Gabriel Skoropada:
"Since I started taking photography seriously, a little less than 1 year ago, I found on what has now become inspi.re a great community of people willing to share experiences and knowledge. It has helped me on improving my skills far more that I expected." Vid:
"I have been aroused, animated, and imbued with the spirit to do something since discovering inspi.re. That something is picking up my camera and taking photographs come wind, rain or shine. To compete with an eclectic gathering of wonderful, friendly, like minded folk from around the world. They all share their visions and the skills they have learnt to create them."
What makes us different from other online photo contests:
- Competitions are our specialty. We are not yet another online portfolio that runs contests occasionally. Competitions are our core focus and there are dozens of them opening every day.
- The process is democratic. The rankings are always determined by a democratic vote.
- Authors are anonymous during the voting phase. People judge the art, not the person who made it.
- Feedback is on a tit-for-tat basis. Our points system guarantees that members give as much feedback as they receive. This recipe creates a vibrant environment.
- You can find the challenge that suits you best. Members are part of many separate communities that each focus on different crafts, techniques and levels.
- We are tough on cheating. We shut down fake accounts, detect and delete votes that come from abusive sympathy voting and "vote for me" email chains. We ban people who post art they stole from someone else. As a result, all the people you compete against are fair players.
- You can earn money with your art. Artworks you upload can be sold as canvas prints. We handle the manufacturing and shipping, everything is automated. Add a markup to the retail price of the prints and start monetizing your art.
