Announcing Daily Awards!

We’re so excited!  We just handed our first Daily Image Awards.  We’ve been wanting to provide daily awards since we launched Pixoto but have been waiting until we had enough submissions each day (I mean who cares if you are the top image submitted today – if there are only 4 other images in the category).  But now – with between 2,000 and 3,000 photos being entered in our contests every day – the daily awards really mean something.

Daily Awards will be given only to the Top 10 images submitted in categories with 50 or more images entered that day.  We’ll hand them out every morning (PST) for the previous day’s entries.

Happy Shooting!
