I say just go through the One Pic Shot thread, look at all the pics posted in a month and just choose a good one or choose a couple good ones and then do a vote.

Thats what I do with the Acid Rain Facebook group :p

I suggest we develop a monthly theme and make it an annual calendar. that way we can plan in advance on what type of shot we want to do and aren't limited by a clock to get it done within a couple of weeks.

I say use the pics in the dio thread and that way it encourages to make dio's.:)

I think we just rename the whole site to Digler's fighting 118 and you just have to post all your shots here and drive up the traffic.
