# this
jobs pictures will happen anyway.. doesn't need to be a compo.

saying that; any of the suggestions could happen anyway... so my argument may not be entirely sound.

# a shame in some respects
because if they're not collected up in a challenge page then there's no proper record of them.

It's a flaw of B3ta - we miss collecting up the genuinely big photoshopping moments.

# That's a fair point
But you can run more than one challenge at a time right?

So you could ask everyone to enter their Jobs/Apple pics into a "challenge" just for the sake of collecting them, but still have a "normal" challenge for the rest of us.

PLEASE not Job's.

the internets going to be a no-go zone for anyone who dislikes apple as it is, does make b3ta the same.

# "Anyone who dislikes apple"?!
Jesus Christ - nobody on the internet knew Jobs personally, it's just fanbois posturing, using it as yet another fucking excuse to tell people that they've got Apple products, under the misguided impression that anyone at all cares.

If it were their dad they were grieving, fine, but celebrity death-cry is a bloody wankfest of buffoonery.

# ^THIS.
Sure, it's sad and all, and I do own Apple products, but I'm not going to go out into the street and carve the Apple logo into my chest shrieking 'Everybody Wants to Rule the World' by Tears for Fears, though.

Oh, and the compo would be dull. Very, VERY dull.
