I run the website department for IPC Media's [link] Country and Leisure division.

We're actually going to be rebuilding AP and WDC's websites in Jan - our first big project of the year. Should be much fun :)

Unfortunately I can't enter their comps, being an employee. However I did win one round of a comp in Digital Camera Magazine (for Lisa on the bed), and I've been published in Practical Photographer and Digital Photography Techniques. Just send shit in and see what happens.
