You guys are the most reason why SkyPixel are so fantastic.

Waiting for your creation!

OMG THIS IS INSANE ! thanks so much for this contest DJI wow !!!

Hi, great contest! But do we need to get "Likes" on our videos to win? And I uploaded my video yesterday but don't see it in the Gallery of the contest, why?

Hi Judic

1. You might need to get some "likes" to win the Popular Prize or the This week's Popular Prize. But for the Grand Prize, The First/Second/Third prize and the nominated entries, the quantity of "likes" is irrelevant. More details could be found in https://www.skypixel.com/contests/2018/agreement

2. Not every single video/ photo that participated to the contest will be placed in the Gallery. Only some selected videos/photos could get this chance.

Thank you for your attention and participation to the 2018 SKYPIXEL Contest and good luck.

Hello

i tried to send but the address bounced back saying that the recipient doesn't exist.

Thankss ..small question:

"A single entry may only be submitted for a single category. The same entry is not permitted for submission in multiple categories."

3. Each Entrant can submit an unlimited number of Entries;

So we can enter with unlimted entries but each entry has to belong to only one category right?

..Better get working

edit: what about photos that have a staff picked badge on Skypixel, are they eligible for entry?

Great contest!
