Photography Question 

Anna Diederich
 

I can't find my contest entry


Hello, I hope somebody can help me. I uploaded a picture last night to enter into the contest. Seeing as this is my first entry into a contest, I may have made a done something wrong. The picture never showed up under recent entries. I also checked the special effects category (this is where I posted it to) and it's no where to be found. When I go to My Member Center, it shows that I have 1 picture entered in the contest. Anybody know where my picture could have gone? I did mark the display box that is right next to the picture. Any help is appreciated!

  If you're picture shows up in your contest entries in your Member Center, then relax, it's in the contest.

When you look in the recent contest entries, the pictures are sorted in the order that they were "uploaded to the site", not in the order that they were entered into the contest. Also, more pictures are constantly being added, so your picture's spot in the sort order is constantly changing.

  Chris, I have to photos that I've entered that show up in my Member Center also that I've never found in the contest. Any suggestions?

  Anna, right now the photo "concert in Ebisu Garden" is on the page 4 in Special Effect category. It will move down the page as the time passes...
Is it what you are looking for?
I like the photo. Nice zoom effect.

  Unfortunately, "recent contest entries" are not sorted by entry date - instead they are sorted by upload date. So if you entered a previously uploaded photo, it would be somewhere in the middle of the pack. If you want people to see it and comment on it, it's a good idea to upload the photo and enter it at the same time! :)

THANK YOU!

  Kelly, thank you so much for your help on that one, that makes sense. I'll have to go back and search now.
