Submitted! Who gets the emails? Will there be a conformation?

is it discouraged to post them on the regular forums?

I think if the same image is posted on the forum, then the people voting will know who made the submission, and be influenced (not saying which way). So in the spirit of the competition where we do not know who posted, it would probably be not wise to use an image that we can associate with a person. But the "three amigos" can clarify that.

Also is there to be a great unveiling of identities for all the entries at the end?

I'm nosey.

 

[runnah]

Well if I win I will gloat forever...

 

[ATVrider43]

Excellent! I'll get shooting

 

[rhodeislandhntr]

I might have to give this a shot, sounds like fun

 

[manaheim]

Posting them on the forum would disqualify them unfortunately.

Yes we'll reveal everyone's identity when the vote is done.

At the moment I get the email but I'm working on a program to handle it,

Who are you kidding, that's too many words for you when you're sober.

Not my fault, too many words in a row makes me sleepy XD.

All I see are bunnies, whips, whips with bunnies..bunnies in leather with whips...bunny whips.

 

[manaheim]

mmmm bunny whip.

Ok. I have a beef. (100% beef, no horsemeat). I think 1 image per poster per month is a trifle restrictive. I suggest you allow up to 3 images per poster per month. Because if runnah (who claims he just submitted), finds an absolutely gorgeous image by mid-month, he'd be totally blocked from sharing this wonder with us, and surely we'd want him to give us his best work. Right runnah? So if we have the 3-image rule, we can keep looking for images the entire month as long as we don't fill up our quota immediately.

You can take as many pictures on this theme as you want!! At the end of the month you need to decide what is your best picture. One month, one theme, one picture.

 

[manaheim]

What about you can send a message saying that you'd like to replace your previous entry with whatever the new one is?

I can understand your thinking here, but otoh--as much interest as there seems to be in this, if everyone submitted three photos, it'd just be completely overwhelming trying to look at all those pictures when it comes time to vote. I'd rather keep the final number of photos that we're voting on small enough that there's at least a remote chance I can eventually make a decision.

I like manny's plan--if you get a better picture after you've submitted yours, you submit a "replacement" photo.

Two random questions that popped into my head while trying to drink enough coffee this morning to move my blood pressure up to "conscious" status:

1. Limit of one photo--could a person do a diptych or triptych and submit it to count as "one" photo?

2. This may be more of a question for Overread: Once the Photo Challenge pictures are posted for voting, are they ALSO eligible to be nominated as POTM?

Third cup of coffee bonus: I now have my idea for my photo! Now, I just have to figure out how to pull it off, because it's not the kind of photo I do much of.

 

[manaheim]

If by diptych and tryptitch, I take your meaning to be multiple images that make a single whole... let me talk to the folks on this and get back to you.

Good luck on the photo.
