New photo comp tool coming soon

[NoGi]

Just a FYI, I've got someone building a photo comp tool for me that will hopefully streamline things with the photo comps that we run. Some of the features I've asked for:

• User submissions - you submit your own entries
• All entries are anonymous until winner chosen - makes for an unbiased comp
• Vote on up to 3 elements on each pic (e.g. quality, originality, etc...) - helps to level the playing field with expert and novice photographers
  • Not all comps will be like this though, some will still be voting for the best
• Sidebar widget to show running comps etc...

Sounds great......thanks Nogi

that sounds awesome Nogi :)

 

If they incorporated an option so that yourself could turn on and off the elements people vote on i think you could use it for all comps provided they added in element which was perhaps titled 'Overall'

That's the plan, if multiple voting elements are turned on, it takes the total score of all the enabled elements.

Still very early stages but a teaser nonetheless.

You will note the anonymity in viewing the comp.

 

This is still very early in the process so don't take too much away from these pics as they don't include photos yet. Just thought I'd give a quick update so far.
