Nothing. Not a single win, not a single mention, nothing. I've even suggested regional competitions, so that you wouldn't necessarily always feel that it you against the entire world, but the competitions the way they are now? C'mon. I'm not going to base my exposure on how much money I spend on the site. It's a waste of time. And o yes, of money.
Hi Carl,
Thanks for your feedback. We do understand that when it comes to contests seeing some winners might be frustrating. The judges and many of the voters take their selection process very seriously. Art is in the eye of the beholder and the judges as well as voters each has a different interpretation of the techniques and creativity behind each photo submitted.
We see the contests as a great tool to explore our creativity and expertise behind specific themes. We also have photo challenges, which allows members to create their own photo competitions and attract similar photographers and photography styles of interest.
