The reality is the audience pool for participation is very small on CD, much smaller even than the number of members suggests. So it is always going to be an uphill battle for participation.

Here's the thing we learned from cc. We had to actively push it and try generate hype, we got judges, participated in supporting each and every wip thread with at least one comment, and then gave crits to everyone at the end. All that effort and entries still only barely got out of single digits some months, though had great participation on others.

This is the struggle with getting artists on forums to participate without any incentive or hype to push it. It's probably not really a lack of time issue for most. You give people a month, they'll take the whole month to do sweet fa

Well, we did have a few participants... maybe you could give us some more time. I know I'll finish my entry for this one before I move on to something else

How about thinking of a proper, interesting brief for CHOW instead of a vague, cliche theme?

Crimson CHOW 22 resulted in 'No Contest'. Next challenge will be up on April 28, 2017.

Aaargh! Never enough time in the day - got a load of chores to do before I can sit down and load some art! By then it'll be bed time :(

You'd think with internet becoming more and more standard globally, these artists would all converge in the most affordable living environment and work via communication.
