New CONTEST JUNE 1-JULY 31

[performance]

Nothing counts until the 1st. That's the rules. I'll delete all the posts and restart it on the 1st. But use this time to clarify and ask questions. I thought most things were pretty clear, but its impossible to gauge human reaction.

Again to summarize:

You must make 60 posts during the 2 month time period to meet the minimum qualification for one entry. You can enter the competition any time, but you will only qualify after 60 additional posts are completed by the end of the contest

State your current post count
Posting officially starts the 1st. Tomorrow.
Post already made don't count. You can repost some project material but a project entails MORE than one picture and DETAILS. IF you repost, you must include more information if possible. The idea of the project is to give others ideas and help welding and fabricating so they can improve their welding skills and knowledge. Share, and play it forward. That's the idea. That's the rules. Period.

Posting projects, DO COUNT TOWARD THE 60. THESE NEED TO BE POSTED IN THE PROJECT SECTIONS. DO NOT PUT THEM IN THE GALLERY ONLY. YOU CAN put them in the gallery, if you like, but they must ALSO be under the "project" section with DETAILS about it.

Posting is to reenter you. You may post anywhere you like for the additional 60 posts. They may or may not include projects. A person can qualify for the competition ONCE without any projects posted. A person with 3 projects that are included in the 60 posts will have a total of 4 entries. 3 projects + 1 60 post count entry=4 qualifiedentries. 3 Project and 50 posts=0 qualified entries. Once 60 posts are achieved, it gives you the minimum you need to qualify...IF you already have projects, those are automatically included. Its actually very simple, but don't overthink it. 60+ posts ARE required to meet the minimum standards. It does not have to come first, but you must have 60 additional posts by the end of the competition. 60 posts is your buy in so to speak. If you don't have it, you won't be seated at the table to play for the big prize.
