Wildlife Photo Contest $450 - accepting images

[astroNikon]

Ohhh... this is priceless: "DISCOVER HOW GOOD YOUR PHOTOTS REALLY! Try - first photo: Save 25%, only $6.65 / photo" So, for only $6.65 (Plus PayPal fees I assume) I can get someone to critique my image? Wow... think of all the money I could have spent. If my PP account wasn't hosed right now, I'd be very tempted to give this a try just for s**ts and giggles!!!!

It is ??? I just sent you $100 too via paypal ?!?!?!
Can you kindly please send me back $100 in cash. small bills. American money too, no Canadian stuff.

That's the site I was talking about John, but I hadn't gotten to the pricing yet, thanks for sparing me from having to read it myself! (Although I did take a look to see what part of the site you were on.) Hmm they all seem to have gotten ratings of 8's 9's and 10's...

There's a few 6's & 7's which are mostly truly appalling, but yeah, there are an awful lot of 9.x and 10s. Some realllly good photographers list on that 'site, or so it would seem. If you want a chuckle, have a look at their idea of "top rated"! I wonder how that works; do the "experts" get part of that fee or what?

Okay, wait. So...you PAY them for the privilege of giving them rights to your photos, and in exchange you get some random people on the internet to tell you whether or not your photos are any good? Who wouldn't love that?!?!

*sniff* *sniff* So... that's what "rights grab" smells like!

Huh.. actually I thought it smelled a little more like this:

Sad part is the reviews are not even that detailed nor cohesive as it seems each photo is assessed by several different photographers in different "key areas". So yeah its a "pay X get a feelgood with some critique". Heck if we charged that much for crits here we'd all be millionaires Rodders!

Yeah... really! Can you imagine if there was a place where you could get random Internet people to tell if you what they thought of your photos for nothing?

I couldn't find who owns the site, no location, not a name of a person (maybe it's on there, I just didn't see it).......

By God, just imagine going one step further and have them offer legal advice of extremely dubious quality to boot! Dear lord, that place would be a gold mine I tell you.!

It might.. but only if you can find people dumb enough to work for porcupine pelts. Hmmm....
