Photography Question

Photo Contest Frustration


I have been a member for some time now and have entered what I consider to be some pretty amazing photos into the photo contests. My frustration is that I can never find them in the entries - am I submitting them wrong? Are they getting looked at? Can someone help?

  Hi Debbie,If Your Uploading To Your Gallery And Putting Them In The Contest Days Later From Your Gallery That Would Be The Problem,When You Upload To BP The Image Is Given A Photo ID# It Always Find Its Spot In Numeric Order Which Makes Your Images Appear Further Into The Pages Of The ContestSign In And Go To Your Member Center Click On Current Contest Entries This Will Show You How Many Images You Have Entered For The Current Month Contest And Other Info On The Upload Hope This Helps...

  Terry is right, if they are showing up under Current Entries, they are in there somewhere and are getting looked at.

  I usually upload only 1 a day - and enter it in the contest at the same time. If you pre-upload them and then days later put them in the contest - they will show up by date order in the contest entries - meaning anyone checking current entries won't even see them.
Don't give up - there is a lot of tough competition here at BP (over 20,000 pics and only 5% make it to finalist)!
