    Historically, the CIC challenge developed and stayed in the Canon Forums.
    The current, and last one in DPR, is at www.dpreview.com/forums/post/66962947
    We host the photos on pBase which works well for us.

    But we have evolved to where we are not Canon DSLR only, submitters have used Sony's and Smart Phones for instance.
    We are a small group that doesn't take ourselves seriously.

    So this is a good time to find a new home.
    In addition, I believe there are still versions of other photo sharing challenges scattered among the hardware forums.

    We could put a thread in the Challenge Forum, but it is not a DPR challenge.

    Thoughts?

    I really like the DPR challenge, and I think we should have something similar when we can develop some SW for it. In the meantime, would you like me to rename this this just 'challenges', then you can use this category to run brand neutral challenges in? You could use the poll facilities to get the result, if you wanted a winner.

    Yes - I and I think others would like to see it simply "Challenges". Right now we vote by shared spreadsheet, but that won't scale up easily for a lot of participants - it is too manual.

    The CIC Challenge runs for a week after the DPR closes down on the 10th.
    I'll post something here on the 10th and let's see how it goes.
