Andy Y Posted September 8, 2011 Author Share Posted September 8, 2011 There will be a sub-forum set up and it would be preferable if a summary of the build and the best shots are included within that summary topic, as with previous challenges. If there is a need to link to off-site content so be it but some readers may not follow the links (it's a habit thing with people). 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Y Posted September 8, 2011 Author Share Posted September 8, 2011 I'l set them up after the closing date Stuart and put a note in here, and probably other places too! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly9 Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 as i asked earlier but had no reply are the rules for entry just submitting the blog or is there a form to fill in or download etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Y Posted September 8, 2011 Author Share Posted September 8, 2011 Just start a topic off in this forum area. That's sufficient to register an interest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RayW Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I just found this challenge. If there was no deadline for entering I would like to try a little uncomplicated project; a small coal transloading facility that is simple and shouldn't take more than the 2 1/2 weeks I have left. Winning is not my goal, only completing the project and showing what I have done. Ray Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
adrianboff Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Hi, I've been a bit slow in registering for this challenge ( I like trains NOT computers), I was stuck for inspiration & didn't think I'd get anything off the ground,but then I had an idea - which is nothing like what I've ended up with, but I started & I've now almost finished but suspected that my final images will be submitted by email ( I know how to do that!).

Andy Y Posted September 13, 2011 Author Share Posted September 13, 2011 my final images will be submitted by email ( I know how to do that!). That's fine Adrian, no problems at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold bcnPete Posted September 18, 2011 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 18, 2011 Andy, hi A quick question to help me with forward planning.....1st October 2011 means in reality midnight 30th September 2011, right? Do I need to put final pictures on my thread before midnight (Allowing for the 1 hour time difference in Spain of course!) or do I need to email them to you to arrive before midnight. Apologies...its just I am away all next weekend so am trying to plan working backwards from the deadine to the last hour/minute! Many thanks in advance Pete Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Y Posted September 18, 2011 Author Share Posted September 18, 2011 Yes Pete, it can be considered as such although I'm technically including 01 Oct as the last day any work should happen. Once the dealine has arrived I will then open a separate topic where entrants must confirm their entry with a link to the content. I will then build the voting structure from that. Good luck all in the final days; although certain people have still probably got time to whack out another entry. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Andy, Will the link to the content be what we've already posted or do we get to post a selection of photos on a separate thread to our main one ?

CaseyJ Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 This may sound a daft question but do we need to email our details for our entries or is the forum thread sufficient. I have had major problems with my ISP and I haven't been able to upload some of my pictures after several attempts. I don't believe it is the RMWeb site that has been the issue but a fault with my ISP. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Y Posted September 29, 2011 Author Share Posted September 29, 2011 Hi Casey, Having created a topic is deemed an expression of intent. I'll then open a topic for people to confirm that there entry is to be submitted and a forum area for people to write a summary to show their entry to its best effect (as that can get lost in a topic over time). If you do have any upload problems please email me at info@rmweb.co.uk so we can find a solution. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaseyJ Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 Thanks for that Andy. With luck I'll post my final pictures tomorrow evening but a seperate area seems a good idea having seen the length of some of the entries. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
St. Simon Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Hi, Andy, when you write a summary topic, do you have to include photos proving the dimensions or will it do if you summit a link to your building thread that has photos with proof of dimensions (Which I do) Just a check so I know which photos to include! Bring on tomorrow! Simon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Y Posted September 30, 2011 Author Share Posted September 30, 2011 I'm happy for the original topic to provide evidence of the size; it's not mandatory to include it in a summary topic. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium PaternosterRow Posted October 2, 2011 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 2, 2011 Hi Andy Firstly, just like to say this competition has been fantastic, the level of entries are extremely high. For someone who lives out of the way in Southern Ireland, RMweb is a lifeline and it is a great way to keep in touch with current trends and also with help etc. Thank you for your continued dedication. Secondly, as a complete ludite with regards computers, can you explain how we create the links. I've done it before, but it was by complete accident and I'm a bit lost with the process. Also why do we have to insert it twice? Sorry to be a pain. Regards Mike Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
