I could see them using the email used to set up the account. In the past, users have won that don't frequent BYC. So, if they post or PM them, they may not even be aware they won the contest. By sending an email, they are more sure that the person is aware... Just a thought.
Not a bad idea, but I personally like having the judges choose the pictures for this particular contest for some reason. Haha. It makes it seem more like an Olympic event or something! :)
Thanks! I also haven't had the chance to go through and see all of the pictures in the thread. This would give us all a chance too "ooo and ahhhh" at the pristine poultry pictures taken this year (even if they don't make the calendar) :).
@Nifty-Chicken , would it be possible to post the top [(fill in number here, maybe top 30?)] pictures so that we can see the photos still in the running for the 2016 calendar contest? This would definitely build the anticipation and excitement for the calendar release date!
Thanks! Yes, they are (from L to R) Silver Laced Wyandotte, Cuckoo Marans, White Leghorn French Black Copper Marans cross, Speckled Sussex, Speckled Sussex, and White Leghorn French Black Copper Marans cross.
