Expert Editing places minimal restrictions on your post-processing. A full range of editing tools are allowed for touch-up and enhancement as well as for image modification. Please remember, however, that this is a photography contest. You are encouraged to keep your entries photographic in nature, and voters are encouraged to rate entries accordingly. All disqualifications are determined by majority vote of the Challenge Moderators. If you have any questions, you should err on the side of caution or contact the Challenge Moderators before submitting your entry. Entries that violate the letter or spirit of these rules will be **If you are having difficulties with uploading an image with the EXIF intact, we will allow you to send us your original file with the EXIF information intact for verification...and you may enter your edited version. Once we have received the original and have verified that the image was shot during the open period and does not violate any of the rules, we will make a notation on the entry information stating that "this image has been validated". As always, any image that does not have it's EXIF information and the owner has not provided the Mods with the original file with the EXIF info intact will need to be removed from the challenge.** Retain your original, unedited file(s) (exactly as recorded by your camera), and provide it/them to the Challenge Moderators along with a list of your editing steps within 48 hours of any validation request. This notice with instructions will be sent to your listed email address. Files that have been saved or altered with any editing or transfer software are NOT 'Great shot or Nice pic.' You may still enter and win the Best Of 2009 Competition with less than required post count but the prize will not be awarded. In the case of an non-active member winning the challenge where a prize is offered, the prize will be carried over to the next runner up who is eligible of winning the prize. The prize...
