Photo Competition 1

[K.S.H]

1st lets just confirm the rules:
Each competition will run for 4 weeks, 3 weeks for uploading pictures and 1 week for final votes.
THIS is the link to the competition pages
During the 3 week uploading time you will be able to vote and there will be an option to cancel your vote if you feel a better picture has been submitted.
After the 3 week upload period, voting only will be allowed for 1 week then voting will be stopped.
Closing date for entry is 4th April, voting will close on the 11th April
Anyone can vote, you don't have to enter the competition to be entitled to a vote but it is 1 vote per person

The winner will get to choose a theme for the next competition ( You won't need to do anything else, the moderators will create the folder to be uploaded too)

In the event of a tie the person who chose the theme will decide on the winner

2 entrys are allowed per person (this could change, we'll see how it goes 1st) Any more than this will be removed, your 1st 2 uploads will stay - later ones will be removed

All images must be your own work, scanned, digital, phone, video stills are all allowed, please dont use images off the web or from mags as we dont want Accyweb getting into trouble for hosting copyright images. You will retain copyright of all your images.
Photo's altered with image editing software will be allowed

I thought that but I can't find them Found one so I'm gonna put that up and i'll take one specially for the comp later in the week.

Just a thought Len, if we change our mind can we delete the photo's and upload another?

[K.S.H]

Mines in but the software doesn't half change the colours, see the image below, its the image opened in editing software and same image in browser from Accyweb

[entwisi]

yeh, I plan on taking something specially later on. The other was a must as soon as I saw teh subject!

I’m afraid not, well not at the moe and to be honest I can’t see that option being added. If everyone were to start remove photos willie nillie it could create chaos in the gallery .i.e comment/posts looking silly etc.

Photos added to the member’s Galleries, personal Albums can be removed and changed by the members at any time.

If someone makes a mistake uploading or is not happy about an uploaded photo then they should contact a mod and then it will be looked into.

I think in this case if one makes a mistake then they get no votes. Hehe

Perhaps we could increase the number of entries per member? This would also make the album more interesting to view.


Anyhow I’ve got my first one in so get voting.

Can the pic be one that was taken in the past or do the photo's have to be taken in the month that the competition runs?........don't know if that is a daft question.

Just a thought, I wasn't too happy about the colour of mine, it changed so much when I uploaded it, i'll submit them a bit brighter next time

[entwisi]

Not cheated, just used something I took before.

As long as its your own work I see no reason not to use something you took 1 week, or 10 years ago

[Margaret Pilkington]

Thanks for that info K.S.H. and also for the instructions on how to post pics to the competition......I'm just going to have a look at what I've got and will be post a pic soon.

It would certainly have been red if you took the pic 500 yards further down the street

I’ve just been told that you can actually edit the photo or should I say replace it.
Look under your image and you will be able to see “edit photo” from there you can replace that image with another by browsing. I have this option but I didn’t think anyone else had. hehe
