Caimi - welcome to DPNow! Is your XZ-1 your main camera (says he who hasn't yet had a look at your profile )

I love my XZ-1 but wouldn't mind winning this.

Welcome to dpn.

I was using the XZ-1 today - I enjoy this camera very much. I have to confess though it belongs to Ann1e (my wife).

I am surprised at the amount of detail this camera gives.


Regards, Barr1e

Here is a quick reminder that there are only a few days left to have met the criteria of 10 forum posts and 5 gallery uploads this month.

Now only two days to go - if you haven't yet got involved and posted a minimum of 10 forum posts and five gallery images you will miss out on a very high chance of winning a fantastic XZ-2 - only a few dozen have yet qualified to to go into the draw!

Hi Jane,

Just comment on a few picture threads posted by other members and you will soon get the number of posts you need.

I am pretty sure that I have met the criteria to be included in the draw, but is there any way that one can check on their activity on the site?

Thank you Ian,

But goodness, I am more busy that I suspected. You don't have to rub it in, though. I know I haven't any friends!

for those having trouble seeing their forum stats......


on the top grey 'menu' ribbon, click the 2nd option in - User CP
on the next screen, literally 2 lines of text below where you just clicked, you'll find Your Profile. click that
finally, next to About Me you'll see Statistics. click that and you're there

Re: October's DPNow prize is an Olympus Stylus XZ-2

The statistics only give a total of posts. Is there anything that tells us how many posts we've made this month, and how many photos we've uploaded?

I think I've done enough to participate in this, but I'd hate to think of someone missing out because they fall one post short or something when they think they've done enough.

Re: October's DPNow prize is an Olympus Stylus XZ-2

You can see your photos posted within a set period in the gallery using the search facility here:

http://dpnow.com/galleries/search.php?cat=500

Don't put anything in the keywords box, enter your user name in the appropriate box, select 'days' and the number of days to search and make sure the 'All Categories' is selected.

For forum posts you can search within a time period here:

Thanks, Ian, that worked.

Re: October's DPNow prize is an Olympus Stylus XZ-2

Someone has emailed me to say, basically, that he doesn't want to be seen to be busy using the forum just to get a chance to win the prize. I respect that, but the point of the promotion is to get everyone to use the forum, so don't feel that you should hang back - I am actively trying to persuade new members to discover the benefits of our forum and gallery and to coax existing members back to rediscover things here.
