Square crop... - DPChallenge Forums

I have submitted my shot for square crop. The editting is very out of the box. I like it but i know it's going to score around the 4 mark. Can't decide wether to pull it or leave it in for the abuse?

I know what you mean.
Haven't had an update button for a week now.
May have to leave it in.
Every time i get a low score i promise myself that i'm not going to submit unless i really belive it can win.
This shot cannot win.

Oh Man I have been there soooo many times!! :) You have my sympathies..

I even self dq-ed last week because I entered the wrong crappy shot, and I, too vowed never to do that again.

Now square crop...here we go again...sheesh

I'm right there with ya dude... I know my shot can't win and I've been on such a good roll lately with my scores - but I too have been without an Update fix for over a week and am jonesing bad! LOL I just submitted my Square Crop shot. Debating on whether or not to leave it in. I'm sure I'll change my mind several times and pull it and resubmit it and pull it and resubmit it and... before the evening is done. Arrgh!

This looks like a fine bunch of folks to compete with. :-) Stay in there. No way can I.. I mean YOU, of course, live without the update button.

I have been doing that with my entry since the first day I submitted. I just checked and there are 14 jpeg versions and 3 tiff conversions of the same shot in my folder for this challenge.

I believe that I learn something useful with every entry regardless of my pathetic scores. Sure, I would like to win a ribbon, just don't think it's in the cards!

I'm debating the same thing - have put up 4 different shots - none of them really that great. I will probably leave the last one up - it's really different than my usual stuff. Don't think it will score well but I've been coming to terms with scoring low - it doesn't bother me that much any more.

For some reason, I always like my low scoring pictures better than the other ones! I loved how my Heart picture turned out - just how I wanted and it ended up in the 4's.
