I know that you can validate your entry before results rather than after.
Problem is I don,t know how ?
Must be here somewhere but failed to find it so far.
Thanks for your help.

Help > Contact Us > General Inquiry (from the menu bar at top of page).

They don't exactly "pre-validate", since there may not be a quorum responding to your inquiry, but an SC will get back to you with an opinion, which is not binding. If actual, binding pre-validation were possible, they'd be slammed with requests and have no time for anything else LOL.

Upload your challenge image the way you normally would. Once it's uploaded, look to the sidebar on the left for instructions and a link in the box labeled "Submit Your Original."

ETA: This probably isn't pre-validation -- more like insurance. But I suspect you can use this feature to upload your image and simplify things in advance when you do formally petition them.

That's for submission of originals if you're gonna be unavailable to respond to a request. Then the second paragraph says this:

"Please note that if you are unsure of the legality of a particular technique or tool, you must contact the SC before the challenge starts via the Contact Us page as originals are not reviewed unless questioned during voting."

If you need a response from SC, do it the way bear suggested.

If you just need to submit your original because you won't be able to after the challenge is over, do it the way bvy suggested. (We don't see them if the original is uploaded unless it is requested).
