For those of you who aren't familiar with it, PPChallenge is a site I setup for photo post processing challenges in a format quite similar to DPC. It's open to all DPC users.

This week

jaded_youth has offered a really nice portrait from the DPC Europe GTG! Check out this week's challenge over at PPChallenge. Thanks Crystal!

Determining factors in this challenge, in my mind, will be skin tone and overall color tone, sharpness and softness in the right places, feature highlighting, and handling the ringlight obstruction.

Again the max number of entrants is 32, using DPC Advanced Editing rules with the 720px and 200kb limits.

Check out the site to see what it's all about. Browse through complete challenges, submit your own photos for everybody to edit, compete and vote weekly! Sign up now by sending me a PM (see method #2).

Cheers,
-Jeff

Gonna bump this for the weekday crowd.

Got 16 spots still open...

and Brad and I are both playing this week, so the best you can hope for is 3rd place.

Is there a way to see how many challenges you entered or see all your entries?

My, isn't that a hole in the system. The My Stats link in the menu will show you your current score, your high scores, all your medal winners, and your four most recent entries, but there is not yet a way to view all your past entries.

I was always going to add a table, much like the one in your DPC profile page. Just haven't got there yet!

Tonight is rollover at PPChallenge (California time - sorry, I know it's confusing).

There's still time to get in on the fun with Crystal's image, or vote on the Terje Landscapes! Tomorrow will bring voting and results, respectively.

Also, remember to upload your shots for use in future challenges.
