May i address the following rule in basic editing:

*YOU MAY
- add a border to the outside edge of your entry. Your border must be distinct and clearly recognizable as a border.

What is classed as the outside edge ? Is this?


Image 1

or this

Image 2?

I would be interested in hearing your opinions. I dont want people to feel i am being petty, however it is important that the rules are clear and consise in thier meaning.

Edit: I made the borders black instead of white for clarity.

Both are around the outside edge. The point of that rule was to prevent people from dividing a shot into a diptych or triptych with a "border" running though the image.

How could #2 be DQ'ed? That's a basic border that almost everyone uses. I wouldn't consider #1 to be a border along the outside edge but apparently the rules allow that type of border as well.

I was responding to Techo but he deleted his message, probably realized he was wrong. ;)

The poster probably considered his post redundant after you edited your samples (white > black border illustration).

See, now we've got another redundant post. :-/
