    when you enter a comp there is a green tick and a red cross on the OP's post. Select the cross for the ones you've done

    surely you should select the tick for the ones you do enter, and the cross for the ones you skip?! that's what I do in any case.


    As for any that should be avoided, if you have a read of the Comping Guide it contains a list of sites that are likely to lead to lots of spam etc.

    The above guide also contains lots of useful info so I'd recommend having a good read through it before you go any further, it will probably answer lots of questions for you.


    Good luck! xx
