The POTW rules clearly state that POTW entries must have been taken with a housed digital camera. Please read the rules carefully before you submit an image!
For a contest that accepts both digital and film-based images, check out our Official Photo Contest. The current contest is in the middle of judging, but a new one will be available for participation very soon!

Comment(s):As a purely “for -fun” contest I don't see how an open format allowing any “Original” medium can't be allowed. The “prize” is insignificant; all of the voters get to vote on a tiny 640X480 JPEG so there is no advantage to a film photographer. What I am really suprised about is that there is no seperate catagories for film /digital in your main contest. Just a few thoughts. “An image is an image “, I got the satisfaction out of knowing that my “Image” won. Thank you to all the voters who appreciated my image and not a bunch of technicalities !

Posted by on 05/02 at 09:23 AMI understand your point of view David, that's why we have two contests. one accepts digital and scanned film images and digital camera photos and the other allows only photos taken “with a housed digital camera in conditions that require camera protection.”
Our policy is that images that do not meet the rules for a contest will not be judged - but for this contest, I made a mistake when I closed the contest for judging and left a scanned slide image in for judging. My apologies.
Cheers
