    It's in Game Over now and only got 10 thanks so they didn't gain much from it.

    I've posted a couple of comps as a newbie. For me I felt a need to 'pay my way' and contribute, rather than just use other people's added comps. I did search them first and try to mimic the format I had seen on other posts though. So perhaps people are just keen to help out and get carried away on a wave of enthusiasm? :)
    Thanks to all posters!

    The search can be iffy, it just depends how the OP has phrased the prize in the title.

    I've often found it doesn't always show up first time, but if I search by the company/website involved that will often bring it up as already posted.

    But any post that starts 'hey guys (and any other OTT greeting) just gets bypassed...:)

    Surely a comp for a service like this and being bumped by the same person isn't self promotion :rotfl:
