Now you can submit your photos uploaded in April to the contest

Since some minutes ago you can submit your photos uploaded in April to the Panoramio contest. Those photos will have the link "submit to the contest" and can be voted in when they will get the "vote" button.

You can vote for the photos uploaded in March until the end of April. Now photos in the gallery of participants are displayed randomly so you get fresh photos all the time. The winners of photos uploaded in March will be known on May 15th.

  4. Dear Eduardo...I am very sorry, but this contest is completely out of sense - too much pics, at first.Not more, than three pics per person per topic.It is impossible to watch several thousand pics !!!The result ?

  6. I agree with Millotaurus.
    There should be a limit on Pictrues posted for any competition.
    I also say; Lets change it please.

  9. To the webmaster. Are you sure that every vote count? Since a few days, what seems an old bug affects views counters. Will we know the final score after April?

  10. Hallo Eduardo Manchón,
    with the Contest -- Panoramio User send to much Pict from Familie or somethink more, but not for Idear from Google Earth or Panoramio -- For look for Nice Places and Monuments or Landscape !! I think when you not limited for Fotos from User -5 to 10- its for everybody -> a Joke !! I want not 200, 300 or more Pages check for one good Picture ? I Think your Server sometime overload !!
    Thanks a lot Tater

    It's a great initiative but definitely needs a restriction on the number of shots uploaded by an individual per month. It is too hard to wade through the many average or poor shots to find the ones with merit. Make it 1 only per month per individual!

  13. Since no one in their right mind can view all entries, the winners will probably determined by accident ... or those who write hundreds of comments begging for votes.

  16. I am not able to find any "submit" button attached to the photos I uploaded and geotagged during the first week of April. How else do I submit the photos please?

  17. Only one pic per person per topic. Otherwise, speaking as a watcher and a voter, NOT as a participant, it becomes impossible to have a look to all the photos and enjoy them. With only one pic, a participant chooses only his/her best.

  18. I fully agree with previous comments: too many photos submitted to the contest.
    So I decided NOT to participate until the rules are not changed: max 1 entry per category.
    Ciao Aldo :)

  19. Dear Panoramio Team,
    I have to associate my opinion to all the previous ones. Although now and then I do submit some photos to the contest, I gave up LOOKING at the submitted photos, and of course voting them. Simply too much garbage! There are diamonds, but they are too interspersed with unmeaningful shots.
    You have to limit the number of submission to one per user, or something like this. And another thing: it is a pity that there is no contest for "old" shots! Some of my preferred shots are there since a lot of time!
    Nevertheless, I say as usual: keep up the good work!
    Ciao
    Claudio

  20. Hola Eduardo,
    Tal y como te comunique por correo,en las fotos subidas en los últimos días de abril no me aparece el enlace para poder participar en el concurso.Desconozco los motivos aunque,como te comenté,a otros usuarios pude darles mi voto en fotos de los mismos dias y sacadas al mismo tiempo y en el mismo lugar.


    Ahora me aparece dicho enlace para las del mes de mayo.

    Saludos,

  23. Greetings Eduardo!
    I sent an e-mail to your team suggesting that you start a competition with various catagories...well judjing by the response I am overwhelmed! I do agree with the other suggestions that only one photograph per contestant be submitted as there are some seriously bad photographs being submitted and lots of bad ones at that from the same photographer. One participant has posted twenty or so flower photographs under senery...well he might have a fetish for flowers...who knows?
    In my initial "competion suggestion e-mail" I suggested that Panaramio approach major camera manurfacturers and get them to sponser prizes and weekly tips but strictly controlled that will limit a panoramio member to view a "Canon Weekly Tips - Page" and NOT be diverted away from Panoramio? Charge these sponsors a fortune!

    Congratulations on your creativity!

  24. I don't think it's fair that all the photos I have already posted in the past year,are not eligible for your contest.Should I delete the whole gallery and start over?
    I agree with everyone else,there should be only one pic submitted,per person,but with more catagories.There should be a "flag" button for bad photos along with the "vote" button so the flagged photos can be placed at the back of the gallery and the voted ones on the first page.
    Any viewers of Google Earth should have a link to submit a "Best of G.E."vote when they see a pic they like.

  25. Hola Eduardo:

    Yo envié 2 fotos, y no las veo en ninguna de las categorías.

    Es más, ahora no puedo ver más que una página en dos de las categorías, y dos páginas en las otras dos.

    Greetings Eduardo:

    I send 2 photos to this contest, and I cannot see then anywhere.

    Additionaly, I only can see one page in two categories, and two pages in the rest of them.

    Thanks a lot.
