As is often said, thanks to those who work so hard to make this site work. All are outstanding photographers and post inspiring photos that are not eligible to recieve the yearly EPA awards.

May I suggest that an end-of-year honorary award be given for the best picture, or the best picture posted in each forum, taken and posted by a moderator or someone on staff. Winners to be picked by NPN members.

Thoughts and ideas from staff and members appreciated.

I second your idea. The moderators of the galleries I visit regularly certainly post very inspiring and informative posts on a frequent basis. I am certain this is true in the other galleries as well. In addition they attempt to comment on almost all posts. This must be a daunting task. I think it would be wonderful to recognize their hard work. Now how do we accomplish this?

Without a doubt, the NPN moderators are a HUGE factor in making this site as good as it is. Their photography is indeed inspirational, which is the reason we maintain the Staff Showcase Gallery so that their favorite photos are easy to find. This gallery can be found in the Staff and Galleries menus at the top of the page.

So here is to the NPN moderators for their time and effort on behalf of all NPN members! :toast:
