Default Critique Forum Rules

We want everyone to have fun and learn here at DPS. In order to insure that, there are some rules you need to follow when posting in the Critique sections:
  1. Only ONE new critique request per day (24 hour period) for ENTIRE critique section. Choose your image carefully.
  2. Please post only ONE image in the thread. If you need to show more, link it to your set. If you post more than one, the other will be deleted at the moderators discretion.
  3. Please keep images to 740px on the longest side. Mods reserve the right to resize oversize images or delete them until resized. This is easy to put up the proper size if you use flickr. If you feel it is necessary for us to see a larger size, link to it.
  4. We strongly encourage the use of a photosharing site such as flickr, photobucket, zoomr, etc.
  5. Please include the following information, if possible, with your image: EXIF info, type of camera, specific questions (What do you think? is not a specific question). A meaningful title, NOT "Critique Please", will also get your post noticed in a crowded section, as well as any additional information you can give about the conditions in which you shot.
  6. Only post if you are willing to be critiqued - this isn't a place for showing off, but a place for people to suggest how you can improve. If you don't think you need to improve then this might not be the section of our forums for you.

Default Does my account need activation?

When I pressed the button, "New Thread", this site will not allow me. It send me back to signing in. One of the reasons might be that I needed to reactivate my account. Yet, when I try to test reply to a post, it allows me to do so.

What I want to do is ask for a critique on a shot that I have done this last weekend at a fly-in convention. I only want to show one shot, that is all...and I want people to critique me, how to improve my shot next time as the next fly-in convention is in a little bit of two months away.

How can I post a new thread? Can you please help me? Thanks....
Izzy

What does it say on the bottom of your screen in this area?

Critique Forum Rules - Digital Photography School - Mozilla Firefox (Build 2008051202)

If you're still having problems try sending a note to Darren Rowse, the owner of the site and maybe he can help you out. Not sure why it's not working for you
