Want to practice your resizing skills?

Some members may be a little worried about the MyPhotoClub Competition system. There is a demonstration system where you can practice the uploading of resized images to “pretend” competitions and see what happens with your images.

Please use test resized images as these will be deleted from the Demo system every hour on the hour.

Follow this link to Enter a sample resized image .

Let the Competition Team know how you go by posting a comment to this post. Thanks
