Rules & Guidelines
This is how it works:
Every week from Monday to Sunday there will be a challenge for a particular theme. You can enter the challenge by submitting one entirely new photo, which was taken after the challenge has been announced (no archive shot) . Read on for further details.
PARTICIPATING IN A CHALLENGE
-
In the "Discussion Forum" section you can find threads with challenges. You can identify the current challenge by the ending date stated in it's name. Read the description of the challenge and submit ONE shot according to that description.
To submit an image use the "reply" box underneath the challenge description. On the top of the reply box you will see a small icon that looks like a small image, click on it. In the next window select a file from your harddrive or use URL.
You may submit additional images, that will not be judged. Please mark every additional image as 'Non Entry' or 'NE'. All photographs (entries and non entries) have to be new. They have to be taken after the challenge has been announced!
The winner of the challenge will be the host of the next challenge. Thus if you have entered a challenge you have to check back and see the winners. If you are the winner, you have to start a new challenge as soon as you can.
The winner of the challenge will be the host of the next challenge. Thus if you have entered a challenge you have to check back and see the winners. If you are the winner, you have to start a new challenge as soon as you can.
Please, do not cheat. There is basically no reason to cheat. There are no prizes to win. It's all about fun and creativity. Every submission of an old photograph will be counted as a cheating attempt and punished with one month suspession from this group.
STARTING A NEW CHALLENGE
-
Only winners of a challenge may start a new challenge.
Go to the "Discussion Forum" area below, on the bottom left you will see "+Add a discussion". Click on +Add a discussion. It will ask you for a title. Put the theme of your challenge in the title.
In the "post" box, write a short description on what you would like to see. Try to choose something that everyone can photograph within a week (e.g. it is less likely to get many submissions for a mountain theme). Please, do not post any example photos.
When the challenge is over and you've picked the top 3 winners, create a new discussion again (+Add a discussion) and post the winning photographs and your comments there. To post an image in a new discusson you have to right click on the image, copy it's URL, then use the image button in your newly created discussion (like you did when you submitted your entry) and paste the URL in there.
Note: Every challenge has to end on a Monday! (to keep things simple)

to be realistic in my opinion.. i think we could possibly ask the admins/mods to allow old photo's for EXAMPLES ONLY.. the reason being this seems fair to because if i have a challenge in mind i am restricted to what is close too me if i wish to upload examples to show exactly what i want to see.. or the topic would be delayed if i had to travel to get examples (am i making sence?) for example.. if i wanted the topic to be 'Mountains' i would not be able to show any (new) examples and i live over 100 miles from one (i would only be able to provide archives).. yes new shots for the Entries and NE's no doubt about it but maybe relax a little on Examples...

Isn't it called the "weekly challenge" group because it's supposed to be a challenge and not an opportunity to display any previous photographs that you have taken that are relative to the week's theme? Embrace the opportunity to take new shots I say :)

ha ah ..I totally agree with Deborah - Point well made.
In my opinon, reiterating the rules in every challenge in their description will not cause confusion (hopfully)

I agree Anita, you don't need a week to upload archive shots.

Hi all,
Once in a while the discussion pops up, about new and old photo's.Should the rules (above) be kept so strict? In my opinion: Yes. Those who have problems with it, can participate in de DC.
