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!

My most recent shot taken last weekend.

That one made it into the Premiere Collection Ken, wonderful shot, love the wing. Congratulations!

A greed - a cracking image. Rather like the top one as well.

No new submissions but two of my more recent ones seem to have swapped from the Gallery to the Collection.

With good reason, I would say. That second image is stunning. Alive and surreal.

Not that I think any of my images are in the running for similar treatment, but did you receive any sort of notification when those photos were bumped up to the Collection? I've always wondered how they do that.

Thanks.

Previously you were notified that your image was accepted into the collection as opposed to the gallery. These were different in that they were routinely accepted into the gallery under the new 'system'. However, on browsing the collection I noticed that these two had somehow swapped over from the gallery.

Just got this two pics accepted:





I have a question regarding the upgrade of already accepted pics to higher resolution. On the dashboard it says that should be a Upgrade button "if applicable". In my case there is no Upgrade button. Does it work for anybody or is this more of an announcement of the feature? Any idea what they mean with applicable?

Cool shots!

Upgrade button works for me. You see it when you click on 'Edit' (the pencil button) below a picture that already is accepted. In the edit window there is the additional 'upgrade this photo' button. Once pressed you can then choose the new version.

Thanks for the compliment and the info, Prieni. In my case there is just the 'Delete Photo' button...

I have the upgrade photo option only for those photos that are of the old size, i.e. 600 pixels high. For recent submissions, i.e. those made after the revamp of the PPG, I don't have any upgrade option.
So, do you have old submissions that are only 600 pixels high?

[Davidw0815]

Thanks, Prieni. Now I get it. I misunderstood something. I should read more carefully. All my pics have are 900 px high. I was under the assumption that they want to switch to even higher resolutions now. I didn't know that there was an old page with smaller pics.

Love both the images, Mark. Great job!

One more for me this week. It was in awaiting approval from the 19th until today:



How many of you are going to upgrade? I might as I only have a small amount of photo in there that are the old 600px. I know some of you have many, many in there that are the old style and if I had as many as some of you have, I wouldn't even consider upgrading.
