Even though I'm not in it at the moment, I don't think the rules should be changed.
Pictures should be taken after the theme is announced.

Exceptions often become the thin edge of the wedge.

A rule change should be properly discussed and voted on; otherwise you're away to the races.

You're right Reinardina. I hadn't read the rules properly. The theme can be announced any time after the previous poll closes up until midnight on the Thursday. But all photos must be taken on either the Friday, Saturday or Sunday.

My silhouette entry with the cat was actually taken on the Monday morning oops
but now I realize that only submission is allowed up until midday on the Monday

Sorry guys I was a little confused

Small correction: the pictures can be taken any time after the theme has been set, but before Sunday night.

They used to be restricted to Fri ,Sat, and Sun, but that rule has been eased. (Officially!)
