Like many of the other posters I agree with having more options as far as voting is concerned - I think right now the system is too general and broad.

Also, I'd like to see a disqualification feature for photographs that are clearly 'over-Photoshoped'. The rules generally state what is acceptable as far as editing is concerned and I realize that most of the time the photographers stay within the guidelines but some folks are actually manufacturing pictures and that is not what we're trying to do here. Is it a big deal? No, but still, it would be nice! :wink:

Could we have a possible challenge feature where by entering a contest we agree to provide the original, unedited photograph and if one can not be provided then disqualification will occur? That alone might be a big deterrent.

I think there should be more contests available to enter in, because a lot of times there's only one, and I think it would be more interesting if there is more going on at a time. It would keep members more active to the website and generally obtain more interest. So basically I'm saying I think more members should make contests. Just a suggestion.

I would love to see more participation and make it so the person who is doing the contest can delete images that do not follow the rules.

Other than that...I love it!

At the moment we are testing the feature that allows website moderators delete images that do not follow rules. One member - Himself - agrees to moderate photo contests. If you would like to become the site moderator - contact me

I don't think the person who creates the contest should be allowed to take pictures out because then they can just take out whatever they want and take out good ones to make themselves win.

I don't think anyone can remove an entry except for the moderator of the website.

I would like to see more participation from the members here. There are challenges posted with very little entries.

There may not be prizes but this is a great way to learn.

I really like this site and I enjoy the challenge of not knowing what photos you are up against during a contest. I have to admit that there are still some things I don't understand about this site, like the forums and when and who you can reply to something. I'm getting the hang of it slowly. If every site had simple navigation, it would just get boring. And just wondering, is scanned 35mm acceptable for these contests or ONLY digital at ALL times ??? Deb

Hi, Deb!
I think we should appreciate film, too. Moreover, if you scan your photo it will become digital :)
