Re: Are the motives and crop on these photos acceptable?

Yes, only this reason for rejection....

Here's why your photo was rejected:

- Motive
- Personal Message

The Screener left a comment regarding this photo:
"unmotivated crop"

Re: Are the motives and crop on these photos acceptable?

hi, Just had this one rejected for 'unmotivated crop'. What does that mean? - crop not good enough motive for acceptance? I've tried my best to crop it without cutting off the engines nozzles, or any significant part of the aircraft. But surely I've seen plenty of others in the database with a simil...

Re: Why Anet Is Declining

Yes - I posted a few days ago here that my photo was submitted, accepted, but not actually added to database. Was told to submit my photo ID on another thread, which I duly did.

There are only 3 other photos in the database of G-BNLY in this paint scheme, and it only got painted on Sat 9th March, so I thou...

hi guys, I seem to have one of my photos in the upload queue stuck in screening for the last day or so....rather odd because other photos behind it in the queue have already been screened.
