I am trying to upload a new entry, but after I have accepted the legal terms it gives the upload section, but the upload button is greyed out, so I can´t upload a new image..?

edit. There's some 0kb meta image waiting to be submitted that blocks the procedure. I have no idea where it came.

Edit2. Problem is fixed.

Hello,

Once I've submitted a work in progress, can I update that image while I work and advance towards a final image?

Thank you,

No. If it needs to be updated, it is done by the admins. Easiest is to just post a new wip entry..

Hello!

Just heard about this competition, sounds really cool.

Are there any rules on what it has to show? I didn't see any mention so I guess not. Am I allowed to use any 3rd party models that I did't create?

Thanks!

Somewhere in this or other thread in forums I see that, usign commercial models is alowed. As for the theme I guess You have to interpret on Your own (I wouldn't be surptised to see Juges being flexible, but soon we know for sure, after first round results =)

Yes, allowed if the author of the models has granted full commercial rights, or they are bought with full rights. If there reads "for personal use only" they are not allowed.

After using ORC for a couple of intermediary renders I was prepared yesterday to let the final scene to render, but that scene is in queue since then and still no signs that it wants to start.
Were there some limits or quota per user, on the ammount of time we can use the ORC ?
