How voting works
Voting is how the community celebrates work that resonates. Your votes directly shape leaderboards and People's Choice outcomes.

- Vote for entries that tell strong stories — quality over quantity.
- Daily vote caps keep the process fair for everyone.
Tips
- • Read titles and descriptions — context often reveals the artist's intent.
- • AI vs Camera pairs deserve side-by-side comparison before you choose.
- • Sharing a challenge link helps photographers you love get more visibility.
