At this point, I don't think Member of the Month is such a bad idea, AS LONG AS it is done anonymously. I don't think we'll be able to get a contest going for THIS month, because I don't have time right now to write anything up. My hubby is leaving again in a couple of days, and I am spending as much time as I can with him before he goes. I will try to get rules and whatnot written up to launch a contest on the 15th. There will be from the 15th to the 1st to get your entries ready, then I will be accepting entries from the 15th to the 1st. Voting will run from the 1st to the 15th, at which I will post a new topic for you to get ready for. The winner will get to write a thread on how they did what they did, or about their herp, or whatever the topic may be. Bragging rights are all we can offer right now, so I hope that is good enough!

I will be happy to offer a cutting package to the winner of one of the contest each month. My choice but I am normally pretty generous.

Maybe scratch this month, insted post a thread where we can sign up to take part, kind of an attenance list, dont want you to go through the trouble of writeing up rules and regulations if your only going to have 3 members take part no? Just a thought

Jason, I think we should just jump into it. If only three people enter, that just puts the odds more in their favor. We need to get it up and running, that way people will be more likely to enter. I think we've talked about it enough! lol...

Oh, and Harry, I think that is absolutely wonderful. It is very generous of you to offer a prize. But I don't think it will be much use to you if YOU win.

sometimes it may have been attacked thread-wise by those on more complex levels of this hobby that sometimes folks get a bit on edge about "know it all's" I've seen that. Back when I started the idea of actually using a vivarium of today's standards and such from back when i was a kid building these things at 7 for my salamanders and soft shell turtles....anyway, I mentioned and pushed and wrote a paper and studied over 150 tarantula and scorpions and said "you can house a tarantula la in a fully planted vivarium with great success...". I was fround on by many of the fields top hobbyists and their "cliques". It's nothing to take serious. Say what you want, let them learn about you. share. ask a lot of questions, people like to talk, not listen...er...read.

anyway, ive got my own effects, you're might be different then what i wrote...but don't bash the best online vivarium forum. 8-)

ask for pics, great idea!!! Can I be a judge? I won't enter I promise!!!
