You can delete it yourself Amanda.

Simply go to view entries, and click on the photo to be deleted, then in the top right hand corner click image tools. You should have the option to delete.

Brad will remove photos that do not meet requirements.

If your photo makes the finals, you will not receive a notification.

Brad usually announces that he has purged the photos that didnt meet the rules in time for you to maybe fix it and re-post it I believe.

Did you go check things like picture size? There are rules as to what is allowed. Have a look under photo contest rules. The size is the one most often overlooked.

You had a whole month...

You had a whole month...

I procrastinate, because the longer I wait the older I'll be, and somehow a better photographer.

 

[Chamlo]

I can't click the links on mobile!!!

Having a hard time deciding on your favorite?

Comparing the original size of each image can help and is recommended. Photos should not only be judged by the chameleon displayed, but also on composition and image quality.

We received over 50 entries this month representing many beautiful chameleons. Some entries suffered from pixelation and artifact issues which may have affected their ranking. If your photo did not advance to the voting round you're welcome to send me a pm and inquire about how it might have ranked higher.

 

[okiroo]

I agree, I need three votes as well..........time to put them on the big screen at home.......and then flip a coin.

Oh, and Brad, your avatar is just too tame now -- nice Cham but not what I have grown accustomed to from you.
