    the question is: how will the votes be counted then. Because shots that didn't make it the all 24hrs were also moved

    Where will they be reposted? to the new submission? this would be the door open to many votes for deletion of "repost". And it is not really fair for the ones that made it to the FF already and had a nice score, the second time they might get a lower one (especially because people who dont get the all thing will vote them lower or people who simply remember the votes certain ones had will want them lower...)

    It would be cool if the contests had their own section . . . I don't know how much work that would take . but it would be pretty cool . . .

    Reading the comments Tliff has posted I guess the televisionshots will get an own section, of which a certain percentage makes it to feature films.

    they've got something in mind! can't wait... to me a simple lucious golden frame or something around contest shot would be a great idea!, but i can understand they're taking them out now... i'm in the contest and even i am getting bored with all the tv's! :) prob better to judge them seperately..

    Yeah . . if it's in it's own section and the shots are judged based on the contest criteria as well as the coolness of the shot . . . I think that would be nice . . .

    august 9th or 10th will be TV day :)
    I don't mind if we either reset the votes or form a jury to decide which ones are best.

    the golden frame idea is also quite cool
    PS: all your shots are saved, don't worry

    I dont agree with you bazzy3000, I think having a certain % going through is ok but 2 is not enough and I dont see the problem of having a serie like this, even if it is a lot, going through the FF. So Naut, does this mean they will simply be re-added to the submission or will they go in a special other section? (for this I agree with Siren34, it would really be nice). I think they should just go on votes

    I'm wondering... one of the screenshots I uploaded for the contest vanished from "new submissions" long before the 24 hours were up...? Does this mean it was deleted for some reason or another? Last time I checked it was actually doing good with no deletion votes or anything.

    hey connectiv, all of the contest entries have been put into a hidden queue, and will be released on the 9th at the same time. So your image is safe and you have your upload slots back :)

    It doesn't necessarily have to be a theme.

    It could also be just certain criteria the screenshots have to meet. For example, the task could be to post a screenshot where the main character is visible but cannot be recognized (face doesn't show).

    Or where a certain color / number or whatever is dominant.

    Or to try and find screenshots that fit a certain slogan (can't think of a good one right now)
