Competition has gotten so stiff on Pixoto that it is becoming increasingly hard for many members to win any awards at all.  To try to give our less experienced members a place of their own we have added a new category “Novices Only”.  This category has subcategories which represent the majority of the main categories on Pixoto and are a good place to start on Pixoto before moving on to the “big leagues”

The Rules:

• Critiques/comments by more experienced members are welcome!
• No cash prizes will be awarded
• If you have won a single Top 5% or better award in a main category (not including mobile or photoshop art) you are now in the big leagues so stay out.
• No photoshop art images allowed

Here are the subcategories:

• Abstract
• Flowers & Plants
• Landscapes
• Macro
• Objects & Still Life
• Pets
• Portraits & People
• Sports
• Street & Candid
• Wildlife
