The house spider didn't keep its distance from the daddy long legs spider and paid the ultimate price.

Thank you... I think.... I have no idea how to set this up. Are there any instructions anywhere?

You pretty much just think of a theme (any theme, but preferably not one on this list that's been done before) and then post a new thread like this one for people to post their entries into. You could even copy the text from the first post in this thread and then change the theme and description on the first line. Change the date for one a few days away to give people time to enter a photo, and job's a good'un.

 

[Stegosaurus]

Ok, sounds simple enough. How many days are normally allowed for posting? A week or so? And how do I link to the discussion thread? I'm new here so I've never done a link.

 

[simon ess]

Normally a week for posting and three days for voting.

Open discussion thread in a new tab, copy the URL from address bar. Paste it into your opening post. Or, I think, copy everything from the first post of this thread and the link will be copied too. Make amendments as necessary

 

[Carl Hall]

And how do I link to the discussion thread?

If you copy the text exactly from the first post in this thread, it should copy the link too

Great, thanks both. I'll see what I can do.
