I'm off work for the holidays so I've had time to upload a bunch this week. All rejected:
Not surprised, but I've been submitting my ribbon winners because I have an aim for this year to get a ribboning image accepted there.
Not surprised - not strong enough.
Not too surprised - a bit dull in retrospect
A bit surprised = I've done well there with nudes, this is probably as good as others. I wonder if the sharpness of her eye was problematical, or the highlight on her left breast.
I thought this was the strongest of the bunch.

BTW, if you have a submission ready for 1x, but currently in voting here, how long to most of you wait to post the image for screening? I usually wait for the last day of voting. |

| I'll usually wait until the last day of voting here. Haven't submitted there for over a year, though. Haven't visited for a long time either - how are things there these days? |

| Did anybody notice that the current large photo on the front page is a Ken Rockwell? Hmmm, 1x has now jumped the shark. |

Would have done well in the 'Unbalanced' challenge i'd say. There is a lovely, slightly unnerving tilt to it i like.

| BTW, they cut off the top part of the original photo, which made is significantly worse, IMO. |

| That's for laughs, right? There isn't a photo in this entire thread that isn't more interesting. |

| Seeing this thread reminded me to submit yet again. So far I've had one image published and ten rejections. So it's about time to get number two... |

| I'm all very new to this, but what's special about 1x? Why the desire to have images accepted there? Why this particular website? |

"because it's there"? :)
seriously, since the photos there are heavily screened, the quality is uniformly very high, and so the visitors traffic is huge. This site gives your photos unrivaled visibility, I have an average of 20,000 views per image. Compare that to DPC or any other photo sharing sites.

Is it purely for visibility and exposure, or to sell prints? |

One translates to the other :). They are planning to introduce print sales, similar to DPCprints I guess, but haven't started that yet. But indirectly it definitely can lead to sales or other opportunities. Happened to me a few times. |

Would you be providing a link to another site for prospective viewers to go to purchase a print? |
|
|
|
02/11/2011 02:41:29 PM · #2170 |
| Right. I guess you can put such a link in the details section under every image, if you wish. I usually don't, but there is a link to my website from my profile page. |

Have a look for yourself. The work here is nothing short of phenomenal. It's not easy to get published on this site. But a basic membership is free and allows you to submit one image per week.
