Photography Question

Entering the contests


I have two things about entering the contests I need help with. The first is.. When I last looked at the section " Edit your photos" in the My Members Center.. I used to have three things to choose from for each image.. Enter into contest, Share this image. or have a pro look at it. Now.. I only get the " Share with a friends " link.. where did the others go?

Secondly.. I used the links in the contest info page to enter the contests with one of my images for the Monthly theme.. I done all it it says to do.. I get finished and submit.. now.. I cant find the image I submitted into the contest. I looked by ID # too.. has any one else had this issue?

Oh.. and what happen to the PAY contests? I wanted to enter one of them too... any help will be nice.. thank you in advance

Two main points are:
1. The Cash Contest has been suspended. Judging on the final June Cash Photo Contest will take place later this month.
2. Entry to the other monthly photo contest is now open only to BetterPhoto students and BetterPholio subscribers.

  Thank your for the fast replay Nobi.

This is think is not fair.. free is great for those who cant afford a Site just yet.. oh well.. nothing I can do about that.. other then to try and save the money to get a site

It does sound a little too cold, I thought.
There others feel the same as you do and in the same situation as you are.
I started a couple of small clubs here and I'm afraid, some members (who are in the clubs) who are in the same situation as you and may decide to leave the site. It would be a little sad, too.

Hi Robert,
Maybe, that's what BP is hoping for.., that is, more people would upgrade from free gallery to Basic Betterfolio.

Thanks for checking out my gallery.
I am switching back and forth between the classic version to new version right now.
The new version has more or less a professional website look and layout.
There are some glitches and missing functionalities. Some problems will be fixed fairy quickly in my opinion.
If you read a couple of other threads about the new version, a great deal of dislikes and dissatisfaction are being expressed, but in the end I'd think many of them will get used to it. After all, the new version was released only a couple of days ago. Bugs are always hidden in the new programs and will be exposed when it goes into the production mode. And people tend to resist to changes.
