Photography Question 

Sharon Day
 

Digitalphotocontest.com shuts down


I heard through the grapevine that DPC has quit. This is interesting. I never entred a photo at DPC. I like BP much much better. I prefer my images being judged by professional photographers and not volunteers. I wonder what this will mean for BP? Maybe more business? :)

  I was a member at DPC... that's where I got my start online and where I learned at least half of what I know about photography! The management was no good, but I met some really great fellow photographers who helped me out a lot and remain good friends...

Some of the photographers may increase their entries here at BP, but digitalimagecafe.com seems to be where most of the former DPCers have migrated to. There's a big long thread about DPC's closing there.

  Thanks, Nancy! This is interesting as well. I have never entered another contest outside of BP, but I enjoyed looking at POTDs at DPC.

  Nancy, off the subject here, how do you create links on this forum? I noticed you were able to do it.

Thanks

  I can't answer this question for sure, David, but I think it's probably done by HTML code. Google it and you'll find sites that tell you how to enter a link.

  Here's a tutorial. Go down to "Adding Links to Other Pages."

  Thanks Nancy! I actually know HTML, though I am probably very rusty! ;-) I know on some forums HTML doesn't work, so I just wanted to make sure that we could use straight HTML here. Thanks again!
