"Tell a story or create a theme with two or three seperate photographs". This is the challenge description. The question is: two or three is a way to talk or is the real meaning. In another words, if I submit a kind of collage made, let's guess, with 7 pictures, can I be DQ?
Thanks

I would say it needs to be two or three separate photos, not a collage. That's how I see it.

I think it needs to be 'separate' photos, but if you did more than 3, I think it would depend on the individual voter...you're limited to 640x640 - wouldn't you rather use 2 or 3 good ones and show clear shots rather than a bunch of small, hard to see things? At least that's what I'm being told.

You wouldn't be disqualified. However it's quite likely that some voters would downgrade your shot.

Hmmm
Perhaps this is the moment my tiny pictures come into their own. I could get 288 of the in 640x640

| It said "spot editing allowed", which means you can make a collages of them. Take 2-3 photos and make a collage is perfectly fine. The only requirement is that you have to have 2 SEPARATE photos, how you present it on screen is up to you (otherwise, why bother to allow post editing? |

Because there are plenty of other reasons to do post editing other than cutting and pasting pictures together ?
While I agree that you certainly can do what you like, I expect entries with more than 3 pictures or pictures cobbled together will get downgraded, as they certainly are not the typical triptych or diptych mentioned in the challenge definition - but as ever entries won't get DQed for heavy editing, they just don't tend to do very well.
Nobody's stopping you. |

this is probably a stupid question, but do the 2 to 3 pics used need to be taken in the submission time period for this challenge? i see that the editing rules are out but I am unclear about the pics.

A diptych or triptych is 2 or 3 photos layed out vertically, horizontally, angularly, or other similar arrangement with a common theme. anything else such as displaying many photos would not fit that description.

Again, i'd expect all images used to be taken during the submission period

I agree entirely. However, it should be noted that one or each of the separate photos that make up the di/triptych could itself be a collage of many images.

EXACTLY -- rather than just cut and paste and group them together, you can do creative image mergings.. that's what I am getting at (using blend with layers, etc.)
Heck, i am going to submit something that I like -- i ain't no whore, Gordon :) screw the scores!
