of catagories. Can you post them or are there any?

"One of", would have been referring to the older competitions, of Landscapes, Animals, Other, and this one.

Done. It's amasing how much worse my spelling has become since I started being a mod!

As wazza says, it could be any. This was a catchall rule introduced to cover our backs. The thinking was that we might have a 'winner of winners' runoff between, say, the finalists from each of the categories.

However, I'm not going to be doing that now. I'll be having an open competition that anyone can submit to. This makes more sense, particularly as we have so many new members that join througout the year.

I've removed the rule to save further confusion.
