Image Sizing

The maximum width for images submitted to the contest web site is 4096 pixels. The limit on the height of the image is 2160 pixels.

Competition Website

To enter photographs into a PPC contest, you must upload them to the PPC Competition Website. You not only must be a member of the club, but must also have created an account for yourself in the contest website. This video will walk you through the registration process.

When you upload images, they will be stored in your personal library. For each contest, you must select an image from your library to be entered in the contest. More detailed instructions for submitting entries are available in this PDF document: Competition Site Instructions. Please note that the Competition Website is run by a third party and is not owned by the Plano Photography Club.

Courtesy Critique

If you have an image you think is pretty good, but you would like someone else’s opinion before you enter it in the PPC competition, you may take advantage of a simple and free way of getting an image critiqued by Master level photographers by sending the image to Larry Petterborg. Larry sends your image anonymously to two or three master photographers and returns their critiques to you. Please ensure your image observes the Image Guidelines and send no more than one image at a time. This service is for club members only.
