Hi Vickie,
It’s now April 5th and finally we have a winner of the February 2019 wildlife category announced on FB! There’s no mention of any runners up, or indeed any publication of their photos. I fear that interest in this competition will inevitably and slowly decline unless:
a) JY release the monthly winners and runners up - together with their entries - in a much more timely manner. There were instances during last year’s competition when two months of results were announced simultaneously, with the consequence that the first of those two results was published well over two months after the category had closed!
b) The result is announced here on the community forum in the appropriate section. Not everyone is fixated by social media, least of all FB, so it seems strange that February’s result (such as it is!) should appear there before being released on the community page. I was under the (obviously mistaken) impression that the forum was the main tool for customers to interface with JY, and vice-versa, so it would seem entirely reasonable to expect the monthly winner to be announced on this platform.
In addition, you posted yesterday that you would be announcing the result on the forum today. So far, it has failed to materialise! Last but by no means least, there are no categories published for 2019 beyond April (architecture), so when can we expect any additional categories to be announced?
