Great,I like the Idea too. I'm haveing PC problems today. I have a render going since Friday night and my system is Groaning. I wrote a lengthy introduction to this forum and my system Crashed before I could send it. (perfect timing eh?) anyway ... I may or may not have mentioned that I sent some "Mock forms" (in Word fomat),to Jack and Ed. I'll send em off to Traveller and George to look em over( I suck at html and web design so dont expect much). one is a sign up form that basically gets your name into the pool. it also has a place to fill out other information such as applications and skill levels. another page refects the artist's current Challenge Status" and displays your statistics, and list's your applications for all to see,this is so one artist doesnt get mobbed with Challenges while others go unchallenged, Via a phone conversation Jack ,Ed and I had kicked around the Idea of having a level's system in which you would increas your level in a particular application. for example : I'm pretty good at Bryce , so I might sing up as an intermediate or advanced level. But I kinda suck at Poser so I would enter in ayt a novice or beginner level. this information could be used to further taylor the challenge..most likely I would be challenged with a Poser based project to increase my Poser skill level. now ... the people with a masters type level would be on hand as tutors for the others. this way the Masters could challenge eachother with very complicated specifications. and you would work your way up in levels this way, again we were just kicking the Idea around And I'm sure it would need some tweaking but it's really not as complicated as I may have just made it sound. The forms will be helpfull in explainging it better, but again We want the feedback of the members to help us decide on a smooth way of doing this, if we want to do it this way at all. as far as themes ... We could have a theme pool that randomly selects the theme that everyone does. and have a place to submit your Idea for a theme... Thanks again for the support everyone and spread the word. Hawkfyr
