To Recap:
1). pushinfaders wants the forum to have photographic genre challenge not photoshop challenge hence "keep postwork to a minimum" statement/rule.
2). inshaala feels the statement/rule can't be defined further as it becomes too difficult to regulate and adds to the workload of the contest administrators.
3). it is felt through experience the addition of a more defined statement/rule will discourage entry to challenge.
4). members decide for themselves whether or not to submit an entry using their own interpretation of the "postwork" statement/rule.
5). members having submitted an entry may still have it deemed ineligible by the challenge administrators for what they consider excessive "postwork".
6). it is felt through experience that the voters would be uninterested in any postwork information or the transparency of postwork.
7). tom's pictures speak to him ;)
8). and art doesn't want any pie;p
My feelings:
1). i agree with.
2). i disagree with.
3}. i disagree with.
4). i agree with partly.
5). i agree with, but why can't the criteria they apply be available to all? Is it like the freemasons?
6). i disagree with.
7). don't worry tom mine speak to me too, but I've got pills for my condition ;)
8). if art don't want his pie I'll have his ;P
I am reluctantly prepared to bow to the experience of those who have replied to this thread, but wait to see what developments occur in the future.
If the April Genre Challenge is indicative of what is deemed acceptable by the moderators in the terms of postwork, I'd love to see the rejected images. And can't wait to see what appears in May's Genre Challenge (postwork-fest yahoooo!!!).
Pushinfaders I apologise for telling you, you couldn't count, in a public forum. If it happens again I'll tell you in secret. If you still need to use my fingers and toes just let me know ;)
