===== Submitting Entries =====
To upload and submit your photo entry for an LPA contest, you'll need to fill in each field and click "Submit". An explanation of the fields is shown here:
^Field^Description^
|Event|This dropdown list shows all contests which are accepting submissions. Select the contest for which you're submitting an entry.|
|Image Title|Each image must have a title.|
|Select File|Click "Browse" and select the file that you'd like to upload. Make sure that the file is a JPEG image and is between 100 kilobytes and 4 megabytes in size.|
|Division|Select your division, or ranking.|
|Class|Select the class into which the entry will be submitted. //Your chance of winning an award is greatly improved by selecting the most appropriate class for your image.//|
|Location|Enter the location where the photo was taken. This is optional, but may be required for some classes such as "Travel"|
When you click "Submit", you'll see a message indicating that your photo was accepted by the system. If your file was rejected, a message will be displayed indicating the reason.
===== Updating Entries =====
You may now click on the "My Entries" tab to view your entries. Select the event from the dropdown list (the closest upcoming event is selected by default).
Images may be edited or deleted only up to the submission cutoff date for the contest. After that time, no images may be added, deleted or modified.
**Don't see your recent uploads?**
Try refreshing your browser by clicking the "Refresh" or "Reload" button. You can try pressing Control-F5 or Control-R, depending upon your browser and operating system.
=== Editing ===
Click the pencil icon next to your image's thumbnail to get to the editing form. You may change the image title, the division and the class in which the image is entered. You cannot change the filename or the event; if this is necessary, then you should delete the image and re-upload it.
=== Deleting ===
On the "My Entries" tab, click the gray trashcan icon next to your image's thumbnail to delete it. A confirmation box will pop up so that you can confirm that you really want to delete the image.
Deleting an image is permanent! If you delete an image by mistake, then you will need to re-upload it.
