I don't think increasing the dollar amount is going to do anything. For my first GE I read the rules, and I followed them. That is the point. To the people who join and do not follow the rules they should be banned from joining in on the next one. You know what you are getting into when you join. It is time consuming, yes but it is very fun! It is not right for the person who puts in their all and then have the other buddy not do what they are suppose to (The rules say) and post some pictures and a Thank you- The smileboxes are an added bonus in my mind. I loved making mine and I love watching them, I will always roam thru the GE and look at all the smileboxes!!
