You must be logged in to http://www.potofgrass.com/gallery/ to access it

here you can try out uploading images checking exif etc to make sure your image is valid... DO NOT upload your comp image here as people will see your entry...

This is for those who are a little unsure of the process I put in my earlier post and want to try it out...

The album will be cleared out periodicaly

Ok... Midnight is the deadline for round one... Entries close then and entries (but not identities) will be revealed soon after..

Please, if this is your first submission to the comps submit before 9pm as I will be going to bed not to long after and will not be able to help...

15 excellent (some VERY excellent) images so far...

I didn't think we got to see them until Round 2 was completed ?!?

Would this not give others ideas for Round 2 ??

I guess the upside is, we don't have to wait long to see the entries thus far :-)

is it possible to change the flourescent blue background colour of the gallery? it's makes it difficult to see the true colours of the submission
personally i would prefer black, but anything more muted than the current colour would be great thanks!

nup... sorry..

I started with that one and many asked (to match to the submissions) whether it will stay that way.... and to keep things simple I said "yes"

Entries are now closed for part 1
I will be revealing entries shortly

While discussing trends and the gallery as a whole is Ok please do not discuss individual entries

Submission gallery for part 2 will be open in the next few days

fair enough, i can understand that for part 1, but what about part 2 which is just starting now? i think that most people would prefer a plain white, black or grey, much like a real-life gallery. i'm happy to start a poll if you wish!

as an example of what i mean, try looking at my previous entry

the bright green completely sucks the life out of the photo!
