How did you find DPChallenge? Have your photo skills improved?
I found it while doing a search for may camera "DSC s70" and while going throught the search results I came upon "Sonifo" profile. I couldn't believe what she could do with the camera. Incredibly beautiful pictures. Wow. Go look and you'll see what I mean.
I signed up immediately. Put in my first entry about a month of lurking around the site. Now I'm hooked and carrying my camera everywhere I go.
Noticed a lot of new people on the site.

I missed the Coastal Living contest; thought the deadline was 6-22 but it was 6-02. So I was searching for other contests just out of curiosity and stumbled my way here. Signed up & submitted almost immediately. Since coming here I've dumped all my other forums (except my own) and couldn't be happier... well with a good cam maybe I could.
AlooooHA!

I found it through a google search. I have improved a lot since the beginning. I also changed they kind of photography work I was doing since finding DPC. I don't know if I should say that is cause of DPC or NYIP though. |

I found this site through DCVIEWS.com while looking for my new camera. I'm fairly new,,,,,been lurking awhile,,,,but will be posting to the forums now that I feel a little more comfortable. Now, I find it hard not to read through the forums 50 billion times a day! |

I found it because someone from here posted the link on photographytips.com in late mid-February. :)

I was searching for places to store my pictures online for family viewing and I came across dpchallenge link. I joined and entered my first picture to what I thought was night challenge. Oops...it was the wrong challenge so it got dq'ed. I was hooked from that point on.
It was so much fun back then when most people voted the photo using the whole 1-10 scale. Oh well... I still love this site!!!
You rock Drew and Langdon! |

I came here from a link in the worth1000.com photography forum.
And I've definitely improved since I got here.
I hope...

I found this site (amongst lots of others, though this is one of the few I've stayed with) at //dmoz.org/Arts/Photography/Contests/ . I've learned some here, though I can't spend as much time at photography to learn as I should, so any shortcoming is my own. I usually enjoy watching my score through the week, though lately it's just been a little depressing. The most frustrating part, and I'm sure many agree, is getting a low score and not knowing why, more comments would help at times. |

I was searching Google for an on-line Photo storage site that did not steal your copyright and first born male child for using their site when I found DPChallenge.
Then Comcast took over AT&T Broadband, and more than doubled (Almost tripled) our web storage space so I got the best of both worlds, learning and storage.
And about $3,600.00 Later I'm still here.
