Thanks for your comments Mike - you raise some valid points.
The original thread that prompted this challenge ran to about 4 or 5 pages from memory - there seemed to be lots of aspiring imagers keen to be involved. I was hoping to bring things into a common forum to facilitate involvement. You are certainly right that a lot of information is contained within threads about images, however I often find it easy for good information to be lost amongst compliments - you may need to revisit an image thread multiple times to extract one pearl of wisdom. (I'm certainly not implying there is anything wrong with telling someone they have done a good job!)
The "weight class" and competition aspects were proposed in the initial thread. I had initially avoided that so that people would feel welcome. This last thread was either a "kill or cure" effort to see what the IIS community was after.
I take no offence to your comments. A public "debrief" of this might help others who take on a similar challenge on IIS or elsewhere.
Regards
DT
