We are reopening submissions for more candidate photos to be
featured on our Home page. Here is how it works:
1. Timeline
- Submission deadline: Sunday, May 24th,
11:59 p.m.
- Publish 30 image candidates for voting: Friday, May 29th.
- Voting for candidates: May 29th - June 12th
- The
winners will be featured on www.zenfolio.com Home page for at least one month. We will publish them when our next release is ready.
2. Theme
The subject theme for this contest is Chromatism.
Chromatism:
1. (Optics) The state of being colored, as in the case of images formed by a lens.
We are looking for photos that stand out because of the use of color. We want to see striking, amazing color that makes the viewer's jaw drop. We will accept a lot of flexibility in the subject so B&W photographs will definitely qualify if the lack of color 'makes' the image.
3. Requirements
The rules from the previous contests stay:
- Submitted photos should follow the subject theme above and be original
works.
- They should make the viewer pause, take a deep breath, and admire the
work.
- Our
Home page requires horizontal
images. Vertical images will have to be rejected.
- We
like "Zenny" images. "Zenny" in this case means playing
well with the overall look and feel of our site.
- The
content should be appropriate for our Home page. Use your best judgment.
4. Submitting the Images
We are asking you to submit images by posting links in this forum
thread. Please post the link to the
image in your gallery, not the link to the JPEG file.
We will go through the submissions and add them to a special
Collection, so we can review them. Please make sure that adding to collections is allowed
for submitted images and that the gallery they are in is not password
protected. We will have to reject submissions that we cannot view, or cannot
add to a collection. You can test if everything is setup correctly by logging out and trying to add your submission to a collection.
Refer to the following help topics for more information:

Control
We will have to promptly stop
accepting submissions after the deadline to be able to review the
submissions and vote for them.
5. Picking the Winners
Our creative staff will review the images and select 30
candidates for voting. You will then be able to choose the top 10 winners.
The top 10 winners
will be featured on our Home page.
To get the legal stuff out of the way, let's agree that by
submitting the image you allow us to use it on the www.zenfolio.com
Home page. In addition, please verify that the subjects in your photos do not
object to being displayed on a public Web site.
We are looking forward to seeing more wonderful images from you!
