Welcome to the Weekly SH*T List, your handy-dandy go-to list to keep current on all things challenging. The name is the acronym of the words 'So Happy It's Thursday', (SH*T). Just as everyone understands that TGIF stands for 'Thank Goodness It's Friday', Thursday's acronym is not quite as polite but as effective.
For those who are not sure what the challenges listed below are all about, just click on the link and it will bring you right to the original post that has all the rules and information needed to enter. The SH*T list only gives the ending date of the current challenges, please go through the discussion board to find challenges to be voted on. Voting can be just as important as participation and is generally the most fun and exciting part of the challenges. Don’t forget to click the link to check out the details of any challenges you are considering in case I may have messed up the dates or such.
Do not forget to check out weekly and monthly features where you can highlight your work by posting your favourite shot of the month, do a weekly flashback or tag a texture on a Thursday.
