Comments:

friiskiwi: Wish it had been restricted to things, so the sunsets etc could be kept for a different contest. (84 days ago)
Contest Moderator: As it seems most people don't know yet: there is a new rule in effect. If your entry gets removed, you won't be able to upload another picture. So better make sure to enter complying pictures _before_ uploading. Thanks for your understanding. (83 days ago)
Gubbles: Agree with friiskiwi and personally as far as the new rule goes I think it's unfair and it doesn't have my understanding. (83 days ago)
Contest Moderator: Indeed the new rule requires folks to think first and submit later. Unforgiving and unfair like a tree getting in a driver's way. (82 days ago)
friiskiwi: Where can we find the NEW rules? (82 days ago)
Contest Moderator: By getting your entry removed. And in the forum. It's been folklore in PXLeyes and by moving here, things changed. (82 days ago)
Gubbles: Things have changed alright but sadly not for the better. (82 days ago)
momvera: I have to agree with friiskiwi and Gubbles: It's unfair. (82 days ago)
friiskiwi: PLEASE - WHERE CAN WE FIND THE RULES? (82 days ago)

jawshoewhah: There's a lot of good entries in this contest. It's hard to say which one really stands out the most. (80 days ago)
itsmymoment: I have to agree with the new rules, I have already had an enrty removed and can not replace it, however, I chalk this up as my own fault for not having read completely and complied with the contest guidelines. Like shooting film vs. digital, I believe it should give pause to slow down, read the rules and give careful consideration to my entries in the future. (79 days ago)
itsmymoment: After a period of time, I believe more artist will comply with the contest guidelines after not being able to re-upload images and it will prevent all of us from having to red-flag so many OT entries... (79 days ago)
FallingHorse: Ditto to the above! (79 days ago)
