Short answer ? ........ Yes. But only the first image uploaded if there are earlier shots in the database of the previous colours.

Re this point:
Cloning anything in or out of a photo will mean that the photo will be rejected and you are running the risk of your upload privileges being withdrawn or limited for some time

Does this apply to lamp-posts of anything unnecessary to the photograph? If it's easier to clone out a lamp-post rather than spend ages trying to ensure it's vertical (and thereby risk the photo), is it not better to get rid of it?

Also, where can I find information on the New upload limits?

Removing a lamp-post, or any other object such as fence or vehicle, or even filling in part of the frame after rotating an image will lead to an automatic rejection and warning on the first offence, an upload slot reduction on the second, and a complete ban on the third or any further transgressions.

Upload limits have only changed for new uploaders. Older users will not see any changes other than the availability of upload slots being based on number or recent rejections - your available slots will be calculated as follows: your maximum # of upload slots - # of recent rejections = available slots.

Thus, if your maximum # of slots is 20, and you have 6 recent rejections, you will have 14 available slots.

My apologies if its the incorrect thread for the question, but was reading on the manipulations/cloning related information.

My question if i use clone to get rid of the halos (cloning blue sky near the halos), would it also lead to a rejection and its after effects.

Thanks for your time.

Thanks,
Ninad

1) most certainly yes
2) much better solution is to avoid halos in the first place

1.2.9 Date


For photos taken with with a digital camera the exact date is expected to be given. Not submitting the exact date (Month/Day/Year) can lead to a rejection of the photo. Changing of the date is seen as a manipulation of the image.


Providing a less specific date (Month/Year), will be accepted in some cases. For example when a photo has been taken on a photography sensitive location. In such a case, the photographer is expected to provide the reason for not submitting the exact date, in the Comments to Screeners field.

Alex, thanks for the guidelines update on a new thread.

Regarding the quote above, the new website doesn't allow the omission of the specific day. Could this be allowed? This may sound a bit odd to many of you, but under certain circumstances, date can be as sensitive as location, and jetphotos already allows "Undisclosed location" (item 1.2.2).

Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure if this is the correct to place to ask this but, how may I upload in 1600px instead of 1200px?

Thanks!

You can request it through the link on your photographer page, but we generally approve larger limits only if you have a relatively high acceptance ratio. Currently your acceptance rate is quite low, so there is not much chance it would be accepted.

[brianw999]

The maximum size of 1280 px wide is available to you. We raised it in January 2017.

[BartB65]

As a new user, I'd like to ask why my uploads fail if the file is wider than 1280 pixels? My shots are very hi-res, and 1920 seems to be a minimum to me, if you really have to limit the size?
Also, I see images from other users in sizes of 1680 wide, so it's obviously not a "site-wide" limit?

For new uploaders, the size limit is 1280 px. You can request a larger size limit through the link on your photographer page, but we generally approve larger limits only if you have a relatively high acceptance ratio and a certain number of good quality shots.

Thanks for the clarification. Makes no real sense to me though. This way I would have to upload relatively low-res pictures, and after you established that they are indeed good images, you're stuck with the low-res versions of images of which the originals are good enough to be printed billboard-size.

[Alex - Spot-This !]

It's actually just that large size image hard harder to edit and get accepted. People have first to prove that they can get smaller pics accepted before we can allow larger, more difficult size.
