Can I submit any photograph that I took in 2007, even if I have uploaded it to my portfolio here? (but not entered in any challenges) - or should they be new photographs to DPC to preserve voting anonymity?

Many thanks

I don't see any problem, as it is natural that if it is your best of the year you will have placed it in your portfolio. I would suggest that you move the portfolio version to your workshop until voting is complete.

For those that care:

Best of 2004 had 530 Entries with 1 DQ
Best of 2005 had 829 Entries with 7 DQs
Best of 2006 had 705 Entries with 9 DQs
Best of 2007 has ??? Entries with ? DQs

Wow, I hope this year's number of DQs don't follow the rising "trend"!

WOW. so many entries!!! I wonder if it's worth entering. I have a shot submitted which I know isn't a ribboner but I quite like it. With so many entries shots are bound to score lower than average.

Scoring 4.x has its fun, i am going to do it. I have many average shots from last year, have to put finger on one of them.

Well that thing the score would tell in the end ;-) .
But if you have 6+ photo that would be great, I do not have that so I have to only enjoy update button and score thread.

Well I dont have a 6+ photo, if I only entered ones that I thought were I wouldn't enter much at all. Dont worry, I take photos, I enter, I enjoy, no matter what the score. A good photo is great, a bad photo is a learning curve. I am getting better shot by shot. So lets sit back and enjoy the best of 2007, I am expecting to see some great shots!!

Yes, you can put it in workshop, or...you can go in your portfolio manager, select it and choose 'hide', it will be hidden from public view, as well as on dpcprints, if you have it up there.

I just entered, that might end up 6+. But if it does it will do it barely.

Good luck, zxaar -- I liked your recent tajmahal entry very much.
