Reminder: Members Receive 40 FREE Contest Credits
Members may submit up to forty (40) images for 2009 WPJA photography contests, regardless of category. This means 40 images total for all
four quarterly contests, not 40 images per contest. Members may NOT purchase any additional credits. Since page ranking on the WPJA site is based on contest
participation and success, every member will be given an equal opportunity to see their listings rise to the top of their home state, additional, and
Destination Wedding listing pages, without an increase in spending.
