Just an idea – should we run a picture of the week competition?

Eye is seriously thinking of running a “picture of the week” competition.

Do you think it’s an idea with legs?

Obviously, we’d need your help to make it happen – but we suspect that when it comes to outing your competitors’ outrageously poor camera skills, contributions might be forthcoming.

Anyway, this was the one we enjoyed most last week.

It’s picture number seven in the sequence. Who knows, it might actually sell the house.

    Yes, good idea. Your articles are very texty, so a few images to brighten our day once a week would be good. Maybe doesn't just have to be pictures from property details, could be anything from our exciting days in estate agency ?.

    "love it" But I also love the opening description of the property….."The property is approached via a pathway"……What a feature! If only more of the properties in our areas had such a fantastic feature, maybe we could sell more ?

      Ah… but has it got that all-important "much-craved off street parking" that the numpties in Wirral came up with a couple of weeks ago… ;o)

    Well, picture number 7 did actually make me laugh out loud (I then had to explain it to the others, which gave away that I was 'loafing' on this website!).

    Great idea, although perhaps there should be a "picture of the week" and an "easy property picture of the week" competition…There's bizarre pictures a plenty on that site.

    It isn't the TV watchdog that's probing Sarah Beeny, is it? Hope that one has teeth. This one looks nice and friendly. Could it audition for Downton? I gather there may be a doggone vacancy soon…

    Excellent idea. We once went to take measurements of a house but the tenant had clean forgotten we were coming, so the house was a mess. To save going back again my man did the best he could of a bad job, we printed th edetailas and made sure the details and photo went onto our website – this was long before RM & Z were even heard of. About 4 days later, we had a call from the owner asking us to remove the photo of the kitchen. On closer inspection, we noticed there was a massive pink vibrator on the kitchen units. At a quick glance it was just lost among the dirty dishes, dishcloths etc, but once you knew it was there it was really obvious. I've got a couple of photos I would share … anonimously.
