Step #4
Click on “Choose File,” and locate the chosen image on your computer, and double-click the “Upload” button, as shown in figure 4 below. An alternative method of uploading your image is to drag and drop it from your computer directly on to the “choose file” button. Note: if your image shows full screen after this, you missed placing it on the “choose file” button and placed it on the browser window instead. Close that browser window and try again.
Club reps need to enter the photographers’ First and Last Names. (We have your club ID from your login).
For the Individuals’ submissions, we have your name from your login.
If there are themes, you must select them from the dropdown menu boxes next to each image.
