Re: Post-screening questions

Thank you, I was under the impression that Double only applied for shots taken in the same sequence.

Re: Have quality standards changed on here recently?

I don't know the screener's email address as I don't know who screened this photo.
And how can other people learn from emails that only I would get from the screener? In the forum anybody can learn and discuss.

Re: Have quality standards changed on here recently?

Should this have been rejected for vignetting (or perhaps shooting through the fence)?

Re: Flood Lights = Automatic Overexposed?

Main issue here is the wet ramp which is causing white-outs. Quite different situation than most of your accepted shots (although personally I would reject some of these as well due to the white-outs).

Re: Post-screening questions

Hi all, I just got an image rejected for double, even though they were clearly not taken in the same sequence but at different times of the day and at different locations. Can anybody please clarify the "double" rules? Rejected image: https://imgproc.airliners.net/photos/airliners/1/4/9/71...

Re: Thank you: official index

Thanks, very helpful indeed.
Would it be possible to add "#unread" to the end of all hyperlinks so that it automatically opens the first unread post? Would save a lot of time searching/re-reading, especially when topics get bigger throughout the year.

Disappearing photos.

It seems like some of the previously accepted photos have now disappeared, possibly an indexing issue? When I search for photo ID 7012383, I get no results, but I do see it in my photo corner under accepted photos. There are several more with the same issue. Does anybody else have the same problem w...

Re: Photoshopped photo?

Not sure what the problem is with posting such critiques in the forum. Isn't it the photographer who uploaded it himself in the first place? A long time photographer should know to upload just his best shots; not to dump your memory card in the queue. Based on the current queue length he had plenty ...

Re: Pre/Post Screening Input - Josh Frizzell

Usually this website is not a big fan of clipping the wings, but the rules seem different from time to time. Anyway, on the left side, try cropping it closer to the horizontal stabilizer; on the right side try to include the enite strut (including the piece that connects it to the wing).

Re: Permanent "oversharpened" rejections

Sometimes I got a lot of accepted photos in sequence, then suddenly I start to get rejections for oversharpened or soft.

Just wondering why this website is now accepting photos with dust spots. Has the policy been changed regarding the removal of dust spots?

Re: Max photos in screening at once?

It does, to a maximum of 40.
The more photos you have accepted in the database, the more you allowed to upload in the queue. Can't remember the exact numbers but I believe once you have 1000 photos accepted, then you will hit the maximum of 40.
