Pentax Photo Gallery (PPG) entries · **4 Likes**

Hello all! I am going to make this a sticky post in hopes that I can get all of you who have submitted pictures to the Pentax Photo Gallery (PPG) and have had them accepted please post a couple of them here and please link back to your gallery so we can see your work. We have so many incredible photogs on this site I am curious to see what Pentax considers your best work.

Thanks!

Georg, they are great. The squirrel and "Between warm and cold" are my favourites. And I envy you because of the two gulls, because I never had a good bird shot myself, and yours is just beautifull!

Thank you everyone for your votes. And by the way, the F100/f2.8 macro is a seriously scary sharp lens.

Has anyone ever had problems with files being corrupted when trying to upload them to PPG? I've got a pic I'm trying to submit, but it keeps coming out with what looks like bad scan lines or something....big horizontal stripes across the pic. Neither the original RAW pic nor the PP'd JPEG have these stripes in them when I look at them on my computer. I've used this pic several other places, but PPG is the only place I'm having problems with it. I tried starting over from scratch and re-processed the RAW file, but the new version had problems, too. The horizontal lines were in a different place, but the problem was similar. What gives?

Wow. Got 5 photos accepted this week. They were submitted 10 days ago.

No, I never had this problem. If the original file looks ok on your system and not after arrival, I would presume some problem in the file transfer. Perhaps the best thing to do is to contact PPG explaining your problem.

Helge, those pictures are very nice! Did I say welcome allready? Welcome to this forum anyways....

henrx · 03-01-2009, 06:01 AM

Hello everybody.

I got two pictures accepted so far.
Two of my favourites got declined, maybe people thought they were manipulated...which they weren't.

Well, this Photo has got to the Collection of the PENTAX Photo Gallery

Thanks for voting!!!
