I thought that there wouldn't be a problem submitting something you might already have in your account if it fits the challenge criteria unless in the rules for that specific challenge it specified a specific time-frame.  In my mind, it's like someone announces a competition for national park landscapes and you have something that you entered in a beautiful vistas that also will work.  It's not DPChallenge where the requirements are that it be taken after the challenge is announced.  But maybe that's just my interpretation.

That is how I understand it too. The photo has to fit the description but has no time frame. So you can if you want use older photos.

Yes I agree to what Henrik has to say, you can upload your older photographs in challenges

Well, I dont think there is a thing wrong with older photos unless the challenge is a specific one asking for images to be shot within a time frame..BUT....

I don't know about putting images in that are currently active in the regular voting pool..I am not in favor of that...but I wouldn't necessarily raise a hissy either...

I just think it is most appropriate to enter an original or perhaps an archived image but not an active one..

Only my opinion on the matter...

I think Eric already was saying that it is ok to have the same photo in Challenge and DA-Contest. But I think it is probably the most fun if you go out and shoot a new photo for a challenge.

I have been looking for the rules for the "Challenges" - can someone point me to them? I have one entry in "Motion" but wanted to know if we are restricted to one entry per challenge.

Hi sarah... Eric built in a safeguard to limit entries in a challenge to one image per member. If you try (I just tested the theory) to upload a second image to a challenge, you will receive a screen message which says....

"You already have an entry in that challenge."

Your question was very good. I'm glad to know the answer.
