Two images per Competition are allowed per Entry per month, so a total of 14 images may be submitted during a given Competition Year. An entrant may 'make up' for any images not entered earlier in the Competition Year by entering additional images later in the same Competition Year. However, a maximum of two makeup images may be submitted during any month into a given Section competition. These are called Regular Makeups.

Thus, in any given month, an entrant may submit up to four images: a Regular Entry consisting of up to two images and, if available, a Makeup Entry consisting of up to two images.

The exception to this is that an Entrant may submit extra makeups to account for any DQs (DisQualifications) received earlier in the year up to a maximum of an additional 2 per month. These are called Special Makeups.

Note that submitting images ahead of
schedule is not permitted, that is, the number of images submitted year-to-date may not exceed the number of elapsed competition months times two.

Entrants should note that there may not be time in the balance of the Competition Year to make up for several competitions missed earlier in the year.

A judge may not enter makeups in any month that s/he is judging without special approval of the Competition Chair.
