Hello...
I've searched the FAQ and really didn't find answers to my questions. The questions being as follows.
Who is responsible for voting?
Is the winning photo based on amount of votes only?
How do I know if the contest being run is offering cash or a prize for the winner?
And the I'm a little miffed at the moment question of the evening is........
How is it that a photo can be viewed over fifty times and only have 4 votes?
Thanks!
Members are responsible for voting. You "earn" the ability to vote after you've done 10 entries of your own.
Winning chop is the one that gets the most votes. In the case of a tie first submitted wins (don't argue this please as it's been debated to death already).
Prize contests are denoted by a gold star next to the contest name. Clicking on the star will tell you what the prize is. Hopefully prizes are not your motivation and community is.
Views don't necessarily equate to votes. Each time YOU check your entry the view count goes up. Each time a visitor (read non-member) looks at your entry the view count goes up. Also some go through all entries before voting. And, not to put too fine a point on it, a chop that you think you did great on might not be well received by the rest of the community.
