How to Submit Images to Club Competitions in My Photo Club

Creative Shots Photo Club uses an online tool called My Photo Club for its competitions. To enter the competition go to the Creative Shots Photo Club home page and click on the grey MEMBERS button, then on the Members Page select the CSPC COMPETITION you wish to upload images for. For information on how to upload your images click on the pink ENTRY HELP button for guidance. The upload form checks to ensure the image is within the correct size requirements but if not, it allows you to fix it and re-upload the image.

You can revisit the competition upload page as often as you need to amend your entries up until the closing date. Note that if you want to move your image to different competition (category), you will need to delete it from the competition and re-upload it to the correct competition. Competition results and the judge’s critique will be announced at the information meeting for that month’s competition.

Our competitions categories include Open Colour, Monochrome, Creative and a different Set Subject each competition. A list of the competition months, set subjects and due dates is below for your information. The competitions are setup in advance so you can upload images whenever you are ready, which is very helpful if you know you will be away.
