I'm off work for the holidays so I've had time to upload a bunch this week. All rejected:
Not surprised, but I've been submitting my ribbon winners because I have an aim for this year to get a ribboning image accepted there.
Not surprised - not strong enough.
Not too surprised - a bit dull in retrospect
A bit surprised = I've done well there with nudes, this is probably as good as others. I wonder if the sharpness of her eye was problematical, or the highlight on her left breast.
BTW, if you have a submission ready for 1x, but currently in voting here, how long to most of you wait to post the image for screening? I usually wait for the last day of voting.
I'll usually wait until the last day of voting here. Haven't submitted there for over a year, though. Haven't visited for a long time either - how are things there these days?
I'm all very new to this, but what's special about 1x? Why the desire to have images accepted there? Why this particular website?
"because it's there"? :)
seriously, since the photos there are heavily screened, the quality is uniformly very high, and so the visitors traffic is huge. This site gives your photos unrivaled visibility, I have an average of 20,000 views per image. Compare that to DPC or any other photo sharing sites.

Is it purely for visibility and exposure, or to sell prints?

One translates to the other :). They are planning to introduce print sales, similar to DPCprints I guess, but haven't started that yet. But indirectly it definitely can lead to sales or other opportunities. Happened to me a few times.

Would you be providing a link to another site for prospective viewers to go to purchase a print?
Right. I guess you can put such a link in the details section under every image, if you wish. I usually don't, but there is a link to my website from my profile page.

Have a look for yourself. The work here is nothing short of phenomenal. It's not easy to get published on this site. But a basic membership is free and allows you to submit one image per week.
