Hi again.
I said, I'm new member. And I trying to understand of system. I was not know the uploading rule and I uploaded this:

But it was rejected: "Your picture has text added which we do not allow."

Well, I saw and waited for upload of improved version. And I have uploaded un-text form, like this:

But It's Rejected too. But explain is empty. I wanna to understand the concept of site. Why did not published? What is required?

Thank you
Zafer

Hi Zafer, the best place to get the answers to your questions is Critique, then you will get many comments on your image. It is a very helpful tool and will help you understand what this site is about, and also some very good tips to improve your image.
All the best.. Pat

Zafer, perhaps you should spend some time reading in the admittedly out dated FAQ's, but still good info in there and in the Forums.

Certain technical things like your watermark can trigger an instant rejection, but those things are very few. After that it's all subjective.

This is a site where every image is judged worthy or rejected. There is a complicated screening process that seems to change fairly often and is not up-to=date in the FAQ's. For this you should read through some of the recent forums about changes in the screening process.

There is no way to answer your question "Why did not published?". The folks that screened it just didn't find it 1x material, sorry.

Hi Zaffer.

The photos you upload are apreciated for a screen crew who apreciates a lot of them all days after days, so, that crew have no time at all to explain in each photo why they decide reject them.

When the screening team decide to send a photo for member screening, sometimes members write somthing about they vote NO or yes, but then, when votes are finished, screeners have a final word and decide for publish or reject and say nothing again.

Now, you can submit your photo for critic and trey to ask other member why your photo are rejected, but consider a 1X rejection a fact that means screeners decide your photo didn´t fit in 1X and that do not means is a horrible photo, i see superb photos in screening finish with a rejection. It´s usual here, so, try again and send thar photo for critique ;)

And, i think nobody here have a exact definition for what is a 1X photo eh eh eh

But one thing i know, it´s very hard here they let you publish a crap photo in your 1X gallery :)

Kinda cool pic, I quite like it but the first version was rejected on "Added text"

With the second version, let me ask you a couple of questions.

1. Do you feel that you have made best use of composition here?

2. Do you feel that the image is sharp?

3. It is my opinion that this image could be dramatically improved and for that reason its publication was declined. My recommendation is that you post this to critique, in my opinion there is a cool image here waiting to emerge but this is not it.

all the best. mal

So so thanks to everybody for comments. I'll trying post to critique, I was not know but it's clean right now.

Sincerely.

Zafer

Great "Post processing tutorials" :(

Post processing ? What is that ?

Written in the 'About'-section:

'Are copyrights or other texts allowed?
Onexposure has a very clean layout and we prefer if the photo is completely devoid of text. The title and name of the photographer are automatically displayed below the photo. Unfortunately a watermark can be cropped or cloned out. If someone would use your photos without permission contact the site crew and we will make sure it's taken down. Copyright texts are allowed, but they must be discrete. The font should be quite small, and in the bottom left or right corner, and the contrast against the background mustn't be too high, preferably it should be transparent with quite low opacity. Don't put anything in there except the copyright symbol and your name. Artistic signatures, symbols or initials look a lot better than plain text.

There should be no added text except the discrete copyright, signature, symbol or initials.'

I also had a rejection with the same reason. Text may be added as long it's like written in the line as mentioned above. I guess I don't get the PICTURE anymore. Think it's time to re-write the passage in the 'About'.

I suggest that you do a forum search "copyright" there are several threads that will explain all. However, in short all images uploaded with added text will be rejected straight away. This has been the case for some months now.

The about section is under review and is near completion but there are a lot of words.

mal

OK, thanks. I didn't know about the review. I suggest to get rid of the text in the 'About' straight away 'cause it just isn't actual anymore.

agree DeLone. mal

i posted 6th photo's already, and all being rejected.
That's what make me say that 1x.com is the very high class photography site than any other web site in the world. With this web site we could improve our technique photography.

Keep Try my Friend.

nah, i posted around 10 photos so far and even won some local competitions with some, but all got rejected here.. i feel good if i get any comments after screening.. that's good enough for me.. i just tell myself that my style is not "1x enough".

Hello Pen,

send your picture in critique section. There you will get provided a lot of good critiques and help!

Robert

I think there's also a thing about borders around the photo, but it could also be that the reviewers didn't find it very exciting. I think it's a decent photo, but they're looking for out-of-the-park knockouts here. I get the feeling that some rejections are inevitable on this site.

Hey guys, what if a photo gets rejected and you post it in critique and all it gets is pure admiration for the photo? then how would you know why it is rejected?

Please note in critique you will not get to know why your picture is rejected. Please read the critique forum rules!

Robert

Oh, yes for God's sake man!!! Read the rules!! It's all about the rules!!

Seriously, there is, nor should there be any real expectation that you will know why an image is rejected. Especially on this site, the process just doesn't allow for that kind of feedback. And further, the process doesn't produce the kind of consistent results that would allow you to deduce much feedback either...

:-)))

I suppose that means it's bipedal carbon based life forms (aka human beings) trying to do the best they can....

Eii Willem, you forgot also the quadripedal carbon based life here ... my goats, remember ?

Oh Rui, don't tell us you get your goats to screen photos too?! ;)

Yes, sometimes Mal ask me to send him some goats to do the job.

Who could have know...?

Then Gerrard and co. are on holiday.

That explains quite a lot...

When you feed a goat good quality food, what comes out at the other end is ....

Yep, except on or two of 'em are still draggin' knuckles...

:-)
And wield a mighty photoclub

ive only read o few posts here but im thinking;

to me this looks like a free critique forum. this whole forum should not exist

Lock it?

I actually have to writie critiques to get critiques, what is this?

Good idea, this is an old thread, which is not really relevant anymore. Please use the critique forum to request critique like Levi points out! Case closed.
