When is World Pentax Day this year 2014?
Want to see if it works for scheduling a meetup since usually it is in February?

It'll be at the beginning of the year for sure. But I want to change things up this year, since the old format of just uploading to a gallery isn't very engaging. Ideas?

Maybe mix it up with a few competition categories???

Most Pentax members in a group photo
Best macro/landscape/street/sunrise/ sunset/portrait/kids/wildlife/machinery
Humorous/HDR/BW/flower/food/film/compact/DSLR etc.

Time limit to submit, vote for top in each category then all winners compete for all around best
???

Is there any way of having it as its own layer on google earth. ie we pin our images to the relevant location.

That would be cool too. I'll see what can be done!
