Changes in the upload process

The basic idea behind 1x has always been to gather the finest photos on the Internet in one place.

To further secure the exceptional quality of the 1x gallery, all uploaded photos will from now on automatically be submitted for curation. The photos will of course still be saved in the photo directory as usual. We are implementing this change to encourage more high quality uploads and to make the process easier to understand. This means that the number of photos you can upload every week are as follows;

FREE member: 1 photo.
PLUS member: 5 photos.
PRO member: 10 photos.
UNLIMITED: Unlimited number of photos.

We are implementing this change to encourage more high quality uploads and to make the process easier to understand.

We are looking forward to seeing all your new wonderful photos!

You have no available upload slots. You get new slots exactly 7 days after each upload. ?? what this means
My last upload was at least one year ago. when I try to upload, I get message "You have no available upload slots. You get new slots exactly 7 days after each upload." Why?
its been almost 2 weeks and I get the message I can't upload and need to wait 7 days ? any help please
I can’t re-upload photos on my MacBook Pro, pls help, thanks
i can't upload photos why !!!
My last publication was 20 days ago. I upload a photo but the site gives me this message : You have no more upload slots....why? it is not true!
Why can't I upload to the weekly theme separately? Is it really worth to sacrifice one upload/curation slot for it? For free members it will become impossible to participate in the weekly theme as they will no slot left afterwards.
This would be a good time to update the FAQ content to help avoid confusion.
Hi Robert, An update is on its way.
It works quite nice, this new system of uploading. However, I would like to have the choice whether or not I want to send my photo to the curators. Can't there be a ticking box if I don't want it curated?
Hi Susanne, 1x is primarily a gallery for curated photos. That is why we have implemented the change that all photos will automatically be sent to curation.
The old system was OK. If I may say so, you'd better take care of the curation process. It is so vague and wrong, espacialy the matter of the 'unique' views which are not unique at all. Regards
What about the nude filter? What if you want to upload only for the weekly theme?
Hi René, thank you for your comments. We would like to encourage members to upload photos to weekly theme, that also would have a chance in curation. We think this will lead to even better photos in Weekly theme. The nude filter works the same as it always has.
Hello, My opinion is , uploads to be 2 photos per week , for free member. One photo will be for weekly theme. Regards Petar
Hi Petar, we want to make the system easier to understand and avoid different kinds of uploads. Weekly theme is full of wonderful photos and many are well worth to be curated. That is why we have implemented this system for now.
