COMPETITIONS

General Rules

MyPhotoClub Administrative Site

MyPhotoClub is a website that we have chosen to administer our competitions. For many years this has made it easy for us to submit, judge, report results, and print certificates. Unfortunately they were the subject of an intensive cyber attack recently and have been struggling to restore their services. At this point we still don’t have full service restored, but it is still useful for uploading and judging. We are working on alternate ways to share results and print certificates until they either restore services or we chose another competition service provider.
