Image Viewing Page for individuals and the capability to select an image from this page.
The main news is the introduction of the Image Viewing Page for individuals and the capability to select an existing image for entry. The Image Viewing page is accessible from the Members Directory page and from the Profile page.
The capability to select an existing image is now built into the entry form. This allows a person to re-use an image previously uploaded. It is accessed from the entry form using the green button shown below.
This button takes you to the Image Viewing page with a clear indication that it is in “selection mode”
Selecting a thumbnail will show the Commenting Page and has a red button to select that image.
Selecting the image takes you back to the entry form and the selected entry looks the same as if it just uploaded the entry.
The Print and Projected Image of the Year competition will be restricted to allow only previously entered images to be entered using this feature.
Members are reminded of our club’s rules regarding previously entered images. Only images that have not achieved a Credit, Merit or Top Shot Award may be entered in competitions to a maximum of three times. Images achieving a Credit or higher award may not be entered in any further competitions, with the following exception. All images, regardless of awards achieved, may be entered into the Print and Projected Image of the Year competition, but only in the same calendar year of the original entry.
Issues with the display of Competitions page.
Several people have reported a problem where each collection is shown extremely narrow and impossible to read. An example of this phenomenon is shown below. This is caused by a bug in the screen resizing process to dynamically adapt to different screen sizes. The workaround for this is to adjust the width of the window, usually by grabbing the edge of the window and dragging it in or out until the page displays correctly.
Other competitions you can enter
Below your competitions are links to competitions MyPhotoClub hosts that you may be interested in entering. Some have restrictions (NPF is for Hunter region club) but they are generally of interest to our members. A very special night sky competition is available called Capture the Cosmos.
