Image Quality Tips
- • Export at high quality – Avoid heavy compression that introduces artifacts
- • Don't over-sharpen – Halos and crunchy edges will affect your score
- • Watch for noise – High ISO noise in shadows can impact technical evaluation
- • Proper exposure – Avoid blown highlights and crushed shadows unless intentional
- • Straighten horizons – Unless tilted for artistic effect
Choosing What to Upload
- • Submit your best work – Quality over quantity
- • One strong image beats many weak ones – Curate thoughtfully
- • Choose the right category – This helps the AI provide relevant feedback
