(continuation of first post)

Having multiple threads in different forums to announce a contest can cause confusion when people start posting replies - that's why forum admins merge duplicate threads isn't it ?

And rather than two separate forums why not a single "Contests and Challenges" forum, with threads for open contests being pinned?

Also, rather than having to dig down into Community/Forums or Community/Contests why.not have a direct link to a main Contests+Challenges page from the site homepage and from the main site menu ? A button with a trophy icon would be cute

Thank you for that feedback. I agree that we can do a better job at communicating and publicizing contests and challenges. I like your idea about  a main page for contests and challenges. I will get with our developers on  a link. In 2025, we plan to introduce some hashtag challenges that will take place in the galleries. The use of hashtags (#) will help tie the entries together, making it easier for members to find and explore them. This approach will also hopefully encourage more engagement by driving members to view, comment on, and participate in the challenges, creating a more vibrant and interactive community experience.
