Hi,

I can't find the registration details for this one. What should I use when I upload it?

If you don't know the serial, unfortunately you cannot upload it. However an easy search shows this appears to be 165861.

Thanks. For future reference, what 'easy' search did you do?

I found it by searching (Google) VFA-192, which appears to be the squadron, and then 302 to identify the specific aircraft. It lead me to a Flickr page that contained the serial. This may not have been the process dlowwa followed, but I hope this helps

Is something like this acceptable?

Not for here.

Thanks. Just wondered as there are plenty of moon shots or interesting weather with small aircraft silhouettes.

Cheers

Hi,

I tried to add a new reg to the DB but twice its gone to the back of the queue. I added a comment in the Hot Photo both times. Seems odd as normally that works, so, wondering if there is something else I need to do.

Thanks

Any comments in the Hot Photo section should automatically send it to the front of the queue. What is the reg.?

Hi,

I had this rejection

https://www.jetphotos.com/viewqueued_b.php?id=8100500

but since there is no way to know what the 'category wrong or missing' is and the screener did not include it in the rejection, I have no idea which tick box was incorrect. Any chance of shedding light on this one please.

Feedback for screener: If you reject for something as trivial as this, provide info on which category is missing since we can't see the categories once the photo is rejected. Otherwise, all you're going to get is another likely rejection and wasted time -not what you need when you're screening 15,000+ photos.

Cheers

Feedback for photographer: an image will never be rejected for category alone, so make your best effort (or leave a message if you are unsure) and we will correct any issues. I personally fix 20-30 images a day for category that would otherwise could have been rejected. Your image was rejected for the poor crop, not category alone. If the missing category (in this case Night Shot) has been the only issue, it would have been added for you. No need to get worked up over not understanding a category rejection; either ask here for help, or just do your best when uploading and we will fix it for you if there no other issues.

Thanks and I have no issues with the main reason for the rejection. It is clear and in fact, it would be great to hear which better crop to use.

My question was around incorrect boxes ticked and being able to see what it was once it was rejected. In this instance, I asked for help here because I'm still unsure what I should have ticked.

Its not about being worked up, its about trying to do it properly in the first place and the photographer helping where he/she can.
