In this post it states'photos must be taken during the challenge period'--- in contest guidelines #4 says
• Photos can either be from a digital camera or scanned prints, slides or negatives. Photos don't necessarily need to be shot during the contest dates, they can be from the past or present...

So which is correct?

so why can't the dates be clearly stated-- there's nothing here to say beginning or closing date of acceptance-- and should be explicit regarding age of images or dates when images are shot--

all there is, is a sticky noting December Challenge open--

so if I post my still life from 29 November or 1 December, you will trash it because you posted on 3December with no opening or closing date noted?

Sorry about the double responce but I thought an edit wouldnt show up that I've added something to last post..

Could someone point me to where we view the monthly challenge entries? I'm getting a little lost (and going round in circles).

Cheers.......HB.

don't kill me yet

but you have my entries as dated 30 November, so they are outside your specified date. My computer came back from the shop 28th December as it died the day I posted the note and the entries--literally died.

may I enter two entries that have been shot within this time, 1 dec- 5 january, now? computer has been verifiably gone all this time from 13th December and I was finally able to offload camera on 30th January. I can send you the work order and receipt. you can also check my gallery and see that the last postings were 12 and 30th December. And if the entries must be between this date it is only logical that I should be able to make the resubmission.

and the actual dates were not given with your original announcement which seems crazy to me as a writer.


thank-you for not trashing the images.

it is very confusing. In the monthly challenge it says, the contest photos are to be taken and posted between 1st and 25 th of the month. Now in this forum it states differenly. -open untill jan 5th. Which is correct?

You have to give coorect information regarding the dates under Dec. monthly challenge.

Thanks
