Forum Guidelines

    Photo-Posting Guidelines
  • Only post your own photos.
  • Please post no more than five images a day.
  • Post no more than one image per thread. You may post alternative versions of the same photograph for the sake of comparison.
  • When asking for your critique, please try to remain objective and detached from your images and view them impartially.
  • Be polite, do not rant or post examples of other people’s work for comparison.
  • Post one critique for every image you post – give back as much as you receive.

Critique-Posting Guidelines

  • Please be specific, constructive, and kind. There are all types and levels of photographers here. They all deserve our respect and attention.
  • Feel free to post critiques for as many images as you like – the more the better!
  • Do not copy and edit another photographer’s photo without his or her permission.
  • Stay on topic. This forum is for serious photo criticism. There are other forums here for discussing other aspects of photography or sharing photos.

“Great,” “I like it,” and “awesome” are not critiques. Please also say why you like or don’t like a photo. The critique is a collaborative process – both the photographer and the critic learn and grow from the process. Above all, have fun, and learn as much as you can.

You can embed an image to your post using the following HTML code:

<img src=”http://domain.com/image.jpg” />
