Start of new QC and QC+ this Friday!

Whether you are a C:F veteran or newcomer, we are sure you will fall in love with our new Quick Challenge (QC) and Quick Challenge Plus (QC+), starting this Friday (Aug 27) !

What is QC?

(Skip to the next section if this isn't the first time you heard about QC)

QC is a short, exciting, and provocative contest that is aimed to encourage your creativity while giving you the chance to have fun and bond with other C:F members. While QC is more thought-provoking and requires more elaborate text answers, QC+ puts more emphasis on the fun element and invites you to be as artistic and creative as possible. Click here for the archive of QCs in the past. You can also check out these great videos made from the past QC winning entries.

What is new with QC this year?

While everyone is having a blast under the summer sun, the C:F team is busy plotting in a secret laboratory on how to make QC more interesting and fair for this year. :) Not really; but we did come up with the following ways to improve. If you were with us last year, we'd really appreciate your comment on these new features or policies.

1. Voting will not occur in parallel with submission. There will be two to three weeks of submission period before voting can begin.

2. Winners are decided by the youth community judges from the top ten solutions with the most votes.

3. Only photos with proper embedded EXIF data will be considered by youth community judges.

New QC and QC+ will launch this Friday (Aug 27,2010)!

Check back in tomorrow and perhaps you will get a sneak peak at the new challenges that will officially start this Friday (Aug 27)!
