Each week, one of the moderators or administrators selects an image that, for whatever reason, catches their eye. Please feel free to add your comments here. Vigorous discussion of the images and techniques is welcome and encouraged. Criticism of any mod for their choice is not. Please note that this is "Picture of the Week"; do not confuse that with "best picture of the week", which is a concept of which we have no understanding.

Excuse my ignorance, biggerry. Before I jump into conclusions, could you please explain what the list means? e.g.:
June 3 xafra52 10 bigsarg7 17 Geoff M 24 Guest Selector
Thanks

Zafra52 They are the dates of the month, (normally Tuesdays), when the named soul is to choose a POTW and post it up on the forum. It's like a duty roster, in military parlance.

Thank you Matt. So I get to choose POTW on: Mar 11 Jun 3 Aug 19 Nov 11 Good, as I haven't done it before, apart from looking at pictures and making a choice what would be the process? Is it similar to how we post images or is there a procedure I should acquaint myself with before hand?

your very special ozi  fixed up now so that august is not so special. Matt. K wrote:Zafra52 They are the dates of the month, (normally Tuesdays), when the named soul is to choose a POTW and post it up on the forum. It's like a duty roster, in military parlance. 
summed up nicely - i'll update OP shortly with instructions regarding the logistics of posting and getting the thumbnail on the portal page. zafra52 wrote:Thank you Matt.

OK, for those selecting POTW who do not have mod or key member status here is how its gonna work: On the tuesday (or before if you wish) make your selection and blurb and PM it to me and I will post into the POTW category and update the portal blah blah blah... Regarding the blurb, feel free to write as little or as much as you want, there are no rules or regs on this and its purely a personal thing, if you like to mention others which are worth contenders feel free to mention these as well. Most important of all, just enjoy it and take pride in what you like and select! If you can't do it or are gonna be lost in a Borneo rainforest just drop me or any of the other mods a PM and we will sort it out! Speaking of Borneo forests anyone heading over there?
